As you are new, you may want to look at some of the other articles before editing. Also, please Cite your sources on all articles you edit or create, and only create an article if it can be useful, not just so the article is created. For example, if you'd look at the "What links here" page for Lipton, you'd find the links don't describe the tea company, but a person. - AJ Halliwell 01:09, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
 * I'd suggest that you re-read the previous note. The articles you are creating today have no substance in terms of Star Trek. --OuroborosCobra talk |undefined  21:32, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Please re-read the comment. Memory Alpha is not just here for you to provide dictionary definitions. Provide context as to what your articles have to do with Star Trek, please. --OuroborosCobra talk |undefined  21:52, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * As an example of an article that provided context to Star Trek, here is a link to the Rain article as I originally created it. That is the first edit, and it provides some context, without making others do it. It is not just a dictionary definition having nothing to do with Star Trek. As a side note, it can't be that hard to do, "Rain" was the first wiki article I ever wrote. --OuroborosCobra talk |undefined  21:58, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
