For the list of pages requiring expansion, see [[:Category:Articles Requiring Expansion]].

Alternative pages:
*For articles where shortness is but one of a number of problems such as POV or wikification please list them on [[Battlestar Wiki:Cleanup|Cleanup]] or [[Battlestar Wiki:Pages needing attention|Pages needing attention]].
*For pages needing an image please list them at [[Battlestar Wiki:Requested images|Requested images]]
*For pages that do not yet exist please list them on [[Battlestar Wiki:Requested articles|Requested articles]]

== How to Tag a Page Requiring Expansion ==

When you come across a page you believe requires expansion, please add '''<nowiki>{{expansion}}</nowiki>''' to the top of the article's page.

You can also add an HTML comment, such as '''<nowiki></nowiki>''' at the top of the article or '''<nowiki></nowiki>''' for any specific part that needs to be expanded.

However, some wikipedians do not read the HTML comments, and thus you may be better off just adding your reasons for the expansion tag to the article's talk page. To do so, simply click the "discussion" tab on the page in question and type away. '''Be sure to add your signature to your comments (and replies too!) by adding the [[Battlestar Wiki:tilde-string|tilde-string]], i.e. <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>.'''

Once an entry has been expanded make sure to remove the '''<nowiki>{{expansion}}</nowiki>''' tag from the article's page and make a note of it on the article's talk page.
