<p>I created this page. My thinking was that other people could use their user pages to write episode reviews if they wanted to, and they could create a link for them here. At the very least, this page allows people to find my own episode reviews (Sheba's Galaxy). So I would prefer that this page not be deleted. <span class="fck_mw_template">{{unsigned|Galactica1981}}</span>

: Just to make a few things clear:
 
: Frankly, having people post reviews of the episodes on the Battlestar Wiki runs against our mandates, which are to be an encyclopedia, reference material, and episode guide. [[BW:NOT|Battlestar Wiki ''is not'' a personal soapbox]] for people's reviews of the series, although we provide critical analysis (with caveats and exceptions) and notes as to the events depicted in the various series, but we should really not venture into online reviews.  We don't give episodes "star ratings" or things of that nature, since those are extremely subjective measures, and we don't want to muddy the water by doing that.
 
: Now, if the reviews are posted on your own user page, or user subpage, that's fine.  I wouldn't be necessarily opposed to an "Episode Reviews" page, as so long as it is made clear that the list is only a basic guide to what reviews are out there. (In the same way we have an article on [[fan fiction]], which makes it perfectly clear that it isn't in our mandate to chronicle fan fiction.) -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 11:09, 18 March 2012 (EDT)
 
 
The reviews are on my user page, and it is clearly stated at the top of it that it is a user page. It's set up in a way that people won't see them as "official" reviews or anything like that. {{unsigned|Galactica1981}}
 
: That's fine, however the "Episode Reviews" page needs to have these warnings — like the [[fan fiction]] does — too. Actually, if that format is used, I really don't have an issue with it at that point. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 19:31, 18 March 2012 (EDT)
