 * What do you mean "other Archer references"? -- sulfur 10:19, March 15, 2011 (UTC)

I Think at a disambiguation page...C-IMZADI-4 13:39, March 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Archer (disambiguation). -- sulfur 13:46, March 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * I think it would make more sense to have the disambiguation here, at "Archer". This would be consistent with Kirk, Picard, Sisko, Janeway etc. –Cleanse ( talk 00:19, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * "Archer" is the name given in the new movie, and most people wouldn't realize that he was "Jonathan Archer" in that reality. -- sulfur 00:39, March 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * But "Archer" as a term is also quite frequently used in Star Trek: Enterprise to refer to the "prime" Jonathan (and many more times than in the movie, I might add). I would wager that most people typing in "Archer" are looking for that guy, not the alternate reality version. This seems exactly why we should have a disambiguation rather than a redirect at "Archer" page, because we can't be sure which Archer the reader is looking for.–Cleanse ( talk 01:17, March 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thus the link to the disambig at the top at the top. The Archer in the new movie was only ever named "Archer", the one in Enterprise was "Jonathan Archer".  Called Archer a couple of times, but was Jonathan Archer.  The one in the movie was only called "Archer". -- sulfur 01:28, March 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * A fair point, the name was intended to reference to Jonathan Archer (even more so by the pet Beagle), but the name used onscreen was only "Admiral Archer", perhaps then, the content at "Jonathan Archer (alternate reality)" to this page (if that's what Sulfur was getting at)? --Terran Officer 03:39, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * It was at "Archer" originally, and moved to the full name since the producers intended (and stated in cited locations) that "Archer" was to be "Jonathan Archer". There are discussions about this on the Jonathan Archer talk page and peer review already.  The choice was to leave the redirect pointing to that page due to his only ever being referenced as "Admiral Archer", and had the original user looked at the page, he would have seen the disambiguation link and this would all be a moot point. :) -- sulfur 10:23, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
