Talk:Comparison of Battlestar Galactica (1978) and Battlestar Galactica (2003)/Archive 1

Regarding this...

This content comes from Wikipedia. Since Wikipedia releases all its content, under the GFDL by default, we cannot accept it here. The only way it can be accepted is if the original writers agree to release it under our current CC license. Otherwise, we'll have no choice but to delete it.

Also, the license doesn't seem to be taken into account, judging by the comments at the AFD regarding the Wikipedia version of this page. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 11:37, 15 November 2007 (CST)

In any case, this needs a lot of work to bring it in line with our Standards and Conventions. Some of the things can also use some trimming and rewording. Overall though, this might be a worthwhile article to have if copy edited properly, even is some of these points are already present scattered over various pages. --Serenity 11:49, 15 November 2007 (CST)

Right, we do have a lot of comparisons throughout the episode guides and the like. Also, we would probably want to rename the article to something more germane to us. Like Comparisons between the Original and Re-imagined Series, with the appropriate redirects. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 11:54, 15 November 2007 (CST)

I apologize for posting the raw content from Wikipedia without (de)wikifying the appropriate links or copyediting it to come into line with SAC. I don't presently have any opinion on the deletion discussion and this article was created only to satisfy concerns on the above listed en.wiki AfD for the preservation of the content here. I don't know how the license issues can be resolved, but hopefully something can be done to make everyone involved happy. Thank you for your consideration. CClouds 12:33, 15 November 2007 (CST)

Well, better to copy it in this state first, than doing everything and still have it deleted because of some reason. Let's solve the license issue first. Then some of us can go over the article and clean it up (also trying to not put RDM over TOS all the time). --Serenity 12:41, 15 November 2007 (CST)
