OK, obviously a lot of work and thought was given to this sub-page, and respect for that. This is a dedicated fan work.

But don't forget that Shout-Out must be intentional. There is no use of listing every single possible connection that comes to the viewers' minds.

Also the formatting and Example Indentation needs to be followed. Please no ugly-ish formatting like “‘Whipping Post’” for a song name. Titles of songs and short stories are in double quotes only, like this: "Whipping Post".

Quotes are started like this:

Mulder: (what he said)

Not like this:

Mulder: (Bla Bla Bla)

Repetitive links to Foreign Language Title or Tuckerization are rather annoying.

Is there really a need to define what "Home" means, and other rather obvious episode titles?

Also, there are some entries confusing Shout-Out with Mythology Gag and Continuity Nod.

Deleted this entry:

This is very nice, but The Big Bang Theory wasn't even out yet. There is no way this is a Shout Out.
