| Welcome to Battlestar Wiki!
|}
|-
| '''Battlestar Wiki''' is an online reference covering every aspect of ''[[Battlestar Galactica]]'' in its various forms, with the exception of fan fiction and other fan produced content. It is maintained by volunteers from all over the globe, who are known as Battlestar Wikipedians.

The type of content we provide includes episode guides, biographies, podcast transcripts, terminology, and other encyclopedic content. 

As we use the same technology that runs the various language Battlestar Wikis, this resource is freely editable from your web-browser, without advanced technical skill. That means that anyone can contribute and still not know how to write code to a web page.

| You can improve Battlestar Wiki most if you contribute what you can do best:
If you are a good writer, feel free to take a hand in writing an article, or revising one to meet our [[BW:SAC|Standards and Conventions]]. If you have done interviews and wish to [[Battlestar Wiki:Licensing|license them]] under Creative Commons, add them here.

| However you do not need to write your own articles. There is plenty of other very important work to do:
* Go through the task list and copy edit articles.
* Discuss and write help texts.
* Translate our English articles into [[Battlestar Wiki:Translation Project|other languages]]!
* Create an [[Battlestar Wiki:Audio Development|audio version]] of our articles!
* Tell others about Battlestar Wiki, though bear in mind our [[Battlestar Wiki:Official Representation|representation policy]].
