To answer your question regarding POV and speculation, the following paragraphs are the problem:


 * A comparison between the title sequence from, and that of other Star Trek: Enterprise episodes suggest that the early histories of "Earth "and "Terra" were virtually identical, with a different emphasis placed on the shared historical scenes selected.


 * Aside from some slight differences (such as an astronaut planting the flag of the Terran Empire on Earth's moon, Luna) the divergence point between the two realities seems to be Earth's first contact with an alien species, and humanity's reaction to the event.

The first paragraph is an example of a "real world" or "production POV". You are referencing actual episode titles and referring to the actual franchise in the article space. Information in the article space must be from the point-of-view of someone within the Star Trek universe.

The second paragraph is incorrect speculation. We don't know if the planting of the flag was a slight difference or not, and canon evidence suggests that the Terran Empire was in existence for centuries prior to 2155, so First Contact could not have been the point where the universes diverged. We really don't know when or where this divergence occurred.

I hope all of this helps. Please feel free to ask if you have more questions. Oh, and please don't create new articles just to make comments or ask questions – that's what these nifty talk pages are for. ;) --From Andoria with Love 05:47, 23 June 2007 (UTC)


 * By the way, I forgot to let you know how to reduce the number of edits you make to an article. When you're editing, make sure to use the "show preview" button as often as possible. This way, you can look over your recent edit and continue editing without saving. When you're done editing and you're sure everything's the way you want it, then you can save it. If you find more things to correct afterwards, that's fine, but using the preview button should drastically reduce the amount of edits you make for those corrections. Hope that helps! :) --From Andoria with Love 07:31, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
