:That's kind of a tricky question. He is on patrol with Boomer, but the patrol was before they arrived at Earth (and the Boomer (1980) timeline begins). So that's either an early Boomer (1980) (since it falls before the normal 1980 timeline) or a late Boomer (TOS) (since it falls after the normal TOS timeline). I chose the latter, since I associate Boomer (1980) with the grey-haired veteran rather than as a front-line Viper pilot. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 11:27, 30 December 2006 (CST) | :That's kind of a tricky question.

This article is just a plot summary of [[The Return of Starbuck]]. I would suggest merging the content here into a sub-section of [[Starbuck (TOS)]] and re-directing the page. The character of Starbuck is essentially the same in TOS and this episode, I can't see what is gained by having two separate pages.

:The split was the result of [[Talk: | ::The split was the result of [[Talk:Doctor_Zee|this conversation]] (which is really old, actually, and back before I was a sysop). The main thrust is that 1980 is a separate continuity, one which a lot of TOS fans probably wished didn't exist. Breaking out 1980 content into continuity specific articles allow those articles to be accurate within their own contexts without cross-contaminating each other (and diminishing the potential for contradictions). If this doctrine were carried out more strictly then we'd see a few more splits yet (one for ''Galactica'', for example), but 1980 has always been something of a pariah round here, and doesn't get the attention that some of the other continuities/series do. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 16:45, 21 August 2007 (CDT) | ||
