[edit] Small thing
Welcome to Wikipedia :-) Just wanted to let you know that I undid one of your Spock edits: although "presumably" Spock held the rank of ensign, one could just as firmly presume that he skipped it, or that maybe Starfleet decided to retire the rank for a week, or some other sillyness. While plausible, material in Wikipedia needs to be attributable to a reliable, secondary source; inferences and assumptions, no matter how logical and plausible, are considered original research and generally don't last long in Wikipedia articles. There are a ton of empty spots in Star Trek lore that are tempting to try to fill in with well-intentioned supposition -- but, restraint is the order of the day. Anyhow, thanks for your contributions; welcome to Wikipedia. --EEMeltonIV 05:15, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
