:::Yeah, I see that point. This is one of those things were I could go either way. Neither is entirely wrong IMO. It's not really a full sentence though, which is why I prefer lower case personally --[[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 03:35, 10 May 2007 (CDT)

:I do personally believe that Battlestar is a proper name, I don't consider it on par with something like "destroyer" etc, for multiple reasons. I agree that it looks odd lower-cased as well. Bradley Thompson responded to this question at [[Battlestar Wiki:Official Communiques/Archive6#Battlestar or battlestar? (Basestar or basestar, et cetera)]]. The Wiki's MoS does state not to capitalise ([[BW:SAC#Ships]]). [[User:Matthew|Matthew]] 04:17, 10 May 2007 (CDT)

== Physically-seen ships only? ==
 
Despite the coolness of their recent discovery (a Battlestar Wiki exclusive!), I removed the two new battlestars from the list, as we don't have Solaria, or Triton or Atlantia there either, and it just musses up the template. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 15:31, 14 May 2007 (CDT)
: Maybe we should make a template for "mentioned-only" ships? Or simply create a list of ships, a la [[List of Vipers]]? -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 16:22, 14 May 2007 (CDT)
:: I love template, but that's too much. ;-) If we ''really'' think or more information about the mentioned only stuff comes about then I say template it up.

::I concur with Shane. The categories work fine, and the [[Battlestar]] super-disambig is pretty good (if I do say so myself) for this idea as well. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 10:34, 15 May 2007 (CDT)
