Deletion rationale[]

All we have in the episode is Thera, said to be where Ah'len is from and which appears to be on a planet. It wasn't made clear that what we saw was the Xyrillian homeworld as opposed to some random colony or something. The planet is already discussed on Unnamed Alpha and Beta Quadrant planets, which is the more logical place to discuss it. -- Capricorn (talk) 05:45, June 18, 2017 (UTC)

The word "homeworld" is never used in dialogue. Support deletion. --LauraCC (talk) 20:14, July 13, 2017 (UTC)

Merge with aforementioned UAaBQp entry, since there is a justification for this title in the entry from the STE. --Alan del Beccio (talk) 14:16, July 14, 2017 (UTC)

That works. --LauraCC (talk) 18:26, August 2, 2017 (UTC)

Actually, after further investigation, I think there is something to say of the key points, it was called "their planet (world)" (not colony, etc) and they're trying to "get home". Now that doesn't mean "home planet", but "Xyrillian planet"/"Xyrillian home planet" is a suitable name, if so chosen. Now there has always been a certain leeway in how things are define, the key is to make note of ambiguous interpretations with bgnotes. Besides, I would think the STE entry would suffice as a source to support this name. Because in the end, we are presuming this is their homeworld, as apparent has the STE, based on these key words, not assuming, nor is there indication that it is a colony, a case Trek references tend to like to emphasize, merely a "home" + "planet". --Alan del Beccio (talk) 12:27, September 1, 2017 (UTC)
