== New Zealand Season 3 DVD Release Date Announced == | |||
FYI, Season Three on DVD will be released in NZ on November 21, on the same day as in Australia. The 5-disc set will be identical to the Australian version (and I believe the UK Region 2 version) and have no extras. It will retail for NZ$59.95 (US$45) and come in the now-standard slimline (12mm wide, same as single disc) case. | |||

How can someone submit you guys some news without making an article about it? You might remember some comments a year or so ago about a BSG game coming to the XBox 360, and It's out now. Thought that might be newsworthy. o.O {{unsigned|ShinRa Actual}} | |||
: Welcome to the Wiki! :-) We actually have an article on the 360 video game. The article is located [[Battlestar Galactica (2007 game)|here]]. You can add information to it by clicking the edit button and adding what you want to add. :-) -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [http://www.sanctuarywiki.org Sanctuary Wiki — ''New'']</sup> 00:54, 11 November 2007 (CST) | |||

I know that Battlestar Wiki, as an entity, is going to remain neutral in the WGA conflict. However, I just wanted to bring [http://www.fans4writers.com/forum/index.php?topic=283.0 this thread at fans4writers] to your attention. Basically Mrs. Ron is concerned with the (lack of) numbers the site is getting. So if the WGA strike is something that you're interested in or are passionate about, I'd encourage you to go ahead and sign up over there and get active. The studios (and Mrs. Ron) can't see you if you're lurking in the shadows, you have to step out into the light and make sure your voice is heard. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 10:10, 19 November 2007 (CST) | |||
: | :Any chance we could show banners promoting the WGA strike here, or would that conflict with our neutrality? The advertisers could pay per click, and we could uphold our neutrality saying we'd also accept anti-strike banners, IMO. --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]<sup>([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]])</sup> 10:34, 19 November 2007 (CST) | ||
::This is walking a ''very fine'' line. At that point, we may as well say that we're supporting the WGA strike as an entity and eschew our neutrality. Now if "they" (whoever they are) paid, then that ''might'' be a different story. But I don't feel comfortable in taking people's money to promote an opinion regarding the strike, either. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [http://www.sanctuarywiki.org Sanctuary Wiki — ''New'']</sup> 11:44, 19 November 2007 (CST) | |||

:::::[[Battlestar Wiki:Think Tank/WGA Strike|Yes]]. Basically, we don't want NBC/Universal to shut us down over this issue. --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]<sup>([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]])</sup> 09:53, 20 November 2007 (CST) | |||

I'm | I'm thinking, a lot of users join up, and then the majority never edit anything. Are we sure we're not scaring people off by very quick "Welcome to the Battlestar Wiki!" message everyone gets? Perhaps we could trial a week or two where we don't use this and see what happens, or reconsider its content? [[User:OTW|OTW]] 17:49, 23 November 2007 (CST) | ||
