Where do we learn her name from? Can't hear it in the Flashbacks. OTW 17:20, 16 October 2007 (CDT)
Goldbrick
The name, "Goldbrick", comes from the subtitles. It is treated as a proper noun there. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New 12:00, 15 December 2007 (CST)
- That's as may be, but are subtitles anywhere authoritative? The line of dialogue that Adama uses about sickbay makes the more traditional meaning of goldbrick and "goldbricker" more likely. The subtitler might have been making the wrong assumption. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 12:03, 15 December 2007 (CST)
- Well, that depends on whether the person keying in the subtitles didn't use the script as reference. The best route would be to ask Bradley. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New 12:09, 15 December 2007 (CST)
- We could make a footnote about the source and that we aren't sure. It can actually be both. Callsigns are often derived from persons' negative traits or something stupid they did. --Serenity 12:11, 15 December 2007 (CST)
- That would be for the best, since goldbrick is also defined as "a thing that looks valuable, but is in fact worthless". Or it could be in reference to her golden hair. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New 12:13, 15 December 2007 (CST)
- Sounds good to me. --khaosworks (talk • contribs) 12:15, 15 December 2007 (CST)
