Omega 2 Relay

According to Mass Effect: Redemption, the Sahrabarik system has the Omega 2 Relay, which is a standard blue relay, where Tazzik headed with Shepard's body. Presumably this is the other relay in the system, which is unnamed in ME2. Should we add it to the article? - Sikon 19:17, January 16, 2011 (UTC)

Um how about no. You base that entirely on speculation. You have no proof that it is the Omega 2 Relay and frankly how do you know that there are only two relays in the system. We only see one Relay in the Widow System, but we do know that there are a lot more, 12+ IIRC in the Serpent Nebula and in the Widow system near the Citadel. Since the Citadel is the hub of the Relay network and has many relays in close proximity. So basically it is speculation, and speculation isn't allowed in articles. In addition, since there is the Omega-4 Relay, I can say there are at least 4 relays in the system, but that is speculation also. That would make more sense. For all we know, the relay in the system is the Omega-1, Omega-3, maybe Omega-8 relay, there just is no proof to support either point. Lancer1289 19:27, January 16, 2011 (UTC)
Exactly what I was going to say, Lancer. The games don't show every relay, so how can we know for sure that the relay in Sahrabarik is really Omega 2? -- Commdor (Talk) 19:29, January 16, 2011 (UTC)
Indeed. Lancer1289 19:30, January 16, 2011 (UTC)

Brown dwarfs =/= planets

It's not a big issue, but it's technically incorrect to say that Urdak is the first planet orbiting Sahrabarik. Brown dwarfs are actually a kind of substellar object that are neither planets nor stars - they form through the collapse of star-forming regions, much like stars do, but their inability to engage in hydrogen-1 fusion means that they end up in a strange middle ground between large gas giant and small star. Would it be okay to change the description (as well as for Mnemosyne, in the Thorne system) to suit? TheWarmaster (talk) 18:12, February 19, 2014 (UTC)

Such technicalities are often rendered moot in the Mass Effect Universe. In-game, the brown dwarfs are treated as planets orbiting the central star. The point of the planet articles is to stick strictly with the in-game info and not bring excessive conclusions or speculations to the table, at least as far as MoS is concerned. Trivia sections are open to such technicalities, provided proper citations are present. --SolitaryReaper (talk) 18:31, February 19, 2014 (UTC)
