DS17 nav template

Wallace is linked as it was posted to the station, it's crew were on dual assignment as we were posted to both Wallace & DS17 and regularly had missions (not just shore leave) on the station. If Triumphant is the same then very well but if not then either leave it in the Ithassa Region bit and off the DS17 menu OR add Indy-A and maybe Ursa Major too... - Jay^Talk 04:11, 29 June 2007 (CDT)

As both Admiral Anassasi and Hollis have said, Deep Space 17 serves the Ithassa Fleet (and vice versa). I think the best course is to just change the wording of the text from craft assigned to starship support, as this better reflects the joint and collaborative voices of several crews instead of just one, as it should be. ;-) DCody 19:48, 29 June 2007 (CDT)

That's my fault, I wrote the Wallace and DS17 pages as one section at first about two years ago. - Jay^Talk 04:28, 2 July 2007 (CDT)

Thank you for the responses. I will try and get those fixed. I am still working on learning how to use Wikki properly. I have also asked various people about how to do things when I was having problems trying to do any changes or additions. Still working on getting them all fixed. If I missed something just tell me and I will get to it. Again thank you for the input. Canreb July 1, CANADA DAY, 2007

Re: Template:Asterospolis

Normally, the images used in nav templates are 175px x 90px. Just keeps a nice uniformity to all of them, whenever possible. Just an FYI... --Wolf /^{talk page} 00:17, 2 July 2007 (CDT)

Thanks for letting me know. I will keep that in mind for the future. If I can find an asteroid picture the right size I will replace it. Canreb 4 July 2007,

Phaelasour & Ilbera species

Were these species shown, mentioned, or referred to on a Star Trek episode or movie? If not, then they should not be listed in the "restricted" category. Instead, until they are reviewed and approved, they need to be listed in the "Non-Reviewed Species" and the Non-Canon Species categories. For an example, see Adanni. --Wolf /^{talk page} 21:33, 4 August 2007 (CDT)

I just added some details to the Phaelasour listing. I have no idea about them. The same goes for the Ilbera who were mentioned by my First Officer. I will change them. Canreb

To leave the timestamp, type 4 tildes (e.g. ~~~~). It'll also provide a link to profile, and save you typing it all out manually ;) Jay^Talk 19:32, 9 August 2007 (CDT)

Break tags are not necessary in most cases

I noticed that you're using a lot of <br> tags in your markup. You'd be better off, instead, using bullet points. Also, instead of just bolding section headings, use the subheadings marketup. You can see examples of both these changes, here. --Wolf /^{talk page} 16:03, 3 September 2007 (CDT)

Devitt, Darla

Just curious but does the USS Berlin mean the same ship as the Excelsior class vessel named in TNG? If not then feel free to remove the link. Also, naming convention for pages is surname first, then given name(s). - Lt.JG Salak^Talk 11:09, 19 October 2007 (CDT)

I used the name because I had read of it in one of the novels, so it probally is the same ship as that from the show. Also I will try and remember to do the names in the right order. Canreb Canreb 15:37, 19 October 2007 (CDT)

Talk:Blank NPC page

I left a note on the above linked talk page a while ago. If it's possible for the quiery to be answered? The group has various existing templates for PC's, and it wouldn't be too hard to adjust the page to work in the same way. - Lt.JG Salak^Talk 05:43, 29 October 2007 (CDT)

I have seen some of them.... I just added the blank one to the master crew list at the bottom of the list to make it easier for me or any other member of the crew who might want to use it to find it. canreb Canreb 20:31, 5 November 2007 (CST)
- Well you can easily paste the text of one of the templates onto a page by typing, for example {{subst:Bioadvanced}}, which would give you the text of Template:Bioadvanced. (subst being short for substitute, the {{}} bit around the text being code to insert a template, much as [[]] is the code for a link) Just thought that might be simpler and could be easily rolled out across the fleet too. - Lt.JG Salak^Talk 13:30, 6 November 2007 (CST)
- Thanks.. I am still learning how to do things within the Wikki environment... a lot a trial and error... hopefully the finished product is not to shabby...Canreb 20:47, 6 November 2007 (CST)

Naming pages properly

Hello. Thank you for taking such an interest in the wiki. However, I do need you to please carefully review the Naming pages properly article. Some of your page names are not specific enough, such as Current Crew Roster, and will have to be moved. Thanks! --Wolf /^{talk page} 19:28, 7 January 2008 (CST)

Naming pages properly:warning part II

Hey, just a reminder about naming pages properly (see above). -Varaan 12:27, 10 January 2008 (CST)

MA content

When creating articles, unless you are adding something with details specific to our SB118 universe, just link to the appropriate Memory Alpha article.

Eagle nav

I've removed a chunk of links as I thought they'd belong better on the as yet unwritten deck listings page. The menu was reading as a long, unbroken list and didn't look too good. If you really feel they should go on there then I'd suggest indenting them or breaking the list up into more section seperated by horizontal lines (----). I've also corrected a few links so that they point to where the Eagles pages should be instead of general disambiguation pages. - Lt.JG Salak^Talk 10:06, 11 January 2008 (CST)

Eagle History

Just a thought - there's a not-quite-canon reference from an old roleplay sourcebook that mentions a USS Eagle, Constitution-class, as being crewed entirely by Andorians around the time of TOS. If you wanted to add it to past ships called 'Eagle' there's some info on Memory Alpha. Hutch 16:09, 13 February 2008 (CST)

*holds hands up* I'm largely to blame for the Previous ships called Eagle page, it's effectively a load of info dumped there and needs a clean up. I put what I could find up about the Eagle a year or two ago, long before it was actually recommissioned. A lot of it is from Wikipedia, with a bit from MA but there might be more at each now. If you want to try tidy it up, try to make each entry brief, we don't want redundancy. Wikipedia has info for ships named USS Eagle and HMS Eagle, there might be ships with other prefixes I've forgotten. You can link to wikipedia by typing wp: in front of a link name, e.g. wp:USS Eagle, with wp replaced with ma for Memory Alpha. Add a vertical bar | at the end of the link to lose the prefix, e.g. USS Eagle. On later inspection, the wiki will automatically add the text minus the prefix to the link after the line. - Lt. Salak^Talk 17:56, 13 February 2008 (CST)

Eagle

1: The main ship page could do with a pic. If you have MSN (burwellian AT hotmail DOT co DOT uk) or YIM (burwellian), I have a folder of pics I managed to get off Star Trek Australia just before it went down so might be able to help there. ^{Done - Lt. Salak^Talk 21:32, 12 March 2008 (CDT)}

2: The Previous ships called Eagle page needs work. I started it ages ago, whilst Eagle was still an unused ship, but the blurb needs editing down (ideally to a paragraph a ship), plus I've only put stuff on 3 of the Royal Navy's Eagles on there. Follow the link at the bottom and you'll find there have so far been a lot more than 3... 18 if I'm not mistaken. It might be worth picking and choosing the most prestigeous of ships as fitting over 20 ships onto one page could be interesting. As it's your ship and you seem an active editor, I thought you might want to pick up that baton, or know someone else who will :) - Lt. Salak ^Talk 14:33, 6 March 2008 (CST)

Eagle

Mission Archive looks good now it's been split up a bit under headers. I've made a comment on the Eagle talk page regarding the relevence of the content of the main article. - Lt. Salak ^Talk 18:06, 14 March 2008 (CDT)

Oh, I undid your edits to Intrepid class as this is a wiki mainly for material that is canon only to us. Practically all the info you added to it seemed canon and thus is likely on the MA page (which by rule is linked from the ship nav). We don't want to duplicate what's on Memory Alpha really. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 18:41, 14 March 2008 (CDT)

I moved the stuff like you asked... just thought it would be of use at the Intrepid Class spot I put it... since that location gives next to no info regarding that class... my mistake... sorry Canreb 19:13, 14 March 2008 (CDT)

It's no prob. Whole point of that page is just to tell us what ships in the fleet are of that class really. For canon stuff, always best to link to Memory Alpha. - Lt. Salak

Sector

a) Does the Sector have a proper name? The Carraya Sector? Sector 1034? Something like that? b) Have you seen Image:Starbase118-map.jpg which could influence the development of the region? - Lt. Salak ^Talk 13:15, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

Hello... I have a copy of the map in front of me that I had printed out and enlarged... Eventually I will post the map with the stars named that I have done up systems for...

As for a Sector name... I thought Starbase 118... after all it is the most important item in this sector... it is the main base for the game... and it is almost in the center of the sector...

Go to the new page I made called Space Sector - Starbase 118 - I linked all the systems I have done work on to it so far... Canreb 13:20, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

I enlarged the map to make it easier to measure distance for the info added to the different pages... also so I could add the names to the page and then post it... just the 1 sector by it self... Canreb 13:22, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

Okay. Surely the sector would have been known and named before an important base like SB118 would have been built there though? ;) - Lt. Salak

^Talk 13:27, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

Whilst on the subject, have you any source for where you got the sector co-ord layout? It seems to lack a third dimension, meaning anything at those co-ord covers an infinite vertical distance and is fairly useless. Given a sector is 20ly x 20ly x 20ly, it could mean any one of a large number of sectors. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 13:31, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

I used both the star charts located on this wikki and from the book Star Trek Star Charts - The complete Atlas of Star Trek by Geoffrey Mandel I need to add the third dimension factor for each system and item in Space Sector - Starbase 118 - I had been playing around with also calling the sector Trinity due to it being the juction point of 3 major space power's... I was thinking I would plot the exact location of each item useing the 3 different directions... with a - or + for the 3rd dimension... - being down and + being up... Canreb 13:50, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

The one referance I have been useing plus the book above describes space as a HUGE disk like shape... but with some depth... in this case either plus 10 lightyears or minus 10 lightyears depending on it's location either above or below the center line... the major part of the plate... or do we just want to list it as just from bottom to top ot top to bottom...Canreb 13:56, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

I wanted some input and suggestions on how to handle... list 3 dimensional locations... I figure my system has to match what this group wants to use... then I could add it at the Space Sector page under the location description of each item in the sector... Let me know what system YOU want me to use... that way it will be useful and make sense... Canreb 14:03, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

Academy Library#Flight Control (Navigation) might be of use. What's there wasn't put up by me but was familiar to me before I joined the group too. On the Navigating a starship page, the Galactic Co-ords refer to XYZ, where X would be the border between Alpha & Gamma or Beta & Delta. Y would be the border between Alpha & Beta or Gamma & Delta. Z would be perpendicular to both running vertically. The Sun is 26,000 ± 1400 light-years from the Galactic Centre. We're a barred spiral galaxy by the way. And I can't think off hand of an issue with "Trinity sector". - Lt. Salak

^Talk 14:34, 19 March 2008 (EDT)

To delete a page, tag it with {{delete}} and one of the sysops will do it. It's a sysop-only tool. Also, to move things, please either hit the move tab at the top of the page or call in a sysop to do it. That way, we don't lose the page history. - Lt. Salak

Trinity sector

Hope you like the new menu. I've begun an overhaul of the Cart'hen system pages already, with the new Trinity Sector template, a Cart'hen system nav (top left), etc. The system page is an overview, the situation affecting the whole system, with planet stats kept to planet pages. I'd hope a similar overhaul could be done with the sector page such that it covers info regarding politics, stellar cartography of the sector, etc... with it becoming less of a list. Opinion? - Lt. Salak ^Talk 10:44, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

Sounds good to me... I am just adding a few details and doing the race pages for the Rothians... then I will do it for the Cart'hen and the Raskor... I take it the over all work will be useful... and if so would another sector be of use?? Canreb 10:48, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

Another sector? If your crew want to prep a neighbouring sector or something then fine, that's up to the lot of you as to whether you think it might be needed. The overall work probably will be useful in future, though the more it's all fleshed out now, the less there is to create in sims when you visit these places ;) Also, did you see my further comment regarding the Ophiucus 70 problem yet? After further thought, that name isn't really appropriate to the area. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 10:54, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

As to Trinity and Acamar sectors... what star names would be found in them... this way I don't mess up again as with Ophiuchus... also I LOVE the Trinity sector nav window... but personnaly I like the star system basic info all on one page with links to any planet with more than basic info...the pre Cart'hen look... but that is just me... I find it easier to work with... I will try and finish Trinity soon... other than the 3 stars in Fed space with no info what else would you like to see??? Canreb 13:57, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

Also is it Ok to name the sector with the other half of the Azure Nebula... the sector to the left of Trinity = Acamar??? Canreb 14:12, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

Replied individually to both on Talk:Trinity Sector. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 14:38, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

Looking at the star chart for Trinity sector I see I have 3 more stars in Fed controled space... I was considering calling them Corvus #???, Sigma Corvus and maybe Azure #??... numbers still to be determined... these OK?? Canreb 15:45, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

Sigma Corvus should grammatically be Sigma Corvi. A quick google search seems to show no stars by either name. The constellation's close enough for it to be believable. Corvus ?? will also be Corvi ??. Azure isn't a constellation name so play with that name to your hearts content :) For the record, none of the stars in Corvus are above magnitude 4, so are barely visible with the naked eye from Earth. We can see anything below a magnitude 6 unaided in favourable conditions. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 15:56, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

Next I see the Trinity sector has a tag saying it needs major work... is it work on the Fed controled areas or is it the Klingon space??? or Romulan area?? Canreb 15:47, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

That's because I want to revamp it. I think the system stuff blongs on the system pages, leaving only the top 2 lines or so as being about the actual sector. Why's it so named, what's the history of the region, etc... Things which apply specifically to the sector and not just to little parts of it. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 15:56, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

Rough outline regarding the start of a revamped overview: User:Salak/Trinity. Might split the Federation, Romulan and Klingon bits of the current page into three new pages anyway, as the nav is getting long now and would link to those rather than to every system. Not yet sure what layout they'd have. They might just be categories, might have a list of star system templates, unsure. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 19:08, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

STOP

Right. What pages you want moved, say. I'll move them so we keep the edit history. - Lt. Salak ^Talk 14:01, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

OK... I only moved the info for Ophiucus system on the Trinity Sector page to Miri system on the Trinity Sector page... the entire system still has to be moved and each planet renamed... then the 1 inhabited planet needs to be moved to the new Miri page for that planet... When it is done I can then make the changes to explain the confussion in Federation records regarding the mix up in system names...Ophiucus 70 really being Miri system on the opposite side of Sol Canreb 14:07, 2 April 2008 (EDT)

System page moved, planet page moved. If there's anything else, do say please. I've not tweaked the page content yet. I just didn't want to handle another cut and paste move and assumed you were about to do such, hope that's okay? Should be fine to carry on now :) - Lt. Salak

Right... On the edit page, there's the long box at the bottom next to "Summary". Any text already appearing there will appear on Special:Recentchanges as a link to the section being edited, for example. After that, type a brief record of what you're adding. e.g. If you're adding facts and figures for an Asteroid belt, perhps add the summary "asteroid figures". - Lt.

Templates? Which ones do you want to create? - Lt. Salak

^Talk 13:30, 16 April 2008 (EDT)

Templates

Your experiment actually worked. The reason it showed a red link was because the template you were linking to doesn't exist. Take Template:Roth or Template:Cart'hen and copy the code across to the page linked in red, changing the planet links as appropriate. - Lt. Salak ^Talk 17:40, 16 April 2008 (EDT)

Tutorial

I've split the planet & asteroid pages off. If you go to Gamma Taboa system, you'll find the red link at the top for the template, and the red link in the categories bar at the bottom. Create the category first and keep it open. I've put all the relevent pages in there as they should be, and the page titles will help with the nav.

The coding for the template will be the tricky bit...

{| id="toc" class="toc"
|style="width:7.5em;"| '''[[Raskor system]]'''
| [[Raskor (star)|Star]] '''·''' [[Raskor|I]] '''·''' [[Raskor II|II]] '''·''' [[Raskor III|III]] '''·''' [[Raskor IV|IV]] '''·''' [[Raskor V|V]]
|}

Is the code to produce...

Raskor system

Star · I · II · III · IV · V

Change "Raskor system" to "Gamma Taboa system" and hit Preview. You'll find there isn't space for it to fit onto one line and that "system" is probably on a new line below. Where it says 7.5em earlier in that line, change the 7.5 to a larger number; 11.0em might be enough. That will give the system name more space and shift the other links along. As they are in a seperate column, they are not subject to the boldening that the system name is. '''·''' creates a bit of space and the dot between each option. Change the links between them so that it is appropriate to the system. You should finish with something like this:

Gamma Taboa system

Star · Belt I · I · Belt II

Hope that helps you. Should you get lost, I'll try to help out. Alternatively, the code I've just put here is fine to go on the template page, but you'll probably learn it better if you try changing the code yourself. :) This coding is only for the system contents nav templates, each type of template uses a different coding. Also, don't add categories to a template. Unless it's done in a particular way, it'll add every page with the template to that particular category. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 18:32, 16 April 2008 (EDT)

Um... you're meant to click on the link and put it as a new page, titled Template:Gamma Taboa. Not replace the template link with the code :P You'll find the links on the other pages in the system are all red links. If the template is a seperate page, one tweak to it will be copied to all the articles which include it. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 21:44, 16 April 2008 (EDT)

So I creat a page called Template"whatever"... put in the code and I'm all set... right Canreb 21:46, 16 April 2008 (EDT)

^Talk 21:58, 16 April 2008 (EDT)

Stars

Firstly, read the Categories bit above ;)

Secondly. How do you mean? If you mean what to put on each individual star page, see the other star systems for examples. If you mean the Trinity Sector page, I've got the beginnings of a redraft at User:Salak/Trinity which I think gets rid of them entirely. As all the systems are linked from the right menu, it may not even be needed to add a summary of them all in the page content, which is meant to be an overview of the whole sector anyway. I'd cite the Ithassa Region as an example except that it's being rewritten as well at the moment. - Lt. Salak ^Talk 22:03, 16 April 2008 (EDT)

Ok... in that case I will wait and see what the final version will be... I was just trying to respond to the STUB request for more info listed with most of the stars... Canreb 22:06, 16 April 2008 (EDT)

Ah, well that's probably me just saying "this article about a star is short, please add stuff when you sim about it" - Lt. Salak

^Talk 22:14, 16 April 2008 (EDT)

Understandable, but the approach I've used is that on Cart'hen system. It covers the very basics (It's an Orange Dwarf) and leaves the mass info for the stub star page. - Lt. Salak

^Talk 09:23, 17 April 2008 (EDT)

Having the star page separate IS important. It's a separate entity, just like each planet, whether inhabitable or not, is a separate entity. The star pages, unless something unusual happens to/with/because of the star, will be very short, yes. But the page should be there nonetheless.-Varaan 15:15, 17 April 2008 (EDT)

Trinity Sector

Why are you adding data from the systems pages to the Sector page? If anything, it wants to be taken OFF the sector page. The system pages, the star pages, the planet pages are for that info. - Lt. Salak ^Talk 21:38, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Actually I'm adding the other way... but I guess your right...I will only add it to the star listing from now on... I was doing the initial work on the sector page... copying and saving before then putting it on the star page... will only add to star page from now on... trying to finish all the stars before my break at work is over...

Let me double check each sector and make sure I have moved all the important data off the Trinity Sector page first... I think I have already done it for all the Federation systems... but I will let you know once I have double checked and made sure I did not forget something... Canreb 21:59, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Ok... I have checked down to and Finished New Scotland... will try and get to the others on my next break... question do we need to delet all info... I took out the main stuff that needs to be removed... left just a bare bones description... the kind of bare bones data that one could scroll down trying to find important facts fast... like member worlds... occupied worlds etc... let me know what you think...Canreb 22:07, 21 April 2008 (EDT)

Um, that one's debatable. We have an Ithassa Region Stellar Cartography (WARNING! Building Site!) page which overviews the systems and phenomenae, so that might be an option if we want to split the overview off. We're unsure how we're going to lay that page out yet, but it leaves Ithassa Region (our version of the Trinity Sector page) as an overview of the region and its history. And yes, I am Redrafting the main Ithassa Region page too... - Lt. Salak

OK... managed to finish the star data and checking the Federation systems... have not created pages yet for the non federation systems... I guess I should... that will be my next project... Canreb 00:51, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

I took a quick look at the work you are doing for the Ithassa redrafting project... nice work... much bigger area... I see some of my earlier work was kept and used... the only major thing I still want to add to the Trinity Sector main page is an image, copy of the map for just that sector... other than that I am very pleased with how it turned out so far... Canreb 00:58, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

Tried to cut out just the Trinity sector and then add it to the site... but pic ended up to small... could not see any details... when I tried to enlarge it first it became burry... not useable... I was hopeing to put map smack dab in the center of the big empty white section on the Trinity sector. Canreb 01:57, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

Think I've tried that myself with little luck. The map is already linked from the nav though, I just changed the name of the link to make it a tad more obvious (it had been the "(Sector 118)" link at the top). As for Ithassa, yes, it's a huge region. :) No reason such a crucial sector wouldn't have a similarly rich history though; given exploration it should even be more history :) - Lt. Salak

^Talk 02:08, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

Well thats what I tried to do... give Trinity Sector some depth... some history... while also giving lots of interesting simmimg locations and possibilities... now that the Federation part of it is done... next question is how much of the Klingon and Romulan area's of the sector should I fill in?... right now I just have 2 systems identified in both... they are the 2 largest population centers for their respective empires in Trinity sector... I was thinking of leaving most of the Romulan blank to be developed later as their border is closed... but with our treaty with the Klingons... I guess players could do missions in Klingon space... either with NPC Klingons or on their own... Canreb 21:53, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

I also checked my copy of the star charts book... the one our master copy of the star charts comes from... certain parts of the Ithassa region seem to be in the wrong spot as portrayed by the plain hand drawn black map... in compareson with the book... (location of the Gorn, Tholians, etc) will that be fixed... also how many sectors does it cover?... and once you have figured out the sectors will you be figureing out the coordinates of each sector?... also with such a huge area how many more systems are their?... Canreb 21:53, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

looking at the maps in the book it shows the Gorn below the Klingons in the Beta Quadrant, while the Tholians are WAY over in the Alpha quadrant with the Cardassian, Tkon and the Talarian empires between them and the Gorn... unlike on the Ithassa region map Canreb 22:05, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

After taking another look at the map of the Ithassa region I have to say that it needs to be updated... refined... turned into a more useable version... mind you that's just my opinion... as a working model it's ok... but not for a finished product... Canreb 22:05, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

Not another one moaning about the Ithassa map, lol! At the end of the day, I didn't make it. Also, Star Trek Star Charts is a non-canon reference anyway. I've raised all this with the relevent senior staff. It won't be "fixed". I doubt we'll be looking at sector co-ords, but for the total sector count, it's a lot. I've been asking occassionally for a new, up-to date map for the better part of 2 years, so don't hold your breath. The version there at the sec is correct as of August 2383, with ship positions edited off. Oh, and I think we deduced that the only place Ithassa would possibly fit in the Star Charts is the huge expanse at the bottom, the bit which is little more than a few Federation shipping lanes I guess, given the web nature of it on the map. - Lt. Salak

As for the Klingons and Romulans, don't see why there can't be missions in Klingon space. Fill in what you like. Bear in mind the distrust between the Romulans and Klingons which has become conflict at times (see here, here or here for examples). The Romulans became involved in the Klingon civil war too, so there may well be a history of conflict in the region. In addition, there's also the Klingon-Federation relations, which although good at times, can also turn foul. The Azure Nebula has a bit of history too :) - Lt. Salak

Work on Sectors

OK... I will try and add some data for the Klingon systems in Trinity... too bad about the Ithassa region map... I looked at the Star Trek Star Charts: The Complete Atlas of Star Trek by Geoffrey Mandel again... (how can it's charts be both canon and non-canon???)... anyway from what I can tell... your right... the Ithassa region is below the federation and it stradles the border between the Alpha and Beta Quadrants... I was able to figure out the distance between the Tholian and the Gorn... ITS 4 Sectors in Alpha space and then 4 Sectors in Beta space for a total of 8 Sectors between them... that makes the map they provided HUGE... way to big... Canreb 10:08, 23 April 2008 (EDT)

Talk about getting it wrong... another look at the Ithassa region map shows that they have the TZENKETHI COALITION which is in the 3rd sector away from Earth in the Alpha Quadrant as per the Canon star charts saved on the Wikki that we have been useing... no mention of the Cardassian Empire that is inbetween the TZENKETHI and the Tholians... or the Talarian Republic that is also inbetween the 2... Obviously they have all 3 of the Canon Races in the wrong places... (Tholian, Gorn and Tzenkethi)... when so much canon info shows that the map is wrong... why will they not try and fix it??? how hard can it be to make the map again but leave off the 3 Canon races (Tholian, Gorn and Tzenkethi)... that will not change the map they use but does delete the incorrect info... making their map right again???
