[edit] Commanders, STARFLEET & Temp Unoffical History Website
Just need to let everyone know that a main article on the Commanders, STARFLEET would be most likely be considered inappropriate to the Wikipedia administrators. If it is created it will MOST LIKELY be targeted for DELETION by the said administrators.
I am attempting to get up website that has the information I have for the Unofficial History of STARFLEET. You can click [HERE].

[edit] Cleanup
There's a lot of grammatical cleanup needed in this article, some spliced sentences and so on... anyone wanna make a run at cleaning it up? Teekno 14:12, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
OK, did it.--Hawk 21:57, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] NPOV?
I am worried that we might have some NPOV issues here... specifically regarding the reference to the McGinnis years, and to a lesser extent, the "important" CQ issue with the historian content... thoughts? Teekno 16:13, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
The reason I did not add that to the original content (McGinnis Debacle) is the we have a link to the short history and I felt we did not need to re-air our dirty laundry. People can go to that linkl to read our history. I felt we needed a shorter outline for content sakes. It is the same reason I did not cover the Wetsch/Stillwell event more nor any of the IRS or incorporation conflicts we have had. BTW, that is my name on the top of the short history. Thanks - --Hawk 21:57, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
Well, I am not sure that "we could have been even less NPOV" is the best response here. There still seems to be some bias with even the limited history presented. Teekno 20:33, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
Well, I don't think that there is a bias in the writing that was done (I do have to admit someone went behind and rewrote what I had on the history). However if anybody else wants to know our history they can got to the link presented at the end of the article. Minor revision done by --Hawk 13:48, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
The link to the unofficial history no longer goes anywhere. --GGG 11:19, 1 January 2007 ET
I did not know this. Apparantly the link was removed when the previous STARFLEET Historian resigned. I will disable the link and attempt to replace it asap (sice I wrote the article) and try to update it. Thanks. --Hawk 16:35, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Capitalisation?
Is the name capitalised for a reason? Is it an acronym/initialism? --jazzle 11:55, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
The capitalization of STARFLEET is done for a few reasons. For the articles itself it was to differintiate the association from the fictional version of Starfleet. This is a standard proceedure by Trekdom (Star Trek Fandom) when talking about STARFLEET vs Starfleet. It is sometimes refered to as Starfleet International (SFI) although this is not the associations' legal name, although it is part of the extended name for legal purposes.--Hawk 13:44, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
How about a redirect from STARFLEET: The International Star Trek Fan Association?
