There is no need to make a Polaris/Alpha page because we already have a Polaris page. However just because an event is not "big enough" to get its own page doesn't make the event non-existent. It was a conflict. It happened.

As for whether they were Sky People, that was the reason I didn't bother editing the article. Why you decided to argue "it not a 'real' conflict because 'real' conflicts have to last at least x number days" & "killing dozens/hundreds of people doesn't count", I have no idea.

What classifies as Sky People though is more complex:
 * Children born to Sky People on Earth are still going to be Sky People, because Sky People is their clan name, not where they were born.
 * Immunity to radiation is something that happened over a hundred years. The first born space children would've died if sent to Earth. (So crossing out both your "characteristics of Sky People".)
 * Sky People is the Grounder name for Arkers. The term Arker (like Sky People) had nothing to do with where they were born. The first Arkers were not born in space – they survived the nuclear apocalypse on space stations. If we're using the terms "Arker", "Arkadians", and "Sky People" interchangeable (which we are) without defining the difference between the terms (which it's unclear if there are), then that makes the original residents of Alpha be Sky People. Polaris residents were also residents of a space station surviving the nuclear apocalypse. Thus, even though they never became part of the Ark, it's simplest to categorize them with the other space survivors as Sky People.
