Working on the Featured Episode todo's:
{{Battlestar Wiki:Original Series Article Development Project/Featured Episode}}
<br clear="all" />


I have watched this featured episode.
Priorities (in no particular order):


===[[Battlestar Wiki:Podcast Transcripts|Podcast Transcripts]]===
* Episode summaries
I've done a few podcast transcripts. I'd appreciate it if somebody would verify those.
**There's only one season worth of material, so there's not much excuse not to have episode summaries on all of the TOS episodes.


==Development Pages==
* Galactica 1980 Content
Experimental pages or pages in development that aren't ready for the main namespaces (yet).
**[[User:Mokwella|Mokwella]] has contributed a wealth of info on this, so I'm trying to format it and categorize it to be uniform.
**This sort of falls outside the scope of TOS, but since it is part of the more neglected content so I'm hoping we can bring it along.
**I need a pic and bio info for "Col. Boomer" from the 1980 series.


* [[User:Steelviper/Ads]] - some "advertising" ideas for Battlestar Wiki
===[[Battlestar Wiki:Island of Misfit Images|Island of Misfit Images]]===
I'd encourage everybody to check out the [[Battlestar Wiki:Island of Misfit Images|Island of Misfit Images]], the home of some images that have been uploaded but not linked to. Hopefully you can either help them find a good home, or help identify ones that need to be deleted.


==Future Projects==
===[[Battlestar Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard|Administrators' noticeboard]]===
* [http://www.battlestargalactica.com/classicdocs/pop_art0039.htm TOS nitpicks] - a neat link I found looking for Red Squadron info.
I've got this added to my watchlist. We'll see whether or not the idea catches on.


==Steelviper's Thoughts==
===[[Battlestar Wiki:Translation Project|Translation Project]]===
Pages in my userspace where I reflect on wiki or BSG stuff.
I've been helping out some with the i18n effort. (Yep, there are 18 letters between the "i" and the "n", and that's the way we used to abbreviate it at one of my former jobs.) As we start to get more native/advanced speakers onboard this I'll probably focus more on my usual link-fixing/pattern following habits on the translated pages, leaving the real translation to the people that possess such talents.


* [[User:Steelviper/Admin|On Adminship]]
==Development Pages==
Experimental pages or pages in development that aren't ready for the main namespaces (yet).


== Personal Records ==
* [[User:Steelviper/CommunityPortal]] - a group effort to prototype the community portal
* 1 mile: 5:33.41 - August 13, 2007


==Origin of Nickname==
==Future Projects==
"A truly fearsome beast, the great viper of Arcadia possesses strength and tenacity unmatched by any other predator on that world. It coils around its prey in a crushing embrace, then finishes its kill with a deadly poison. The warriors of the Clan I name Steel Viper show remarkable tenacity in battle and in their service to our great mission. May they continue to serve with unshakable faith, and may their opponents learn to fear the fangs of the Steel Vipers."<br />
-- From Birth of a New Society: The Collected Writings of Nicholas Kerensky, Strana Mechty Press, 3025
 
== Brazilian Jiu Jitsu  ==
 
I'm a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, having trained for over a decade now.


* TOS Character histories
**If nobody else has done this, I may start updating the character histories of major characters to be more like [[Boomer (TOS)]], having a brief synopsis of what happens to them throughout the series (complete with episode citations).

I have been known to post to civfanatics.com, glocktalk.com, ar15.com, and bikeforums.net using this same handle.  So if you see a Steelviper there, it's me. I also have a Steelviper account over at wikipedia now, but I've got about 5 edits.
