Also, I understand that Minnesota was alluded to due to a mention of Duluth, but the article was previously deleted for not being a direct reference and therefore this qualified as an immediate delete. However, because you are new, I will allow the article to remain and simply post the article up for discussion here. In any case, welcome again to Memory Alpha. :) --From Andoria with Love 21:46, 13 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Fact vs. Canon
While we much appreciate the enthusiasm with which you are contributing to the "real-life" articles on this wiki and while I personally marvel at your apparent knowledge of such things, it is asked that you please try to limit such "real world" information to what has been established in canon (in other words, on-screen). For instance, it was never revealed how or when, in the Star Trek universe, the aircraft carrier Enterprise was launched. Although we can assume these occured the same way they did in the "real world", if it hasn't been explicitly stated on-screen, it's speculation, which are not allowed here, at least not in the great length and style you have been providing. This is not Wikipedia; this is a wiki for canon Trek-related material only. Thank you. --From Andoria with Love 16:56, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, I agree with Shran. Let's try to limit the specifics to what was cited in Trek, and leave the rest to wikipedia, or other external links. --Alan del Beccio 21:42, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I will ask you again, please keep information limited to what was directly specified in Trek. What you added to Battle cruiser and Escort hardly qualified. --From Andoria with Love 23:18, 8 February 2006 (UTC)
