The description at the beginning of the article says that the episode "provides closure for the character of River Song". But I'm not so sure. We still haven't seen the Doctor tell her his name. She says during the conference call that she "made him" and it "took awhile". And right before they parted ways at the end, she said "til the next time". So that doesn't sound like closure to me. Unless we're talking about closure from ''her'' perspective only.

: All of what you say is true, but I think that what it means is that her physical timeline seems to have come to an end. Unless she somehow get downloaded out of the CAL data core, her story is ended aside from, perhaps, appearances through the psychic links with Clara and the Doctor. So any depictions of how she made the Doctor reveal his name, or explanations of why she said "till the next time," are most likely going to be shown in flashback style or will only consist of her appearing as an echo.
