 * When making edits, please do so in as few saves as possible, as it creates a load on our systems. That is, each time you save, you effective save the same file over and over and over. If a file is 30kb and you've save it 5 times, you've just used 150 kbs, whereas one save would have used a mere 30kbs. Seeing that you are just making minor edits, I highly recommend using the "show preview" feature until you are satified with your edits and wish to make a save.--Alan del Beccio 16:11, 21 Oct 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm seriously not trying to nag you, but in regards to Mediterranean Alliance, that is not considered canon, according to our and  policies. However, the reference could be made on the Star Trek: The Motion Picture (novel) page. --Alan del Beccio 16:31, 21 Oct 2005 (UTC)

Rigellians
What's your source that the turtle-Rigellians are from Rigel IV? I haven't seen it in any of Robert Fletcher's notes online, and I'm pretty sure Mr. Hengist wasn't Rigellian.--Tim Thomason 19:00, 18 Nov 2005 (UTC)

The Making of Star Trek: The Motion Picture lists Rigel IV as their home world. Hengist is obviously not a reptilian Rigellian, but he could have very well been a Human living on Rigel IV in the same manner non-Humans live on Earth in the 22nd, 23rd and 24th centuries. As a Federation member world, it would have been fairly open.
