• ... that the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Affliction" explains why Klingons look different in the original series compared to the movies and later series?

• Alt1:... that 18 years after failing to be cast as Worf in Star Trek: The Next Generation, James Avery was finally cast as a Klingon in the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Affliction"?
• Alt2:... that James Avery, better known as Uncle Phil from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, appeared as a Klingon in the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Affliction"? Miyagawa (talk) 23:31, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Expansion is fine; not a stub; hooks are fine (my own preference is for the original hook, I'm not 'into' Star Trek and that's the one that drew my attention!).

I fixed a couple of minor contractions - there are just a couple of very minor points I can't fix: a DAB link for ABC, I don't know which ABC it is; also should 'augment' read 'augmented'? Otherwise it looks good to me but as this is the first time I've tried reviewing an article for DYK I'd appreciate someone else also checking......thanks!

I've fixed the dab link to American Broadcasting Company. The augment thing is Star Trek lingo that was mostly introduced earlier in the season with the episode "Borderland". Basically they're the genetically engineered humans such as Khan from Star Trek II. My favourite hook is the first, with the second alt as a backup as they're less Star Trek centric and should grab a wider audience. Miyagawa (talk) 10:12, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I thought it might be something like that (Trekkie technical, I'm not!)

Looks fine to me now. SagaciousPhil - Chat 10:19, 20 January 2013 (UTC)
