Warrant officer (Star Trek)


Intro says it all: "Warrant officer is a conjectural" rank etc. etc. and then proceeds to document (but not really) speculation about what might or might not be the case, but is never actually stated in the show EEMeltonIV 14:08, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete Original research. &mdash; The Gr e at Llamamoo? 17:10, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment, most of Starfleet ranks and insignia and linked articles could use a thorough going over to remove speculation and original research from them. Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 18:45, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * There's been some hashing out on the talk page trying to address this -- in particular, falling back on fanboy website speculation as a "source." Ongoing work in progress. --EEMeltonIV 18:51, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
 * A fansite is a good source for statements like "There is speculation that...", but you can't write a whole article in that form. --Tango 19:40, 24 November 2006 (UTC)


 * Delete The article basically admits that it's all original research. Edgecution 21:39, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Strong delete - zap this one, into the same place as that Starfleet Marines fancruft last week. Pete Fenelon 02:13, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete I have a strong tolerance for fancruft of all kinds, but even I will admit that this crosses the line. Someone should direct the author to the fact that conjectural is a synonym for original research. --Jayron 32  02:52, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. Damnit Jim this is an Encyclopedia, not a fansite.  RFerreira 02:21, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Comment - This isn't Jim's fault. Jecowa 03:18, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * zoooom.... that was the sound of the pop-culture reference flying over Jecowa's head. The preceding snide comment is brought to you in full humor and sarcasm. --Jayron 32  05:08, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Same sound Jecowa's tongue-in-cheek response makes at it slips past Jayron32. :p --EEMeltonIV 05:10, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
