Talk:Orange alert

I've always thought that the ship was at red alert when the ship was set to self destruct. --Babaganoosh 18:39, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

oh, sure. whenever I make a post about something you disagree with, you're all over it like white on rice but when someone else post something that clearly never existed in the ST universe, you leave it alone. (I think they're jealous they didn't notice some of the things I post - that's why they gang up on me.) --Babaganoosh 21:57, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

 * Haha, yes well... I always thought it was red alert as well. No pages link here, and I can't say I've ever heard Orange alert used, so yes, this seems like a candidate for deletion unless it can be cited. - AJ Halliwell 22:05, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Babaganoosh, this article has existed for less than 4 hours. Sometimes we are all here to jump on something, sometimes we aren't. You have to learn to take things less personally. That said, I do not know of any Trek reference for this. --OuroborosCobra talk 22:07, 11 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Babaganoosh... breathe, man. Seriously. ;) As for the article, I've never heard of an orange alert, and I seem to recall a previous attempt to add this term somewhere on MA. So, I think we can delete this. --From Andoria with Love 00:45, 12 February 2007 (UTC)


 * Just so you know, my Standard Operating Procedure when i see an uncitable article is to place a note stating it needs a citation. In this way, the user who created it can be made aware that there is a problem, should they check back. The next step is to discuss deletion. Some think this is 'soft', but i hate starting a deletion discussion unless i've given some time for the facts to come forth (like my curiosity about the nonexistent orange.gif).


 * A different situation would be if a user added an uncitable reference to a preexisting cited article -- in that case i would act quicker, Baba, and remove the info to the talk page -- perhaps this is the kind of behavior you refer to? -- Captain M.K.B. 15:00, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
