I just ran into this: Apparently Stephanie Spruill is not credited on IMDB as the Other Supreme. However, [ | I just ran into this: Apparently Stephanie Spruill is not credited on IMDB as the Other Supreme. However, [http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0932288/ Carolyn Willis] and [http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0564665/ Marti McCall] are credited as "Space Angel"s on IMDb. While IMDb isn't exactly the end all, be all for some things, this raises the question of where these names came from in the first place, since none of the Tucanas are credited in the show's on-screen credits themselves. | ||

:::::Starlog #27 (published October 1979) was my first episode guide reference. Once I had put together a collection of videotapes, I began listing as "uncredited" any name in the episode guide that didn't appear in the beginning and end credits of the episode. That work in separating the lists of names eventually migrated over to the Wiki, where I tagged all the names that didn't appear onscreen as "uncredited" as well. The three Tucana Singers are only listed in Starlog (Myrna Matthews/"Little Supreme", Patty Brooks/"Other Supreme", Stephanie Spruill/"Big Supreme") and the two Ovions (Sandy Gimple, Diane L. Burgrorf), as well as Ted White and John Zenda. Rene Assa's name appeared in a separate source, a British Science fiction guide and I've seen it in a few other places. Poeople place IMDB as a source but their info is only as good as those who entered it in the database. With respect to the Space Supremes (that is how Starlog describes them), it really depends on how rock-solid the uncredited references really are. I personally have confidence in the source, but at the same time, if the name isn't in the official credits, you need to list it as uncredited. There is one other uncredited reference in Starlog - Cathy Paine - whom they claimed was the Voice of CORA in [[The Long Patrol]]. Thank you for alerting me to this cast sourcing issue, as I am quite familiar with this side of the equation. --[[User:Larocque6689|Larocque6689]] 16:56, 2 January 2007 (CST) | :::::Starlog #27 (published October 1979) was my first episode guide reference.

::::::Thanks for the info! Joe, would you feel better if we went straight to the Starlog as the source? Fortunately for us [http://www.starlog.com/store/product.php?id=28 back issues are available]. Ten dollars would be a small price to pay for a really freakin' detailed citation... --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 14:30, 3 January 2007 (CST) | ::::::Thanks for the info!
