More awards[]
Michael Westmore's page has a few awards listed. I'll try and find more. -- Tough Little Ship 17:08, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks. I think the tech awards are going to pile up. In other news, looks like ST never won a Nebula award- unless I can't find the full listing. 9er 17:17, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- Star Trek: Deep Space Nine awards here(X).
Emmys complete[]
Just as an FYI to anyone coming across this. I've checked against the official Emmy db and the Emmys are now complete. I've counted each year and the totals given in the totals table are accurate, and that table came from the details table. There are 154 nominations in total. 9er 16:56, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
- Very nicely done. yay. :) -- Sulfur 17:03, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Ok, now the Emmy's are complete. Tim, where's you get the TAS info? I couldn't find daytime emmy info anywhere. 9er 18:30, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
- I used IMDb. It's also listed elsewhere on Memory Alpha, Wikipedia, and Amazon.com.--Tim Thomason 18:40, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Duh. 9er 18:44, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
Award images[]
Where could we get a photograph of one of the actual physical Scribe awards, like so [1]? I've only been able to find images of specific awards given for non-Trek works on google. Maybe if I asked the trek authors on Trek bbs if one of them could provide an image for reference? --LauraCC (talk) 17:13, December 31, 2016 (UTC)
I'll MA:BOLD this. --LauraCC (talk) 18:14, December 31, 2016 (UTC)
Split by award[]
I recommend this page be split into individual pages for each award (so "Emmys", "Oscars", etc), with categories for TV awards, film awards, music awards, and literature awards. This page is really quite long and unwieldy, and it might make it easier to edit the "nominated/won" tables if they were on individual pages rather than all being listed here. --LauraCC (talk) 15:01, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
- Quite honestly, I'm opposed to the suggestion of splitting off all awards onto their own pages...Why? Cause there are so darn (oftentimes short-lived) many that keeping track of all the awards Trek is honored with is in my view best served in the way they are now presented, especially since the vast majority of awards (such as the Oscars) only feature a handful of Trek nominations (and in more than one case even only a single one)...For editors it is more expedient to find all these awards in one location, besides ascertaining at a glance which awards are or aren't covered on MA – the TOC does the trick quite nicely, whereas the "easier to edit tables" argument does not apply here as you don't have to edit the whole page, but rather only the award section in question (and that doesn't change/improve when split off to own pages). That said, I'm conceding the point in the case of the Emmys; that section has become so large that a split onto its own page is warranted, akin to The Big Bang Theory, Battlestar Galactica, Star Wars, 40 Years of Star Trek: The Collection et.al pages which were split off from their "mother" page(s) for that specific reason. I fear that a split as proposed will result in a hard-to-navigate labyrinth of a myriad of "micropages". Perhaps amending the suggestion to when a section reaches a certain yet-to-be-determined critical mass is more opportune. My two cents--Sennim (talk) 06:33, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
I'll buy that.
Beyond splitting off the Emmys and other longer sections, would you also be amenable to a further page split along "film/TV" awards (canon productions) and "book/comic" awards (apocryphal merchandise) lines? --LauraCC (talk) 12:54, 14 May 2024 (UTC)
- No, not really, no... The added value of such a split eludes me completely to be honest, partly for the same reasons. Firstly, there are very, very few "apocryphal merchandise" awards (only the Scribe/HG Wells Awards come to mind out of hand, of which the latter has already become defunct decades ago), so a split off would hardly, if even at all, improve the main page's accessibility in a meaningful manner; Secondly, my argument of having all awards available, especially for inexperienced editors, on one page remains in full force. Those few awards that would be split off stand a real danger of becoming orphan pages. And yes, I know (disambiguation) links and/or portal pages can be created, but what is the use of creating two or three more steps before a (novice) editor can get to where he/she wants to be, even if he/she is even aware that the page exists? – turning MA into a digital escape room benefits no one (as an old hand editor myself, I can to this day speak from experience; I still find navigating the category/template pages quite challenging to say the least)...
- As for the "other long sections", for now I'm in favor of a Emmys split off only. I at most consider the Saturn Awards long enough to warrant a discussion, but not yet a split off.--Sennim (talk) 07:23, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
Okay. Anyone else favor this? -LauraCC (talk) 03:29, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
- For what it's worth, my opinion is essentially identical to what Sennim has described. I would oppose splitting this page in favor of indivudal pages for each individual awards; doing so would not really improve the current single-page experience, and would likely introduce challenges of discoverability and usefulness for future editors. I also oppose the idea of splitting the page along thematic lines (such as "film/TV" vs "literary/book/comic") -- if only because you've got award entities like the Hugo Awards that cover multiple formats & themes of works, so would introduce complexity as to where they could and should be meaningfully cateogrized. All that said, I do see the usefulness of splitting off the Emmy Awards to its own page and, for the same rationale outlined earlier, would favor that split only. --TommyRaiko (talk) 23:24, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
Okay, so we appear to have consensus on the Emmy split. -LauraCC (talk) 01:15, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
- OK, I've split the Emmy Awards section off to its own page. 🖖 Mr. Starfleet Command (talk • contribs) 22:45, 28 November 2024 (UTC)
Saturn and Scribe awards are the only two other awards that seem to be getting close to own page status. -LauraCC (talk) 03:51, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
Awards vs honors[]
Just curious; what, aside from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan's recent inclusion in the National Film Registry, would be considered an honor, rather than an award? I suppose lifetime achievement awards are kind of both, as they might be specially awarded without kicking other nominees out of the running. -LauraCC (talk) 23:49, 17 December 2024 (UTC)
