[edit] Michael Shanks Rumor
Rumor proves to be untrue from: http://www.michaelshanks-online.com/news/newsarchive014.shtml
18 December 2006 Spin-off rumors put to rest
Over the last few days there has been some speculation regarding a 3rd series in the Stargate franchise, and the reported news that Michael Shanks has been approached to star in the series.
We have just received confirmation from Michael via his publicist that the information regarding his reported involvement in the series is "completely unfounded and unsubstantiated. No one has contacted Michael with any such news/offerings/ideas, etc."
As far as Michael is concerned, this is "just an unfounded rumor."

[edit] 2008
2008 is one month away and the article says it is still in pre-production. I thought it was going to start production if mid-2007. What the hell is going on?! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.226.78.201 (talk) 21:08, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
It was supposed to start production in 2007 but they can't start it yet because they have to make the SG1 movies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.10.17.166 (talk • contribs) 20:38, 9 December 2007
- Well, then it should be changed from early 2008 to unknown. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.208.228.170 (talk) 21:07, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
Just a guess, but the writers strike may have something to do with it not yet going into production.87.194.114.231 (talk) 09:21, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
- As far as know, Brad Wright is a US-American who can't write anything until the strike is over. I think I even read that in an interview. – sgeureka t•c 11:07, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Picture
I don't think that Image:StargateUniverse.jpg should be included as it's not the actual logo for the show... is it? Purple Paint (talk) 15:54, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
- It's fanart. I don't remember the policy on having fanart in articles but I haven't seen much those images recently... --Tone 16:14, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
- I really don't think we should use "fanart" since...well, it just doesn't make any sense to use it. I'll remove it and if someone disagrees then they can state their case here. Konman72 (talk) 19:40, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
- I agree with the removal. It was a nice image, but it gives the wrong impression of being official. – sgeureka t•c 22:02, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
- Agreed, it has no use in the article - Dinnerbone (Talk/Cont) 03:13, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] New News
don't tell anyone i told you, it's leaked off the site and was taken offline, i believe its part of a viral marketing conspiracy ;) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.28.69.5 (talk) 15:26, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
It can be found on this website. Scroll down. [1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.106.146.140 (talk) 15:29, 24 January 2008 (UTC)
- A google-cache of a forum post of a cut-and-paste of the text of an article that was never actually published ... I don't think you can get any further from the definition of 'reliable source' if you tried. Please don't reinsert this into the article. --Maelwys (talk) 17:24, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Requested move
Other "Universe" articles are being converted to (franchise) articles, (Highlander (franchise) and The Matrix (franchise) for example), this one should probably do it as well. - LA @ 10:32, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
- I didn't see that this was another venture. I thought it was an abandoned main article. - LA @ 10:41, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Leaked Series Premise
I am sure that someof you have hear about it. The plot details for the series were leaked on GateWorld and deleted. Should we add them to the article even though it was not supposed to be out yet? SG-17 (talk) 21:42, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
- If you can find a reliable reference to cite then yes, otherwise I'd wait until we've got something firm. Tom walker (talk) 17:15, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
Finally, GateWorld has released the information they have at [2]. Richard Jackson (talk) 17:30, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Question
"It is "a completely separate, third entity"[3] – as opposed to Stargate Atlantis, which was created as a spin-off from the first series Stargate SG-1."
So what was the second entity? If it was Atlantis, the phrase "as opposed to" is incorrect; if it wasn't, then the second one should be mentioned. Vimescarrot (talk) 15:55, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- SG:Universe is a third entity that happens to be separate, as opposed to Atlantis as the second entity that was not fully separate. The grammar can probably be tweaked, yes, but it's not really high on my list to ponder about. :-) – sgeureka t•c 18:18, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- K, thanks :) 90.212.120.95 (talk) 19:53, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
