Welcome to the BSG Wiki, Steelviper! Be sure to fill in your User page sometime to introduce yourself! --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 17:26, 26 October 2005 (EDT)
:User page created (albeit quite spartan).  Thanks for the encouragement.--[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 12:52, 27 October 2005 (EDT)


== Thanks for the offer and hospitality, Mr. Viper ==
== Rave Reviews! ==


Thank you so much for your words of welcome into this well put together website as well as the offer to display my artwork on a budding Battlestar Galactica fansite. I am flattered by your proposal and I would be happy to participate. I do not claim on being the best fan artist out there. I don't have graphic images or fancy computer programs. All I have is a sheet of paper, colored pencils, a scanner (which is momentarily broken), and a PowerPoint program to add additional information. Regardless, I will try my best to give BSG fans what they want. I would be honored to put my art on your site.
Hey. [http://battlestarwiki.org/index.php?title=Battlestar_Wiki:Characters&curid=3315&diff=18646&oldid=17786 Nice work]. Probably we should rework that section, now, to simply be a note to leave the Unknown Delegate alone. However, it's 4:33am here and I don't feel like doing it just now. Anyway, welcome and glad to have you. --[[User:Day|Day]] 05:33, 3 December 2005 (EST)


Thank you so much for the offer. So say we all (or maybe just me).
== King of the TOS Pages! ==


-Forestbender
Hey, Steel. I'm sure many of us are noticing you taking point in getting the TOS pages filled in and fortified. It's much appreciated. Someday, when I'm drunk, I'll buy my TOS DVDs and join in. (I'll need some crystal meth to go to get myself to watch Galactica 1980, but you gotta do what you gotta do.) --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 10:08, 14 December 2005 (EST)


== Definitely gallery format ==
:Thanks!  I agreed completely with your observation that our TOS deficiencies are pretty embarrassing.  Actually, much of the progress stems from working the [[Special:Wantedpages]] as suggested by the "Original Series Article Development Project."  That was the first I had heard of that page, and I love it!  A lot of the bigger offenders were topics where there was plenty of information available, it was just spread out across the wiki.  Hopefully it won't be too long before the front page of the "wanted" pages are all user pages. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 10:29, 14 December 2005 (EST)


Mr. Viper,
==Screenshots==


Regarding your suggestions on what format to use for the Fan Art gallery, I think it should definitely be in a gallery format. Being a long time user of Wikis everywhere, I always found it easier to visually see the picture than to continuously click on an article and read look at it to see what it's like. Please advise.
First off, although I am not personally a fan of TOS, I want to commend you for your contributions to those pages here. I think our site has benifited immensely during the relatively short time you've been active here.

Secondly, I note that there is a quite a dearth of good illustrative screen captures from TOS episodes. To that end, I would like to offer to donate a copy of the TOS DVD box set to you via Amazon.com or somesuch. Let me know if this would be useful. --[[User:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 19:30, 22 December 2005 (EST)


== DeviantArt Notice ==
:Thanks! I appreciate the thought. "[[Imperious Leader|Santa Claus]]" already beat you to the punch, though. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 08:05, 28 December 2005 (EST) (Updated)


Dear Mr. Viper (I think that's going to be your new nickname if I may be so bold),
== Administrator Nomination ==


I will definitely spread the word to other BSG Deviants. The only reason I haven't been posting art is (this is humiliating) I forgot how to upload images.
Seeing how you've just as obsessed with this place as many of us are, [[Battlestar_Wiki:Requests_for_adminship/Steelviper|I've nominated you as an administator.]] --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 11:44, 27 December 2005 (EST)


Incompetently yours,
:Thanks! I'll get right on that. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 12:13, 27 December 2005 (EST)

== You're gonna be happy with me, Mr. Viper ==
== Congrats! ==


Dear Mr. Viper,
You are now an admin!  If you have any questions, feel free to bring them to me or any of your fellow admins.  So say we all. -- [[User:Joe.Beaudoin|Joe Beaudoin]] 21:24, 3 January 2006 (EST)


As you have told me, I have started to direct Deviants to BSP. I haven't just directed, I've downright recruited. I already have at least five incredibly gifted artists who have agreed to let us use their pictures. However, one of them asked if this is good for college credit. Is it? Please contact me ASAP.
:Welcome to the clubhouse. --[[User:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 21:37, 3 January 2006 (EST)

:Since you're the new kid, you have to do the mopping. Congrats! --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 01:44, 4 January 2006 (EST)


== BSP ==
::Thanks guys! I'll try not to make too big of a mess. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 09:01, 4 January 2006 (EST)


Mr. Viper,
::: Yes. Congrats. Don't let my "neutral" vote imply that I'll point a gun at your head when you try to depose the President of the Colonies or anything. *wink* --[[User:Day|Day]] 10:34, 4 January 2006 (EST)


I have a good idea. Really good idea.
==Galactica 1980==


You know how on the character pages in BSW, they give all this info on the colony, the job, the birth name, etc. of the character. What if we used that same format for the users of BSP? See my user page to get the idea of what I'm talking about.
Hi Steelviper. Send me an email at weller43@cox.net so I can confirm for you that the site you mentioned is mine. - Mark Weller  [[User:Mokwella|Mokwella]] 23:24, 3 January 2006 (EST)


If you like it, submit your own. I can't wait to see what colony you're from.
:Since Joe, as host, is ultimately the liable party, it would probably be best to go directly to him. --[[User:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 00:58, 4 January 2006 (EST)


-Forestbender
::I didn't mean to stir anything up when I linked to your site. I just stumbled across it, as there isn't that much that comes up on a Google search for "Galactica 1980 dvd". Hopefully after you've emailed Joe everything will be clear. Sorry for any inconvenience. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 09:01, 4 January 2006 (EST)
:While we could add "Colony" to the User Data template, I'm not sure how frequently it'd get filled out. I'm not terribly proud of my birth colony (based on my birthdate) of Aquaria, seeing as how badly our team got stomped by the [http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j81/steel_viper/BSG/panthers.jpg Picon Panthers] last season. Though if people did want to fill in that kind of information, using the Character Data template like you did is the perfect way to do it, in my opinion. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 15:36, 22 March 2008 (CDT)

Idea for the header. :) [[User:Shane|Shane]] ([[User_Talk:Shane|talk]]) 16:07, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for spotting these typos. It's an unusually common one with me. I'm getting better about catching them, but some still slip through. --[[User:Day|Day]] 15:01, 16 January 2006 (EST)
:Oh. The random images. OK. I'll get right on that. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 08:26, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Not sure if you were already aware, but Tricia began a podcast called "[https://www.syfy.com/tags/battlestar-galacticast Battlestar Galacticast]" that may be worth exploring. I've only begun listening to it, but it looks very promising for new nuggets of information. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 21:57, 22 May 2019 (PDT)
 
==Age==
Nice to see some new activity on the wiki. Particularly I was amused by you updating your age for the first time in a decade. Did you know that we have a template to calculate age so that you don't need to manually keep updating it? <nowiki>{{age|yyyy|mm|dd}}</nowiki> --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 05:15, 24 May 2019 (PDT)
