Page renameEdit

May I suggest moving this material to the "Dax symbiont" page (lower case "s") and placing the redirect here (to there). In most cases where there are links to "Dax symbiont", it's in cases where the "s" is lower case, so linking would be simpler and more intuitive. Also, "Symbiont" is a clarifying description, not part of its name. I'll wait for counterarguments before making the change unilaterally.--Emperorkalan 11:43, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Sort of agree, there is a precedent in the only other two symbionts the have the word symbiont in the name to put it in brackets though; Kahn (symbiont) and Odan (symbiont). -- 8of5 13:51, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

And that's another option, with parens. Or changing the other to no-parens. (The first with parens was "Odan (symbiont)", to distinguish it from the one-name Ambassador Odan(s). My vote would be to standardize with lower case "s" and no parens, given the usage of the terms in various entries. It'll cut down on typing things twice, e.g. [[Odan symbiont]] rather than [[Odan Symbiont|Odan symbiont]]--Emperorkalan 14:32, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

Dates Edit

I've attempted to add dates for when each host had Dax but it's not something I'm hugely familiar with so is only what I could gather from other articles. If anyone could add in any missing dates that would be great. --8of5 21:04, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
