Would it be prudent to break out the parts of this article about the Dnyarri Slave Revolt and the Doctrinal Conflict, and put the information in their own articles?

sidebar

Excellent work on the sidebar, mmrn.. mrmmnhrmm... m- oh forget it. Good job, though. Do you think it should be copied into its constituent articles, or just left on the main ur-quan article? Either way, there should be a link back to the main ur-quan article from every 'child' page. -Fadookie 04:53, 26 Oct 2004 (CEST)

Ok, there is now the template UrQuanNav which can easily be stuck into any Ur-Quan related page. It was a bit of a hack to get it to nest with existing graphics (like on the Dreadnought, Marauder, and Sa-Matra pages), but it works and I don't know of a more correct way of doing it.

Other uses of "Ur-Quan"

I've added a message at the top refering to other uses for "Ur-Quan". I know there's an entire paragraph about this a bit further below, but (in Wikipedia style) such a message should be brief and at the top of the page, to redirect people getting to this page looking for another use of the term (Ur-Quan refering to only the Kzer-Za probably). I didn't go as far as deleting that paragraph, but it does need some attention now. - SvdB 04:32, 18 Apr 2005 (CEST)

Neither the original article nor my expanded version is solely about the "Brown" (pre-genetic engineering) Ur-Quan; both cover aspects of the Ur-Quan species as a whole before and after that, while leaving aside specific details about the Kzer-Za and Kohr-Ah (and I don't think it'd be good to make the article have an arbitrary cut-off in the timeline after the creation of the two castes, as the later information legitimately applies to all Ur-Quan). I amended the redirect section to reflect this.
