message: In the film, her name is Shau'ri.  In Stargate SG-1, her name is Sha're.  Since this is the beginning of SG-1, shouldn't her name be Sha're in the article? --Dani 20:09, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Let's put an end to this revert war, shall we?  The Talk page is here so that we don't need to communicate via the little Note tags on edits, and for discussing changes.
Now, plain and simple, in this episode Daniel and Carter state, in dialogue, that the reason Daniel can not dial any of the addresses he found on the Abydonian cartouche is that, as a result of stellar drift, the addresses are no longer accurate.  However, in later episodes it is stated, again in dialogue, that DHD's make periodic and automatic updates to compensate for stellar drift.  I am more than willing to concede that this might not be a "Goof" per se, since for all we know it's intentional (And therefor not a mistake), but it is a clear contradiction between the episodes with no explanation.  These articles are meant to be more than simple plot summaries, they're meant to give additional information on the episode and the series, and though I really do hate the articles with Trivia sections that are longer than the actual synopsis (And I edit them down whenever I can), the fact is that two episodes in contradiction deserves to be noted.  I'm not trying to say why they contradict, or the result, since that would be my own opinion and conjecture, but their contradiction is not my own thoughts.
You asked for a source, and I can't give you one; I don't know how you source a TV episode.  This is stated plainly in dialogue, and if you know how to source on-air dialogue I'll pop it right into the article, but otherwise, it will have to remain in the same state as the entire rest of the article; there's no notes on any other sections, including the plot summary, but nobody contests their authenticity (Except for some of the Trivia notes), since they're from the episode itself.

replies: text: You're interpreting it's a goof/contradiction - this is likely so.. it could just as easily be not, however. Sources are required for content, if you can find a verifiable one that suggests this is a contradiction.. then cite it.. otherwise it doesn't meet the criteria for inclusion: verifiability.

replies: text: Wasn't it said that, under normal circumstances (i.e. without tampering by Ba'al), there are centuries or more between these updates?  I think so, though my memory isn't perfect of course. -- Noneofyourbusiness 03:39, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

text: I know it would logically take millenia, which is why I said "or more". However, Chloe said "I thought those were supposed to happen only once every couple of hundred years." If it takes a very, very long time then it's not necessarily a contradiction because either the update simply hadn't occurred recently enough for addresses other than Abydos and Heliopolis to still be vaild or the DHD on Earth didn't receive the update because it wasn't connected to the stargate for millenia. Edit: Oh, wait. You mean the Abydos DHD, which was still connected to its stargate the whole time. It's possible nonetheless that the last update was so long ago that many addresses were invalid. And, of course, the producers hadn't come up with the idea of correlative updates at the time of the first episode. So if it's contradiction at least it's an understandable one. Thanks for bringing it up, I hadn't noticed that. -- Noneofyourbusiness 04:10, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

message: I believe this is the first time "MacGyver" is used as a verb, to describe the action of cobbling together disparate parts to produce a working solution (for some task). The usage was an homage to Angus MacGyver, the character made famous by Actor Richard Dean Anderson who plays Jack O'Neill.
CARTER: (Smiling beautifully, and growing more excited with each second) This is how they controlled it [the Call Home device]. It took us 15 years and 3 supercomputers to MacGyver a system for the gate on Earth.
