Suggestions edit

Need to add the following.

What? No Neutronium? It must be added but I don't have the time. Wikipedia it.

Red Matter

Omega whatever from a voyager episode. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.131.86.47 (talk) 03:40, 30 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

Added the omega molecule. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ItazuEstamaru (talkcontribs) 12:44, 13 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Diburnium. From TOS "By Any Other Name." Spok is examining a bar on a prison window, and notes that it is "similar to diburnium, but considerably more dense." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 157.201.92.42 (talk) 18:57, 27 January 2015 (UTC)Reply

Trilithium edit

I think I can remember some TNG episode where terrorists tried to extract trilithium remnants from the warp drive, and it was said that it was very unstable and rather explosive. In that episode the enterprise was abandoned because it was cleaned by some green ray/forcefield. anyone remembers this too (so we can add it)? or was the material something else? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.61.9.75 (talk) 09:34, 22 March 2013 (UTC) The TNG episode is called Starship Mine. In that episode, trilithium was a byproduct of the warp drive and the target of the thieves during the barion sweep. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.193.94.40 (talk) 19:38, 30 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Transparent aluminum article edit

Thought this might be of interest,"Transparent Aluminum" at Science Daily.--T. Anthony (talk) 08:57, 28 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

this may not be the best place to announce this, but i added it to the section on transparent aluminum. I suspect this material deserves its own article, being a possible new state of matter. i would prefer someone with more science writing experience attempt to write the article.

The article on transparent aluminum is largely inaccurate. 'Ceramic aluminum oxynitride,' ie. 'transparent aluminum' has existed since the early 80's and is in use by the military, but is somewhat expensive to manufacture. It is not a 'new state of matter.'

The article already covered that material as well as the "new state of matter". I have moved the paragraphs on the various real-world materials into chronological order, so the ceramic one now comes first. Thanks for the sources; I have cited those, and explained both materials more clearly. – Fayenatic London 18:10, 12 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

warranted link? edit

There is a link to an actor (Alex Henteloff) in a sentence about the novelisation of a film in section Transparent aluminium. I am unaware of other actors in this position in novels. Alanthehat (talk) 09:41, 3 May 2014 (UTC)Reply

Article title edit

@Nadirali: "Notable" is now stated in the lead paragraph, but is taken for granted in the title. Please stop renaming the page as "notable". If it was necessary, then every page in Category:Lists would have "notable" in the title. – Fayenatic London 23:18, 24 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Look, there are too many thing to list on Wikipedia, but only the notable ones get listed and titled have a look at List of notable Canadians as an example.--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 02:33, 25 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Huh? That has been a redirect to List of Canadians for the last six years. – Fayenatic London 08:38, 25 August 2015 (UTC)Reply
OK but we got List of exceptional asteroids.--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 01:30, 26 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Tholian silk edit

The link for this directs to an article on 'The Tholian Web' episode of TOS which does not mention silk. Jokem (talk) 04:30, 17 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
