Non-canon information in articles
Please note that Memory Alpha articles only include canon information. If you are interested in contributing information from non-canon licensed Star Trek works (such as from games, novels and comics) you may want to check out Memory Beta. Thanks!--31dot 21:54, November 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * As 31dot noted, informaiton from novels is not considered canon and should not be added to articles here as regular information. Full Circle is a novel.  Therefore we do not treat it as canon.
 * In other words, stop adding the information about "Captain Eden" to the USS Voyager article. That is something that belongs on Memory Beta.   Not here. -- sulfur 16:46, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Temporary block
Please read the comments about non-canon information and respond here to acknowledge that you've read and understood them. Especially the bits about information from novels not being relevant here. -- sulfur 17:05, December 1, 2009 (UTC)


 * OOPS Sorry Im New to Memory Alpha

No problem. It's best to read your talk page when you see the popup information when editing. But for any non-canon information (such as that from comics, novels, RPGs, or video games), the best place for that information is Memory Beta, as 31dot noted above. They're always looking for people willing to fill out that info. We've got our hands happily full of information from episodes and movies. :) -- sulfur 17:20, December 1, 2009 (UTC)

Oh, one other thing, make sure to sign your talk page comments with four tildes, such as: ~
