==Change Disambig to Redirect==
I was working the [[Special:Disambiguations|Disambiguations Pages]], and I noticed that there are over 100 Battlestar links that go to the disambig page. I'd estimate over 95 percent of them intend to go to Original battlestar (RDM). Since there's already a disambig line at the top of that article, I propose that we change this page to a redirect to that one (after we redirect any pages that are intended to go to the TOS or video game spots). If there was equal amounts of content being added to all namespaces, I would argue for equality (and the disambig page), but since most of the new content being written will be about RDM (especially with how much progress has been made on the TOS pages) I think the average user would benefit from a redirect.  I'll go ahead and try to identify and fix the TOS and video game links, but hold off on a Viper-like disambig purge until it is determined whether or not we'll redirect. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 09:40, 18 January 2006 (EST)

-:Sounds good to me. Same is true for "Galactica", which has a similar redirect with disambig line at the top of the RDM page for those lost. We know that the wiki is weighted to the new show, so it makes logical since to get to the current info first. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 15:20, 18 January 2006 (EST)
-::Cool. I think I got all the video game and TOS references rounded up, so I think we'd be ok to switch it over. I'll wait until tomorrow morning before doing it, in case the anybody on the night shift has any objections. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 16:01, 18 January 2006 (EST)
-==Battlestar Universa and Eos==
-I spotted two more battlestars in my copy of Season Zero volume 2 that could be added to this section, Battlestar's Universa and Eos. I think Universa is a misspelling of Universal (as its only mentioend once) but Eos is definately spelled that way. I've added them to the list although if any one could find a picture of them I'd be happy to write out a page for them.
-Universa looks to be a Mercury Class but Eos is of an unknown class. {{unsigned|These}}
-: Cool. Actually, I think it's time for a category on just battlestars in general... -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]]</sup> 20:42, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
-::Agreed, actually I wonder if we could expand that and merge all of the current named, unnamed and Comic Book Battlestar page's into a single page.

-:::A list of battlestars would be good. That way we get rid of all the short articles, like we did that resulted in the modifications to [[The Fleet (RDM)]] article. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]]</sup> 16:58, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
