"Where to watch" entries
I wish to add new entries for the "Where to Watch" infobox, how is this done? --GnrlDisarray 22:42, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

History of editing
Forgive me if this is in the wrong place--I'm new. Is there a place to see the editing history of a page? I know there is one for recent changes across all of memory-alpha, but I'm not sure if there is one for a single page. DeepSpace9 04:38, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
- The tab at the top of the article that says "history" --OuroborosCobra talk 04:41, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
Error in News Section
The article from 18th May reads "Tom Hank's", it should read "Tom Hanks'" 60.234.254.84 13:48, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
- It looks correct to me. -- sulfur 14:00, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
Today I discovered there was a Picture of the Day by scrolling to the bottom of Portal:Main. Picture of the Day should be above Browse Memory Alpha and below Star Trek is here! Want to know more?
This way, I think, Picture of the Day will see more action. --Scripps Winborne Whorton Taylor 06:42, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- The most important feature is the "Browse" feature. PoD could use a different placement but it is not there. Maybe after DYK but no higher because other information such as news and featured article are more important and can actually be edited while the PoD can't really be changed much since the descriptions pretty much are what they need to be. — Morder 06:48, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
The Picture of the Day reminds me of APOD, Astronomy Picture of the Day, except Memory Alpha has a PoD. I'm just saying, it couldn't hurt to try it a month, give the PoD more attention. A picture is said to be worth a thousand words. Our PoD could just be the star that'll let someone go "Second Star To The Right, Straight On Till Morning." --Scripps Winborne Whorton Taylor 07:16, 22 May 2009 (UTC)
- IMO, I would like to see the PotD higher on the page, perhaps swapped with the "Editing Memory Alpha" section, or above the "Today in Trek History" section. Just a thought. -- TrekFan Talk 13:53, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
- I would like to see it right under article of the week. DhaliaUnsung 14:46, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Related Wikia
Where is this template? I wanted to try out some ideas I had about it on my sandbox page but can't find it. - Archduk3 23:46, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
The related wikia one, or whatever it is that gets that box down there. - Archduk3 23:54, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
- Ah - Portal:Main/Panels There's a list of panels on the main page... — Morder (talk) 23:59, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
Thanks. :) - Archduk3 00:01, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
Virus software
Anyone else getting that redirect to the 'antivirus software' site? I haven't downloaded it to see myself, but I'm fairly sure it's a virus. I ran across it on Wesley Crusher and Invasive Procedures (episode)--97.126.94.44 09:53, 28 July 2009 (UTC)(AKA Vercalos)
