	I undid your edit to the note on Hera, Lord of Kobol. She is the older sister, not step-sister, to Zeus, per many sources (esp. reknowned mythology researcher Edith Hamilton). --[[User:Spencerian\|Spencerian]] 23:34, 19 May 2007 (CDT)		I undid your edit to the note on Hera, Lord of Kobol.

			== Deletion of Article ==

			Mudflap, per our [[BW:CJ\|citation policy]], the article you created named "Imperious Leader (RDM)" has been deleted. There is no such character, either in aired episodes or in [[separate continuity]] works, in the [[Re-imagined Series]] continuity. The closest match to the [[Imperious Leader\|Original Series version]] is the [[Basestar command]] in the Re-imagined Series. Please remember that Battlestar Wiki does not allow [[fan fiction]] or [[BW:FANW\|unsourced, speculative]] articles. If you have any questions about this deletion or any other policy or guideline, please feel free to leave a question on my talk page. --[[User:Spencerian\|Spencerian]] 23:41, 19 May 2007 (CDT)

	Hi, Mudflap. Sorry to undo your edit, but the notion of silica pathways is more of a technology that probably forms a Cylon brain, not a computer itself. That information has its own article as well as located in the Physiology section of [[Humanoid Cylon]], anyway. Also, adding a link and no text isn't too useful there. If there's something I was missing about your edit, do let me know--I don't like reverting articles and want to use whatever contributors that someone takes time to enter. --[[User:Spencerian\|Spencerian]] 20:53, 9 May 2007 (CDT)		Hi, Mudflap.

	:Because of the non sequitur nature of silly pages, they have to be created to be funny immediately and effectively to have a place on this otherwise "serious" wiki. I guess a simple way to say it is that our silly pages are usually complex humor pages and aren't "one-liner" jokes as your contribution was. Also, the use of the term could be confusing if there is a "Number Thirteen" later in the new series.

			:Mudflap, my apologies, but Shane (a fellow admin here) may have miscited the reasons why the Number Thirteen article was deleted, believing you were attempting to make a serious article. On review, I noted you were attempting to create a silly page, which are welcome on Battlestar Wiki provided that the article adheres to the [[BW:SILLY\|policies on silly pages]] and if consensus determines that the page is sufficiently funny and relevant. Based on that policy, the article is too short to form its own humor within itself (referencing a Wikipedia article of a show that I and possibly others are not familiar with, and as such don't get the joke).

Spencerian: Welcome to Battlestar Wiki!

2007-05-04T02:41:47Z

Welcome to Battlestar Wiki!

New page

== Welcome to Battlestar Wiki! ==
Welcome to the Wiki, Mudflap. Tell us about yourself on [[User:Mudflap|your user page]]. We have a [[Template:User Data|template]] that lets you put some information about yourself in a nice-looking box.

Battlestar Wiki is an encyclopedia on '''officially-licensed stories, aired episodes, and other products of the ''Battlestar'' universes.''' Make sure that your contributions fit [[Battlestar Wiki:What is Battlestar Wiki|Battlestar Wiki's purpose]], avoiding [[BW:NOT|what we aren't]].

Our [[BW:SAC|editing standards and conventions policies]] may differ from other wikis, especially in verb tense and voice, capitalization and the like. '''Please read this policy.''' We have [[BW:TUT|an editing tutorial]] and [[BW:MARK|wiki markup codes]] to help you.

Our policies on [[w:Original research|original research]] differ from places such as Wikipedia. We allow [[BW:CJ#Derived Content|some research based on aired episode content]], but don't allow [[BW:FANW|speculation that isn't supported from episode events]].

Battlestar Wiki's [[Battlestar Wiki:Project List|many projects]] help improve our content. Are you an [[Original Series]] fan? Help out in the [[Battlestar Wiki:Original Series Article Development Project|Original Series Article Project]]. [[Battlestar Wiki:Translation Project|Non-English versions of Battlestar Wiki]] also need contributors, and helpers for our [[BW:POD|podcast transcriptions]] are also welcome. New projects should be brought to our [[BW:TANK|Think Tank]], where we hash out large-scale ideas before implementing them.

Any questions about an article can be entered on the article's talk page. General questions about the wiki can be brought to [[Battlestar Wiki:Wikipedian Quorum|the Quorum]] or [[Battlestar Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard|the administrators' noticeboard]]. To sign your posts on any talk page, just enter four tildes (~~~~)!

We look forward to your contributions to the community!
