Does anyone else think that Wikipedia is run by the 'few' (in relative terms), who basically don't appreciate anyone touching 'their' articles? See below

Star Trek
I think no matter what, we should just take Roberto Orci's word for it. If the reader understands he, an almighty Hollywood writer, has researched it, there's no need to name what book he did read. That could also breach WP:NOR, because he could have got that idea from some other part of the franchise. Alientraveller (talk) 22:24, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Memory Alpha is a wiki: it is not written by professionals. It should not be cited per WP:RS. Now the other editor's point was that the mention of the book was too in-universe: in any case, we know the writer has looked to canon to settle the idea of the Enterprise being built on Earth.

 * I don't spent a lot of time on Trek articles, but I did remove the links from that article to set an example that other more Trek-based editors can follow. I think what that other editor meant by "in-universe" was a comparison to a book, when the real-world information of Orci studying these was fine enough.

 * The information on canon is included within the writng section. We placed the info on the trailer in marketing because we don't even know if the footage is in the film. Alientraveller (talk) 22:48, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
