You seem to think that references to canon Star Trek are somehow unreal and irrelevant.  Arugably, the entire article is 'lingualbabble': this is a constructed language, based on the Star Trek fictional universe: thus, the reference – and an apt, verifiable one at that – is completely appropriate.  This conforms to both general Wikipedia guidelines and those of the Wp Star Trek wikiproject.  This reference is no less germane than (in the same section) individuals who have been reared in the language and the flotsam of other refs throughout the article.  Alternatively, the notations can be placed in "Phonology" or in a tweaked intro.  However, until compelled otherwise, there is absolutely no reason why this reference shouldn't remain and will.  Adapt.  | talk |
