Wikipedia:Peer review/DNA Resequencer (Stargate)/archive1
Appearance
I wrote most of this article. It's probably my largest contribution to wikipedia. I covers virtualy everything on the topic. It is the most extensive article on the net about the DNA Resequencer. I'm posting it here because I wanted to see what other people thought, especialy since no one has said anything on its talk page. my main questions are: Can people who do not know alot about Stargate understand it? Is it easy to read? Thanks Tobyk777 02:32, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
- You should add the date at which the webpage references were accessed behind the link like so: (accessed January 5, 2006). I'll leave others to comment on the contents as my Stargate knowledge is decidedly sketchy. - Mgm|(talk) 09:52, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
- The date accessed? why? Tobyk777 00:53, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
- Because if the page changes (eg. gets updated, moves servers, etc.) it may be important to know what information used to be there. Often the previous versions can then be tracked on the Wayback Machine so that you can verify it. Confusing Manifestation 01:05, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

- Three things I immediately notice (I'm a fan, so I can't speak to its readability for non-fans). 1: The entire comparison to Priors section, while interesting, is fancruft that should be removed without referencing. 2: There aren't enough non-episode references, and both new and old references should use inline citation. Finally 3: As the FAC of Stargate (device) showed (which I agreed with there), you should find at least some information on the construction of the actual prop (especially the device in "Metamorphosis").

- The comparison was added as a sort of analysis. If more people agree I will remove it. The non-episode refrences are the only ones in existence. I couldn't find any more than those on the entire web. Also, where would I find info on the prop? Tobyk777 19:56, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
- Surely there are books out there on Stargate. Also, is the DNA Resequencer mentioned in any of the Stargate novels? As for the prop, I don't know, I'd listen to the episode commentary (I don't remember if they discuss it at all) and check with the guy working on Stargate (device).
