(The Torment of Tantalus)
I've found that by far the biggest challenge of writing Stargate
fan fiction is spelling.  Even the encyclopedia sites vary in the
spelling of essential terms.  Naqahdah alone has
given me hours of trouble.  I decided to make my own dictionary, so at
least I'd be consistent across my own fic.
The purpose of this dictionary is to standardize spelling, not to
replicate a compendium.  Therefore, more attention is given to the
source of the chosen spelling than to the definition of the term.
Definitions are relatively spoiler-free.  If you feel a definition is
a spoiler or exceptionally offensive, email me and I'll change it.
Submissions are welcome at the email address at the bottom of the
page.  Please include a reliable source.
Repository: A Stargate Spelling Dictionary
The citation (in italics) is for the primary spelling (in
bold) or for the spelling indicated in parenthesis, but not the
rest of the entry.  Some reference works are listed and linked at the bottom
of the page.  Episode numbers are taken mainly from TVTome.com - see
the episode list for details.
Terms in the Latin, Cyrillic or Stargate alphabet are eligible for
inclusion in the Repository; the main standard for inclusion is
whether an ickle newbie writing her first fanfic would wonder how to
spell the word.  Terms that are frequently or intentionally misspelled
are also included.  Character names from the credits are included,
regardless of ease of spelling.
For the purposes of the Repository, a canon spelling is one that
has appeared on-screen in a broadcast episode or its credits (but not
in the closed-captioning).  When other sources clash with canon, canon
wins (eg., naqahdah).  If there is no canon
substantiation for a spelling, standard English usage, official
materials (such as the scifi.com website and tvtome.com episode
credits), published reference works,
and fan usage (especially at rdanderson.com) will be considered, in
that order.  The final arbiter in all cases is yours truly (Jemima
Pereira).
For reference, incorrect and otherwise deprecated versions of terms
are listed (in strike-out) in the entry for the correct spelling.
Most notably, movie spellings (eg., O'Neil) and Teal'cized
spellings (eg., MajorCarter) are deprecated.
If you know of a misspelling that has been omitted, please email me.
It is, of course, your choice whether to use a deprecated
spelling.
