Talk:Sir Richter

Commander Riker

Other than the name, is there any other reason why Sir Richter should resemble Riker from The Next Generation? I don't think that pic that's there resembles him at all. AngusM 02:51, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

I think it sorta resembles him. If it was only the pic and the name I'd agree with you. But nearly every other character in Serpent's Hold being from TNG and his relationship with the empathic Lady Tory... Taken all together it is fairly convincing to me. -- Fenyx4 03:04, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, the circumstances are compelling, but I don't think the visage "resembles" Riker. Besides, the only time Riker had facial hair, he had it all. Richter only has a moustache. AngusM 03:22, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Dont't take this personal, but this now really is too pendantic.--Tribun 03:29, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

So, it's the exact wording you have problem with? Would "a reference to" or "is based upon" make you feel better than "resembles"? -- Fenyx4 03:50, May 23, 2010 (UTC)

Yes, that would do. When you say "resembles" the first thing a reader will do is look for a face, and it looks weird when they don't mesh. I'll reword it and remove the banner. AngusM 04:11, May 23, 2010 (UTC)
