| ::::Ranks sound like a good idea. A problem is that the user data template has a rank field now and anyone can give themselves a rank for whatever reason.

| :::::I'm not personally concerned whether or not I have a different name than anyone else. However, who am I to argue if people want to think of me as the Commander? :-) Also, we don't really need to change the name of the Interwiki group.

| The ranks may be confusing in that many fan sites use that convention in a similar way. We don't want to confuse Battlestar Wiki's nature with fan sites and their "ships."

| I like Joe's original naming: Chiefs are administrators, deckhands are trusted users, all else are crew, except bots, which really should remain the same (it's got its own great name). Joe should get his own title, and "Commander" works for me. B-crats could get "Master Chief" maybe, but that may be confusing with "Halo" players. Maybe "Colonel," but again, avoid the uses of rank too much or we'll get too much into role-play. Perhaps b-crats could be "Senior Chiefs". (Didn't anyone catch my [[User:Spencerian|new deckhand costume]], by the way? :) --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 11:25, 5 September 2007 (CDT)

| :Senior chief sounds good. That also makes them closer to administrators in name, which is a good idea, because b-crats really aren't all that different. --[[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 11:36, 5 September 2007 (CDT)

| ::[http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/User_talk:Spencerian#User_Image Yep]. We could rename the Bots to Cylons. :D I am like Senior Chiefs and Chiefs. trusted should be Crew. :) [[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 11:42, 5 September 2007 (CDT)

| :::And contributor-level accounts are "Civilians." I was thinking about the Cylon-bots, too, but wondered if that would cause confusion...probably not. Too easy and obvious for us NOT to use! --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 11:52, 5 September 2007 (CDT)

| :::::Ah, my two seconds of glory :D Personally, I support the Commander/Senior Chief/Chief/Deckhand (Deckhand being trusted). --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]<sup>([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]])</sup> 12:42, 5 September 2007 (CDT)

| ::::::The bots could be referred to as "toasters" or "logic bombs." I rather like the idea of looking at a page's history and seeing that it's been attacked by a logic bomb. Also, awesome costume, Spence! --[[User:Slander|Slander]] 15:42, 5 September 2007 (CDT)
| |
| : "Master chief" is more of a military role as it pertains to something like the ROTC, thus I prefer "senior chief" for bureaucrats. I'm fine with the Commander/Senior Chief/Chief/Deckhand as done above. -- [[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> 16:21, 5 September 2007 (CDT)

| ::It's just the next rank in the petty officer line. PO, Chief PO, Senior Chief PO, Master Chief PO. Though Master Chief reminds to much of "Halo" and Senior Chief comes after Chief anyways. --[[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 16:31, 5 September 2007 (CDT)
