Some people apparently don't like this - I just today discovered that [http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Skram_%28G2%29&diff=526868&oldid=496871 a link to Skram's bio had been intentionally deleted] for some reason, I assume because the editor thought the standard TFU.info link was good enough. But I say if there's source material out there, we ought to be directing folks to it by default, so other sites' transcription errors are never an issue. - [[User:Jackpot\|Jackpot]] 11:18, 19 April 2011 (EDT)

			My brain is hurting from the wrongness of "Antaresian". It should be "Antarean", but I guess we're stuck with Antaresian as canon. --[[User:Khajidha\|Khajidha]] 12:10, 19 April 2011 (EDT)
