[edit] Television shows not directly Star Trek related

Please do not create articles for such shows as "ReBoot", because, despite being parodies or tributes to Star Trek, they are not Star Trek related. In addition to this, we already cover them all in as much detail as we desire on Star Trek parodies and pop culture references (television). This is not Wikipedia, where these articles might be welcomed. Our goal for these is to have a minimum of information, and then point people toward a more detailed source. Something we already have done for "ReBoot".

Please keep this in mind when creating articles in the future. -- Sulfur 15:28, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Romulus

It was destroyed in the prime timeline, not the alternate one. – 79.68.134.208 23:38, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Alternate Timeline

To be clear, the destruction of Romulus is NOT in the alternate timeline. It occurs in the normal flow of events with the original Kirk, Picard, DS9, every single Star Trek episode/film up until the new one. The alternate timeline was created AFTER the destruction of Romulus when Nero went back in time.- JustPhil 23:39, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Take it to the talk page and stop adding it back. You're wrong. Simple as that. If you go back in time you change the future of that timeline not the timeline you went back in time from. — Morder 23:52, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

I have protected the Romulus page. When the protection is over, discuss the issue first before making changes to the article. In this case, the reason the article is that way has been explained to you.--31dot 00:11, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Just so we're clear: it is very clearly established in the film, via Prime Spock's mindmeld with Alternate Kirk, that the destruction of Romulus took place in the time Prime Spock is from. The supernova occurred in 2387 of the prime timeline and destroyed Romulus in 2387 of the prime timeline. Spock then created a black hole to consume the supernova before it destroyed other planets, and he and Nero ended up being pulled into the black hole. The timeline from which Spock and Nero originate is the original timeline, the prime timeline, in which TOS, TNG, etc. is set. Nero was the first to emerge from the black hole, in the year 2233, and his actions in retaliation for the destruction of Romulus in the prime timeline are what create the alternate reality. These are indisputable facts from the movie and cannot be changed. I'm sorry if you don't like the idea that the prime Romulus was destroyed, but the fact is, it was. If you can't handle it, you can always take comfort in the fact that it's just a movie. But we cannot allow you to continue adding incorrect articles. I hope you can understand this. --From Andoria with Love 01:07, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Talk Pages

In case you're unaware of it here is the link that explains how talk pages work. — Morder 22:00, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm done with trying to help you. Good luck in editing other sites since you don't seem to follow procedures here. — Morder 22:17, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Archive don't delete. Create user talk:Preator/archive and paste what you are removing there instead and we will quit reverting you. --Alan 22:47, 19 May 2009 (UTC)

Do you actually try reading this page, and the comments left here? The instructions here are not difficult. --OuroborosCobra ^talk 16:48, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Comments

Preator, I've been on Wikis for a long time and I can say that talk pages are not meant for insulting comments. We're trying to help you use Memory Alpha.- JustPhil 14:40, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
