== | ==Disambiguation== | ||
Because each of the Battlestar Galactica TV series reuses ship names, character names, episode titles and other terminology, it is occasionally necessary to write articles covering the same thing in different continuities. | |||
When this is the case, an individual article should be used for each series. | |||
Articles should be namespaced according to the following schema: | |||
*(TOS) - [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Original Series]] | |||
*(1980) - [[Galactica 1980]] | |||
*(RDM) - [[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|Re-imagined Series]] | |||
*(2003 Video Game) - [[2003 Video Game]] | |||
*(2007 Video Game) - [[2007 Video Game]] | |||
*(SDS) - [[Battlestar Galactica (SDS)|Ill-fated Singer/DeSanto continuation project]] | |||
*(TSC) - [[Battlestar Galactica: The Second Coming|Richard Hatch's "Second Coming" attempt]] | |||
The names of the two TV series themselves can be differentiated by: | |||
*<nowiki>[[Re-imagined Series]]</nowiki>, for the 2004 ''Battlestar Galactica'' series | |||
*<nowiki>[[Original Series]]</nowiki>, for the original 1978 series | |||
On the Battlestar Wiki, "Re-imagined Series" and "Original Series" are considered proper names for easier cross-reference and clarification, and should be capitalized as shown. Two other variations are "re-imagined ''Battlestar Galactica''" and "original ''Battlestar Galactica'', which should ''not'' be capitalized, since they are not proper nouns. | |||
Because of the popularity of the new series as well as the volume of articles related to the Re-imagined Series, the use of the link <nowiki>[[Galactica]]</nowiki> will lead to the [[Galactica (RDM)]] article on the new series' battlestar. A disambiguation header always appears on this article for the two other ship articles on ''Galactica''. The same is true for [[Pegasus]]. | |||
The non-namespaced article should serve as a disambiguation page, pointing to the related articles. | |||
Examples of this in use are: | |||
* [[Pegasus (TOS)]] vs. [[Pegasus (RDM)]] (disambiguation at [[Pegasus]]) | |||
* [[Adama (TOS)]] vs. [[William Adama]] vs. [[Lee Adama]] (disambiguation at [[Adama]]) | |||
Pages for characters that appear in more than one series should reserve the name in common for disambiguation (Cf. [[Adama]], [[Baltar]], etc.), but individual pages need not be tagged with the series name if there is sufficient information in the title otherwise so as to be disambiguous (Cf. [[Gaius Baltar]] vs. [[Baltar (TOS)]] or [[William Adama]] vs. [[Adama (TOS)]]). | |||
Child articles of a disambiguation page should have a note applied at the top of the page (before everything, even the character template, etc.) linking back to the disambiguation page and its most relevant sister disambiguations. Keep the disambiguation links literal to make them distinctive. That is, don't change <nowiki>[[Baltar (TOS)]]</nowiki> to <nowiki>[[Baltar (TOS)|Baltar]]</nowiki>. This note should be preceded by a single tab and be in all italics. An example from [[Gaius Baltar]]'s article: | |||
:''This page discusses the unwitting betrayer of the Twelve Colonies of Kobol in the [[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|Re-imagined Series]]. For information on the [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Original Series]] character that intentionally betrays the [[The Twelve Colonies (TOS)|Twelve Colonies of Man]], see [[Baltar (TOS)]].'' | |||
== Episode pages == | |||
===Summary Section=== | |||
The summary section, unless there are (at least) ''two'' distinct non-overlapping storylines, should always be in ''Act 1'', ''Act 2'', ''etc''. header formats. Bonus scenes should also in their own header. | |||
===Questions Section=== | |||
Every episode-synopsis article includes a section called "Questions". The idea behind the section is, "These are the questions this episode raises and does not answer by itself". Since these pages are encyclopedic, it is not intended that the "Questions" section be used to actually speculate as to the answers! Please use the Analysis section of an episode article for brief speculation. | |||
The rules of thumb on questions are: | |||
# If a question is raised and not answered in the episode, it belongs in the Questions section on the encyclopedic page. | |||
# If a question is added to the encyclopedic page that was actually answered '''in the same episode's events''', it is policy to move both the question and the answer to the Talk page, because it isn't really an unanswered question. If an ambiguous or obscure topic reoccurs (or seems likely to), then it might belong in "Analysis" or "Notes". | |||
# If a question is answered in a later episode, the analysis for that episode should note that the event refers to an earlier open plot point. The original page can be edited to point forward to the answer, but the answer itself should not be edited into the page for the episode that posed the question. An early example of this style appears on the encyclopedia page for the episode "[[Water]]": "Why do the Cylons want to keep Helo on Caprica?" | |||
#* The typical style is to add ([[33|Answer]]) after the question, linked to the episode that answers the question. If there are multiple episodes that add ''significant'', ''substantial'' answers to a question, you should add multiple episodes like so: | |||
#** Why do the Cylons want to keep Helo on Caprica? ([[Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II|Answer 1]], [[The Farm|Answer 2]]) | |||
# Debates and discussion have no place on the encyclopedic pages; only on the talk pages. Encyclopedic pages should be neutral-point-of-view and descriptive. That is, when responding to a question, do not phrase the answer in such a way that the question (and the article) appears to be "arguing with itself". If you find yourself adding a question that contains a pronoun ("I think") or uses a contradiction ("But the Cylons..."), then the question must be rephrased into analysis, or placed on the talk page. | |||
#If a dispute occurs on whether a question is germane, appropriately located or answered, the debate should be moved over to a topic on the article's talk page. To aid others with the same question, a link to the debate should be added to the question so others know that this topic has an extended discussion elsewhere. | |||
# Last, but not least, when in doubt, '''ask your fellow contributors'''. | |||
=== Analysis and Notes Sections === | |||
As noted above, answers to questions that aren't directly answered by an episode, but can be answered by speculation and deduction, need to be placed in "Analysis". | |||
As the name implies, this is the place to analyze an episode's plot or its role in advancing a larger arc. Speculation is acceptable as long as it's logical and written from a neutral point of view. Replying to someone else's analysis with own, perhaps conflicting, points is acceptable as well to a certain degree. However, keep in mind that Battlestar Wiki is [[BW:FORUM|not a forum]]. There should be no back and forth arguing. If something is disputed, it needs be discussed on the talk page and, when a consensus has been reached, presented from a neutral point of view in the article. Moreover, more than two or three nested bullet points are usually unnecessary. In such a case, points can often be combined. | |||
The "Notes" section is for obvious items of interest related to the article that require no further explanation or speculation. These can be facts from the episode, behind the scenes information gleaned from interviews or podcasts, and the like. | |||
