Spacedock issues

Is it safe to say that this spacedock is not the same used in "Star Trek III: The Search for Spock?" I know that Paramount reused footage from the movie for this episode, but Enterprise-D is a lot bigger than the "original" Enterprise. (Sorry, I don't count Archer's ship.)--BigMac1212 02:13, 10 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Relative to Starbase 74? --Sage Veritas (talk) 19:09, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Given that the original spacedock was orbiting Earth and this one is not? Yeah, not the same spacedock. Doniago (talk) 19:25, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict)I'm not sure what the issue is (either). It's not supposed to be the same space dock, plot-wise. --Fru1tbat (talk) 19:33, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Adding a Review Page

A link I submitted yesterday to this page was removed even though it does comply with the guidelines. It is not a promotion or an advertisement. The link was to a Professional review of this episode of Star Trek: TNG, which is on tor.com. Bonnie83 (talk) 17:08, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I don't believe it's appropriate to include reviews as external links. It would be better to create a Reception section and include any pertinent information from the review there. Doniago (talk) 20:29, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Episode Title

I thought the episode title was related to the four Bynars? They are named 00, 01, 10 and 11 (binary representations of the first four numbers in a computer sequence) and when you combine that, you get the title. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.168.129.186 (talk) 14:14, 9 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

An alternative (equally unsourced, but far more subtle) explanation for the title is that '11001001' is the binary representation of the Zilog Z80 'return' opcode. And the Bynars are trying to 'return' home. DrVxD (talk) 20:27, 25 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You know what's sad? I looked at the title and immediately thought "that's C9 in hex" followed shortly by "... the 8080/Z-80 opcode for return." I'm such a pitiful geek. Fool4jesus (talk) 16:36, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

same here. And I would bet a million dollar that this is no coincidence.

"Return" is very fitting for the plot. 174.29.115.8 (talk) 21:30, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't really matter unless you have a source. DonIago (talk) 20:56, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your articles are always fairly quick to review, I'll take this so you don't have to wait too long. ★★Retro Lord ★★ 22:08, 8 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well assuming I don't find anything else i'll pass this article tommorow. Thanks ★★Retro Lord ★★ 12:02, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rate	Attribute	Review Comment
1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.
	1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
	2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
	2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
	2c. it contains no original research.
3. Broad in its coverage:
	3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
	3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).	"It was the first occasion where actor Jonathan Frakes had the opportunity to play the trombone on the series" This is as far as I can see the only problem, is this neccessary to the article? I guess not, it might be a bit trivia-ish, so I've removed it. It'd probably be better off appearing in the episode where Minuet re-appears as the trombone playing features as a plot point there rather than something a bit throw away here. Miyagawa (talk) 11:20, 9 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
	4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
	5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
	6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
	6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
	7. Overall assessment.

Title in EBCDIC

On my page, Doniago said that this was "original research" and wondered how it is relevant to the episode. He then reverted my change. This is not original research, as any EBCDIC table on the Internet will tell you (and there are plenty) that 11001001, or C9 base 16, is "I" in the EBCDIC code system. I don't think the "I" is in itself relevant, but the fact that a computer code was used for the title links the Binars to computers, and thus to boolean logic. Look also at the names of the four Binars: zero one, one zero, zero zero, and one one, the four possible combinations using two bits. --Tim Sabin (talk) 01:35, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

If any EBCDIC table on the Internet has this information, then it should be easy enough for you to cite it. However, you haven't made it clear how it's pertinent to the episode title beyond being coincidence. We need some indication that the creators of the episode chose that number for that reason, or at least that a secondary source noted it for some reason. Otherwise it doesn't appear to be anything more than coincidence and consequently WP:TRIVIA. DonIago (talk) 03:49, 24 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It's interesting that 11001001 in decimal is 201, because the original air date according to my cable television provider was 2/01/1988. Also, the first two Bynar names mentioned are 10 followed by 01. In decimal, that would correspond to 2/1 as well. Were the writers making references to the date the episode was to air? Yes, 11001001 represents the names of the four Bynars but why in an order that makes 201? Maybe someone with better internet search skills can find a source or two for this if it is not mere coincidence. 2602:306:B866:5510:D21:3647:3483:4F83 (talk) 20:48, 3 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

It's not EBCDIC, it's an encoded warning. Reverse it to get 10010011: 1001 is binary for 9, and 0011 is 11. 9/11, you see? Creepy indeed. 2001:9E8:4612:7300:B578:229F:D82:21DA (talk) 17:22, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
