Copyright violation? [edit]
Er, can we have all that copyrighted material? Isn't this a copyright violation? --Spikey 13:45, 6 Jan 2004 (UTC)
Useless or futile? [edit]
Is it "Resistance is useless!" or "Resistance is futile!"? -- Éric
Merged [edit]
I've merged Vogon to Races from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy —Quarl (talk) 2006-02-06 21:41Z
Move to pluralize [edit]
Should this page be moved to Vogons? Many (but not all) fictional alien species are titled in the plural. —OverMyHead 00:02, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
- Are you sure? Daleks, Klingons, Cylons, Balrogs and Martians all redirect to the singular. What are your examples for plural-titled alien articles? Vogons already exists, as a redirect - you'd have to ask an Admin to do it for you, and currently i can't see that the move ould get OK'd. Also, the current naming convention prefers the singular, And Vogon doesn't fit the reasons for exception. Totnesmartin (talk) 08:49, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
Vogon poetry obscene? [edit]
Given that the poem contains references to micturition and "turlingdromes", is it safe to say that we may be able to classify some Vogon poetry as obscene? (This may be original research, but it does fit the most popular Vogon poem...) Orville Eastland (talk) 00:31, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- Obscenity is in the eye of the beholder, isn't it? I'd guess that anyone not understanding "micturations" would assume it's a made-up word, like "gabbleblotchits" or whatever. Anyone who does know what it means is probably medically or scientifically inclined anyway and less likely to be offended. Hey, should we go and ask this at Belgium?
