Talk:USS Tian An Men

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

[edit] Spelling mistakes?

While casually looking through Memory Alpha, I've noticed that in quite a few articles mentioning the Tian An Men, it uses the mis-spelling Tian NAN Men. Should the articles that mention the Tian An Men be reviewed, and edited if they have the mis-spelt name?TimberWolf 20:58, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

According to the okudagram, "Tian Nan Men" is correct, according to the script for that episode {"Redemption II") the spelling was also "Tian Nan Men" (pronounced "TEE-IN-ah-men"), whereas, "In the Cards", the pronunciation guide also spelled it "Tian Nan Men" (pronounced "tee-an NAN men"), while the scripted dialog spells simply spit out "Tiananmen". For a comparative study of this situation, in the case of the USS Jenolan, again both script and okudagram spelled it as the article is named, which is perhaps how we should treat this as well. --Alan 21:18, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
