Talk:Sacrifice of Angels (episode)

Removed Background Note
I removed:
 * As a sidenote, the story bears a resemblance with the final battle from Star Wars - Return of the Jedi.

from background information, as the resemblance (to me) is superficial: two fleets fight. If there is a more valid resemblance then it should be spelled out.– Cleanse 04:35, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
 * My guess is that the resemblance is the two battles occurring simultaneously, the fleet battle, and the "commando team" trying to disarm the weapon/lower the shield, depending on which you are watching. The connection is indeed superficial, especially when you consider that there were no furry natives, and the "commando team" actually failed in the Star Trek version. Lots of other differences as well. -- G O  R E D S O X  08:14, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Alfred, Lord Tennyson
In the real world, at least, the poet in question is usually referred to as Alfred, Lord Tennyson, and Lord Alfred Tennyson is simply incorrect (the word "lord" is being used with a different meaning in the latter). On the other hand I have been caught out before in supposing that real-world English usage might be assumed to be true in the Star Trek universe, so I hesitate the edit the reference myself... --Leckford 11:01, 22 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Seeing it's a background note explaining where the poem comes from, we should follow the real world usage; I'm pretty certain the poet himself was not mentioned. – Cleanse 06:39, 26 December 2007 (UTC)


 * As an English lecturer, I can confirm that you're absolutely right Leckford. 'Lord Alfred Tenneyson' is incorrect, it's a very common error people make with his name. It should be written 'Alfred, Lord Tenneyson'. His name was actually 'Alfred Tenneyson', but he later became 'Lord Tenneyson' (I can't quite remember why, he was in a member of the House of Lords if memory serves, but I'm not sure if that's the reason, it would be easy enough to find online I'm sure). Eventually, he became 'Alfred, Lord Tenneyson'. You're right Cleanse, the name is never mentioned in the episode, but if BG notes follow real world usage then it should be changed to 'Alfred, Lord Tenneyson' – Bertaut 16:30, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Removal of Background Information
In the background of the episode where it is written:
 * As the Defiant makes its run past the Dominion warship, there are three Klingon Birds-of-Prey flying nearby, one flanking each side of the Defiant, and one just out in front. If you watch closely, it appears as if the Bird-of-Prey ahead of the Defiant is destroyed by friendly fire from the Bird-of-Prey on the Defiant's right.

Has been removed. In fact, if you watch very closely, frame by frame, you see the Bird of Prey on the top right fire two shots which both go past the front Bird of Prey before it explodes. In fact, it appears as though the front Bird of Prey explodes spontaneously, as it is not hit by any fire.


 * Removed nitpick, for the record:
 * Just after Odo's security force kills the Jem'Hadar attacking Rom and Kira it can be seen that Kira's combadge is upside down--31dot 13:10, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
