| Back after a bit of a haitus for various reasons. Personal life issues and various other things. I just got back from [[w:Glastonbury Festival|Glastonbury]] so i'm a bit knackered atm but will get back to work this week here on the wiki etc. With the exception of my best friends wedding on the weekend of the 8th im now back and ready for action. If somsone could update me on whats going on and stuff by email I would be really grateful, cheers.

| == Jurgen Belzen spoiler ==
| |
| | |
| Note that this character is known since "Pegasus". All that is new now is a name. Before that the article was called "Unnamed Pegasus Executive Officer". Same information, no spoiler. On the one hand, it's a spoiler that he will appear in "Razor", but on the other hand it's kind of obvious. This is something of an gray area. Depends on how far one goes when determining how 'spoilerish' something is. Of course it might be better to err on the side of caution and tag everything where he is mentioned, but it also seems a bit excessive. --[[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 16:36, 14 August 2007 (CDT)

| :Well, the only thing that ''is'' a spoiler (using our definition, anyway) is the Kendra Shaw stuff, and the XO's name. We already know that Cain kills the XO on the bridge, per the appropriate season 2 eps. If anything, just apply the spoiler warnings to Shaw, and that's it. -- [[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> 18:18, 14 August 2007 (CDT)

| Hello Shane, [[User talk:Thwidra|Catrope told me]] to ask you, if you could run the Interwiki-Bot, please? :-) I've added a lot of DE to EN-Links in the German Battlestar Galactica Wiki, especially in the new articles. Thanks. --[[User:Thwidra|Thwidra]] 07:45, 21 August 2007 (CDT)

| == ArchiveBot ==
| |
| | |
| Is there any way we can keep the archivebot edits from registering as page-changes? Half of the messages I get from the wiki are references to it's actions, which, actually, I don't mind, except for the fact that it farks with my watch list, which means I have to hit the page in question to reset the watch notifications. Can we find a way around that? ~~ [[User:Durandal|Durandal]] 00:13, 6 October 2007 (CDT)
| |
| :At the moment, no. Sorry. We would have to hack MediaWiki for a non-watch list Bot edit etc. But even those are required sometimes if I bot goes crazy. :) [[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 11:16, 6 October 2007 (CDT)
