This Page is for general discussions of this Wiki


Actual Responsibility[edit]

Who is the person, responsible for maintenance? It seems that all senior-officers of the BSG are inactive. Shane, Joe, aso... Joe is not responding on mails and other contact metohdes.


Problems[edit]

  • French wiki unavailable
  • Strange "SQL" Errors on the german wiki



Alternative contacts?[edit]

If none of the Battlestar Wiki senior chiefs are available, maybe contacting someone outside would be helpful: "Paul Gu" and "pair Networks" are listed at the very bottom of each page. Maybe if one or both of them are still active and understand the situation, they can intervene. -- BlueResistance 23:03, 14 August 2014 (EDT)

I tryed to contact Paul Gu right now. I hope he will give me an answer --Enabran 05:05, 15 August 2014 (EDT).


Future[edit]

What if Joe has gone too? Will that be the end of this wiki?

I imagine it would be closed only if Joe instructs the hosting company to close it. If it's clear to Paul Gu and/or the company hosting the wiki that Joe is no longer active, and they see that it's active contributors who are requesting a transfer of ownership and not just some stranger to the wiki, I would be willing to bet that they would transfer it. There are enough references to the Battlestar Wiki on Wikipedia and other sites to argue that the site should remain up and running as a general resource. -- BlueResistance 22:59, 15 August 2014 (EDT)
