Memory Alpha wiki
I watch a lot of Star Trek. There’s really just something comforting about the show to me, and I don’t mind watching the same episodes over and over. I’m usually doing something else while it’s on, like surfing the web or reading, but there are always little things about the show that I want to look up. Maybe I’ll recognize an actor and want to know what other characters they have played on the show (most guests have had several appearances), or maybe I just want to look up some earlier episode the show references. Of course I could always run over to StarTrek.com for the official word, but I’ve found that MemoryAlpha provides a much nicer way to find those Trek answers. A wiki is the perfect way for big groups of disparate contributors to create reference documentation, and MemoryAlpha provides a wonderful reference for all things Trek.

Cool! I took the opportunity to look up Hora’hn, the fertility statue sold in shops on Risa.
That site is over the top.
