6@DVK if no in-world confirmation can be found, the only conclusion you can draw is based on the fact that such confirmation doesn't exist. Don't fall into the conspiracy theorist's trap that anything that anything that doesn't get discredited in your approved list of sources by definition is confirmed as true.– jwentingCommented Feb 21, 2013 at 8:51

7@DVK true, but you can't show a link to a website certifying you searched dilligently and got no results :) And of course someone could always argue that if only you'd searched more you might have found something.– jwentingCommented Feb 21, 2013 at 15:05

4@DVK Here you go. I was specifically referring to the terms 'shred of evidence', 'zero details', and 'mere guess'. There are gentler ways of phrasing your concerns, in the future please do so.– user1027Commented Feb 22, 2013 at 16:10

4@DVK Next time, phrase your concerns more gently. Right here.– user1027Commented Feb 22, 2013 at 16:41

A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
Type the name of the science fictional or fantastical work your question is about (Example:
star-wars
).For questions not specific to any one work, use concept tags to describe your question (Example:
story-identification
).Tagging rules:
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. story-identification), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
