| == BS vs BSG ==
| |
|
| |
| Hi there. Just noticed your edits to [[Galactica (RDM)]] and [[Pegasus (RDM)]]. Just to let you know, the prefix BS is the ''hull number'' for the battlestars in question. BSG is an acronym for [[Battlestar Group]]. I know it's a bit off-putting, particularly since both battlestars share the same number as their hull number. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [http://www.sanctuarywiki.org Sanctuary Wiki — ''New'']</sup> 18:51, 16 October 2007 (CDT)

| :So what would be the appropriate prefix, BS or BG? From your notes in the history log, the landing bay plate reads "BG", but the article refers to "BS". {{unsigned|Fredmdbud}}

| :: The appropriate prefix is "BS", the way it was before in the article. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [http://www.sanctuarywiki.org Sanctuary Wiki — ''New'']</sup> 19:08, 16 October 2007 (CDT)

| We already have a switch indicating the character itself is a FF Cylon. I doubt this is a role of the character. [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|talk]]) 01:52, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

| Hardly. I've watched your edits. You're a pretty detail oriented cat. Thanks for the hard work (especially with regards to the TOS stuff). --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 20:08, 10 April 2009 (UTC)
