| This article strikes me as rather weak. Along with other position articles such as the even-weaker [[CMO]] and [[ECM]], this and other pages could use a looksie to determine if it would be better to combine these positions into one article, a la [[Military Ranks (RDM)]]. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 15:41, 17 March 2008 (CDT) | | This article strikes me as rather weak.

| :ECM has nothing whatsoever to do to with this. You might think of [[ECO]], but that actually has some substance. I can see a general position article, but then there are so many trivial mini-articles about pointless things (like listing every single Raptor or Viper that was merely mentioned in chatter), that this one hardly matters. Instead of a new article, this one could maybe be merged with [[Senior Staff of Galactica]], which already has position histories. However, this article has a history for ''Pegasus'' which includes some relevant notes about Lee Adama and Renner, whereas the other one would only be about ''Galactica''. What would make more sense to me is a "position" category to link these articles about the staff a bit. -- [[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 16:45, 17 March 2008 (CDT)

| ::Yep, ECO was what I meant. Too little coffee. Maybe the shortest ones should be centralized and others lumped for simplicity, since the Chief Petty Officer, Communuications Officer, Tactical Officer and others aren't rank dependent? I guess it's probably not of great significance, but I tend to concise articles as well as text where possible. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 12:10, 18 March 2008 (CDT)

| :::CPO is a rank. Positions are things like commanding officer, [[tactical officer]], [[ECO]], [[Master-at-Arms]], [[CMO]] and [[communications officer]]. The thing is that that some of these have enough information to warrant an own article. And as said, I don't see why should be consolidated and not things like the Vipers and Raptors. Seems rather random in light of many other short articles. I do see that there is an issue with awareness and navigation. But IMO that would be better solved with a category and maybe a "positions" disambiguation. -- [[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 12:16, 18 March 2008 (CDT)

| I wouldn't be adverse to a list of positions being created... Also, I wouldn't be adverse to creating a "List of Vipers" and "List of Raptors", since most of them are one to three sentences in length anyway. Although, if a subject is long enough, it should be worthy of an independent 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> 12:41, 18 March 2008 (CDT)

| :Position lists are kinda covered on [[Senior Staff of Galactica]] and and [[Pegasus (RDM)#Crew]]. -- [[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 14:02, 18 March 2008 (CDT)
