plural links

Hi there! To create a link to a singular but have it appear as a plural simply add s right after the link. For instance,

[[Klingon]]s

Will give you Klingons.

If you have any questions feel free to ask. –Rich^{(talk page)} aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman 09:32, 3 June 2014 (CDT)

Hey Rich! Thanks for the hint. I'll keep that in mind.

Glad to help! Also, unfortunately, the way the wiki messaging system works, you have to actually leave your message on the other person's talk page, not your own, in order for them to see they got a response (which of course leads to a lot of flipping between pages). You can also sign your messages by leaving four tildes ~~~~. –Rich^{(talk page)} aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman 16:18, 3 June 2014 (CDT)

medical templates

Hi there! You are right that according to canon, nurses and counselors are part of Starfleet Medical. However the Starfleet Medical Academy is simply the post undergraduate medical school associated with Starfleet Medical and Starfleet Academy to train medical officers earning a medical doctorate. Nurses and counselors presumedly would earn their undergraduate degrees just like everyone else through the Academy main campus and receive the same undergrad diploma. I know it's a bit confusing but when Bashir talked about the Medical Academy on the show, it was in reference to his medical school training.

Speaking of which, I did create a new nursing major. Please feel free to flesh it out and add course descriptions etc or even add more courses or change them around a bit. The only thing I've noticed is on Dials page there are some medical officer courses such as the clinical rotations thrown in. Again nurses and other undergraduate students would not usually be taking these medical school courses.

Finally I'd like to invite you to the Wiki Ops team. Please send a PM on the forums with your contact info if you are interested! ◄ Rich^{(talk page)} aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman ♫ 21:02, 27 June 2014 (CDT)
