Hello.  If you are indeed Bradley Thompson, writer of such DS9 classics as "Rules of Engagement", "Inquisition", and "Treachery, Faith, and the Great River", BSG's pilot-centric episodes such as "The Hand of God", "Scar", and the ever popular "Downloaded".....yay! (my head explodes)  However, you must understand that as this is an open content site potentially anyone could join up here and ''claim'' to be Bradley Thompson.  I have an easy way to confirm this:  I correspond with Ron's wife Terry on the official messageboard (where she is known as "Mrs. Ron").  If you are Bradley, please tell Ron, to tell Terry, who can then foward the confirmation to me on the messageboard.  --[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] <sup>([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]])</sup> 11:54, 8 June 2006 (CDT)

Well - Now that the identity has been confirmed, i'd like to congratulate and welcome Bradley Thompson to the wiki! :) --[[User:Fordsierra4x4|Fordsierra4x4]] 17:15, 8 June 2006 (CDT)

:And thanks for such "sat on the edge of the chair" action and such moving drama ^_^ --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] 17:17, 8 June 2006 (CDT)

:Excellent: confirmation is on this page:  [[Sources:Affidavit on the identity of User:Ngarenn]]  --[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] <sup>([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]])</sup> 20:58, 8 June 2006 (CDT)

: Thank you all - hope I'll be able to contribute without messing things up.  [[User:Ngarenn|Ngarenn]] 13:21, 9 June 2006 (CDT)

::We're just glad to have you! Contribute all you want, and the janitors will mop where necessary. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 13:23, 9 June 2006 (CDT)

::We created a page where we ask questions... [[BW:OC|here.]] Have you seen your article yet: [[Bradley Thompson]]. Glad to have ya here also! :) --[[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 13:35, 9 June 2006 (CDT)

:::Stuff to start out with:  when you edited Racetrack's page you spoke in the first person ("I told the art department")  We are by no means some officially licensed "Encyclopedia", we're just fans, but we're trying our hardest to ''fool'' everyone into thinking we are! :) So we try to make everything formalized by writing in the third person:  I.e. "Bradley Thompson said..." etc.  For example, Trek writer Mike Sussman actually contributes to the Star Trek Wiki:  When he was talking about the writer's room backround discussions between himself and Berman on [http://www.memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/E%C2%B2#Background_Information this section], he uses third person.  Hmm...oh yeah, and to link things, use double brackets like this: <nowiki> [[Final Cut]] </nowiki>.  That's about all you need in short:  I didn't know how the frak wiki-code worked when I got here when the show began; it's pretty intuitive.  --[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] <sup>([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]])</sup> 14:40, 9 June 2006 (CDT)

Not an official question, but just out of curiosity, how did you first find BattlestarWiki? (That is, when you came to correct us about the spelling of Racetrack's name).  Thanks.  --[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] <sup>([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]])</sup> 11:07, 27 July 2006 (CDT)

== "Skin" ==

We updated the skin and you might have some viewing problems. You can goto your "preferences" and goto the skin tab and change to. I am suggesting to everyone right now that everyone use the "bsgbook" skin, just because it's the one that is most complete. --[[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 22:20, 21 August 2006 (CDT)

-Bradley, as the series winds down (and, hopefully, as a new series winds up), I wanted to extend a personal thank you on behalf of everyone here on the wiki for taking time out to answer questions and provide insight about the show as only one so closely tied to the series could do. ''Battlestar Galactica'' is and will be noted as one of the best television shows ever produced, and it was a genuine pleasure for all the contributors here to document the excellent storytelling, production, directing and acting that you, Ron, the Davids, and so many more worthy people have appreciated. I hope that you're involved in ''Caprica'' and look forward to more tales of wonder and woe. It'll be weird to not feel depressed on Friday nights now. :) Thanks again and good luck from all of us on Battlestar Wiki. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 04:06, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
-:hear hear! :) Thanks Brad! Your welcome to join us anytime including the forum itself. :) [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|talk]]) 14:18, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
