Season 2

At the end of season 1, the X-Files department is discontinued and "Deep Throat", Mulder's information source, killed. The first two episodes of season 2 sees two weird happenings, so it is decided to revive the X-Files department. Episode 3 is the first appearance of "The Lone Gunmen" when Mulder goes to them for help. They have helped him before.(5.8.190.86 (talk) 19:11, 17 September 2017 (UTC))

I believe you. What I'm referring to is a citation that backs up this statement. This page is a good article, meaning that, among other things, everything has been cited with an inline source. You'll notice that in "Opening sequence", every mention of a unique tagline is backed up with a footnote. Please add one of these in before you add additional taglines.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 14:11, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
But if a tagline isn't mentioned in books or sites? Source are episodes themselves. The final book you have mentioned in footnotes was published in 2001. There is no source. Only episodes themselves. This kind of information almost always haven't soirce except tv series itself. Lado85 (talk) 14:39, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
Not necessarily. The last citation is from Indiewire. Additionally, you can use the episode itself, but you need to use the cite episode template.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 16:05, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
