Talk:Janice Rand

In-universe?

I don't think the "in-universe" tag is appropriate. It claims that an aspect of the article or section is primarily written in in-universe style.

I assume that this tag refers only to section 1 (Overview). But the only in-universe attitude that I see is in the first sentence "Janice Rand served as yeoman..." All the other sentences make it very clear that they talk about a character, not a person. Phrases like "this is suggested..." or "pilot episode" make no sense inside the Star Trek universe.

Err, which episode of Voyager, I don't remember that... - Weaselandalf 13/3/2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.137.99.165 (talk) 12:06, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't recall the name of the episode, but Tuvok and Janeway travel into Tuvok's own memories via a mindmeld and relive some of his experiences serving aboard the Excellsior under Sulu. Rand is featured... and at one point Janeway even steals her uniform. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.209.220.20 (talk) 03:44, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

Looks like 24's Chloe O'Brian

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the similarity between Grace Lee Whitney and Mary Lynn Rajskub (24's Chloe O'Brian)... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.166.109.199 (talk) 23:50, 10 April 2010 (UTC)

Rank unspecified?

Is the rank really unspecified? I thought yeoman in TOS is actually a rank. Of course it can be just a position, too. Has anybody information about the yeoman? --Robinandroid (talk) 12:43, 9 August 2010 (UTC)

Year?

There is no indication of what year she played the character. I think that should be put in the lead. Yoninah (talk) 10:13, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

I've clarified in the first part of the lead that she was only in the first season. Miyagawa (talk) 17:22, 19 May 2015 (UTC)

Errors

The first section of the article states Rand did not appear in the first episode aired, but actually she did. The episodes were aired out of order of production, and "The Man Trap" was the first aired, and she was in it.

Also, the Appearances section states The Corbomite Maneuver was the first episode televised, but it was not. It was the first episode filmed after the pilots but it was not the first televised appearance of Rand. "The Man Trap" was. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.250.22.88 (talk) 02:03, 10 October 2016 (UTC)

Quite right, thanks for correcting that. Miyagawa (talk) 11:12, 10 October 2016 (UTC)

Yeoman link

The 'yeoman' hyperlink links to the Star Trek Uniforms article rather than the yeoman article. Maybe this should be changed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.41.216.130 (talk) 07:06, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

It appears someone changed it without acknowledging your comment. They probably corrected it (WP:BOLD) without checking the Talk page. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 18:36, 8 September 2022 (UTC)

Named For Shatner's Wife?

According to IMDB, William Shatner was married to Gloria Rand from 1956 to 1969. Any chance that naming the Yeoman Rand was not a coincidence? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.246.186.38 (talk) 02:24, 15 February 2018 (UTC)

Infobox color-coordination

The infoboxes for each of TOS characters appear to be color-coordinated to their uniforms, except for Yeoman Janice, who similarly to Lieutenant Uhura wore a red dress. There is probably an unspecified reason for why Janice Rand's infobox is #F0E68C rather than red, so I'll leave it for now. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR (talk) 18:49, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
