Contacting users

Name Current Text
 {{edithint-bias}} Bias

Please refrain from adding bias in articles. This lacks the objectivity that Memory Alpha strives for, and may also constitute original research. Articles should be written in an encyclopedic format.

 {{edithint-canon}} Supplementary information in articles

Please note that in-universe articles on Memory Alpha only include information from the television episodes and theatrical films. Any non-canon information from a tie-in may be added in an apocrypha section, but please try to limit such notes to about a paragraph. If you are interested in contributing large quantities of information from licensed Star Trek works (such as from games, novels, and comics), you may want to check out Memory Beta. Thanks!

 {{edithint-cite}} Citations

Please cite your sources. Uncited information may be removed from articles. Thanks.

 {{edithint-fanon}} Fanon information in articles

Please note that Memory Alpha articles only include information from official and approved sources. If you are interested in contributing information from fan-created works you may want to check out the Star Trek Expanded Universe or Memory Gamma. Thanks!

 {{edithint-formatting}} Formatting

Please read our wiki markup page for information on the formatting guidelines of Memory Alpha.

 {{edithint-images}} Files

Please take a moment to read the file use policy. All files uploaded to Memory Alpha need a proper file licensing template as well as citations and categories. Files without the required information will be removed from articles and are subject to deletion. If you have any questions about how to add these requirements or why this needs to be done, feel free to ask.

 {{edithint-nitpick}} Nitpicking

Please note that nitpicking is not allowed on Memory Alpha. There are many production errors within Star Trek and many possible explanations; we can't list them all.

 {{edithint-personal images}} Template:Edithint-personal images
 {{edithint-pov}} Point of view in articles

Memory Alpha's primary point of view is that of a character inside the fictional Star Trek universe – an archivist at Memory Alpha, the Federation library planet. Because Star Trek stories take place in many different eras, from the beginnings of life on Earth to the 31st century and beyond, and because forthcoming stories may even expand beyond that, it is important to write all articles from a single perspective: i.e. that of someone looking back at the past. This helps to keep Memory Alpha consistent and understandable. Please read Point of view as there are a few exceptions to this rule. Thanks!

 {{edithint-preview}} Multiple edits

Please make use of the "show preview" button when making edits. This allows you to see what your edit looks like before you save it, which reduces the load on the database and makes the Recent Changes feed easier to read. Thanks.

 {{edithint-sign}} Signature

Please sign your talk page comments using ~~~~ or click the signature button above. This helps us keep track of who said what.

 {{edithint-similar}} Similarities

Please note that we only note similarities when confirmed by a background source that the similarity was intentional. There are too many similarities to existing and future stories that cataloging them would take up more space that the article.

 {{edithint-tense}} Tense

Please note that we use the past tense within in-universe articles. Because Star Trek stories take place in many different eras, it is important to write all articles from a single perspective: that of someone looking back at past events. This helps to keep Memory Alpha consistent and understandable. Thanks.

 {{edithint-test}} Test

Thanks for experimenting with Memory Alpha. Your test worked, and has now been, or shortly will be, removed. If you wish to test your wiki editing skills further, please use the sandbox, as tests made in the article space will be removed quickly. Please see the welcome page if you would like to learn more about contributing here. Thanks.

 {{edithint-vandalism}}
/
 {{Edithint-vandalism|blocked}} 		Vandalism

Please do not vandalize articles. If you continue to do so, you will be blocked from editing for a period of time. Repeated vandalism will result in longer blocks.
/
You have been blocked from editing for a period of time because you vandalized Memory Alpha articles. Repeated vandalism will result in longer blocks.

 {{edithint-wikipedia}} Wikipedia

Please do not copy information directly from Wikipedia. We strive to create original content instead of relying on external sources of written material. Information copied from Wikipedia will be removed immediately.

 {{newuser}} This brief blurb was placed here to eliminate Message templates's user page from clogging up the list of wanted pages. If you are the user, please feel free to let the public know a little more about you and your contributions.
