This is just a note to everyone when writing articles to be careful about which terms you use. There is a difference between saying Earth and saying human, if it's a human colony then it's formed by humans (from Earth or not, though this may be specified). Additionally Earth doesn't necessarily equal human (there's the Silurians, Sea Devils etc that also call Earth home). --Tangerineduel 16:16, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Archivist's notes

Not quite sure why Tangerineduel would have buried such an important policy declaration at the reference desk rather than the Panopticon, but I'm moving it to Panopticon archives so that it gets highlighted as a bit of policy.
