Name confusion
This page caught my eye since its been changed to something so radically different. I didn't see any discussion on either of the talk pages, so forgive me if this has already been discussed--i haven't really been active for q couple of years. Anyway, I'd like to know where the current name came from. The content of the page seems to indicate that its speculative based on a possible reference.
"Ba‘alat Starzone (Translation of Japanese, derived from LD/DVD dialogue)"
Thing is, I don't know what this means. The only Japanese I've seen is Kara, which cannot be translated, which romanizes to Baarato. I'm not saying the current name is wrong (it certainly seems correct) but I'd like to know where it came from.Canary 11:18, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
