Major Revision Complete
In keeping the miniseries to fit the episode summaries, I have revised this article with the larger details of the episodes, breaking it down by the events from each night as it was aired in the U.S. The analysis has been removed from both, as most of it has been answered or discussed in the series article, Battlestar Galactica (RDM). Any links to Miniseries will redirect to Miniseries, Night 1. The questions section is shortened to the central questions generated by the miniseries only, and minimizes discussion of regular series names and events to keep the article from becoming confusing to new viewers (although most links are updated to their current article). --Spencerian 15:30, 25 October 2006 (CDT)
Opening or closing credits
I recently moved a few names in the cast section based on the opening credits. But then I took noticed of the closing credits and noticed that this is where the original order came from. I'm not reverting because I'm still not sure which is right (or rather, less wrong). However, I'd assume that the opening credits, per most films, would consist of the stars, which makes my edit the best option. But of course, there are other forces working, so what's the concensus? --Mars 22:03, 19 December 2006 (CST)
"12 Models" note
Do we know (or have any theories) as to who placed the note saying there are only 12 cylon models in Adama's quarters? --Rapturous 07:53, 22 October 2007 (CDT)
- RDM re-indicated recently that he believes that it was Baltar who left the note, which makes sense seeing as Six told him that there were twelve models. I don't have a link on me, but a google search should turn something up.-- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New 08:01, 22 October 2007 (CDT)
- I always thought it was pretty obvious that is was Baltar after being told by Six. --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 08:11, 22 October 2007 (CDT)
- Yeah, I don't know why that's such a big question. It has to be Baltar. He got the info from Six and said that he's on noone's side. So while he doesn't openly support mankind, leaving a note is in his own interest. Sure, it's not openly said, but rather obvious. --Serenity 10:57, 22 October 2007 (CDT)

"Night"?
Is "Night" supposed to be the miniseries title? Where does it say so? I haven't been able to corroborate this.--Dvd-junkie 12:21, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- Night is not an official part of the title. The "Miniseries" articles are split up between "Night 1" and "Night 2," because the Miniseries originally aired over two nights. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 13:25, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- Following the usual naming conventions, shouldn't the articles be properly titled "Miniseries, Part I" and "Part II"?--Dvd-junkie 15:23, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- The Miniseries is unusual in that it is one complete entity (and has only one production number) split over two nights. This is unlike a two-part episode (like "Kobol's Last Gleaming," for instance) that was treated by the production staff as two different episodes with two different production numbers. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 19:30, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- Still, it's an odd title. It isn't even a title. On the other hand, the original series pilot isnt't titled "Saga Of A Star World, pre Camp Davis breaking news" and "Saga Of A Star World, post Camp Davis breaking news" (or "Saga Of A Star World, Parts I through III" since it was split after its first airing). Why does the article have to be split at all? Since it is one entity, why not merge the articles and simply mention that it was split for airing?--Dvd-junkie 23:26, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
- The article was split for browser/MediaWiki performance issues, not to mention readability. It is easier to split articles that are overly long, like the Miniseries or SOSW than to merge everything together. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 23:46, 11 November 2009 (UTC)
