Whenever a Hero is captured, the Others come up with a rescue plan. Caldwell is treated as the bad guy because he doesn't want to sacrifice his thousand Red Shirts and the ONLY Tau'ri ship in the Galaxy just to rescue one man.

But Pegasus Logic works in its own galaxy. Hero always gets rescued, and it doesn't matter how many Red Shirts die.

Yes, the the whole narim = simon wallace comes from the fact that they're played by the same actor. But I think it's funny

Added DiffLines:

[[WMG:'Simon Wallace' is actually Narim]]
The last time we see Narim is in 2001 in SG1's 'Between Two Fires' where he is assumed to have died in the destruction of Tollana. However, he managed to escape and make his way to earth where the SGC gave him a new identity as a doctor named Simon Wallace. During his time on earth, he and Dr. Weir met and got engaged.

--------[[WMG:Westeros is on a planet in the Pegasus Galaxy]]
Specifically M4D-058 (the planet with Hallona and Geldar).
The planet is somewhat larger than Earth or Lantea, and the island continent that Hallona and Geldar are on is on the opposite side from Westeros and Essos.
The planet was originally used like an Alpha Site by the Lanteans, and has two stargates--one near Geldar, the other east of Asshai on Essos. The satellites around the planet that were used for the computers in the nation-building game also include planetary defense satellites. The "comet" seen at the beginning of GoT season 2 was a satellite reentering the atmosphere at a relatively shallow angle, thus burning long enough to be visible.
The planet was favored by a group of Ancient special operations warriors, who settled there in great numbers, especially in the grassslands of Essos, thus giving rise to the Dothraki. A common ancestor of both Khal Drogo and Ronon Dex lived there. He had two sons, one who remained on M4D-058, and the other who moved to Sateda. In addition, Janus attempted some experiments there that altered the planet's seasons, making them years long. He also genetically altered a native species into what evolved into dragons.
Around the time the Ancients abandoned Atlantis and returned to Earth, a Wraith cruiser happened upon 058 and was attacked by a defense satellite, causing it to crash in the extreme north of Westeros. It managed to crash-land more or less intact, and the Wraith set out to the south to find humans to feed upon. This led to the Wraith being defeated and forced back to their ship. They then went into hibernation for many thousands of years, only to re-awaken at the beginning of the events shown on Game of Thrones. Using their knowledge, the Lanteans in Westeros built the Great Wall. Eventually, most of this knowledge was lost, and became shrouded in myth and legend. The Valyrians kept most of their knowledge longer than other groups on the planet, and Old Valyrian is a dialect of Ancient.

Or more correctly he's dead, but he's left a clone behind that will activate after a certain period of time. The original Michael has left a message warning the clone Michael to find out what happened to him first (so the clone doesn't repeat that mistake,) and when the time is right, emerge to cause as much chaos as he possibly can.

In a similar vein to the 'Dr. Keller is a Wraith' and 'Todd gave the Athosians their Wraith DNA' WMG's above, Halling is in fact Todd in disguise. After all, what sort of scientist wouldn't want to monitor his experiment? He's just using makeup like the Wraith we see on Earth in Vegas to look like he's not a Wraith at all.

Ronon looks awfully similar to Tyr Anasazi. Both of which are physically superior and have advanced fighting skills. Explains how Ronon can face dangerous adversaries like gouald, wraith, hybrids and Tealc.

[[WMG: The wraith are actually the same species as Morbius the living vampire]]
Its never fully explains how the iratus bug evolved into the wraith and neither does it make a whole lot of sense seeing as their should be all sorts of iratus hybrids. Its well known those lazy ancients are responsible so it was probably a whole host of chimera experiments designed to make a life form either more resistant to the plague or diagonal on the human evolution chain. A lot of radiation and bat DNA mixed with the magic ingredient if Iratus DNA and hey presto- wraith.

Crossing species together seems to have become Micheal's major M.O., and he's especially interested in Teyla and her baby. He's established to be a brilliant biological scientist, and being a Wraith he could easily be old enough to have been around back then. The fact he's never brought it up in conversation can be chalked up to the memory wipe the Atlantis team gave him when they experimented on him.

It's not just a joke; they literally don't have names in the same way we Humans think about it. They're a highly-telepathic race, able to communicate mind-to-mind. They don't need spoken names to distinguish individuals from one another; they just ''know''.

* The IOA probably loved it. Atlantis is an IOA run facility, Cheyenne Mountain was IOA supervised, but still US Military controlled. I'm just surprised they authorised it being sent back to Pegasus in the book series, it would have made far more sense for them to order it relocated to mid-Pacific or mid-Atlantic (out of US waters and airspace) and run it free and clear of US military intervention. The IOA were, quite reasonably when you think about the wider implications, never entirely comfortable with the US having such a stranglehold on off-world travel and resources.
* If the IOA didn't love it, then they could just take the control crystal out of Atlantis's gateroom and take the Atlantis gate offline.

* Possible. Scotland had a referendum in 1979 that would have led to at least a degree of independence if there hadn't been a rule about "minimum turnout" needed for the vote to be valid. Maybe in the SG-verse the opponents of the referendum failed to insert the rule, limited independence happened, then the rest of the 80s (in which Scotland bore the brunt of the economic turmoil and got little of the benefits as in real-life) made it possible for full independence. This ''is'' science-fiction after all.
