Fortress of Doom
I'm not that familiar with the Captain Proton stuff, as I'm not a big fan of the later seasons of Voyager, but on MA we cite things in the form of (Series: "Episode"). In the case of FoD, you'd probably cite the first appearance for the initial introduction, and if any unique details were mentioned or seen in later episodes, you could cite them after the sentences/paragraphs/sections dealing with them. If it appeared in other episodes but we didn't learn anything new about it, you can add a list of references. --Broik 00:24, 20 Dec 2005 (UTC)
