In Doctor Who there is an alien species called the Gelth. It was to this group that Rose was referring in "The Christmas Invasion." I'm changing the entry to reflect the error. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Doctor_Who_monsters_and_aliens#Gelth , http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Unquiet_Dead Simonus 14:41, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
- How can you know this? Billie Piper has a mouth that brings about all sorts of stray sound effects. I think she says "GELF", and that Red Dwarf fans are determined to hear it as GELTH because they don't like the idea of the two series overlapping. There's a TARDIS in the model footage for Marooned, people! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 138.37.7.247 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Other shows
I've removed all mention of other shows from the article - there is still no corroboration for the suggestion that the phrase was used in SeaQuest (and even so, the use in that one other show would not really justify stating that it's a general sci-fi concept as opposed to Dwarf-specific), and the Doctor Who reference is based on a simple misunderstanding by Danny John Jules on a DVD commentary. The word "GELF" is never used on Doctor Who (just read the shooting scripts), and I get the impression that someone particularly mischievous is attempting to force the suggestion upon the Wiki entry.

- Um, Daggers (seaQuest DSV episode). I know a Wikipedia article is not a reliable source, but the episode itself is a sufficient source, though it is currently only available via illegal copies - a DVD release has been promised, vaguely, before 2008. Also, I am sure I have seen the term referring to real engineered organisms like GloFish - don't ask for a source as I obviously don't recall or I would cite it.
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Red Dwarf EmoHawk.jpg
Image:Red Dwarf EmoHawk.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
