Background

• The entries four to six are given to take place in 2375. But since there is a clear reference that they occur in the vicinity of VOY episode: "Message in a Bottle", the year is wrong as the events of the corresponding episode take place in 2374. Hence, the placement of this story in both, the The Star Trek Fiction Timeline and the Memory Beta Chronology has been modified to the corresponding months in 2374.
• Anne Carey mentions that as of June, 2375 (predated to 2374 as mentioned above), there have been two weddings on board Voyager and one child born (Naomi Wildman) at the time of VOY episode: "Message in a Bottle".
