Composer

[edit]

Jeff Russo is the composer on this show. He has been working on episodes 2,3, and 4 related to the filming of those episodes and has already started work on the score and theme. I work on his team.WeAreFamily1996 (talk) 23:28, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you work on his team, kindly see WP:COI. -- Alex_21 TALK 23:44, 5 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This is not an edit of an opinon, but just a statement of fact. There is no COI there. WeAreFamily1996 (talk) 22:45, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Writing about someone you work for is a conflict of interest, no matter what it is that you are saying. Regardless, all information must be supported by a reliable source, we cannot take your (or anyone else's) word for it. - adamstom97 (talk) 08:32, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That makes no sense. The reliable source is me. I am involved, that is not a conflict that is a fact. You dont have to take my word for it, I have a right to put this here as much as you have a right to not believe it. Im not sure I understand why you wouldnt. This is not far fetched. This is completely within reason. WeAreFamily1996 (talk) 17:53, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It is not. You have been asked, told and warned about this. Citing a reliable source is a basic part of Wikipedia, but you seem to ignore this wilfully. I've reported you for edit warring. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 18:16, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I am citing a reliable source. The production, me, the composer, the director, the producers, the studio. Everyone. WeAreFamily1996 (talk) 01:02, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You do not conform with WP:RS and WP:V. Given that you have now been linked the relevant policies, please educate yourself on them. Thank you. -- Alex_21 TALK 01:23, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Possible move

[edit]

I have just attempted to revert and clean-up an unexplained series of moves by FreeRogue who copied the contents of this article over to Star Trek: Starfleet Academy, which previously housed the information that has now been moved to Star Trek: Starfleet Academy (1997 video game). This discussion is to determine the best outcome for the rest of this clean-up work:

  1. Leave the TV series at Star Trek: Starfleet Academy (TV series) and the video game at Star Trek: Starfleet Academy (1997 video game), and turn Star Trek: Starfleet Academy into a disambiguation page
  2. Leave the TV series at Star Trek: Starfleet Academy (TV series) and move the video game back to Star Trek: Starfleet Academy
  3. Move the TV series to Star Trek: Starfleet Academy correctly and leave the video game at Star Trek: Starfleet Academy (1997 video game)

I personally would lean towards Option 3 as it is likely that the TV series will become the primary topic, similar to what happened with Star Trek: Section 31, but I can also see arguments for Option 1 making sense at the moment. Any thoughts on the best approach here are welcome. - adamstom97 (talk) 11:17, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I vote for option 3 – Vilnisr T | C 12:17, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Option 1. For an upcoming series, you can't claim it is the primary topic when it hasn't even released yet. And given the existance of a similarly titled video game, option 1 is the way forward at this time. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:16, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. — Fourthords | =Λ= | 15:12, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have turned Star Trek: Starfleet Academy into a disambiguation page for now, we can look into Option 3 in the future if it becomes clear that the series is the primary topic. - adamstom97 (talk) 19:18, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Geographical naming standard

[edit]

Toronto is a city located in the province of Ontario in the country of Canada. Just like Detroit is a city located in the state of Michigan in the country of the USA. The geographical naming conventions for Canada are identical to The ones used in the USA. It is not written "Toronto, Canada" just like it's not written "Detroit, USA". Please do not revert my edit. I live in Toronto, Ontario, and I worked on Star Trek: Starfleet Academy. It was shot in "Toronto, Ontario, Canada", not "Toronto, Canada". Just below one of the edits, it mentions the academy shots being shot in "Waterloo, Ontario", which is the correct naming convention, so how or why are you removing my edit which added "Ontario" to the incorrect "Toronto, Canada"? Kubrickrules (talk) Kubrickrules (talk) 16:45, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Again, can you please point to the policy or guideline where this "geographical naming standard" has been established? - adamstom97 (talk) 16:56, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I have a better idea: why don't you explain to us why you reverted the correct "Toronto Ontario, Canada" to the incorrect "Toronto, Canada" but left "Waterloo, Ontario" alone, or why you think you need a policy or guideline when none is necessary? If Waterloo, located about an hour outside of Toronto, can be in Ontario according to Wikipedia and this very article, why can't Toronto? I live in Canada. This is like asking an American to prove that it's written "Detroit, Michigan" instead of "Detroit, USA". I can provide 100 different Wikipedia links to articles where it's written "Toronto, Ontario". Toronto is the city and it's located in the province of Ontario, and here you're trying to tell me that adding the word "Ontario" (which already should have been there in the first place, because it's 100% correct) is wrong.
Apparently you have no access to maps, either paper, or digital.
It should be incumbent upon you to explain how I'm wrong. I also want to know what country you live in.Kubrickrules (talk) Kubrickrules (talk) 17:28, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Where I live is irrelevant, and kind of creepy for you to ask like that. I know that Toronto is in Ontario and I never stated that it wasn't. You are claiming that there is a "naming standard" that must be followed but are refusing to explain where that standard is explained. The fact is, it is not standard for any country outside of the US to have local states/provinces/prefectures be listed, unless you can point me to the policy/guideline that states otherwise. If this series was made in Sydney, Australia, I would not expect the location to be listed as "Sydney, New South Wales, Australia". The same logic applies here. The reason Ontario is listed for Waterloo is to differentiate it from all the other places in Canada that have the same name, not to mention the many places around the world named Waterloo. - adamstom97 (talk) 18:45, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I need you to tell me how I'm wrong. Kubrickrules (talk) Kubrickrules (talk) 23:03, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You need to cite a guideline or policy that supports what you're saying. What and where is this naming standard? Where is it explained in detail outside of your own personal view? So far, it's just shown as WP:IDONTLIKEIT and nothing more. As an Australian, I would also argue "Sydney, Australia" over "Sydney, New South Wales, Australia" (see NCIS: Sydney). -- Alex_21 TALK 23:11, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I've got a better question: how does someone from New Zealand tell someone from Canada how Canadian geographical conventions work or do not work? How are you the arbiter of this? As well, how is "Waterloo, Ontario" fine, but not "Toronto, Ontario"? They're two cities in Ontario, about 1.5 hours apart by car. You seem completely unhinged. Kubrickrules (talk) 23:15, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I've got a better question. Who made you the owner of Wikipedia's Canada-related artices? Why can you still not provide a guideline or policy? Do that, and this whole discussion can be over. -- Alex_21 TALK 23:46, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
To progress this along with guidelines and policies, which the opening editor refuses to do, WP:PLACE exists. Going to the Canada section takes us to MOS:CANADA. Per WP:CANPLACE: In articles that are about non-Canadian topics, for example, sports figures, the format of City, Canada may be used as a convention. This allows for Toronto, Canada. Problem solved there. The reason we cannot use Waterloo, Canada is due to the multitude of locations by this name, this means that Waterloo, Ontario is required for natural disambiguation. Problem solved there as well now. I recognize the first paragraph of CANADA as well, but the second paragraph, of which I have quoted, allows for this exact situation to be used, as this is typical in articles of North American topics. -- Alex_21 TALK 23:58, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You are clearly not reading any of my comments so I don't see any reason in continuing this discussion. Thanks to Alex for finding the appropriate guideline. - adamstom97 (talk) 08:23, 11 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
