I've been digging through the TOS category, looking for articles that need images. I think we're near 100% of the characters, but there are other odds and ends that could use images. I'm trying to either find an image for it, or classify it as Mentioned-Only (or terminology, figures of speech, or some other category that indicates that an image is not necessary/expected). --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 16:18, 20 February 2006 (EST)

Congratulations to All

What a difference a few months make. I personally wanted to give a thank-you to Steelviper and the many people who've stepped up to bring the Original Series articles to practically the same level of depth and detail as our Re-imagined Series articles enjoy. Where we used to find red links on almost every randomly-accessed Original Series article, anyone know can hit these pages and find more than enough detail, complete with very good screen captures. Despite the availiablity of the complete series on DVD, this could not be easy; many contributors had to pick carefully through online sources with dubious canonical value on a show that aired long before the Internet would record its passing.

My two cents: The character pages still seem weaker in comparison to their RDM versions, and the actor bios are lighter still. I've still to get my TOS DVD set to help out, but keep up the good work. I will need to update this personal assessment of the wiki in comparison to other wikis in a few weeks. Not to steal Joe's thunder (he owns the place, after all), but I did want to say that's it great to read about the old show again, if not be able to watch it. --Spencerian 11:12, 8 February 2006 (EST)
