Appropriateness of this article

I hate to drill into Dreamer's first article with us when he/she just got here, but I'm not sure if this article is specific enough for the wiki. We have many bits of trivia in the Notes section of many articles, like the sighting of other SF ships in the miniseries. Tricia's and Grace's data could be placed in their bios. Comments? --Spencerian 23:50, 7 February 2006 (EST)

Agree. The "Re-imagined Series References" page is a good source for most non-biographical trivia, which is best located within the appropriate articles. --Peter Farago 23:55, 7 February 2006 (EST)
Greetings to you all and I must say, I'm surprised by the immediate attention my additions got, thanks :) What Spencerian says is very true, all data herein can be contained elsewhere in the wiki or nowhere at all. However, my personal feeling is that:
- Certain people are interested in tidbits regarding their favorite series in general, not only focused on certain actors/characters/objects et al. Personally, I check the IMDB trivia page constantly.
- For those who do, it's better for them to acquire those tidbits from a specific page rather than "mine" through the whole site to get that information. --Dreamer 00:08, 8 February 2006 (EST)
