What do we deal with here on the BSWiki? The Facts or Speculation? I refer to the main article, not this discussion page. The last line "...Arrow may be an optical key..." this is speculation, or does the author have data to back that up? -[[User:Colonial one|Colonial one]] 23:45, 22 Aug 2005 (EDT) | What do we deal with here on the BSWiki?

:While BSG Wiki is a wiki, we generally do allow speculation, spoilers and POV provided that there is some basis to it from an episode, presss release, or from Ron D. Moore itself. I edit on Wikipedia myself (look at all the Matrix stuff) and know that POV there is discouraged there without signficant basis in fact. Here, speculation, rumor, and conjecture are part of the fun and allowed once there's something to base it on. If a person disagrees with something here, we generally add an opposing comment below it (as opposed to outright deletion or reversion) so we all get at least two sides of a viewpoint. When the question is answered, we remove the conjecture and add the event. Remember that we're dealing with a SF show and, unlike some elements of non-fiction and history, some events or things may never be explained--which is one of the reasons many of us enjoy coming here--to imagine. Or do you know of someone who shoots arrows with rhinestones on a regular basis? :) [[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 00:33, 23 Aug 2005 (EDT) | :While BSG Wiki is a wiki, we generally do allow speculation, spoilers and POV provided that there is some basis to it from an episode, presss release, or from Ron D.

Wouldn't the latter portion of this article be better suited for use on [[Tomb of Athena]], currently a redirect? --[[User: | Wouldn't the latter portion of this article be better suited for use on [[Tomb of Athena]], currently a redirect? --[[User:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 23:52, 27 August 2005 (EDT) | ||
:Looks confusing. There is more talk as a whole in the wiki on the Arrow than the Tomb, and the Arrow was given more attention than the tomb. Still, a section in the Athena article on the tomb may be more appropriate. I'll look into moving that data in detail in Athena and condensing the data in the Arrow article..
