Image edit

I am going to update the image as it is quite dated from when he was a child. I will move the old child image somewhere else in the article in case someone posts here if they think it should be kept. Ejfetters 07:19, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

The purpose of the image is to _introduce_ the character, generally an early picture is the best way to do that and the image should not be updated. This case is unusual though, and there is a reasonable argument to be made that a later image gives a better overall and general representation of the character. In any case if people do change the image they *must* also update the caption and not falsely claim the image is from Emissary when it is clearly not. -- 109.77.203.102 (talk) 19:35, 1 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Rewrite edit

I've started a rewrite to remove the in-universe perspective. I plan on adding sections about the character's concept / development (of which there are ample sources), criticism and reviews, and additional info on Cirroc Lofton's role on Trek. Please feel free to contribute. voorts (talk/contributions) 03:13, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Sources source sources. Books magazines etc. Find sources and you're good, rewrite without sources and you will be severely limited in how far you can get. Any improvements would be welcome (especially a Reception section, or other out of universe analysis). If you've already got sources please do list them here. Please make gradual incremental changes. (The Internet Archive especially the library and magazine rack can potentially be very useful, if you've already got plenty of sources you probably know that already. I'd also probably try to make use of the reviews from Tor.com and The AV Club and looking at references in other good quality DS9 articles might help point to even more sources.) Best of luck. -- 109.77.203.102 (talk) 18:57, 1 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
