No. Ron Moore & Co. ''know'' about this thing and we're starting up the Second Awards; we just started this week, and our placeholder [http://goldentoasterawards.hangardeck5.com/ website for the 2nd awards is up here]. More news to follow. Please leave it as it is for now. Plus, quite possibly the entire online community is involved and it really ''is'' an "awards show", just one held online.--[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] <sup>([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]])</sup> 14:28, 24 March 2006 (CST) | No. Ron Moore & Co.

:::Looks like theres already an [[Awards and Honors|awards page]], i think a small passage could be mentioned about the golden toaster awards there with a link to the site rather than showing all the results here. Its certainly not a recognised awards "ceremony". --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] 03:21, 12 April 2006 (CDT) | :::Looks like theres already an [[Awards and Honors|awards page]], i think a small passage could be mentioned about the golden toaster awards there with a link to the site rather than showing all the results here.

::::I think that at the topic is sufficiently notable in fandom to make sure that a listing of the winners is maintained. Currently, I think this may be the only place a list is kept. As soon as the "official" site is up, it'd probably be best if we turned the updating and maintenance of winners over to them (for risk of redundancy) and mostly just link to results, etc. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 07:49, 12 April 2006 (CDT) | ::::I think that at the topic is sufficiently notable in fandom to make sure that a listing of the winners is maintained.

:Well, my concern is that Battlestar Wiki shouldn't be the citation, since we should avoid self-references whenever possible.
