Talk:Duty shift

Do we need individual articles for alpha/beta/gamma/day/night etc. shifts? I think it is neater if we summarise all these terms under a single page for "Duty Shift."

Also (and not sure if this is really an issue but thought I'd mention it) bridge watches and duty shifts aren't usually the same thing, (there are usually 2 or 3 watches within a shift.) I'm sure I've seen an example that backs up Starfleet taking this approach (something like "Riker commands the first watch of the Day shift...") but I can't remember the source for this. – CommodoreFisher 18:03, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
