What will MA do?

[c0rnedfr0g]

With the seemingly new Trek universe, what will the folks over at Memory Alpha do???

Will there be a separate website for this new stuff? Will they try to intricately and delicately explain everything as existing in the same universe?

Answers?

Well, I certainly hope they don't lose their cool.
We should send over a tray of sandwiches because they clearly have a lot of work to do!

They could just start a site called "Memory Abrams".

Eh, depending on how annoyed they are they could just call it "M----------g Abrams."

They'll just have extra notations indicating that things come from the new movie(s). Sort of like they'll put (Mirror Universe) for the regular characters' counterparts.

With the seemingly new Trek universe...

What makes you so sure it's a "new Trek universe"? Abrams and co. have already said Star Trek is not a reboot or reimagining, but a "reinvigoration".

Poh-ta-toe/pah-ta-da; same thing for all intents and purposes.

They have the "original" memory-alpha.org.

They have memory-beta (startrek.wikia.com) for all nop-canon stuff.

If they are not able to reconcile AbramsTrek with memory-alpha --and I'm not saying they won't be able to; I won't know until I know more about (or see) the film -- then maybe they will create a "memory-gamma".

We are in the works of discussing how to handle the new info and how to integrate it into already existing (and possibly contradicting) articles. We've survived TOS-R, we'll also keep the cool for Star Trek '09

If this ends up being a "everything is as it should be" ending and it's a paradox, then there shouldn't be any problems. Time travel can fix (or screw up) lots of things!

What confuses me is if this IS in our "Alpha" universe, is this supposed to be taking place after the events from The Cage - from 2254 to early 2260's?

It seems most likely that we're dealing with an alternate timeline, but MA also includes information about Yesterday's Enterprise and Year of Hell, so I imagine any data on Trek XI will get a "In Nero's altered timeline..." disclaimer.
