Wouldn't it make sense to move Tory and Anders to "Supporting" now, since they'll have a much bigger role in season 4? [[User:Ausir|Ausir]] 03:34, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

== Template bloat ==
== "Dead" Characters into a new template? ==


We're running into the same problem we've [[Template talk:Characters/Archive1|run into before]] with the sudden bloat that this template has taken on. We need to seriously discuss this, otherwise I can see it getting ridiculous real frakking quickly. -- [[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> 07:00, 5 December 2009 (UTC)
This template getting way to big for everything. Maybe we split the dead to a new template? [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|talk]]) 14:48, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 
:Sounds like a plan. At the speed they're killing off characters now, the deceased section will like double in size before the mid-season break. --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]<sup>([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]])</sup> 14:52, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
:Agreed, recurring characters was completely out of hand, I cleaned it up, removing [[Richard Adar]], [[Layne Ishay]], [[Peter Laird]], and [[Kendra Shaw]] while fixing line breaks, I think it looks better now. It can probably be tightened up a little bit more.  [[User:JubalHarshaw|JubalHarshaw]] 21:28, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
:Ditto what's been said. Probably best to leave a link in this template for the dead people, though. Perhaps a category for dead people is also in order now? (Something that can be auto-applied from the Character Data template?) -- [[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> 16:07, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
 
::I hate to do that as it makes the alpha order of the categories wrong. :| [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|talk]]) 18:27, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
:: I might go one step further and just say we need a "recurring characters" plate for those pages with important recurring characters, and have that applied to those pages only. Also, I would probably remove [[Jean Barolay]] too. -- [[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> 21:36, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
:::[[Template:Dead Characters|New template made]]. [[User:OTW|OTW]] 19:50, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
::::I just had a rather morbid idea, we could make a page listing every death in the series (including manner thereof). Could be quite interesting. [[User:OTW|OTW]] 19:52, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
