message: What about this "Star Trek 2.0 on G4TV?ChuckDizzle 02:14, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Star Trek 2.0 is just syndication of The Original Series with a chat room, a stock market, "Trek Stats", and trivia shown on screen while watching. You can join the chat and the Spock Market by signing up on the G4 website, but as I said, it's just The Original Series with that stuff added in. Jondy 00:40, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

message: Where does the talk about scripts in this article come from? I thought the book only included two. 24.158.134.254 13:20, 16 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Just to say, the book contains scripts for In Thy Image and The Child, but also includes two page plot summaries for all the other episodes listed. Miyagawa (talk) 11:14, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

replies: text: If it was a new book, maybe - but we're talking about a book that was published 11 years ago. I'm fine with it. MikeWazowski (talk) 05:27, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Some parts of the article are written like an advertisement?

message: Should we note somewhere that this series was going to be called "Star Trek II" (despite the confusion it would bring with the movie of the same name years later)? I believe "Phase II" was the fan-selected title to help distinguish the aborted TV series from "The Wrath of Khan." 207.238.52.162 (talk) 20:17, 8 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Star Trek II (2010)

message: The article says that the role of Will Decker, which eventually went to Stephen Collins in the Motion Picture, was uncast in the TV series.  Yet YouTube has a clip from test footage showing Captain Kirk talking to a character played by Robert Reed.  Does anyone know if the character he's playing in the clip is supposed to be Decker?  And regardless of whether or not he's Decker, isn't the clip proof that Reed, an established actor, was involved with Phase II somehow, and should therefore be at least mentioned in the article?  I can provide a link if anybody wants verification of the clip, but I didn't know if that would be appropriate.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.196.130.2 (talk) 03:51, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: The clip in question is not Star Trek related, albeit the men wear shirts which resemble the uniforms. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdiAi6EyBJc  It is a clip from the 1974 TV movie PRAY FOR THE WILDCATS which featured Shatner, Andy Griffith, and Robert Reed.

thread_title:  Robert Reed as Will Decker? 

message: It seems to me that each article related to pop culture topics like this gets into too much minutia about what came before and after and essentially repeats the same information from one article to another. This section typifies that. I suggest it simply sum up by saying something like, "In response to the unexpected surge of popularity of the original Star Trek TV series in syndication, and the growing and vocal fanbase in the 1970s, Star Trek owners Paramount pictures made several attempts to bring the show back in one form or another, including commissioning treatments and scripts for film projects including The God Thing and Planet of the Titans. In 1977, after all of these had been cancelled..." And the titles there could be linked to appropriate articles with all the repetition.

thread_title:  Background Section 

message: The use of citations in this article is odd and I don't know quite how to fix it. The cite's in the article text appear under Notes while the actual sources to which the notations refer are under References. The former are not "Notes" are they?

replies: text: See WP:FNNR for information about titles for sections on citations. What you've described is pretty common. Miyagawa (talk) 20:38, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Notes vs. References??? 

message: There's a whole paragraph here about a fanfilm series which took some elements from the proposed series and produced one of its scripts. I would suggest this be minimized or removed entirely as it's quite trivial.MrNeutronSF (talk) 06:35, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Legacy: Fanfilm 

message: I don't quite know how to handle this, because the actual title of the proposed series was STAR TREK II. The title STAR TREK PHASE II appears to have been an early name which was quickly dropped. Surviving production documents testify to this, and the title detailed (with heavy citation) in Sherilyn Connelly's 2019 book The First Star Trek Movie. Should an article employ a briefly used working title in place of the actual title? I understand that since there is a motion picture titled STAR TREK II: THE WRATH OF KHAN some disambiguation is desirable, but this is an encyclopedia. This article really ought to be titled something like STAR TREK II (TV SERIES ATTEMPT).

replies: text: The lead sentence explains the differences between the two. The article is entitled "Star Trek: Phase II" because that is the most common name for the project, per the WP:COMMONNAME guideline. BilCat (talk) 23:45, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Show Title is Incorrect 

message: Why do so many Wiki page editors confuse the words "titled" and "entitled?" They're not synonyms. A TV show isn't entitled. It's titled. This is basic English, folks.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.196.162.105 (talk) 23:21, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  "Entitled" 

message: Hello everyone. I would like to submit my website Forgotten Trek as a source or external link. Other than Memory Alpha, which is already linked, Forgotten Trek is the most comprehensive source of information about Star Trek: Phase II online, and has been for 15 years. You can find all Phase II-related stories here. Of particular interest are "The Making of Star Trek: Phase II", "Designing the Phase II Enterprise" and "Designing the Twenty-Third Century Anew". I also have story outlines for four of the planned Phase II episodes: "In Thy Image", "Lord Bobby's Obsession", "The Prisoner", and "To Attain the All". Ottens (talk) 13:02, 18 February 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Link to Forgotten Trek 

message: Which is correct, "Are Unheard Memories Sweet?" (2004-01-13 12:59:20 (UTC)) or "Are Unheard Melodies Sweet?" (2006-02-18 01:48:10 (UTC)) ? The book "STAR TREK History and Us" and the others says "Melodies" (google books, Internet Archive Search), but the book "STAR TREK PHASE II the lost series" says "Memories"(Internet Archive Search).
