Can I add Star Trek lore related data to the wiki?

No! We're sorry, but this is a Star Trek Online site, not a Star Trek site. In the interest of avoiding STO-Intel.org becoming crowded with useless data that's not relevant to the game, any posted lore that's not directly related to the story line of Star Trek online will be removed.

Feel free to head over to Memory Alpha for all of your non game related Star Trek needs.

Can you add (insert feature here) to the wiki or another part of the site?

We can sure try! Head on over to our forums and post your idea in the suggestion section. The software that runs the wiki is quite robust. We're always looking for new features to add. If you have any requests we'd be glad to hear them.

Can you guys put (insert feature here) into the game?

No. We are not in any way associated with Cryptic Studios. This site was started by fans, it's run by fans and it's fans like you who keep the info updated. If you have requests for the game developers please post them over at the official forums.
