Battle Continuation into 33?
After taking a look at Fall of the Scorpion Fleet Shipyards, I was running through battles just for fun and ran across this question. I think that the battle should end when Galactica jumps away. Just like to hear other thoughts. --FrankieG 09:03, 13 December 2007 (CST)
- It's been bugging me too somewhat. At the least there should be two sections. Or we could put the 5-day part under an "Aftermath" header. --Serenity 09:54, 13 December 2007 (CST)
- It should be a separate section, really, but it is continued from the events of Battle of Ragnar Anchorage, as the Cylons are still pursuing them from Ragnar. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New 11:17, 13 December 2007 (CST)
- I agree on the separate section...it can link as a continuation, but it should stand as a separate battle page. Since there's no celestial waypoints to call it, I recommend, "The Battle of 33 Minutes." --Spencerian 11:29, 13 December 2007 (CST)
- That doesn't sound so good :s For now I made an "aftermath" section, which works fine for me. The header could also be called "Escape from the Cylons", but that could also refer to the main battle, depending on one's point of view. --Serenity 11:33, 13 December 2007 (CST)
- I honestly don't see the point in documenting the "Battle of 33 Minutes". I much prefer the "aftermath" section of the article than making another article just on it, which seems unnecessary. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New 13:41, 13 December 2007 (CST)
- Agreeing with Joe, although I'd prefer a different section heading. Maybe something along the lines of "Retreat from Colonial Space"? --April Arcus 14:16, 13 December 2007 (CST)
- I love reading Big W about WWW II battles. There always a section about the aftermath, fallout, repercussions, etc. of the battle. It seems that our battle articles usually include this, but it might be helpful to put in a different section such as the case is with this article. The next battle article Skirmish over the Red Moon is another example about the discussion of the downed raider. --FrankieG 15:03, 13 December 2007 (CST)
