| Just added images from "[[Fragged]]" concerning Quorum delegates, at least the ones that correspond to those from "[[Colonial Day]]". And expanded on [[Oswyn Eriku]]'s page, something I picked up concerning Unnamed Delegate #3 and also something to possibly update the [[List of pilots]] page. - [[User:CoreyDanian|Corey "Shadow" Danian]] ([[User talk:CoreyDanian|talk]]) 07:47, 22 December 2025 (UTC) | | Just added images from "[[Fragged]]" concerning Quorum delegates, at least the ones that correspond to those from "[[Colonial Day]]".

| :Awesome Corey! I expect there to be discontinuities as production didn't keep tabs on these types of things, particularly as the show went on. We should note any contradictions, particularly as background or bit actors tend to play different characters throughout the run of the show. (Not to mention the same people tend to be reused throughout the prequels.)

| See this [https://en.battlestarwiki.org/Special:BlockList?wpTarget=&wpOptions%5B%5D=tempblocks&wpOptions%5B%5D=autoblocks&wpOptions%5B%5D=userblocks&blockType=&limit=50&wpFormIdentifier=blocklist blocklist] that shows all of the prebanned IP addresses; Given that IP addresses are often shared by many users instead of being tied to one person and it’s easy to bypass an IP ban if you know what you're doing, shouldn’t this IP be unbanned to avoid catching innocent users in the crossfire and because the person who used that IP address likely isn’t using it anymore?

| :These are good insights and points. I'll need to dig into those older IP ranges to see what Wikipedia has to say, as they deal with this stuff more than I ever have.

| == Clarification ==
| |
|
| |
| :To clarify, I am not the user behind the IP address in question, nor do I have any personal connection to it. My insistence stems from a concern that the block may be causing '''collateral damage''' by preventing legitimate, good-faith contributors from a shared range or location from participating. I believe it is important to ensure our blocking policyfocuses on current protection rather than indefinite punishment, especially if the original issue is now outdated. My only goal is to support '''consistent enforcement''' and the growth of the wiki by making sure we aren't unnecessarily turning away potential editors.

| ::Aren’t you going to reply back? [[Special:Contributions/71.201.175.234|71.201.175.234]] 22:00, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
| |
| :::Yes. My decision stands as it is, given history behind that particular IP. I find the insistence curious, even still, and am left to wonder if there isn't a more sinister view behind it. Please note, I have uplifted the other blocks for the time being, so this is the only one that stands. Neither of you may agree with that, but my decision is final at this point in time. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 23:11, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
| |
| :::Addendum: I will also note that Battlestar Wiki did suspend IP/anonymous editing for the better part of a decade, as it became more of a burden to deal with issues stemming from it than not. That decision may also be reversed, but I have decided to loosen the reins a bit given some of the newer technologies in play, and for reasons that you both seem to have shared. Please do not make me regret my decision. End of line. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 23:13, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
