Standing over an operating table.

edit

Ok, so my edit was reverted, with the rationale of "The reason for deleting does not bear on the content; this is simply making connections, not stating a direct source of inspiration"

To expand on my reason for removing the comment of "bears striking likeness to a classic scene from the 1979 Ridley Scott/Sigourney Weaver film, Alien."

  • As stated it's pure coincidence that the scene looks like one from a later film. To made mention of it implies intent where there is none.
  • Why is it notable to mention this? Where is the source to back up the claim?
  • It's NPOV to state "classic scene" - where is the source to back this up? Otherwise it's just yet another medical scene on a gurney - and as I point out these are hardly rare in science fiction.

I agree that this sort of comment needs a source; we need a secondary source commenting on it to make it OK to include it in the article. Without a source I agree it should be removed. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 09:49, 30 October 2017 (UTC)Reply
