 * I don't believe it was revealed during the episode, and the makeup doesn't seem unique to any other identified alien species. -- SmokeDetector47 // talk 08:11, 22 May 2005 (UTC)

Charles Maturin
The naming of pretty much every character in is covered in the Star Trek: The Next Generation Companion, but there's no mention of Maturin.– Cleanse 12:52, 27 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Given the episodes subject matter, it would seem to be unlikely for the name to be a coincidence. – The King In Shreds And Tatters 19:04, October 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * There needs to be proof of it, no matter how likely it is, as we do not speculate.--31dot 20:44, October 10, 2009 (UTC)

No citation has turned up in half a year, so I removed the note:
