Talk:Star Trek (disambiguation)

Purpose of the main-namespace page "Star Trek"

   The accompanying disambiguation page Star Trek has borne for 3 years, as the opening comment within the Wiki-markup (so to speak, the source code) for the opening section of that page,

**PLEASE NOTE**: This page is not a collection of Star Trek-related links; only to those known as *just* "Star Trek", per WP:DAB

which inadequate guidance i am rewriting to better reflect the real substance of WP:DAB, as follows:

[The] page is subject to the guidelines of Wikipedia:Disambiguation, and thus is indeed not a collection of Star Trek-related links.
In fact, for the same reason, it
is not a mere "collection" of any kind of links,
does not include links to pages outside the English-language Wikipedia, and
is narrower in scope than Star Trek-related English-language Wikipedia pages.
Its main content is entries that each include a link to an article or section whose topic could have been titled "Star Trek" but for the presence of one or more topics equally or more deserving of that two-word title; in addition to such entries, entries in a "See also" section may link to articles (such as "Star Trak") that likely to be misunderstood or misremembered as having the title "Star Trek".

Given many people are coming to this page looking for elements of the star trek franchise outside of the original series, removing any reference to them is illogical. It also doesn't seem to violate the disambiguation policy. Seems there is no clear path from the disambiguation page to the other franchise elements outside of going through the original series pages. Is this a non-neutral POV for the original series keeping things illogically and cumbersome this way?Xris0 (talk) 21:17, 13 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

i agree. i came here looking for a list of star trek TV shows. if you're not going to include them can there at least be a disambiguation link that tells me where to find that list? 2601:645:100:1D20:0:0:0:907B (talk) 04:19, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I went ahead and added a link to List of Star Trek television series as a "See also" in an effort to avoid confusion. List articles such as that one are the appropriate place to list all Star Trek shows and films, rather than in a disambiguation page for the phrase "Star Trek". jhsounds (talk) 22:10, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
