- Lead: "Some of the standing sets were redressed to appear as the USS Columbia" -- I believe there was no "USS"
- "After the Enterprise returns to Earth, Commander Tucker (Connor Trinneer) is preparing for his transfer to the Columbia." -- This sounds like Enterprise is returning to Earth after something. What? Also, you might want to note that Colombia is a new ship, to explain why he'd be transferring to it.
- I assume the Klingon in the photo in "Production" is a cosplay? If so that should be noted.
- The source of the TOS Klingons' appearance should be noted. I believe the story is the original Klingons appeared as they did for budget reasons, and later producers told people to "imagine" that the old Klingons look like the new ones do. Then they decided to do this story because "Blood Oath" and "Trials and Tribble-ations" created conflicting continuity.
- I have a Gross/Altman behind the scenes books that covers the original series and the first five seasons of TNG. I'm sure there must be a reference to this in there, so let me check it tonight and I'll see if I can add that to the article. Miyagawa (talk) 12:43, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
- Finally checked it. I've added in the budget part from the production website, and also added the origins of the look - its a rather surprising story that apparently the makeup artist at the time didn't know what to do and so asked the actor what he fancied being done up as. The Romulan line is from the same page, but I can add a direct citation after it if you think someone might try to slip a cite needed tag in there. Miyagawa (talk) 10:19, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
- The lead notes this episode is considered one of the best, but I don't see anything in "Reception" specifically noting this.
- Duplicate links check out (I fixed one). External links look good, as do disambig links.
- I see no problems with neutrality or stability.
Great work! Passing the article for GA. —Ed!(talk) 11:35, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
