Sam actually has been in nineteen ATL episodes, see Samantha Carter - List of Appearances, so she is a recurring character, not a one-shot. I changed the category. Peter R 20:27, 9 February 2006 (UTC) (I changed the number to reflect the final total. Myrrlyn (talk) (Contribs) 19:24, June 1, 2010 (UTC))

Where should one add trivia about the character? For example, that Samantha drive an old Volvo in several Season 5 episodes. Bashir 06:52, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

  • Two areas;
  1. You can add a new section on trivia notes about the characters, or
  2. Add notes on the episodes in which she drove the Volvo on the notes section on those articles.

Mitchell[]

Hi guys,

I think there should be an article about Cam Mitchell. They are very close friends but there`s no word about him. my english is not the best so maybe one of you can write something :)

Promotion to General[]

Is it wise to say that Carter is now General based on a video game? This game is based on SG-1 for sure but it seems to have a separate continuity. --LIMAFOX76 (talk) (Contribs) 14:46, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

User Rofocale put that part in the page. How do you know that Carter wasn't promoted to General, it could be in the game.TyphussJediVader (talk) (Contribs) 15:23, June 1, 2010 (UTC)
For the moment, the only place where Carter is located is the Hammond (SGU) even if we count the spoiler "Incursion, Part 1" not yet aired in US. The reference Rofocale used is Stargate Resistance which is a game and we know that games do not follow all the canon. I didn't see anywhere a spoiler describing the promotion --LIMAFOX76 (talk) (Contribs) 16:47, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Resistance set in the future, but really sould we keep it? --Глючарина (talk) (Contribs) 16:53, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

I say no, only tv shows and movies should be used for such information. TV shows and movies are set in present, and there is no information that Carter have rank of General. Vilnisr T | C - 17:34, June 1, 2010 (UTC)
I agree. --LIMAFOX76 (talk) (Contribs) 07:25, June 2, 2010 (UTC)
I don't think we should relegate Resistance to an alternate timeline quite yet. I'm trying to find the link, but I remember reading an interview with some of the people who worked on the game and said that it takes place two or three years down the road from Atlantis season five and Continuum, which would be 2012 or so at the earliest. If and when we get to said point and see that Carter is not a general (in the movies or Universe), then we should not the discrepancy (per our forum canon discussion).
Addendum: Resistance chronological info. mentionedLenonn (talk) (Contribs) 22:47, June 5, 2010 (UTC)
Then, we must decide when SGR takes place. I myself, suggest 2012. I also added a comment asking whether or not SGR should be considered canon in Joe's blog —Supakillaii (talk) (Contribs) 17:29, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
It's actually not for us to decide, which was why I didn't originally place a date on it. I left the date the other user added because I thought they had a source, but I've been unable to find any. Additionally, the company themselves say they aren't pinning a time on it. The only info we have is "a few years after season 10" which is what we can currently state. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 17:36, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
I agree with you, we can't not decide the date and we can't just put down 2012 then say: that's the date for the game!.TyphussJediVader (talk) (Contribs) 17:41, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
Well, for now at least, we can use our good friend the ambiguously cannon tag! Sman789 (talk) (Contribs) 18:19, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
We only do that for things that don't have a known canon status, not for things we aren't keen on. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 18:33, June 7, 2010 (UTC)
Then let us wait 'til good Joseph answers, if he answers. —Supakillaii (talk) (Contribs) 21:19, June 7, 2010 (UTC
As far as the franchise at large is concerned, the "present" is Stargate Universe's timeline. In my honest opinion, the wiki information should follow the present canon. As Carter was clearly addressed as Colonel in Incursion, I believe the page should reflect that. Kanten (talk) (Contribs) 07:18, June 25, 2010 (UTC)
First, I apologize my idiocity above. And, since Joe hasn't answered to the question, I agree with Kanten. —Supakillaii (talk) (Contribs) 09:22, June 25, 2010 (UTC)
But Stargate Resistence is ambiguously canon. As far as I'm aware, no-one has said wheather the games are canon or not, have they? Sman789 (talk) (Contribs) 12:43, June 25, 2010 (UTC)
Well, I don't know about SGR, but SGW is canon... —Supakillaii (talk) (Contribs) 16:31, June 25, 2010 (UTC)
Resistance is essentially an online deathmatch game, there isn't a lot of "canon"-type material in there to speak of. That sign is more of an easter egg than anything. Furthermore, it takes place in "the future", so it's as relevant to the present canon about as much as the 2010 episode, more of a what-if than anything else. 98.222.6.143 00:41, June 26, 2010 (UTC)

So what do we do with it? Keep it? Remove it? Mark it as quasi-/non-canon? Raven's wing (talk) (Contribs) 19:42, August 18, 2010 (UTC)

As with all official material, we keep it in the main body. I've unlocked the page, and I really don't want to have to lock it again. It also fits with the future Sam Carter we see in Stargate SG-1: Roswell. —Jaymach Ral'Tir (talk) 20:42, August 18, 2010 (UTC)
Is Supakillaii right in saying that only SGW has been certified as canon? If that's the case, it makes sense to leave the SGR stuff in ambig tags. I support Jaymach 100% in putting everything from every licensed source in the wiki, but I think we do need to tag things which are less certain - especially when we know (from the arguments here) that there are a lot of fans using the wiki (or perhaps now not using it) who don't want to keep encountering stuff from SGR and SGW integrated indistinguishably from content of the series. If we devise a tagging system which allows content to be separated, everybody wins :)
I would personally suggest leaving all stuff from the series as it is now, just written in normal text, but then have separate tags for books, SGR, SGW (seperate for both games as they have different confirmed canon-ness) and then all the other different types of sources as well. Stuff from SGW and the RPGs etc would have a green coloured tag, which would have the source name as its header and a short mention that it is confirmed canon. Stuff from SGR and the other ambig sources would have a yellow tag of similar format, saying it is ambiguously canon. Stuff from SG Infinity and other non-canon but still licences stuff would have a red tag, saying it is confirmed to not be canon. The main difference and advantage of a system like this would be that, as well as making canon-ness more obvious to readers who havn't read the article on canon, it would separate stuff from the series and canon sources. This means that, despite it being obvious that canon sources are still canon, it would be easier for the people who don't want to read non-series stuff to distinguish it from the main text and avoid it if they wish. Sman789 (talk) (Contribs) 19:00, January 4, 2011 (UTC)
So I'm just gonna throw my .02 cents in here. Over on the Star Trek Wiki, No video games are considered canon. Due to the artistic liscense that most game designers need to take to allow functionality, balance, or good story telling in their games. When it comes to things that have a big universe impact using only things seen on TV/movie or taken from producers blogs etc. is a tried and true way so people dont get confused.
The Star Trek wiki (Memory Alpha), also has Memory Beta and Memory Gamma which allow them to separate material from books, comics and games etc from the TV shows and movies. Seeing as there aren't enough Stargate books/games/comics etc to warrant the creation of even one more wiki, the only option is to put them in this one (in ambig tags, of course).

The Curious Case of Carter's Missing Wings[]

Pilot's Wings that is, or formally-speaking, an Aeronautical Rating badge. She's supposed to have logged over "100 [combat flight] hours over enemy air space" during Desert Storm (Children of the Gods), is fully-qualified to crew an F-15C (Continuum) and an F-302 (Covenant), so what gives? Even if she hasn't fully kept-up with her rating, meaning flying regularly as part of her ongoing duties, she's still earned the badge and is therefore required to wear at least the "Basic" version of it on her Service Uniform above her present Occupational Badge.

Alternatively, like O'Neill, since she's also been working to study deep space and has been in-space (to include going EVA) she should be entitled to a Space Badge. At least Jack wears his, even if he's spent less time in space than she :/ Ryan Fruto (talk) (Contribs) 04:52, March 11, 2012 (UTC)

Let you know Samantha Carter was never a Brigadier General at all on SG-1 or on Stargate Atlantis either. so that part is wrong
