Talk:Starfleet ranks

"Starfleet officer"
I'm not sure what this is supposed to be- it sounds dictionary-like to me, which we are not. I'd be willing to hear an explanation, but we may want to merge this somewhere. 31dot 23:54, September 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * The page is needed becasue the subject of ranks is far too complex to intergrate anywhere. There are at least 05 Officer ranks alone (Ensgign, Lt, Commnder, Captain, Admiral; this doesn't include intermediate ranks).174.25.42.71 04:09, January 14, 2011 (UTC)A REDDSON

Non-Naval Ranks
Tehre is no attempt to address non-naval ranks other than a very breif blurb on Lt Colonel WEST (and mention that he was supposedly based on Lt Col Oliver NORTH; considering the WEST was a traitor, this is an unseemly connection to make). This should be corrected.174.25.42.71 04:11, January 14, 2011 (UTC)A REDDSON
 * Feel free to do so, or state specifically what you would like to see included.--31dot 22:55, January 14, 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm not really sure what else can be added in the article. It already lists all the non-naval ranks and titles that have appeared in canon. And yes, West was named after North.– Cleanse ( talk 02:08, January 15, 2011 (UTC)

How about anything OTHER than Lt Col? If there's a "Lt Col" anything, then there is a Colonel SOMETHING, and the ranks thereof subordiante. As to "feeling free to do so" bull. Last time I did it got erased. If I could find the name of that Federation General, you so-called "case" would be closed.174.25.42.71 03:09, January 16, 2011 (UTC)A REDDSON


 * This page is based upon the ranks mentioned in canon (see also our canon policy). We don't list other ranks from the real-world. Starfleet is not a real military, and is centuries in the future. There are various explanations for West's rank of "Colonel", if you look at his talk page.– Cleanse ( talk 03:54, January 16, 2011 (UTC)

VOY provisional ranks
The images need to be updated. The auctions a while back revealed that the edge and slashes on the pins are actually silver, while the background is still gold. -- Kevin W. &bull; Talk to me 19:17, November 20, 2012 (UTC)
