I'll take this one on unless there are any objections. Midnightblueowl (talk) 12:00, 9 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Comments:

Some of the prose currently assumes too much prior knowledge of the Star Trek universe. For instance, in the Plot section we refer to the Enterprise without stating what it is, we refer to Vulcan without stating that it is a planet, nor that it is Spock's homeworld. The Enterprise is mentioned for a second time in that section yet not italicised. Have a read through and make some alterations of this nature.

Thanks for taking on this review. I've gone through the plot and modified it to make it clearer (i.e. starship Enterprise and stating that Spock was returning to his homeworld, Vulcan, etc). Also fixed those italics. Miyagawa (talk) 13:47, 10 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
@Miyagawa: Thank you; I'm now happy to pass this. As a suggestion however, I would recommend that you use Webcite or some such site in order to archive the links used in this article. That way, even if the original websites succumb to link rot, we still have a copy of the web pages that we can cite in the article. Midnightblueowl (talk) 16:35, 10 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
That's a very good idea. I'll go do that now. Thanks again for reviewing. Miyagawa (talk) 21:16, 10 December 2015 (UTC)Reply
