[edit] Traeki

According to [1] it's an alien race from David Brin's Uplift sci-fi series of novels. Not notable race and the article doesn't say anything useful in any case. Optimale ^Gu 13:06, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

• Delete Looks like there's plenty of room in the Uplift Universe article for a list of races. Not enough detail here to warrant a separate article. May be speedyable (A1 - no context). Fan1967 13:56, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
• Delete - per nom. Zaxem 17:24, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge per WP:FICT to Uplist Universe#Races. Very slight chance of that growing large enough to split off into a List of Races, let alone an article for each. I'm a Brin fan, but I don't see Traeki references in popular culture. Do fans wear Traeki ears to conventions? Barno 19:00, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Traeki don't have ears. Fan1967 20:50, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

It's been years since I read anything from the Uplift books. Do fans do some equivalent to Vulcan-ear-wearing that mass media has covered at conventions? Or anything notable? I haven't even heard or read the word in the intervening years. Barno 21:06, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

I don't think any of the Uplift races lent themselves to costuming. Certainly nothing that would draw interest outside of fandom. Fan1967 02:47, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
