:Yeah, this doesn't warrant an own article. But I'd go so far to say that it's not worth noting that the Cylons just happen to have a similarity to one, or the, first scifi stories to feature killer robots. Of course they do. Everything has been doe before one shape or another. A real, confirmed inspiration for the human Cylons is ''Blade Runner'' though, which is also based on a story by Phillip K. Dick. --[[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 04:32, 6 June 2007 (CDT)

:It may merit mention elsewhere, but not an article on the wiki.

::I removed it from [[Cylons (RDM)]] as that's really a portal. An appropriate page could be [[Cylon Centurion]], but I still don't think that it's really relevant. --[[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 07:46, 6 June 2007 (CDT)

:::I can find even more connnections to the man-machine themes in ''Battlestar'' and ''The Matrix''. Doesn't mean that they need to be mentioned on Battlestar Wiki. The ''Blade Runner'' stuff is coincidental, too; plenty of aired SF has used androids prior to Dick's stories. Concur on speedy delete. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 07:52, 6 June 2007 (CDT)
::::I've updated the [[Cylon History]] article with relevant notes on Dick and his stories per the original article (now deleted). --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 10:08, 6 June 2007 (CDT)
