[edit] Does Icheb have nanoprobes?

Background information item about Seven's "momentary forgetfulness" looks like nitpickery, in the absence of any evidence that Icheb personally, or all Borg generally, have nanoprobes. Seven may not be the only Borg who has nanoprobes, but can anyone cite evidence that she's not the only VOY crewmember? And let's not count Neelix. Anyway, I'll remove it shortly.

Good point: icheb was an unfinished drone and no longer has his cortical node, so it seems more than plausible that either he can't emit nanoprobes.

[edit] Friendship One/1

Shran mentioned in the latest edit that this article doesn't really need to have a qualifier, since the probe is called Friendship 1, with the number. Shall I go ahead and (1) get rid of the disamb. page, (2) move FO(e) to FO, and (3) ensure all links point to the correct locations? - TerranRich 12:31, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Some portions of the move will need to be done by an admin. I'd suggest as a first step, simply moving the FO to F1, and then slowly working through the links to that. When that's done, the FO(e) article can be moved (and rd deleted) by an admin, and we're good to go. I'll move FO to F1 for the moment, so that the link shifting process can begin. -- Sulfur 00:50, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

As an aside... the move has been done now. The links to the FO(e) page are primarily (if not completely) using the eplk template, which means that they'll flop over automatically. It's the other 2-3 links that'll be the annoying ones to find. -- Sulfur 01:00, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

So, there were 23 links to FO(e) directly that have all been converted to eplks (or in the case of five of them, corrected because they can't use the eplk template). I also updated the most wanted links, because FO(e) will show up on there tonight. :) -- Sulfur 02:05, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] PNA

Act structure is wrong - missing a fifth act. -- Michael Warren | Talk 21:24, 1 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "Many fans ..."

Removed part of background note:

Prior to this episode, he had not been seen since the first season. Many fans have mistaken Hogan for him, and thought he had died.

The first sentence is just wrong, as the rest of the note (the part I didn't remove) mentions his appearances in "Fury" and "Relativity." The second sentence is just plain annoying, as is any uncited reference to "many fans" think or believe or whatever. - Bridge 05:40, 9 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Resemblance

• This episode bears a striking resemblance to a 1975 episode of Space: 1999 ironically entitled "Voyager's Return" about an unmanned Earth space probe sent out many years earlier, which caused destruction on an alien world (guest starring Jeremy Kemp).

I've removed this note. We can't list any and all "resemblances" to other shows and episodes, no matter how striking individual editors think they are, unless we can cite that it was intentional. Otherwise, the episode pages will be clogged with these. --OuroborosCobra ^talk 16:48, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Year

The official star trek.com website gives the year for this episode as 2378, not 2377. Shouldn't we go with that? --70.176.184.44 00:46, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

No. The stardate dictates 2377. We go with that. :) -- sulfur 01:06, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I was watching this episode recently. In it, Tom Paris tells Brin that B'Elanna is going to give birth to their child in a couple of months. Since "Homestead" is set on April 2378, shortly before "Endgame", could we infer that "Friendship One" takes place in '78? --Delta2373 01:10, October 4, 2009 (UTC)

I caught that to, and obviously the stardates got screwed up somewhere since Homestead - Endgame retains 2377 stardates in 2378. I think Friendship One - Endgame are '78 and everything before Friendship one is '77, and the stardates just got screwed the same way in Homestead. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.176.184.44 (talk).
