Star Trek maintenance categories Edit

In order to help readers locate material related to Star Trek, I plan to tag each article with a hidden category (so it will not appear on the article itself), and then link that category on the main page. The intended structure is:

• Category:Memory Alpha articles related to Star Trek (film) for in-universe articles
  • Category:Memory Alpha articles related to Star Trek (film) production for realworld articles

I was intended to do this unilaterally, but thought I should get some opinions as to the name, etc. This is urgent, as I plan to have the categories in place before the lockdown. -- Michael Warren | Talk 11:57, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Works for me. -- Cid Highwind 16:20, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Need for a Separate Abrams Continuity Starfleet Page? Edit

Although the movie doesn't go into great detail about it, the Starfleet of the new timeline/reality seems to be very different from its prime timeline/reality equivalent. When he first meets Kirk, Captain Pike describes Starfleet as "a humanitarian and peacekeeping armada." While the prime Starfleet engaged in these sorts of missions, they were not its most important activities (which, of course, were exploration, diplomacy, and defense); Pike's choice of definition implies something that is not nearly on the same scale as its prime counterpart. Also, Pike asks Kirk if he had ever heard of Starfleet. If Starfleet had been the most important quasi-military organization for all the member worlds of the Federation (the way the US military is the most important military organization for all fifty states in the country, and the way Starfleet seems very much to be in the prime timeline/reality), it would have been a ridiculous question to ask. Please discuss! --BlueResistance 20:32, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

This discussion has already been started at Talk:Starfleet (where it belongs) - please keep it in one place! -- Cid Highwind 20:36, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Sorry to have offended you, but no one was responding over there. Besides, this is a somewhat appropriate place for the question--it is relevant to the movie. --BlueResistance 04:13, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Into Darkness Edit

I don't think we should these again, as they're messy (still cleaning up the ones from film 11), weren't fully used (most pages that should have been in them weren't, which makes you think about how bad it could have been for the cleanup), redundant due to the portals (and the fewer number of pages that need to be edited to maintain a list, the better), and poorly named (since this was created before the full title was known). All of that makes these not worth the trouble in my book. - Archduk3 04:08, May 3, 2013 (UTC)
