Memory Beta, non-canon Star Trek Wiki

A friendly reminder regarding spoilers! At present the expanded Trek universe is in a period of major upheaval with the continuations of Discovery and Prodigy, the advent of new eras in gaming with the Star Trek Adventures RPG, Star Trek: Infinite and Star Trek Online, as well as other post-57th Anniversary publications such as the ongoing IDW Star Trek comic and spin-off Star Trek: Defiant. Therefore, please be courteous to other users who may not be aware of current developments by using the {{spoiler}}, {{spoilers}} OR {{majorspoiler}} tags when adding new information from sources less than six months old (even if it is minor info). Also, please do not include details in the summary bar when editing pages and do not anticipate making additions relating to sources not yet in release. THANK YOU

How many pages are there on the Memory Alpha wiki, such as the one for the Aammazaran species, which are not also on this wiki? -- unsigned

In general, the only pages on Memory Alpha that would not be eligible to be versioned to Memory Beta are pages about actors, directors, writers and production staff who worked on canon episodes and films but have not participated in any tie-ins, or some of their specific listings of episodes, nondescript merchandising, people and dates regarding topics which are not part of licensed publications such as books or games -- captainmike Wiki-wordmarkX 03:01, August 25, 2020 (UTC)
(and we do have info on Aaamazzarites and Zaranites, if that's what you're asking) -- captainmike Wiki-wordmarkX 03:02, August 25, 2020 (UTC)
The alien species you mentioned were called "Aammazaran" in the Star Trek: The Official Fan Club Magazine issue 56 and "Zaranite" in the Star Trek IV Sourcebook Update. I assume we favor the name Zaranite because RPG book is an in-universe source, while the magazine is an out-of-universe source. The name Aammazaran is obviously a misremembered version of "Aaamazzarite", carelessly applied to a different alien species by some production staffer, so I'm glad we use the name Zaranite. --NetSpiker (talk) 14:22, August 25, 2020 (UTC)
