Notes
- Battlestar Wiki maintains official information on the Battlestar Galactica officially-licensed episodes, movies, and publications only. Fan fiction sources that discuss other ships (particularly fan-based clubs that use ship "names") are not permitted in this wiki.
- A common fan fiction belief is that the Original Series battlestar Columbia was also the class name for these battlestars. No official sources confirm this point.
- For more on what constitutes an official source, see Battlestar Wiki:Citation Jihad.
