Well I don't see GR kicking off his Gary-stu.
What does defeat mean to you?

Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

It's Wikipedia, it's not exactly a great source.

I once considered going on an edit spree with the wikipedia Trek stuff. There was a LOT of nonsense on the Trek related articles there, especially the ship ones. And there's a big argument in the talk pages about what to include, what's canon and not, all that kind of thing.

In the end I decided I couldn't be bothered. And besides, why should I spend my time on improving a competitor's website?!

Fixed it for you.

It don't say Data commanded the E-J, it says he commanded the E-F according to the novel Imzadi.

Since we're picking on wiki..............did anyone else see the "crew" of the Prometheus? The stuff they put on there is staggering!!! We COULD submit our ships and characters and get posted.

Yes, we could - Wikipedia is a wiki, after all.

Corrected. What do you guys think? I'd like to see an entry for the Paladin, the Daystrom, the Ravage, and the Valkirye. With a crew breakdown as well................what do you guys think?

Meh. Those designs are primarily for internal use, and don't really bear on what's been on the show. I don't see a wiki as a place for fan creations, no matter how well-done.

Yeah, but don't you think it may draw people to the site?
