Hey. I was just playing around with some logo ideas. Let me know what you guys think:
Oh, and the Memory Delta thing... I guess that's a whole other discussion. lol I remember there was a discussion about renaming the wiki a long time ago, but I couldn't find it. --Hawku 08:48, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- I like the Memory Delta one :P --Luke80 09:29, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, nice work Hawku I really like those logos. --The NCC Factor Talk 15:14, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- They're great, Hawku. But maybe to avoid more confusion between us and Alpha/Beta, and to identify our purpose, how 'bout Memory Fandom? --TimPendragon 18:04, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- I'm confused, why Delta? Isn't Gamma the next letter? Anyway, yeah, the logo(s) are well-made and all, but I don't see any connection to "fandom" like in the current, subdued, but not as good logo.--Tim Thomason 19:11, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- An Ambassador class starship has more of a fan connection? Huh? --TimPendragon 23:16, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- It's an Ambassador-class? I can't really tell, and thought it was something made up. Oh well.--Tim Thomason 23:30, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

- I like these as well. The Memory Delta one seems better because less letters... An idea: Is there any way to put STEU in the box where it says "Memory Delta" and then put, underneath it, "Star Trek: Expanded Universe" like the current logo? My 2 cents worth. -- usscantabrian 23:19, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- Well, this brings up the question of whether we want to keep the name "Expanded Universe," which has led to some confusion in the past. In Star Wars terms, EU refers to the novels, games and other "official" stuff, which has confused some folks on Memories Alpha and Beta as to our function. "Expanded Universe" doesn't necessarily say "Fandom" to most people, myself included. --TimPendragon 23:22, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- Cool, that makes sense. The only thing is, Memory Delta or Gamma do nothing re: "Fandom" either, so... it might be a discussion we all need to have to come up with a name that encompasses what we're doing here. -- usscantabrian 23:26, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- (EC w/ usscantabrian) I was talking to someone on the MA chatroom about this site, and they confused STEU with Memory Beta, so it is a genuine misconception. Something that says "fandom" or "fan" in some way would be a better way to show our main focus, in my opinion.--Tim Thomason 23:30, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- Yep, I agree with you, Tim. "Fandom" (or something similar) needs to be in the title to make it clear. Memory Alpha and Memory Beta even don't make sense to me too much but... I'm a bit dense at times LOL. What about "Star Trek: Fandom Universe"? On the other side of things, Fandom can imply people who are just fans of the show and not actually contributing fan fiction (or whatever they contribute) to the universe... -- usscantabrian 23:32, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, (I'm not sure which Tim you're agreeing with, but anyway), I made a small Forum:Name to discuss those issues. Cool.--Tim Thomason 23:42, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
