From vfD:

From looking at the article, you would have no idea that it's about a fictional battle from Star Trek. Encyclopedic? No. [[User:Mike Storm|MikeStorm]] 18:26, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)

  • Merge and redirect—there has to be some page on Star Trek or Romulans or something that this could go in. Postdlf 19:06, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect. Mike Storm beat me to making this listing. Geogre 19:09, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Redirect somewhere. Some trekkie will know which of the thousands of more legit Star Trek articles this most pretains to. I sure don't, but it should be a more specific link than to Star Trek. Postdlf may be on track with Romulans, but I wouldn't be surprised if it could be narrowed down even more. -R. fiend 19:56, 15 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep, no reason this shouldn't be a separate article. - SimonP 00:20, Aug 16, 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. -Sean Curtin 01:53, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Useless pseudoinformation. Another one for the fan sites. Wile E. Heresiarch 02:11, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge and redirect. From what I've found, I believe the best location would be in the Romulan section of The_Neutral_Zone. As far as the TV and film versions of Trek go, at least, it is only mentioned briefly, as 'something that happened decades ago which is why we're in this situation today', in a episode or two, mostly as a plot device, so I really don't think it needs its own article (it may be covered a bit more in one Trek book, but I don't know if we want to start down that road). The one ep I'm sure it's mentioned, just for the record, is The Neutral Zone (TNG episode), but it would be hard to work this material in intelligibly--it can be made to flow into the Neutral Zone article fairly smoothly--I may be able to take a run at it in the next couple days.

  • Comment - what is it with these fans and their wittering? If we do have to keep it, can we at least change the name to show it's fictional source - e.g. Tomed Incident (Star Trek)? Average Earthman 09:43, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge & redirect- it's something that people might search for, wanting to know if it's a real event, a major fictional event, or a throwaway line, since it's referenced in multiple shows. -FZ 16:00, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge & redirect: It's a major event in the Star Trek mythos, but they've never given us more than breadcrumbs of information as to what actually happened in the Tomed Incident. --Golbez 21:49, 16 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge in Romulan (History#24th century) and redirect. Very little is actually known about the incident, certainly not enough for a separate article. -- Michael Warren | Talk 23:53, 18 Aug 2004 (UTC)
  • Merge somewhere. Vague information, little of it - not important enough for a separate article.--Ouro 13:02, 21 Aug 2004 (UTC)
