One other suggestion: If you're going to make comments on talk pages or make other sorts of comments, please be sure to sign them with four tildes (AJHalliwell 12:54, 14 Jul 2005 (UTC)) to paste in your user name and the date/time of the comment.

If you have any questions, please feel free to post them in our Ten Forward community page. Thanks, and once again, welcome to Memory Alpha!

Also, I've noticed you've uploaded a number of images recently. Please be mindful of what you name the images you upload, to be short, but accurately descriptive; an example being File:Scharn.jpg, which isn't quite so much a direct picture of Scharn as a group. See Naming conventions above. Also, please remember to cite the pictures you use; give the episode in conformity with other pictures uploaded. Thank you, and welcome to Memory Alpha. - AJHalliwell 12:54, 14 Jul 2005 (UTC)

 * In all, I found 28 copyright violations. Although we appreciate your interest and seeing that you are a student, I just wanted to point out that as a student you should be fully aware of the implications of copying the work of others in school, and claiming it as your own. The same applies here, and I'm surprised one needs to be told this, but please, please, please, make original contributions to Memory Alpha. Watch the episodes, make your notes and add them here, in your own words. Again thank you, and please make use of the above links mentioned in the initial welcome at the top of your talk page. We look forward to any original posts you make in the future. --Alan del Beccio 19:04, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)

Canon policy
Specifically regarding the Discovery: as it has never been mentioned or seen on Star Trek, it doesn't get a page on Memory Alpha. As such, Please refrain from uploading any more real-life images. - AJHalliwell 09:02, 27 Jul 2005 (UTC)
