What's the source for the World War III cause? -- Sci 04:34 21 May 2006 UTC

ENT production art -- Kobi 10:28, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

The same production art that inaccurately lists First Contact as happening in 2061 and describes Colonel Green as an "eco-terrorist" when "Demons"/"Terra Prime" established him to have been out to kill those suffering from radiation poisoning with apparently no concern for the ecology? And which lists Zeframe Cochrane as disappearing in 2117 when ENT's first episode established that he dedicated the Warp Five Complex in 2119? -- Sci 15:43 21 May 2006 UTC

Yeah, that one. Unlike those you listed, however, the 2026 date has yet to be contested in canon. The others have been deemed mistakes and ignored. --From Andoria with Love 21:56, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

Am I the only one who fails to see the logic in accepting as canonical any original information from so obviously flawed a piece of production art? -- Sci 04:05 22 May 2006 UTC

While this is definitely not the most accurate piece of production artwork, it does offer a reasonable explanation for why people of Spock's time considered The Eugenics Wars and WWIII to be the same conflict. They're about the same issues, and some historians might've felt that WWIII was just a continuation of the battles that began with Khan and his supermen in the 1990s. By Picard's time, though, historians have revised their thinking and consider the two events as seperate. Sith Priestess 01:11, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
