Escyos: /* Editing */

== Welcome to Battlestar Wiki! ==

Greetings, {{PAGENAME}}, and welcome to Battlestar Wiki! I'm pleased to tell you that you have full editing privileges on every wiki in the Battlestar Wiki network. I hope you enjoy your stay with us and am looking forward to your contributions to the Wiki! Why not begin by telling us a bit about yourself on your own [[User:{{PAGENAME}}|user page]]?

As you may already know, Battlestar Wiki covers all the ''Battlestar Galactica'' series from past to present, in addition to authorized merchandise. Presently, we don't cover fan fiction, but our sister-site, [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]], does so. We're also not a discussion site, although we do have an ever-growing [http://www.battlestarforum.com Battlestar Forum] where people can discuss the various shows and non-BSG topics as well!

To get started on the wiki, we suggest that you check out our [[BW:TUT|tutorial]], experiment in [[BW:SAND|the sandbox]] (a test editing area for those learning wiki code), and review some of our basic [[BW:POL|policies]] (which have important differences from other SF wikis). For some general questions and answers about the navigation and operation of the Wiki, check out the [[Battlestar Wiki:FAQ|Frequently Asked Questions]] (FAQ).

Of course, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, you are more than welcome to bring them up at the [[BW:CN|Chiefs' noticeboard]] (which is frequented by the administrators of the Wiki) and at the [[BW:GQ|Galactipedians' Quorum]] (which is the hub for contributors, who are called "Galactipedians").

Furthermore, if you don't wish to see the ads, then please consider upgrading your account to a [[BW:MEMBERSHIP|paid membership]], which costs only $10 USD a year and helps support the wiki financially. This membership also extends to the [http://www.battlestarforum.com Battlestar Forum], where you can talk to other members about the show and most anything that you want to talk about to BSG fans! We think this is very cool, and we hope you do as well!

Thank you for joining us! Hope to see you soon!

== Block? ==

"Salut Facy, Juste une petite question comme ça, as-tu accès au wiki indépendant d'Escyos ? J'ai comme l'impression qu'il a verrouillé l'accès sur mon adresse IP, j'ai une erreur 403, accès interdit. Peux-tu me le confirmer STP. Merci."

Why yes, I have blocked you, and will continue to block all IP addresses from France until you go somewhere else to steal original content. That previous person you talked to with my name was not me, yet you still block and attack me. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 07:17, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

:: Hi Joe, Sorry for the answer's delay. This "no discussion" is about the english Stargate Wiki hub on Shoutwiki founded by Escyos. During the ShoutWiki outage, Escyos decided by his own to create his own independant Stargate Wiki (no problem for that of course) and to move on. He wanted to mass delete the ShoutWiki hub without asking the Stargate Wiki contributors. I asked Jack Phoenix (ShoutWiki staff) to grant me steward rights to save the Stargate wiki on SW (I'm already the founder of the French Stargate wiki). Following that, the day Escyos decided to leave SW, he provoked me by critising my work. My cold answer didn't pleased him so he decided to block me, remove my admin rights, block my user page and use verbal abuse on my user page without any possibility to defend myself. Then, he started to vandalize the SW Stargate Wiki by nuking all my contributions and all the site's. ShoutWiki Staff blocked and banned him for all SW sites for verbal abuse and vandalism. Since that moment. Escyos is blocking all my IP addresses (and not only mine) on his wiki because he thinks I'm making a conspiracy theory about him by stealing material from his wiki. Here's the story. So he tries to reach me and harrass me by all means, including Battlestar Wiki. Don't worry about that and thank for your concern. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 12:55, 28 May 2011 (EDT)

::::Once again, THAT WAS NOT ME! I was hacked, big time. You think a little revertable vandalism is bad, I actually have people here (in real life) who hate me because they think I wrote all the stuff that hacker did. And I block you because you seem to want to steal content because you can't come up with anything original on your own with NO admittance of where it came from or any recognition. I frankly don't care if you want to take MY great ideas but would want recognition of where it came from. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 14:53, 28 May 2011 (EDT)

Hi LIMAFOX76 ... thank you for taking care of my accidental deletion edit on [[Racetrack]] - nice to see other people interested in the same pages as I am - see you around -- [[User:Flatulist|Flatulist]] 21:52, 17 April 2012 (EDT)

Over the past 3 weeks I have blocked 7 IP addresses from France, by your logic I assume it is you and thus will tell people that you are a wiki vandal. So next time you want to besmirch my name, make sure you are actually talking about me. Its not like it is impossible to route your computer through an IP address in another country.... [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 16:30, 4 May 2012 (EDT)
:I don't trust you and you can tell wathever you want as you're a liar, a sockpuppeter, a pretender and, most of all, a vandal. You don't have anything to do with me and nothing to do with this wiki. The IP addresses you blocked are not mine. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 17:13, 4 May 2012 (EDT)

::And like you I have no proof that those IP addresses were you so I chose to believe that they are in fact you. This is a two way street. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 17:18, 4 May 2012 (EDT)
:::I'm really fed up of these. I didn't do anything against you, yet you're harrassing me for over a year now! I'm wasting my time with you, I'm wasting my energy to fix all the things right. You made a conspiracy theory around me for no reason. Live your life, leave me alone, and it will better for both of us, clearly. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 03:08, 5 May 2012 (EDT)

::::And Im fed up with you spreading lies about me and attempting to access my site obviously for the purposes of vandalism. I too am wasting energy having to track down all the lies you spread, based simply from an IP address in the same country as me. Thats the stupidest reason I have ever heard, you do know that vandals come from pretty much anywhere and do pretty much anything. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 04:11, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
::::: Do really believe I want to vandalize your wiki? I really don't give a shit about your wiki. All I can say is that you're able to vandalize yourself a wiki as you're regularly doing it on Wikia (which I don't like either, but I do not vandalize). Don't say no, you write your facts on your wiki. I'm 43 and really, I have many other fishes to catch than pirating and hacking a wiki. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 04:22, 5 May 2012 (EDT)
::::::I am just doing the same as you and wildly assuming with no facts at all. Wikia deserves to be vandalised, they flaunt their control. Your wiki is nothing but inadequate excuse for competition. The simple fact is YOU are blaming me for NOTHING and thus you too deserve to take the blame for everything I see fit until you realize how stupid your actions really are. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 05:38, 5 May 2012 (EDT)

:::::::Your "preuve concluante" is an IP address from the same country. You continue to spread lies about me, when I have done nothing to you. You are pathetic and so is your wiki. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 07:31, 6 May 2012 (EDT)

Talk:Cloud 9/Archive 1

2012-04-01T20:00:23Z

Escyos: /* Food */

Should the tense of the article be changed to past, now that the Cloud 9 has been destroyed? --[[User:Kraetos|Kraetos]] 11:24, 12 March 2006 (CST)
:Probably not. Even though WE all know that it's gone, it's still there for seasons 1 and 2 (well, most of 2 anyway...). Thus anybody reading about it from a season 1 or earlier 2 standpoint would still see it as existing. I think that's the reasoning behind episodic info being present tense. As for tense about the stuff that happened in the year gap on New Caprica... I assume present tense would be best just to avoid a situation where you're switching back and forth between past and present tense along the same timeline. If there's more discussion of this we might take it over to S&C. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 11:36, 12 March 2006 (CST)
::In the past, we've used past tense for events that ocurred prior to any filmed episode (Anne and William Adama married twenty years prior to the attack; Ellen Tigh was discovered three weeks prior to "TIgh Me Up, Tigh Me Down"), and present tense for events that actually take place during episodes. I'm somewhat partial to that convention, which would put the events of the one-year-gap in the past tense, but I agree that it could be confusing. I'd like to hear others' thoughts. --[[User:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 13:23, 12 March 2006 (CST)
:::Personally, I believe that anything before the Miniseries should be spoken of in the past tense. Everything else should be present tense. At least that's what I'm partial to myself when I edit/write. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] 13:51, 12 March 2006 (CST)
::::I already forsee many problems with tense that are going to crop up thanks to the gap. We can't say "if we saw it on screen as it happened, its present, but if we saw it in a flashback, its past" any more, because that means, for example, the events of day 200 are in present tense, but the events of day 400 are past tense. While changing tenses to be relative to individual articles would make the articles clearer, having tense be relative to the Miniseries is easier to maintain on a large scale. It is also the status quo, and would be a pain to change every article.
::::If we think this issue is serious enough, we should put it somewhere where more people will see it and we will be able to gather ideas. If we decide we need a better solution, I am sure that someone would come up with it. I find that theres always a solution to most problems if you look hard enough and ask a lot of people. Regardless, the present tense solution does work for now, until we start getting into flashbacks - which, I gather will be frequent in the first few episodes of season 3. --[[User:Kraetos|Kraetos]] 23:05, 12 March 2006 (CST)

==Deaths==
I've been trying to work out how many people died when the Cloud Nine was destroyed. Minus the total number of deaths given for the occupation of New Caprica (given during Baltar's trial in ''Crossroads, Part 1'') from the difference in population count between the start of ''LDYB Part 2'' and ''Collaborators'' gives a 2,918-person difference, the majority of whom I'm assuming died when the C9 exploded. However, you also have to factor in all the births and deaths during the year on New Caprica, minus the Marines who died in the rescue mission to Caprica and then plus Anders and his resistance fighters. It's difficult to come to any final figure other than it was in the high 2,000s.--[[User:Werthead|Werthead]] 23:04, 17 March 2009 (UTC)

I always wondered the same thing as well. Although it functioned as a hotel for military personal on rotation and civilians alike, there were people living there as an actual home-ship. With that being said, it can only be assumed that at least, if not more than, 700 or more people perished on that ship alone given it's size and interior configuration. -racetrack

== Food ==

Did anyone else find it weird that they had this massive simulated garden yet did not use it to grow crops or other food. They also went on about how they were rationing food and had to eat algae at one point (yes I know it was destroyed before that). Was there a specific reason for this? I hardly think a nice meeting place for political functions takes precedence over food. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 15:52, 1 April 2012 (EDT)

: Cloud 9 was destroyed by [[Gina Inviere]] (after discovering [[New Caprica]]), and that was a good year or so before the algae issue. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 15:56, 1 April 2012 (EDT)

== Military Ranks ==

Just a few concluding remarks I don't blame you for what you did, where I in your position I would have done the same thing. The reason I didn't respond to Serenity's first post was because until yesterday I had been unable to figure out how. As far as fear of retribution, I've never really been involved with a wiki before so I wasn't really sure what to expect and was kind of intimidated. I appreciate you're addressing my issues. Not only did it help me understand why things were happening the way they were, but it also made me feel like my input was welcome and that was all I was asking for. I am anxious to see any clarification you can offer in the weeks ahead because I find this a rather fascinating topic.

Thanks again for the clarification. {{unsigned|Grandmaester314}}

Hi, I just checked all feature about BW and I didn't see the Dynamic Page List feature. Do you plan one day to install it because it's very useful?--[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 20:32, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

=== Examples ===

Here are some examples I made for the Stargate Wiki FR:

* To see minor characters:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:LigneMineurs Automatic generation of a line with five stamps] using DPL with entry of the series, the season, and the first article sorted.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un/Page_1 Automatic generation of minor characters for the first page] with automatic sort by last name
**[http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un Automatic creation of minor character stamps page links] with automatic image update and automatic update of the first and the last character name of this page.
* To see objects:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Ligne Automatic generation of a line]. All you juste have to do is to put the correct category.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Armes Autogeneration of a page] with the famous lines.
* To resume objects in a bottom navigation bar:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Divers Nav bar] automaticaly updated (put the right category)

All you have to do with this kind or templates is to put the right category and DPL (with a purge) will do the rest. The main purpose of DPL is to avoid editing when the database can do the stuff for you. You don't have to edit an article or a template to update with new article of the same category. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 08:28, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

== What about RFA and RFB for French BW ? ==

Hi Joe,

I'm on the verge to edit the policy for the french version of [[BW:RFA|Request for Admninship]] and [[BW:RFB|Request for Bureaucratship]]. I need your help for this two policies.
# Do I just translate the English version with the same vote system than the main site?
# Do I have to do it in another way?
# Is the principle of request the same than the main site?
Thanks for answering.--[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 11:25, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

: If you have any suggestions as to improve the policies in question, then that would work well. Until the French wiki has more contributors, I don't think the RFA and RFB are really going to work all that well, and so administrators are promoted on a case-by-case basis as determined by you, me, and Shane. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 13:10, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

:: Until I design or translate all the templates needed and the main page, I think there will not be a lot of contributors. The main problem is the lack of French and French-speaking people who speak English fluently. French people are not very confortable with English, so it's very difficult for them to contribute unless they have seen the show and are fans. With your agreement, I will just create one page for RFA and RFB with the statement you said above (Shane, you and me). FYI, all the episodes of the [[Re-Imagined Series]] have been aired in France, and have been released in DVD format (I just saw the Season 4 Part 2 Set yesterday in a supermarket) . --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:22, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

== Advertising and problem on media repository ==

Hi Joe and Happy New Year, 
As I already said to Shan, I can see that you succeed to bring back the wiki. Congratulations. I have two point to ask.
# I made a donation for the wiki to avoid advertising but I still have them on the screen, why? Thank you for your answer.
# On the media repository, I tried to upload an image. It is actually somewhere in the directory but the sofware is unable to create a thumbnail. It says that it cannot find the "convert" file on the server. So for now, it's impossible to add new images on the media repository.
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 15:48, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

: Happy New Year to you too! :D
: Anyway, I went ahead and upgraded your account to sponsor status, so you shouldn't see the ads. If you do, try logging in and out again. If that doesn't work, a hard refresh should clear the cache. As for the convert issue, I'll have Shane look into it. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 15:55, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

1. It seems that [[:fr:User:InterBot|InterBot]] doesn't work because the interwiki link I made on the pages I created aren't duplicated on the other wikis. 
2. I don't have access to [http://www.battlestarpegasus.com/ BS Pegasus] either. It says it's forbidden. Is there any problem since the server transfer or something? 
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 21:41, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
:Hi, Still doesn't work for both points. Do you have any answer for that please? Thanks. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:23, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

: Sorry, I've been pretty busy. (Barely have had time to really work on the wiki, other than to greet the newcomers.) To answer your questions:
: 1. Shane needs to reprogram the InterBot. He hasn't had time to do that as he's been working on projects for Best Buy.
: 2. The BS Pegasus site is down. No ETA on when that'll be back up as it isn't priority. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 01:35, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

== Calendar dates on auction items ==

Hi Joe,

I expanded the [[Colonial calendar#Different Dating Methods]] section with information from a couple of auction items and noticed in the process that you wrote at least some of the blog entries at battlestarprops.com. Do you recall seeing any calendar items I haven't mentioned yet, and if so, could you point me to their pictures? It would also be nice to see a higher resolution scan of Socrata's medal of valor document, if one is available.

Regards,

-- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 19:55, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

: I honestly never really paid all that much attention to the dating thing, since it was all made up anyway. (''Star Trek'''s "stardate" system is a very good example of this, actually. It isn't until they did TNG that they really put thought into it.) There is very little consistency behind the dating on any of the paperwork; in television production, much of it is thrown together—some of it even at the very last minute—even taking into account the quality of BSG's paperwork being higher than other genre television series. It isn't until ''Caprica'' that they really tried to address the issue of the Colonial dating method, because it's simply not natural not to have characters ''not'' say "Hey Lacy, meet me for lunch on Saturday."

: As for photos of the stuff, the [http://archive.propworx.com Propworx archive] has photos of everything that's been auctioned through Propworx. I also know of a few fans who have won many paperwork documents from the BSG auctions (both live and via eBay) that have taken the time to scan them, but most of their work is on private boards and some prop replication communities. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 02:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. The scans on that site have a much higher resolution and I already found a couple of items with supposed dates. I would like to document them in the article primarily to establish that there was no real system in the re-imagined series as opposed to ''Caprica''. Such random alphanumerics also suggest to the reader that the dates in Adama's dossier need not be correct necessarily (e.g. the year 20000+). -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 18:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

== "pos" extended parser function ==

Hi Joe, I would like to ask if it is possible to add the "'''''pos'''''" Parser Function into the wiki, this will allow to do some research more easily (for example to do an action on pages with a certain text and not on the others). Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 12:57, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

Hi !

Yes, it was a real question : how could the pegasus avoid further contamination by the Cylon virus. Is this answered in future episodes ?

Why did you simply remove my question ?

Regards,

== Jupiter-class battlestar issue ==

I have a problem with your edit of my edit on the Jupiter class battlestar Galactica. The book I refered to is canon since it was written by the science advisor to BSG and sactioned by SyFy and Ron Moore. If yoiu prefer your wiki not to contain official information then that is fine and I will not bother to add any other information to your site. I will rely solely on official material such as this book. Cancel my membersip please.
Good Bye. {{unsigned|Lonewriter}}

: Please refer to [[BW:CITE#Acceptable_Sources|Acceptable Sources]], which list the sources of what makes something canon. Just because there is an error in a book sanctioned by Syfy Channel, does not mean it is automatically canon. As I've only started reading the book, I've already noticed errors (mostly with spelling, such as Cally's name), that raises a few doubts in my mind when it comes to how thoroughly the book was copyedited.

: As I believe I had explained, the episode that the writers of the book refer to ("Pegasus") does ''not'' make mention of ''Galactica''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> class. ''At all.'' So, they made a mistake, or improperly cited the source. (Now, if it came from the script for that episode, I can see that. We've used scripts as sources before.)

: Now, if Ron Moore or David Eick were to come out and say "well, they're right, ''Galactica'' is a ''Jupiter'' class" then we will certainly note that, and cite that it came from them. Furthermore, maybe I wasn't clear, but I'm not saying that we should throw out the reference at all, but '''it needs to be pointed out that the way the information is present is in ''direct contradiction to what viewers saw on screen.'''''

: Believe me, were this information aired in "Pegasus" fans would have eaten that up, just like they (we) ate up the whole ''Mercury'' class reference that Adama made before Cain boarded the ship. :)

: Now, as to your immature comment, it does suggest that you probably wouldn't be a good editor here, because you don't seem to understand how to critically analyze information, or the necessity of viewing all information with a critical eye. That's fine. There are people who simply don't have that ability. There's nothing wrong with that. Also, you don't have to use the site, at all. I hate to be disingenuous and brusque, but if you're going to use appeals to emotion instead of actually bothering to do the research (which I, and many, many fans have done over the past five-plus years) then you're welcome to leave and never look back.

: However, let me be particularly clear when I say this: what I have done is pointed out this error, which you've brought to our attention, so thank you for that. Now, if you want to act like a prima donna and storm off in a huff, then that's your call. You're more than welcome to stay, or you are more than welcome to leave.

== William Adama edits ==

I seem to find the spoiler tag formatting (I edit on wikipedia but we have nothing similar there) so I'm just going to be as vague as I can be and hope you understand. While reading over the spoilered info on William Adama's page that you recently added I realized that you have a character connection slightly off. If you check my edit history, you'll see I made a similar change on a related page. Hope that's enough for you to see what I meant (since I can't edit the Old Man's page).

== Duram's files at Propworx ==

Hi Joe,

Have you preserved alternate photographs of Duram's files which are now on eBay? The available photo makes Clarice's file halfway legible, but I'm curious what's in Amanda's and other files. I'm not planning on buying them though, since I'm only interested in the information, not in provenance. Even so, thanks for participating in the auctions — the photos have provided so much useful information that would've normally disappeared with the shows. -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 22:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

: I'd have to ask Jarrod, since he's the one who oversees the Caprica auction stuff out in LA.

What does putting the ref in break? I don't see anything unusual except that the 33 has to be bracketed to be a link. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 22:47, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

: Issue is that the brackets are printed out, and they really shouldn't be. I guess I'll have to modify the infobox template to deal with that.

Hello would you like this wiki to affiliate with my independent wiki http://stargate-wiki.org/ ? [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 23:38, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

Not sure if you got my email or not, anyway, would you prefer to join the SIWA Network (Scifi independent wiki alliance)? http://siwanetwork.webs.com Basically just lets more people interlink with these wikis and its always good to have more links to your site laying around. It costs nothing and we dont really ask for anything in return. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 06:35, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Thank you for the offer, but I will decline. I really see no benefit for this wiki and its contributors in being a part of the SIWA Network. In fact, I feel that our inclusion would only be beneficial for you, seeing as we have a wide exposure. We've run into loose fan organizations like SIWA before, and frankly they are not worth the bandwidth that it takes to pull up the webpage. Our experience is that such things are not professionally run and are basically glorified fly-by-night operations operated by unprofessional, doe-eyed fans with unrealistic expectations. Nothing personal against you, it is just our experience. And, as for traffic and links, we've found that being a part of a glorified "webring" has no return on investiment. A majority of new traffic has always, and without fail, come from two sources: 1) word-of-mouth (forums and social networks), and 2) search engines. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 10:25, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

I had 22 new visitors to my site because of SIWA. Your loss i guess. Also it really doesn't make it less offensive when you call me: unprofessional, doe-eyed fan with unrealistic expectations then say no offence. Even you should see that. Well if you change your mind, let me know. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 11:56, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: And how many of those 22 people will stick around and contribute in the long-haul? Since there are so many Stargate wikis out there, those results aren't surprising... and, don't get your hopes up, as they will be short lived. Traffic from web rings and "alliances" is short-lived, and with extremely poor to negligible long-term ROI. I've been running websites for the last 15 years, so I am well aware of what I'm taking about.

: Furthermore, I was not making a personal attack against you: I was making a general observation about such organizations. However, since you are keen to make it about yourself: given your behavior in the past towards another member of this website (and bringing problems from an outside wiki to this Wiki directly and without provocation from us), I find ''that'' unprofessional.

Thank you for the offer, and have a splendid day. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 12:16, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

Wow, take it overboard much. I was going to link certain articles like actors other work here etc but because of that attitude, you can forget it [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 12:21, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Your attitude and sour disposition are the problems here. After all, you were the one who [[User_talk:LIMAFOX76|brought outside problems from another website to this one]]. ''You'' initiated it here. ''You'' deliberately sought the user in question, tracked them to this website, and brought ''your'' problems to an open forum instead of taking it up with the user via e-mail. ''You'' involved us, and ''I'' put a stop to it. I have no ill will towards you personally, but your immature behavior here and your inability to properly deal with issues in a mature manner exemplifies why we are careful in associating with other organizations and websites.

== Not sure this is a gaffe ==

[[He_That_Believeth_In_Me#Gaffes]] contains this final paragraph, which I think should be deleted:
:Tracey tells Baltar prior to their intercourse that the door to the group's hideout is locked and that only the two of them are in the room, but when Jeanne returns with Derrick, she is able to reenter even though both Tracey and Baltar are still asleep (presumably she said this to put Baltar more at ease).
Saying that a door is locked does not preclude the possibility of others entering. A locked door can be unlocked. Other doors on Galactica are locked with keypads (like the one rigged to blow up Romo Lampkin), and there is no reason to think Jeanne would not have the entry code. [[User:Dogger55|Dogger55]] 16:12, 11 July 2011 (EDT)

:: Many of Galactica's hatches are lockable only from one side, not both. Further, only small arms lockers and other sensitive areas have keypads. Not every door has one. This isn't the starship ''Enterprise'', after all. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 16:26, 11 July 2011 (EDT)

:::I wasn't sure; that's why I wrote instead of deleting or changing. However, I went back and took a closer look. When Baltar first arrives at his new home (10:45), they knock to gain entry and the door is unlocked from the inside. You see a wheel for bolting/unbolting the door on the outside and on the inside. Around 14:30, you hear the door close and the bolt turn when Paula and Jeanne leave, and no other such sounds from then until Tracey "makes her move" on Baltar and agrees that the door is locked. It seems to me that whatever means they used to secure it, the door could be locked & unlocked from either side, and was clearly locked from the outside until the time Jeanne returned.

Just a few concluding remarks I don't blame you for what you did, where I in your position I would have done the same thing. The reason I didn't respond to Serenity's first post was because until yesterday I had been unable to figure out how. As far as fear of retribution, I've never really been involved with a wiki before so I wasn't really sure what to expect and was kind of intimidated. I appreciate you're addressing my issues. Not only did it help me understand why things were happening the way they were, but it also made me feel like my input was welcome and that was all I was asking for. I am anxious to see any clarification you can offer in the weeks ahead because I find this a rather fascinating topic.

Thanks again for the clarification. {{unsigned|Grandmaester314}}

Hi, I just checked all feature about BW and I didn't see the Dynamic Page List feature. Do you plan one day to install it because it's very useful?--[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 20:32, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

=== Examples ===

Here are some examples I made for the Stargate Wiki FR:

* To see minor characters:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:LigneMineurs Automatic generation of a line with five stamps] using DPL with entry of the series, the season, and the first article sorted.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un/Page_1 Automatic generation of minor characters for the first page] with automatic sort by last name
**[http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un Automatic creation of minor character stamps page links] with automatic image update and automatic update of the first and the last character name of this page.
* To see objects:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Ligne Automatic generation of a line]. All you juste have to do is to put the correct category.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Armes Autogeneration of a page] with the famous lines.
* To resume objects in a bottom navigation bar:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Divers Nav bar] automaticaly updated (put the right category)

All you have to do with this kind or templates is to put the right category and DPL (with a purge) will do the rest. The main purpose of DPL is to avoid editing when the database can do the stuff for you. You don't have to edit an article or a template to update with new article of the same category. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 08:28, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

== What about RFA and RFB for French BW ? ==

Hi Joe,

I'm on the verge to edit the policy for the french version of [[BW:RFA|Request for Admninship]] and [[BW:RFB|Request for Bureaucratship]]. I need your help for this two policies.
# Do I just translate the English version with the same vote system than the main site?
# Do I have to do it in another way?
# Is the principle of request the same than the main site?
Thanks for answering.--[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 11:25, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

: If you have any suggestions as to improve the policies in question, then that would work well. Until the French wiki has more contributors, I don't think the RFA and RFB are really going to work all that well, and so administrators are promoted on a case-by-case basis as determined by you, me, and Shane. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 13:10, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

:: Until I design or translate all the templates needed and the main page, I think there will not be a lot of contributors. The main problem is the lack of French and French-speaking people who speak English fluently. French people are not very confortable with English, so it's very difficult for them to contribute unless they have seen the show and are fans. With your agreement, I will just create one page for RFA and RFB with the statement you said above (Shane, you and me). FYI, all the episodes of the [[Re-Imagined Series]] have been aired in France, and have been released in DVD format (I just saw the Season 4 Part 2 Set yesterday in a supermarket) . --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:22, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

== Advertising and problem on media repository ==

Hi Joe and Happy New Year, 
As I already said to Shan, I can see that you succeed to bring back the wiki. Congratulations. I have two point to ask.
# I made a donation for the wiki to avoid advertising but I still have them on the screen, why? Thank you for your answer.
# On the media repository, I tried to upload an image. It is actually somewhere in the directory but the sofware is unable to create a thumbnail. It says that it cannot find the "convert" file on the server. So for now, it's impossible to add new images on the media repository.
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 15:48, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

: Happy New Year to you too! :D
: Anyway, I went ahead and upgraded your account to sponsor status, so you shouldn't see the ads. If you do, try logging in and out again. If that doesn't work, a hard refresh should clear the cache. As for the convert issue, I'll have Shane look into it. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 15:55, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

== InterBot and BS Pegasus ==

Hi Joe. 
1. It seems that [[:fr:User:InterBot|InterBot]] doesn't work because the interwiki link I made on the pages I created aren't duplicated on the other wikis. 
2. I don't have access to [http://www.battlestarpegasus.com/ BS Pegasus] either. It says it's forbidden. Is there any problem since the server transfer or something? 
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 21:41, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
:Hi, Still doesn't work for both points. Do you have any answer for that please? Thanks. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:23, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

: Sorry, I've been pretty busy. (Barely have had time to really work on the wiki, other than to greet the newcomers.) To answer your questions:
: 1. Shane needs to reprogram the InterBot. He hasn't had time to do that as he's been working on projects for Best Buy.
: 2. The BS Pegasus site is down. No ETA on when that'll be back up as it isn't priority. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 01:35, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

== Calendar dates on auction items ==

Hi Joe,

I expanded the [[Colonial calendar#Different Dating Methods]] section with information from a couple of auction items and noticed in the process that you wrote at least some of the blog entries at battlestarprops.com. Do you recall seeing any calendar items I haven't mentioned yet, and if so, could you point me to their pictures? It would also be nice to see a higher resolution scan of Socrata's medal of valor document, if one is available.

Regards,

-- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 19:55, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

: I honestly never really paid all that much attention to the dating thing, since it was all made up anyway. (''Star Trek'''s "stardate" system is a very good example of this, actually. It isn't until they did TNG that they really put thought into it.) There is very little consistency behind the dating on any of the paperwork; in television production, much of it is thrown together—some of it even at the very last minute—even taking into account the quality of BSG's paperwork being higher than other genre television series. It isn't until ''Caprica'' that they really tried to address the issue of the Colonial dating method, because it's simply not natural not to have characters ''not'' say "Hey Lacy, meet me for lunch on Saturday."

: As for photos of the stuff, the [http://archive.propworx.com Propworx archive] has photos of everything that's been auctioned through Propworx. I also know of a few fans who have won many paperwork documents from the BSG auctions (both live and via eBay) that have taken the time to scan them, but most of their work is on private boards and some prop replication communities. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 02:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. The scans on that site have a much higher resolution and I already found a couple of items with supposed dates. I would like to document them in the article primarily to establish that there was no real system in the re-imagined series as opposed to ''Caprica''. Such random alphanumerics also suggest to the reader that the dates in Adama's dossier need not be correct necessarily (e.g. the year 20000+). -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 18:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

== "pos" extended parser function ==

Hi Joe, I would like to ask if it is possible to add the "'''''pos'''''" Parser Function into the wiki, this will allow to do some research more easily (for example to do an action on pages with a certain text and not on the others). Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 12:57, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

: Do you have a link so I can check this out? I take it this is an extension to MW. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 13:15, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

== Jupiter-class battlestar issue ==

I have a problem with your edit of my edit on the Jupiter class battlestar Galactica. The book I refered to is canon since it was written by the science advisor to BSG and sactioned by SyFy and Ron Moore. If yoiu prefer your wiki not to contain official information then that is fine and I will not bother to add any other information to your site. I will rely solely on official material such as this book. Cancel my membersip please.
Good Bye. {{unsigned|Lonewriter}}

: Please refer to [[BW:CITE#Acceptable_Sources|Acceptable Sources]], which list the sources of what makes something canon. Just because there is an error in a book sanctioned by Syfy Channel, does not mean it is automatically canon. As I've only started reading the book, I've already noticed errors (mostly with spelling, such as Cally's name), that raises a few doubts in my mind when it comes to how thoroughly the book was copyedited.

: As I believe I had explained, the episode that the writers of the book refer to ("Pegasus") does ''not'' make mention of ''Galactica''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> class. ''At all.'' So, they made a mistake, or improperly cited the source. (Now, if it came from the script for that episode, I can see that. We've used scripts as sources before.)

: Now, if Ron Moore or David Eick were to come out and say "well, they're right, ''Galactica'' is a ''Jupiter'' class" then we will certainly note that, and cite that it came from them. Furthermore, maybe I wasn't clear, but I'm not saying that we should throw out the reference at all, but '''it needs to be pointed out that the way the information is present is in ''direct contradiction to what viewers saw on screen.'''''

: Believe me, were this information aired in "Pegasus" fans would have eaten that up, just like they (we) ate up the whole ''Mercury'' class reference that Adama made before Cain boarded the ship. :)

: Now, as to your immature comment, it does suggest that you probably wouldn't be a good editor here, because you don't seem to understand how to critically analyze information, or the necessity of viewing all information with a critical eye. That's fine. There are people who simply don't have that ability. There's nothing wrong with that. Also, you don't have to use the site, at all. I hate to be disingenuous and brusque, but if you're going to use appeals to emotion instead of actually bothering to do the research (which I, and many, many fans have done over the past five-plus years) then you're welcome to leave and never look back.

: However, let me be particularly clear when I say this: what I have done is pointed out this error, which you've brought to our attention, so thank you for that. Now, if you want to act like a prima donna and storm off in a huff, then that's your call. You're more than welcome to stay, or you are more than welcome to leave. Ball is in your court. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 02:58, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

== William Adama edits ==

I seem to find the spoiler tag formatting (I edit on wikipedia but we have nothing similar there) so I'm just going to be as vague as I can be and hope you understand. While reading over the spoilered info on William Adama's page that you recently added I realized that you have a character connection slightly off. If you check my edit history, you'll see I made a similar change on a related page. Hope that's enough for you to see what I meant (since I can't edit the Old Man's page).

== Duram's files at Propworx ==

Hi Joe,

Have you preserved alternate photographs of Duram's files which are now on eBay? The available photo makes Clarice's file halfway legible, but I'm curious what's in Amanda's and other files. I'm not planning on buying them though, since I'm only interested in the information, not in provenance. Even so, thanks for participating in the auctions — the photos have provided so much useful information that would've normally disappeared with the shows. -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 22:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

: I'd have to ask Jarrod, since he's the one who oversees the Caprica auction stuff out in LA.

What does putting the ref in break? I don't see anything unusual except that the 33 has to be bracketed to be a link. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 22:47, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

: Issue is that the brackets are printed out, and they really shouldn't be. I guess I'll have to modify the infobox template to deal with that. Basically a separate field that is only for references, like "|seenref=". -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 00:42, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

== Affiliation ==

Hello would you like this wiki to affiliate with my independent wiki http://stargate-wiki.org/ ? [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 23:38, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

: Hi there, feel free to e-mail me directly at joe@frakmedia.net so we can talk about it more. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 23:44, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

Not sure if you got my email or not, anyway, would you prefer to join the SIWA Network (Scifi independent wiki alliance)? http://siwanetwork.webs.com Basically just lets more people interlink with these wikis and its always good to have more links to your site laying around. It costs nothing and we dont really ask for anything in return. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 06:35, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Thank you for the offer, but I will decline. I really see no benefit for this wiki and its contributors in being a part of the SIWA Network. In fact, I feel that our inclusion would only be beneficial for you, seeing as we have a wide exposure. We've run into loose fan organizations like SIWA before, and frankly they are not worth the bandwidth that it takes to pull up the webpage. Our experience is that such things are not professionally run and are basically glorified fly-by-night operations operated by unprofessional, doe-eyed fans with unrealistic expectations. Nothing personal against you, it is just our experience. And, as for traffic and links, we've found that being a part of a glorified "webring" has no return on investiment. A majority of new traffic has always, and without fail, come from two sources: 1) word-of-mouth (forums and social networks), and 2) search engines. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 10:25, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

I had 22 new visitors to my site because of SIWA. Your loss i guess. Also it really doesn't make it less offensive when you call me: unprofessional, doe-eyed fan with unrealistic expectations then say no offence. Even you should see that. Well if you change your mind, let me know. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 11:56, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: And how many of those 22 people will stick around and contribute in the long-haul? Since there are so many Stargate wikis out there, those results aren't surprising... and, don't get your hopes up, as they will be short lived. Traffic from web rings and "alliances" is short-lived, and with extremely poor to negligible long-term ROI. I've been running websites for the last 15 years, so I am well aware of what I'm taking about.

: Furthermore, I was not making a personal attack against you: I was making a general observation about such organizations. However, since you are keen to make it about yourself: given your behavior in the past towards another member of this website (and bringing problems from an outside wiki to this Wiki directly and without provocation from us), I find ''that'' unprofessional. End of subject. Thank you for the offer, and have a splendid day. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 12:16, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

Wow, take it overboard much. I was going to link certain articles like actors other work here etc but because of that attitude, you can forget it [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 12:21, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Your attitude and sour disposition are the problems here. After all, you were the one who [[User_talk:LIMAFOX76|brought outside problems from another website to this one]]. ''You'' initiated it here. ''You'' deliberately sought the user in question, tracked them to this website, and brought ''your'' problems to an open forum instead of taking it up with the user via e-mail. ''You'' involved us, and ''I'' put a stop to it. I have no ill will towards you personally, but your immature behavior here and your inability to properly deal with issues in a mature manner exemplifies why we are careful in associating with other organizations and websites.

: At any rate, I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors. Farewell. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 12:39, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

== Not sure this is a gaffe ==

[[He_That_Believeth_In_Me#Gaffes]] contains this final paragraph, which I think should be deleted:
:Tracey tells Baltar prior to their intercourse that the door to the group's hideout is locked and that only the two of them are in the room, but when Jeanne returns with Derrick, she is able to reenter even though both Tracey and Baltar are still asleep (presumably she said this to put Baltar more at ease).
Saying that a door is locked does not preclude the possibility of others entering. A locked door can be unlocked. Other doors on Galactica are locked with keypads (like the one rigged to blow up Romo Lampkin), and there is no reason to think Jeanne would not have the entry code. [[User:Dogger55|Dogger55]] 16:12, 11 July 2011 (EDT)

:: Many of Galactica's hatches are lockable only from one side, not both. Further, only small arms lockers and other sensitive areas have keypads. Not every door has one. This isn't the starship ''Enterprise'', after all. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 16:26, 11 July 2011 (EDT)

:::I wasn't sure; that's why I wrote instead of deleting or changing. However, I went back and took a closer look. When Baltar first arrives at his new home (10:45), they knock to gain entry and the door is unlocked from the inside. You see a wheel for bolting/unbolting the door on the outside and on the inside. Around 14:30, you hear the door close and the bolt turn when Paula and Jeanne leave, and no other such sounds from then until Tracey "makes her move" on Baltar and agrees that the door is locked. It seems to me that whatever means they used to secure it, the door could be locked & unlocked from either side, and was clearly locked from the outside until the time Jeanne returned.

== Military Ranks ==

Just a few concluding remarks I don't blame you for what you did, where I in your position I would have done the same thing. The reason I didn't respond to Serenity's first post was because until yesterday I had been unable to figure out how. As far as fear of retribution, I've never really been involved with a wiki before so I wasn't really sure what to expect and was kind of intimidated. I appreciate you're addressing my issues. Not only did it help me understand why things were happening the way they were, but it also made me feel like my input was welcome and that was all I was asking for. I am anxious to see any clarification you can offer in the weeks ahead because I find this a rather fascinating topic.

Thanks again for the clarification. {{unsigned|Grandmaester314}}

=== Examples ===

Here are some examples I made for the Stargate Wiki FR:

* To see minor characters:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:LigneMineurs Automatic generation of a line with five stamps] using DPL with entry of the series, the season, and the first article sorted.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un/Page_1 Automatic generation of minor characters for the first page] with automatic sort by last name
**[http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un Automatic creation of minor character stamps page links] with automatic image update and automatic update of the first and the last character name of this page.
* To see objects:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Ligne Automatic generation of a line]. All you juste have to do is to put the correct category.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Armes Autogeneration of a page] with the famous lines.
* To resume objects in a bottom navigation bar:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Divers Nav bar] automaticaly updated (put the right category)

All you have to do with this kind or templates is to put the right category and DPL (with a purge) will do the rest. The main purpose of DPL is to avoid editing when the database can do the stuff for you. You don't have to edit an article or a template to update with new article of the same category. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 08:28, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

== What about RFA and RFB for French BW ? ==

Hi Joe,

I'm on the verge to edit the policy for the french version of [[BW:RFA|Request for Admninship]] and [[BW:RFB|Request for Bureaucratship]]. I need your help for this two policies.
# Do I just translate the English version with the same vote system than the main site?
# Do I have to do it in another way?
# Is the principle of request the same than the main site?
Thanks for answering.--[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 11:25, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

: If you have any suggestions as to improve the policies in question, then that would work well. Until the French wiki has more contributors, I don't think the RFA and RFB are really going to work all that well, and so administrators are promoted on a case-by-case basis as determined by you, me, and Shane. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 13:10, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

:: Until I design or translate all the templates needed and the main page, I think there will not be a lot of contributors. The main problem is the lack of French and French-speaking people who speak English fluently. French people are not very confortable with English, so it's very difficult for them to contribute unless they have seen the show and are fans. With your agreement, I will just create one page for RFA and RFB with the statement you said above (Shane, you and me). FYI, all the episodes of the [[Re-Imagined Series]] have been aired in France, and have been released in DVD format (I just saw the Season 4 Part 2 Set yesterday in a supermarket) . --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:22, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi Joe and Happy New Year, 
As I already said to Shan, I can see that you succeed to bring back the wiki. Congratulations. I have two point to ask.
# I made a donation for the wiki to avoid advertising but I still have them on the screen, why? Thank you for your answer.
# On the media repository, I tried to upload an image. It is actually somewhere in the directory but the sofware is unable to create a thumbnail. It says that it cannot find the "convert" file on the server. So for now, it's impossible to add new images on the media repository.

== InterBot and BS Pegasus ==

Hi Joe. 
1. It seems that [[:fr:User:InterBot|InterBot]] doesn't work because the interwiki link I made on the pages I created aren't duplicated on the other wikis. 
2. I don't have access to [http://www.battlestarpegasus.com/ BS Pegasus] either. It says it's forbidden. Is there any problem since the server transfer or something? 
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 21:41, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
:Hi, Still doesn't work for both points. Do you have any answer for that please? Thanks. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:23, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

: Sorry, I've been pretty busy. (Barely have had time to really work on the wiki, other than to greet the newcomers.) To answer your questions:
: 1. Shane needs to reprogram the InterBot. He hasn't had time to do that as he's been working on projects for Best Buy.
: 2. The BS Pegasus site is down. No ETA on when that'll be back up as it isn't priority. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 01:35, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

== Calendar dates on auction items ==

Hi Joe,

I expanded the [[Colonial calendar#Different Dating Methods]] section with information from a couple of auction items and noticed in the process that you wrote at least some of the blog entries at battlestarprops.com. Do you recall seeing any calendar items I haven't mentioned yet, and if so, could you point me to their pictures? It would also be nice to see a higher resolution scan of Socrata's medal of valor document, if one is available.

Regards,

-- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 19:55, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

: I honestly never really paid all that much attention to the dating thing, since it was all made up anyway. (''Star Trek'''s "stardate" system is a very good example of this, actually. It isn't until they did TNG that they really put thought into it.) There is very little consistency behind the dating on any of the paperwork; in television production, much of it is thrown together—some of it even at the very last minute—even taking into account the quality of BSG's paperwork being higher than other genre television series. It isn't until ''Caprica'' that they really tried to address the issue of the Colonial dating method, because it's simply not natural not to have characters ''not'' say "Hey Lacy, meet me for lunch on Saturday."

: As for photos of the stuff, the [http://archive.propworx.com Propworx archive] has photos of everything that's been auctioned through Propworx. I also know of a few fans who have won many paperwork documents from the BSG auctions (both live and via eBay) that have taken the time to scan them, but most of their work is on private boards and some prop replication communities. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 02:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. The scans on that site have a much higher resolution and I already found a couple of items with supposed dates. I would like to document them in the article primarily to establish that there was no real system in the re-imagined series as opposed to ''Caprica''. Such random alphanumerics also suggest to the reader that the dates in Adama's dossier need not be correct necessarily (e.g. the year 20000+). -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 18:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

== "pos" extended parser function ==

Hi Joe, I would like to ask if it is possible to add the "'''''pos'''''" Parser Function into the wiki, this will allow to do some research more easily (for example to do an action on pages with a certain text and not on the others).

== Jupiter-class battlestar issue ==

I have a problem with your edit of my edit on the Jupiter class battlestar Galactica. The book I refered to is canon since it was written by the science advisor to BSG and sactioned by SyFy and Ron Moore. If yoiu prefer your wiki not to contain official information then that is fine and I will not bother to add any other information to your site. I will rely solely on official material such as this book. Cancel my membersip please.
Good Bye. {{unsigned|Lonewriter}}

: Please refer to [[BW:CITE#Acceptable_Sources|Acceptable Sources]], which list the sources of what makes something canon. Just because there is an error in a book sanctioned by Syfy Channel, does not mean it is automatically canon. As I've only started reading the book, I've already noticed errors (mostly with spelling, such as Cally's name), that raises a few doubts in my mind when it comes to how thoroughly the book was copyedited.

: As I believe I had explained, the episode that the writers of the book refer to ("Pegasus") does ''not'' make mention of ''Galactica''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> class. ''At all.'' So, they made a mistake, or improperly cited the source. (Now, if it came from the script for that episode, I can see that. We've used scripts as sources before.)

: Now, if Ron Moore or David Eick were to come out and say "well, they're right, ''Galactica'' is a ''Jupiter'' class" then we will certainly note that, and cite that it came from them. Furthermore, maybe I wasn't clear, but I'm not saying that we should throw out the reference at all, but '''it needs to be pointed out that the way the information is present is in ''direct contradiction to what viewers saw on screen.'''''

: Believe me, were this information aired in "Pegasus" fans would have eaten that up, just like they (we) ate up the whole ''Mercury'' class reference that Adama made before Cain boarded the ship. :)

: Now, as to your immature comment, it does suggest that you probably wouldn't be a good editor here, because you don't seem to understand how to critically analyze information, or the necessity of viewing all information with a critical eye. That's fine. There are people who simply don't have that ability. There's nothing wrong with that. Also, you don't have to use the site, at all. I hate to be disingenuous and brusque, but if you're going to use appeals to emotion instead of actually bothering to do the research (which I, and many, many fans have done over the past five-plus years) then you're welcome to leave and never look back.

: However, let me be particularly clear when I say this: what I have done is pointed out this error, which you've brought to our attention, so thank you for that. Now, if you want to act like a prima donna and storm off in a huff, then that's your call. You're more than welcome to stay, or you are more than welcome to leave.

== William Adama edits ==

I seem to find the spoiler tag formatting (I edit on wikipedia but we have nothing similar there) so I'm just going to be as vague as I can be and hope you understand. While reading over the spoilered info on William Adama's page that you recently added I realized that you have a character connection slightly off. If you check my edit history, you'll see I made a similar change on a related page. Hope that's enough for you to see what I meant (since I can't edit the Old Man's page).

== Duram's files at Propworx ==

Hi Joe,

Have you preserved alternate photographs of Duram's files which are now on eBay? The available photo makes Clarice's file halfway legible, but I'm curious what's in Amanda's and other files. I'm not planning on buying them though, since I'm only interested in the information, not in provenance. Even so, thanks for participating in the auctions — the photos have provided so much useful information that would've normally disappeared with the shows. -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 22:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

: Issue is that the brackets are printed out, and they really shouldn't be. I guess I'll have to modify the infobox template to deal with that.

Not sure if you got my email or not, anyway, would you prefer to join the SIWA Network (Scifi independent wiki alliance)? http://siwanetwork.webs.com Basically just lets more people interlink with these wikis and its always good to have more links to your site laying around. It costs nothing and we dont really ask for anything in return. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 06:35, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Thank you for the offer, but I will decline. I really see no benefit for this wiki and its contributors in being a part of the SIWA Network. In fact, I feel that our inclusion would only be beneficial for you, seeing as we have a wide exposure. We've run into loose fan organizations like SIWA before, and frankly they are not worth the bandwidth that it takes to pull up the webpage. Our experience is that such things are not professionally run and are basically glorified fly-by-night operations operated by unprofessional, doe-eyed fans with unrealistic expectations. Nothing personal against you, it is just our experience. And, as for traffic and links, we've found that being a part of a glorified "webring" has no return on investiment. A majority of new traffic has always, and without fail, come from two sources: 1) word-of-mouth (forums and social networks), and 2) search engines. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 10:25, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

I had 22 new visitors to my site because of SIWA. Your loss i guess. Also it really doesn't make it less offensive when you call me: unprofessional, doe-eyed fan with unrealistic expectations then say no offence. Even you should see that. Well if you change your mind, let me know. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 11:56, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: And how many of those 22 people will stick around and contribute in the long-haul? Since there are so many Stargate wikis out there, those results aren't surprising... and, don't get your hopes up, as they will be short lived. Traffic from web rings and "alliances" is short-lived, and with extremely poor to negligible long-term ROI. I've been running websites for the last 15 years, so I am well aware of what I'm taking about.

: Furthermore, I was not making a personal attack against you: I was making a general observation about such organizations. However, since you are keen to make it about yourself: given your behavior in the past towards another member of this website (and bringing problems from an outside wiki to this Wiki directly and without provocation from us), I find ''that'' unprofessional.

: Your attitude and sour disposition are the problems here. After all, you were the one who [[User_talk:LIMAFOX76|brought outside problems from another website to this one]]. ''You'' initiated it here. ''You'' deliberately sought the user in question, tracked them to this website, and brought ''your'' problems to an open forum instead of taking it up with the user via e-mail. ''You'' involved us, and ''I'' put a stop to it. I have no ill will towards you personally, but your immature behavior here and your inability to properly deal with issues in a mature manner exemplifies why we are careful in associating with other organizations and websites.

== Not sure this is a gaffe ==

[[He_That_Believeth_In_Me#Gaffes]] contains this final paragraph, which I think should be deleted:
:Tracey tells Baltar prior to their intercourse that the door to the group's hideout is locked and that only the two of them are in the room, but when Jeanne returns with Derrick, she is able to reenter even though both Tracey and Baltar are still asleep (presumably she said this to put Baltar more at ease).
Saying that a door is locked does not preclude the possibility of others entering. A locked door can be unlocked. Other doors on Galactica are locked with keypads (like the one rigged to blow up Romo Lampkin), and there is no reason to think Jeanne would not have the entry code. [[User:Dogger55|Dogger55]] 16:12, 11 July 2011 (EDT)

:: Many of Galactica's hatches are lockable only from one side, not both. Further, only small arms lockers and other sensitive areas have keypads. Not every door has one.

:::I wasn't sure; that's why I wrote instead of deleting or changing. However, I went back and took a closer look. When Baltar first arrives at his new home (10:45), they knock to gain entry and the door is unlocked from the inside. You see a wheel for bolting/unbolting the door on the outside and on the inside. Around 14:30, you hear the door close and the bolt turn when Paula and Jeanne leave, and no other such sounds from then until Tracey "makes her move" on Baltar and agrees that the door is locked. It seems to me that whatever means they used to secure it, the door could be locked & unlocked from either side, and was clearly locked from the outside until the time Jeanne returned.

Escyos:

I am '''Escyos''' I run an independent [http://stargate-wiki.org/ Stargate Wiki] (which frankly is much better than the one on Wikia despite not having as much (yet)).

I am also a big BSG fan. I remember seeing the ad for the mini-series on tv here in Australia (the one with the "Spaceman" by "Babylon Zoo" on it) and it looked interesting, watched it and liked it. Australian tv is quite bad when it comes to showing good shows consistantly but I saw the whole first season before resorting to downloads to see the rest. I bought the DVDs and then one day I saw the original series DVD and bought it and then bought Galactica 1980.

I have now seen all of Caprica, it was good but it felt a little rushed. It also felt less sci-fi than it could have been and the whole religion/god thing is fairly boring.

==My BSG DVD's==
*Season 1
*Season 2
*Season 3
*Season 4 Part 1
*Razor
*The Plan
*BSG Original Series
*Galactica 1980

==Currently==
*Just finished watching my newer BSG DVD's but chances are most of those details are already on this wiki. I am re-watching my old BSG DVD's so will add a few things here and there when I see them.

== Military Ranks ==

Just a few concluding remarks I don't blame you for what you did, where I in your position I would have done the same thing. The reason I didn't respond to Serenity's first post was because until yesterday I had been unable to figure out how. As far as fear of retribution, I've never really been involved with a wiki before so I wasn't really sure what to expect and was kind of intimidated. I appreciate you're addressing my issues. Not only did it help me understand why things were happening the way they were, but it also made me feel like my input was welcome and that was all I was asking for. I am anxious to see any clarification you can offer in the weeks ahead because I find this a rather fascinating topic.

Thanks again for the clarification. {{unsigned|Grandmaester314}}

=== Examples ===

Here are some examples I made for the Stargate Wiki FR:

* To see minor characters:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:LigneMineurs Automatic generation of a line with five stamps] using DPL with entry of the series, the season, and the first article sorted.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un/Page_1 Automatic generation of minor characters for the first page] with automatic sort by last name
**[http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un Automatic creation of minor character stamps page links] with automatic image update and automatic update of the first and the last character name of this page.
* To see objects:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Ligne Automatic generation of a line]. All you juste have to do is to put the correct category.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Armes Autogeneration of a page] with the famous lines.
* To resume objects in a bottom navigation bar:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Divers Nav bar] automaticaly updated (put the right category)

All you have to do with this kind or templates is to put the right category and DPL (with a purge) will do the rest. The main purpose of DPL is to avoid editing when the database can do the stuff for you. You don't have to edit an article or a template to update with new article of the same category. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 08:28, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

== What about RFA and RFB for French BW ? ==

Hi Joe,

I'm on the verge to edit the policy for the french version of [[BW:RFA|Request for Admninship]] and [[BW:RFB|Request for Bureaucratship]]. I need your help for this two policies.
# Do I just translate the English version with the same vote system than the main site?
# Do I have to do it in another way?
# Is the principle of request the same than the main site?
Thanks for answering.--[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 11:25, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

: If you have any suggestions as to improve the policies in question, then that would work well. Until the French wiki has more contributors, I don't think the RFA and RFB are really going to work all that well, and so administrators are promoted on a case-by-case basis as determined by you, me, and Shane. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 13:10, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

:: Until I design or translate all the templates needed and the main page, I think there will not be a lot of contributors. The main problem is the lack of French and French-speaking people who speak English fluently. French people are not very confortable with English, so it's very difficult for them to contribute unless they have seen the show and are fans. With your agreement, I will just create one page for RFA and RFB with the statement you said above (Shane, you and me). FYI, all the episodes of the [[Re-Imagined Series]] have been aired in France, and have been released in DVD format (I just saw the Season 4 Part 2 Set yesterday in a supermarket) . --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:22, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

== Advertising and problem on media repository ==

Hi Joe and Happy New Year, 
As I already said to Shan, I can see that you succeed to bring back the wiki. Congratulations. I have two point to ask.
# I made a donation for the wiki to avoid advertising but I still have them on the screen, why? Thank you for your answer.
# On the media repository, I tried to upload an image. It is actually somewhere in the directory but the sofware is unable to create a thumbnail. It says that it cannot find the "convert" file on the server. So for now, it's impossible to add new images on the media repository.
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 15:48, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

: Happy New Year to you too! :D
: Anyway, I went ahead and upgraded your account to sponsor status, so you shouldn't see the ads. If you do, try logging in and out again. If that doesn't work, a hard refresh should clear the cache. As for the convert issue, I'll have Shane look into it. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 15:55, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Hi Joe. 
1. It seems that [[:fr:User:InterBot|InterBot]] doesn't work because the interwiki link I made on the pages I created aren't duplicated on the other wikis. 
2. I don't have access to [http://www.battlestarpegasus.com/ BS Pegasus] either. It says it's forbidden. Is there any problem since the server transfer or something? 
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 21:41, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

: Sorry, I've been pretty busy. (Barely have had time to really work on the wiki, other than to greet the newcomers.) To answer your questions:
: 1. Shane needs to reprogram the InterBot. He hasn't had time to do that as he's been working on projects for Best Buy.

== Calendar dates on auction items ==

Hi Joe,

I expanded the [[Colonial calendar#Different Dating Methods]] section with information from a couple of auction items and noticed in the process that you wrote at least some of the blog entries at battlestarprops.com. Do you recall seeing any calendar items I haven't mentioned yet, and if so, could you point me to their pictures? It would also be nice to see a higher resolution scan of Socrata's medal of valor document, if one is available.

Regards,

-- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 19:55, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

: I honestly never really paid all that much attention to the dating thing, since it was all made up anyway. (''Star Trek'''s "stardate" system is a very good example of this, actually. It isn't until they did TNG that they really put thought into it.) There is very little consistency behind the dating on any of the paperwork; in television production, much of it is thrown together—some of it even at the very last minute—even taking into account the quality of BSG's paperwork being higher than other genre television series. It isn't until ''Caprica'' that they really tried to address the issue of the Colonial dating method, because it's simply not natural not to have characters ''not'' say "Hey Lacy, meet me for lunch on Saturday."

: As for photos of the stuff, the [http://archive.propworx.com Propworx archive] has photos of everything that's been auctioned through Propworx. I also know of a few fans who have won many paperwork documents from the BSG auctions (both live and via eBay) that have taken the time to scan them, but most of their work is on private boards and some prop replication communities. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 02:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. The scans on that site have a much higher resolution and I already found a couple of items with supposed dates. I would like to document them in the article primarily to establish that there was no real system in the re-imagined series as opposed to ''Caprica''. Such random alphanumerics also suggest to the reader that the dates in Adama's dossier need not be correct necessarily (e.g. the year 20000+). -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 18:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

== "pos" extended parser function ==

Hi Joe, I would like to ask if it is possible to add the "'''''pos'''''" Parser Function into the wiki, this will allow to do some research more easily (for example to do an action on pages with a certain text and not on the others). Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 12:57, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

== Jupiter-class battlestar issue ==

I have a problem with your edit of my edit on the Jupiter class battlestar Galactica. The book I refered to is canon since it was written by the science advisor to BSG and sactioned by SyFy and Ron Moore. If yoiu prefer your wiki not to contain official information then that is fine and I will not bother to add any other information to your site. I will rely solely on official material such as this book. Cancel my membersip please.
Good Bye. {{unsigned|Lonewriter}}

: Please refer to [[BW:CITE#Acceptable_Sources|Acceptable Sources]], which list the sources of what makes something canon. Just because there is an error in a book sanctioned by Syfy Channel, does not mean it is automatically canon. As I've only started reading the book, I've already noticed errors (mostly with spelling, such as Cally's name), that raises a few doubts in my mind when it comes to how thoroughly the book was copyedited.

: As I believe I had explained, the episode that the writers of the book refer to ("Pegasus") does ''not'' make mention of ''Galactica''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> class. ''At all.'' So, they made a mistake, or improperly cited the source. (Now, if it came from the script for that episode, I can see that. We've used scripts as sources before.)

: Now, if Ron Moore or David Eick were to come out and say "well, they're right, ''Galactica'' is a ''Jupiter'' class" then we will certainly note that, and cite that it came from them. Furthermore, maybe I wasn't clear, but I'm not saying that we should throw out the reference at all, but '''it needs to be pointed out that the way the information is present is in ''direct contradiction to what viewers saw on screen.'''''

: Believe me, were this information aired in "Pegasus" fans would have eaten that up, just like they (we) ate up the whole ''Mercury'' class reference that Adama made before Cain boarded the ship. :)

: Now, as to your immature comment, it does suggest that you probably wouldn't be a good editor here, because you don't seem to understand how to critically analyze information, or the necessity of viewing all information with a critical eye. That's fine. There are people who simply don't have that ability. There's nothing wrong with that. Also, you don't have to use the site, at all. I hate to be disingenuous and brusque, but if you're going to use appeals to emotion instead of actually bothering to do the research (which I, and many, many fans have done over the past five-plus years) then you're welcome to leave and never look back.

: However, let me be particularly clear when I say this: what I have done is pointed out this error, which you've brought to our attention, so thank you for that. Now, if you want to act like a prima donna and storm off in a huff, then that's your call. You're more than welcome to stay, or you are more than welcome to leave. Ball is in your court. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 02:58, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

== William Adama edits ==

I seem to find the spoiler tag formatting (I edit on wikipedia but we have nothing similar there) so I'm just going to be as vague as I can be and hope you understand. While reading over the spoilered info on William Adama's page that you recently added I realized that you have a character connection slightly off. If you check my edit history, you'll see I made a similar change on a related page. Hope that's enough for you to see what I meant (since I can't edit the Old Man's page).

== Duram's files at Propworx ==

Hi Joe,

Have you preserved alternate photographs of Duram's files which are now on eBay? The available photo makes Clarice's file halfway legible, but I'm curious what's in Amanda's and other files. I'm not planning on buying them though, since I'm only interested in the information, not in provenance. Even so, thanks for participating in the auctions — the photos have provided so much useful information that would've normally disappeared with the shows. -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 22:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

: I'd have to ask Jarrod, since he's the one who oversees the Caprica auction stuff out in LA. (I'm not in LA, so I don't have easy access to this stuff myself.) -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 23:00, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

== Reference in Template ==

What does putting the ref in break? I don't see anything unusual except that the 33 has to be bracketed to be a link. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 22:47, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

: Issue is that the brackets are printed out, and they really shouldn't be. I guess I'll have to modify the infobox template to deal with that. Basically a separate field that is only for references, like "|seenref=". -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 00:42, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

== Affiliation ==

Hello would you like this wiki to affiliate with my independent wiki http://stargate-wiki.org/ ? [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 23:38, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

: Hi there, feel free to e-mail me directly at joe@frakmedia.net so we can talk about it more. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 23:44, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

Not sure if you got my email or not, anyway, would you prefer to join the SIWA Network (Scifi independent wiki alliance)? http://siwanetwork.webs.com Basically just lets more people interlink with these wikis and its always good to have more links to your site laying around. It costs nothing and we dont really ask for anything in return. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 06:35, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Thank you for the offer, but I will decline. I really see no benefit for this wiki and its contributors in being a part of the SIWA Network. In fact, I feel that our inclusion would only be beneficial for you, seeing as we have a wide exposure. We've run into loose fan organizations like SIWA before, and frankly they are not worth the bandwidth that it takes to pull up the webpage. Our experience is that such things are not professionally run and are basically glorified fly-by-night operations operated by unprofessional, doe-eyed fans with unrealistic expectations. Nothing personal against you, it is just our experience. And, as for traffic and links, we've found that being a part of a glorified "webring" has no return on investiment. A majority of new traffic has always, and without fail, come from two sources: 1) word-of-mouth (forums and social networks), and 2) search engines. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 10:25, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

I had 22 new visitors to my site because of SIWA. Your loss i guess. Also it really doesn't make it less offensive when you call me: unprofessional, doe-eyed fan with unrealistic expectations then say no offence. Even you should see that. Well if you change your mind, let me know. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 11:56, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: And how many of those 22 people will stick around and contribute in the long-haul? Since there are so many Stargate wikis out there, those results aren't surprising... and, don't get your hopes up, as they will be short lived. Traffic from web rings and "alliances" is short-lived, and with extremely poor to negligible long-term ROI. I've been running websites for the last 15 years, so I am well aware of what I'm taking about.

: Furthermore, I was not making a personal attack against you: I was making a general observation about such organizations. However, since you are keen to make it about yourself: given your behavior in the past towards another member of this website (and bringing problems from an outside wiki to this Wiki directly and without provocation from us), I find ''that'' unprofessional. End of subject. Thank you for the offer, and have a splendid day. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 12:16, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

Wow, take it overboard much. I was going to link certain articles like actors other work here etc but because of that attitude, you can forget it [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 12:21, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Your attitude and sour disposition are the problems here. After all, you were the one who [[User_talk:LIMAFOX76|brought outside problems from another website to this one]]. ''You'' initiated it here. ''You'' deliberately sought the user in question, tracked them to this website, and brought ''your'' problems to an open forum instead of taking it up with the user via e-mail. ''You'' involved us, and ''I'' put a stop to it. I have no ill will towards you personally, but your immature behavior here and your inability to properly deal with issues in a mature manner exemplifies why we are careful in associating with other organizations and websites.

: At any rate, I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors. Farewell. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 12:39, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

== Not sure this is a gaffe ==

[[He_That_Believeth_In_Me#Gaffes]] contains this final paragraph, which I think should be deleted:
:Tracey tells Baltar prior to their intercourse that the door to the group's hideout is locked and that only the two of them are in the room, but when Jeanne returns with Derrick, she is able to reenter even though both Tracey and Baltar are still asleep (presumably she said this to put Baltar more at ease).
Saying that a door is locked does not preclude the possibility of others entering. A locked door can be unlocked. Other doors on Galactica are locked with keypads (like the one rigged to blow up Romo Lampkin), and there is no reason to think Jeanne would not have the entry code. [[User:Dogger55|Dogger55]] 16:12, 11 July 2011 (EDT)

:: Many of Galactica's hatches are lockable only from one side, not both. Further, only small arms lockers and other sensitive areas have keypads. Not every door has one. This isn't the starship ''Enterprise'', after all. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 16:26, 11 July 2011 (EDT)

:::I wasn't sure; that's why I wrote instead of deleting or changing. However, I went back and took a closer look. When Baltar first arrives at his new home (10:45), they knock to gain entry and the door is unlocked from the inside. You see a wheel for bolting/unbolting the door on the outside and on the inside. Around 14:30, you hear the door close and the bolt turn when Paula and Jeanne leave, and no other such sounds from then until Tracey "makes her move" on Baltar and agrees that the door is locked. It seems to me that whatever means they used to secure it, the door could be locked & unlocked from either side, and was clearly locked from the outside until the time Jeanne returned.

Escyos:

I am '''Escyos''' I run an independent [http://stargate-wiki.org/ Stargate Wiki] (which frankly is much better than the one on Wikia despite not having as much (yet)).

I am also a big BSG fan. I remember seeing the ad for the mini-series on tv here in Australia (the one with the "Spaceman" by "Babylon Zoo" on it) and it looked interesting, watched it and liked it. Australian tv is quite bad when it comes to showing good shows consistantly but I saw the whole first season before resorting to downloads to see the rest. I bought the DVDs and then one day I saw the original series DVD and bought it and then bought Galactica 1980.

I have now seen all of Caprica, it was good but it felt a little rushed.

==My BSG DVD's==
*Season 1
*Season 2
*Season 3
*Season 4 Part 1
*Razor
*The Plan
*BSG Original Series
*Galactica 1980

==Currently==
*Just finished watching my newer BSG DVD's but chances are most of those details are already on this wiki. I am re-watching my old BSG DVD's so will add a few things here and there when I see them.

== Military Ranks ==

Just a few concluding remarks I don't blame you for what you did, where I in your position I would have done the same thing. The reason I didn't respond to Serenity's first post was because until yesterday I had been unable to figure out how. As far as fear of retribution, I've never really been involved with a wiki before so I wasn't really sure what to expect and was kind of intimidated. I appreciate you're addressing my issues. Not only did it help me understand why things were happening the way they were, but it also made me feel like my input was welcome and that was all I was asking for. I am anxious to see any clarification you can offer in the weeks ahead because I find this a rather fascinating topic.

Thanks again for the clarification. {{unsigned|Grandmaester314}}

=== Examples ===

Here are some examples I made for the Stargate Wiki FR:

* To see minor characters:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:LigneMineurs Automatic generation of a line with five stamps] using DPL with entry of the series, the season, and the first article sorted.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un/Page_1 Automatic generation of minor characters for the first page] with automatic sort by last name
**[http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un Automatic creation of minor character stamps page links] with automatic image update and automatic update of the first and the last character name of this page.
* To see objects:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Ligne Automatic generation of a line]. All you juste have to do is to put the correct category.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Armes Autogeneration of a page] with the famous lines.
* To resume objects in a bottom navigation bar:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Divers Nav bar] automaticaly updated (put the right category)

All you have to do with this kind or templates is to put the right category and DPL (with a purge) will do the rest. The main purpose of DPL is to avoid editing when the database can do the stuff for you. You don't have to edit an article or a template to update with new article of the same category. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 08:28, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

== What about RFA and RFB for French BW ? ==

Hi Joe,

I'm on the verge to edit the policy for the french version of [[BW:RFA|Request for Admninship]] and [[BW:RFB|Request for Bureaucratship]]. I need your help for this two policies.
# Do I just translate the English version with the same vote system than the main site?
# Do I have to do it in another way?
# Is the principle of request the same than the main site?
Thanks for answering.--[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 11:25, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

: If you have any suggestions as to improve the policies in question, then that would work well. Until the French wiki has more contributors, I don't think the RFA and RFB are really going to work all that well, and so administrators are promoted on a case-by-case basis as determined by you, me, and Shane. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 13:10, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

:: Until I design or translate all the templates needed and the main page, I think there will not be a lot of contributors. The main problem is the lack of French and French-speaking people who speak English fluently. French people are not very confortable with English, so it's very difficult for them to contribute unless they have seen the show and are fans. With your agreement, I will just create one page for RFA and RFB with the statement you said above (Shane, you and me). FYI, all the episodes of the [[Re-Imagined Series]] have been aired in France, and have been released in DVD format (I just saw the Season 4 Part 2 Set yesterday in a supermarket) . --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:22, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

== Advertising and problem on media repository ==

Hi Joe and Happy New Year, 
As I already said to Shan, I can see that you succeed to bring back the wiki. Congratulations. I have two point to ask.
# I made a donation for the wiki to avoid advertising but I still have them on the screen, why? Thank you for your answer.
# On the media repository, I tried to upload an image. It is actually somewhere in the directory but the sofware is unable to create a thumbnail. It says that it cannot find the "convert" file on the server. So for now, it's impossible to add new images on the media repository.
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 15:48, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

: Happy New Year to you too! :D
: Anyway, I went ahead and upgraded your account to sponsor status, so you shouldn't see the ads. If you do, try logging in and out again. If that doesn't work, a hard refresh should clear the cache.

== InterBot and BS Pegasus ==

Hi Joe. 
1. It seems that [[:fr:User:InterBot|InterBot]] doesn't work because the interwiki link I made on the pages I created aren't duplicated on the other wikis. 
2. I don't have access to [http://www.battlestarpegasus.com/ BS Pegasus] either. It says it's forbidden. Is there any problem since the server transfer or something? 
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 21:41, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
:Hi, Still doesn't work for both points. Do you have any answer for that please? Thanks. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:23, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

: Sorry, I've been pretty busy. (Barely have had time to really work on the wiki, other than to greet the newcomers.) To answer your questions:
: 1. Shane needs to reprogram the InterBot. He hasn't had time to do that as he's been working on projects for Best Buy.
: 2. The BS Pegasus site is down. No ETA on when that'll be back up as it isn't priority. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 01:35, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

== Calendar dates on auction items ==

Hi Joe,

I expanded the [[Colonial calendar#Different Dating Methods]] section with information from a couple of auction items and noticed in the process that you wrote at least some of the blog entries at battlestarprops.com. Do you recall seeing any calendar items I haven't mentioned yet, and if so, could you point me to their pictures? It would also be nice to see a higher resolution scan of Socrata's medal of valor document, if one is available.

Regards,

-- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 19:55, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

: I honestly never really paid all that much attention to the dating thing, since it was all made up anyway. (''Star Trek'''s "stardate" system is a very good example of this, actually. It isn't until they did TNG that they really put thought into it.) There is very little consistency behind the dating on any of the paperwork; in television production, much of it is thrown together—some of it even at the very last minute—even taking into account the quality of BSG's paperwork being higher than other genre television series. It isn't until ''Caprica'' that they really tried to address the issue of the Colonial dating method, because it's simply not natural not to have characters ''not'' say "Hey Lacy, meet me for lunch on Saturday."

: As for photos of the stuff, the [http://archive.propworx.com Propworx archive] has photos of everything that's been auctioned through Propworx. I also know of a few fans who have won many paperwork documents from the BSG auctions (both live and via eBay) that have taken the time to scan them, but most of their work is on private boards and some prop replication communities. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 02:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. The scans on that site have a much higher resolution and I already found a couple of items with supposed dates. I would like to document them in the article primarily to establish that there was no real system in the re-imagined series as opposed to ''Caprica''. Such random alphanumerics also suggest to the reader that the dates in Adama's dossier need not be correct necessarily (e.g. the year 20000+). -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 18:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

== "pos" extended parser function ==

Hi Joe, I would like to ask if it is possible to add the "'''''pos'''''" Parser Function into the wiki, this will allow to do some research more easily (for example to do an action on pages with a certain text and not on the others).

== Jupiter-class battlestar issue ==

I have a problem with your edit of my edit on the Jupiter class battlestar Galactica. The book I refered to is canon since it was written by the science advisor to BSG and sactioned by SyFy and Ron Moore. If yoiu prefer your wiki not to contain official information then that is fine and I will not bother to add any other information to your site. I will rely solely on official material such as this book. Cancel my membersip please.
Good Bye. {{unsigned|Lonewriter}}

: Please refer to [[BW:CITE#Acceptable_Sources|Acceptable Sources]], which list the sources of what makes something canon. Just because there is an error in a book sanctioned by Syfy Channel, does not mean it is automatically canon. As I've only started reading the book, I've already noticed errors (mostly with spelling, such as Cally's name), that raises a few doubts in my mind when it comes to how thoroughly the book was copyedited.

: As I believe I had explained, the episode that the writers of the book refer to ("Pegasus") does ''not'' make mention of ''Galactica''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> class. ''At all.'' So, they made a mistake, or improperly cited the source. (Now, if it came from the script for that episode, I can see that. We've used scripts as sources before.)

: Now, if Ron Moore or David Eick were to come out and say "well, they're right, ''Galactica'' is a ''Jupiter'' class" then we will certainly note that, and cite that it came from them. Furthermore, maybe I wasn't clear, but I'm not saying that we should throw out the reference at all, but '''it needs to be pointed out that the way the information is present is in ''direct contradiction to what viewers saw on screen.'''''

: Believe me, were this information aired in "Pegasus" fans would have eaten that up, just like they (we) ate up the whole ''Mercury'' class reference that Adama made before Cain boarded the ship. :)

: Now, as to your immature comment, it does suggest that you probably wouldn't be a good editor here, because you don't seem to understand how to critically analyze information, or the necessity of viewing all information with a critical eye. That's fine. There are people who simply don't have that ability. There's nothing wrong with that. Also, you don't have to use the site, at all. I hate to be disingenuous and brusque, but if you're going to use appeals to emotion instead of actually bothering to do the research (which I, and many, many fans have done over the past five-plus years) then you're welcome to leave and never look back.

: However, let me be particularly clear when I say this: what I have done is pointed out this error, which you've brought to our attention, so thank you for that. Now, if you want to act like a prima donna and storm off in a huff, then that's your call. You're more than welcome to stay, or you are more than welcome to leave.

== William Adama edits ==

I seem to find the spoiler tag formatting (I edit on wikipedia but we have nothing similar there) so I'm just going to be as vague as I can be and hope you understand. While reading over the spoilered info on William Adama's page that you recently added I realized that you have a character connection slightly off. If you check my edit history, you'll see I made a similar change on a related page. Hope that's enough for you to see what I meant (since I can't edit the Old Man's page).

Hi Joe,

Have you preserved alternate photographs of Duram's files which are now on eBay? The available photo makes Clarice's file halfway legible, but I'm curious what's in Amanda's and other files. I'm not planning on buying them though, since I'm only interested in the information, not in provenance. Even so, thanks for participating in the auctions — the photos have provided so much useful information that would've normally disappeared with the shows. -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 22:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

: Issue is that the brackets are printed out, and they really shouldn't be. I guess I'll have to modify the infobox template to deal with that.

Not sure if you got my email or not, anyway, would you prefer to join the SIWA Network (Scifi independent wiki alliance)? http://siwanetwork.webs.com Basically just lets more people interlink with these wikis and its always good to have more links to your site laying around. It costs nothing and we dont really ask for anything in return. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 06:35, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Thank you for the offer, but I will decline. I really see no benefit for this wiki and its contributors in being a part of the SIWA Network. In fact, I feel that our inclusion would only be beneficial for you, seeing as we have a wide exposure. We've run into loose fan organizations like SIWA before, and frankly they are not worth the bandwidth that it takes to pull up the webpage. Our experience is that such things are not professionally run and are basically glorified fly-by-night operations operated by unprofessional, doe-eyed fans with unrealistic expectations. Nothing personal against you, it is just our experience. And, as for traffic and links, we've found that being a part of a glorified "webring" has no return on investiment. A majority of new traffic has always, and without fail, come from two sources: 1) word-of-mouth (forums and social networks), and 2) search engines. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 10:25, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

I had 22 new visitors to my site because of SIWA. Your loss i guess. Also it really doesn't make it less offensive when you call me: unprofessional, doe-eyed fan with unrealistic expectations then say no offence. Even you should see that. Well if you change your mind, let me know. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 11:56, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: And how many of those 22 people will stick around and contribute in the long-haul? Since there are so many Stargate wikis out there, those results aren't surprising... and, don't get your hopes up, as they will be short lived. Traffic from web rings and "alliances" is short-lived, and with extremely poor to negligible long-term ROI. I've been running websites for the last 15 years, so I am well aware of what I'm taking about.

: Furthermore, I was not making a personal attack against you: I was making a general observation about such organizations. However, since you are keen to make it about yourself: given your behavior in the past towards another member of this website (and bringing problems from an outside wiki to this Wiki directly and without provocation from us), I find ''that'' unprofessional.

Thank you for the offer, and have a splendid day. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 12:16, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Your attitude and sour disposition are the problems here. After all, you were the one who [[User_talk:LIMAFOX76|brought outside problems from another website to this one]]. ''You'' initiated it here. ''You'' deliberately sought the user in question, tracked them to this website, and brought ''your'' problems to an open forum instead of taking it up with the user via e-mail. ''You'' involved us, and ''I'' put a stop to it. I have no ill will towards you personally, but your immature behavior here and your inability to properly deal with issues in a mature manner exemplifies why we are careful in associating with other organizations and websites.

== Not sure this is a gaffe ==

[[He_That_Believeth_In_Me#Gaffes]] contains this final paragraph, which I think should be deleted:
:Tracey tells Baltar prior to their intercourse that the door to the group's hideout is locked and that only the two of them are in the room, but when Jeanne returns with Derrick, she is able to reenter even though both Tracey and Baltar are still asleep (presumably she said this to put Baltar more at ease).
Saying that a door is locked does not preclude the possibility of others entering. A locked door can be unlocked. Other doors on Galactica are locked with keypads (like the one rigged to blow up Romo Lampkin), and there is no reason to think Jeanne would not have the entry code. [[User:Dogger55|Dogger55]] 16:12, 11 July 2011 (EDT)

:: Many of Galactica's hatches are lockable only from one side, not both. Further, only small arms lockers and other sensitive areas have keypads. Not every door has one.

:::I wasn't sure; that's why I wrote instead of deleting or changing. However, I went back and took a closer look. When Baltar first arrives at his new home (10:45), they knock to gain entry and the door is unlocked from the inside. You see a wheel for bolting/unbolting the door on the outside and on the inside. Around 14:30, you hear the door close and the bolt turn when Paula and Jeanne leave, and no other such sounds from then until Tracey "makes her move" on Baltar and agrees that the door is locked. It seems to me that whatever means they used to secure it, the door could be locked & unlocked from either side, and was clearly locked from the outside until the time Jeanne returned.

Escyos: /* Stargate SG-1 */

{{Cast and Crew Lists series}}
The re-imagined ''[[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|Battlestar Galactica]]'' series is in many ways a stark contrast to the story-telling style and tone of ''[[wikipedia:Stargate SG-1|Stargate SG-1]]''. As outlined by [[Ronald D. Moore]]'s essay/mission statement on [[Naturalistic science fiction]], the series purposefully set out to revitalize the [[w:science-fiction|science-fiction]] genre away from the "planet of the week" type episodes and focus on technological novelty used in series like ''Stargate''. Some former ''Stargate SG-1'' cast or crew members crossed over to ''Battlestar Galactica'' when the series initially started, while over time others have also joined the series. This is a result of both shows being [[Filming locations (RDM)|filmed]] in [[w:Vancouver|Vancouver]], which has a relatively small pool of actors, particularly concering [[List of guest actors|guest stars and extras]].

Graystone Industries

[[Image:GraystoneIndustriesLogo.jpg|200px|right]]

'''Graystone Industries''' is a [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]]-based technology company created by [[Daniel Graystone]], who is its CEO. The company was created more than 60 years prior to the [[Fall of the Twelve Colonies]] and is responsible for the creation of the [[holoband]] technology, but was later known for the technology that changed the human race—the [[Cybernetic Life-Form Node]], or Cylon. Once the [[U-87]] prototype Cylon was successfully demonstrated under simulated combat conditions, the Caprican Ministry of Defense awarded the company with a contract for constructing one hundred thousand copies of the robot ([[CAP]]: [[Caprica pilot|''Caprica'' pilot]]).

[[Image:Graystone Industries.jpg|thumb|200px|left|The campus and buildings of Graystone Industries on [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]].]]Despite this, the company's stock nose-dived ([[CAP]]: "[[Rebirth]]"), a trend that would continue for an extended period of time. The financial future of the company was put into serious doubt when Daniel pledged on [[Backtalk_with_Baxter_Sarno|one of Caprica's most popular television programs]] to divert all profits from holoband sales and [[V-World]] space to funding anti-addiction efforts--affecting sixty percent of Graystone Industries' revenues ([[CAP]]: "[[Gravedancing]]"). In response, the board of directors began debate on removing him from the board, despite [[Cyrus Xander]]'s recognition that Daniel himself "is the brand." Daniel countered with a demonstration of the U-87's unique capabilities, arguing that sales for both military and civilian applications would sustain the company and affect society in a far more profound way than the holoband ([[CAP]]: "[[There Is Another Sky]]"). The demonstration saved Daniel's position as CEO ([[CAP]]: "[[Know Thy Enemy]]"), but continuing inability to produce copies of the U-87 and the [[Philomon|deadly escape]] of the U-87 culminated in the Ministry of Defense stripping the contract from the company and granting it to its chief competitor, [[Vergis Corporation]] ([[CAP]]: "[[End of Line]]").

Shortly after [[Tomas Vergis]] gains control of Graystone Industries, with the help of the criminal [[Ha'la'tha]] Daniel Graystone blackmails the board of directors into reinstating him as CEO. In despair and fear of the Ha'la'tha, Tomas Vergis kills himself. In return for their help, Graystone grants the Ha'la'tha partial ownership of the company and their followers are seen in influential roles throughout the company's buildings and projects for some time thereafter. Under Daniel Graystone's renewed leadership and especially following his thwarting of the Ha'la'tha's attempt to assasinate him and the [[STO]] terrorist attack, Graystone Industries rebounds tremendously and spearheads the integration of [[Cylons]] into Colonial society ([[CAP]]: "[[Apotheosis]]").

== Personnel ==

* [[Daniel Graystone]], CEO
* [[Cyrus Xander]], Graystone's assistant
* [[Priyah Magnus‎]], Public Relations Officer
* [[Drew Tanner]], U-87 technician
* [[Philomon]], U-87 technician

== Notes ==

* The Graystone Industries building and campus are inspired by [[w:Microsoft|Microsoft]] campus' own look and feel.<ref>{{cite_web|url=http://drexfiles.wordpress.com/2010/01/31/vancouver-as-caprica-city/|title=Drex Files: Caprica City|date=31 January 2010|accessdate=3 February 2010|last=Drexler|first=Doug|format=|language=}}</ref>

* The roof of the headquarters building features a design of two coaxial pentagons, very similar to the design of the roundels on both the wings of [[Raider (TOS)|Cylon raiders]] in the [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|original series]] and on the sides of the Caprican Cylon Marine VTOLs in "[[Apotheosis (episode)|Apotheosis]]".

Adriatic

{{Ship Data
| image=
| race= Colonial
| type= Civilian
| ftl= Yes
| status = Destroyed
| weapons= Short range ship-to-ship missiles
}}

The '''''Adriatic''''' is the first ship in the [[The Fleet (RDM)|Fleet]] other than ''[[Galactica]]'' and ''[[Pegasus (RDM)|Pegasus]]'' that is known to have weapons. ''Adriatic'' is armed with ship-to-ship missiles of a limited range.

This ship, or at least a majority of her crew, are part of [[Roslin Faction|Roslin's fleet]] that jumps to Kobol.

It is in weapon's range of [[Kara Thrace]] and her party's stolen Cylon [[Heavy Raider]] when it returns from [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]], though it does not fire ([[Home, Part I]]).

When [[Kendra Shaw]] tries to tune in to a [[Talk Wireless]] interview with Gaius Baltar, she picks up a transmission from the ''Adriatic'' to the ''[[Demetrius]]'' concerning cargo wasting in its holds ([[Razor]]).

The ''Adriatic'' is permanently lost along with its skeleton crew during its passage through a star cluster putting out immense amounts of stellar radiation after Lieutenant [[Brendan Costanza]] fails to locate and shepherd the ship to safety ([[The Passage]]).

==Notes==
*The ''Adriatic'' is one of the few ships in the Fleet whose name is based on modern instead of ancient Earth history, as it appears to be named after the [[Wikipedia:Adriatic Sea|Adriatic Sea]], an arm of the [[Wikipedia:Mediterranean Sea|Mediterranean Sea]] that separates Italy from the Balkan peninsula on [[Earth (RDM)|Earth]].
*In addition to the ocean, the [[Wikipedia:White Star Line|White Star Line]] named two of its vessels ''Adriatic'', one entering service in [[Wikipedia:SS Adriatic (1871)|1871]] and the other in [[Wikipedia:RMS Adriatic (1907)|1907]]

Escyos:

I am '''Escyos''' I run an independent [http://stargate-wiki.org/ Stargate Wiki] (which frankly is much better than the one on Wikia despite not having as much (yet)).

I am also a big BSG fan. I remember seeing the ad for the mini-series on tv here in Australia (the one with the "Spaceman" by "Babylon Zoo" on it) and it looked interesting, watched it and liked it. Australian tv is quite bad when it comes to showing good shows consistantly but I saw the whole first season before resorting to downloads to see the rest. I bought the DVDs and then one day I saw the original series DVD and bought it and then bought Galactica 1980.

I have seen the pilot for Caprica but no more as of yet, although I do plan to.

==My BSG DVD's==
*Season 1
*Season 2
*Season 3
*Season 4 Part 1
*Razor
*The Plan
*BSG Original Series
*Galactica 1980

==Currently==
*Just finished watching my newer BSG DVD's but chances are most of those details are already on this wiki. I am re-watching my old BSG DVD's so will add a few things here and there when I see them.

== Military Ranks ==

Just a few concluding remarks I don't blame you for what you did, where I in your position I would have done the same thing. The reason I didn't respond to Serenity's first post was because until yesterday I had been unable to figure out how. As far as fear of retribution, I've never really been involved with a wiki before so I wasn't really sure what to expect and was kind of intimidated. I appreciate you're addressing my issues. Not only did it help me understand why things were happening the way they were, but it also made me feel like my input was welcome and that was all I was asking for. I am anxious to see any clarification you can offer in the weeks ahead because I find this a rather fascinating topic.

Thanks again for the clarification. {{unsigned|Grandmaester314}}

=== Examples ===

Here are some examples I made for the Stargate Wiki FR:

* To see minor characters:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:LigneMineurs Automatic generation of a line with five stamps] using DPL with entry of the series, the season, and the first article sorted.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un/Page_1 Automatic generation of minor characters for the first page] with automatic sort by last name
**[http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un Automatic creation of minor character stamps page links] with automatic image update and automatic update of the first and the last character name of this page.
* To see objects:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Ligne Automatic generation of a line]. All you juste have to do is to put the correct category.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Armes Autogeneration of a page] with the famous lines.
* To resume objects in a bottom navigation bar:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Divers Nav bar] automaticaly updated (put the right category)

All you have to do with this kind or templates is to put the right category and DPL (with a purge) will do the rest. The main purpose of DPL is to avoid editing when the database can do the stuff for you. You don't have to edit an article or a template to update with new article of the same category. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 08:28, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

== What about RFA and RFB for French BW ? ==

Hi Joe,

I'm on the verge to edit the policy for the french version of [[BW:RFA|Request for Admninship]] and [[BW:RFB|Request for Bureaucratship]]. I need your help for this two policies.
# Do I just translate the English version with the same vote system than the main site?
# Do I have to do it in another way?
# Is the principle of request the same than the main site?
Thanks for answering.--[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 11:25, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

: If you have any suggestions as to improve the policies in question, then that would work well. Until the French wiki has more contributors, I don't think the RFA and RFB are really going to work all that well, and so administrators are promoted on a case-by-case basis as determined by you, me, and Shane. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 13:10, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

:: Until I design or translate all the templates needed and the main page, I think there will not be a lot of contributors. The main problem is the lack of French and French-speaking people who speak English fluently. French people are not very confortable with English, so it's very difficult for them to contribute unless they have seen the show and are fans. With your agreement, I will just create one page for RFA and RFB with the statement you said above (Shane, you and me). FYI, all the episodes of the [[Re-Imagined Series]] have been aired in France, and have been released in DVD format (I just saw the Season 4 Part 2 Set yesterday in a supermarket) . --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:22, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

== Advertising and problem on media repository ==

Hi Joe and Happy New Year, 
As I already said to Shan, I can see that you succeed to bring back the wiki. Congratulations. I have two point to ask.
# I made a donation for the wiki to avoid advertising but I still have them on the screen, why? Thank you for your answer.
# On the media repository, I tried to upload an image. It is actually somewhere in the directory but the sofware is unable to create a thumbnail. It says that it cannot find the "convert" file on the server. So for now, it's impossible to add new images on the media repository.
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 15:48, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

: Happy New Year to you too! :D
: Anyway, I went ahead and upgraded your account to sponsor status, so you shouldn't see the ads. If you do, try logging in and out again. If that doesn't work, a hard refresh should clear the cache. As for the convert issue, I'll have Shane look into it. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 15:55, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

1. It seems that [[:fr:User:InterBot|InterBot]] doesn't work because the interwiki link I made on the pages I created aren't duplicated on the other wikis. 
2. I don't have access to [http://www.battlestarpegasus.com/ BS Pegasus] either. It says it's forbidden. Is there any problem since the server transfer or something? 
Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 21:41, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

: 1. Shane needs to reprogram the InterBot. He hasn't had time to do that as he's been working on projects for Best Buy.

== Calendar dates on auction items ==

Hi Joe,

I expanded the [[Colonial calendar#Different Dating Methods]] section with information from a couple of auction items and noticed in the process that you wrote at least some of the blog entries at battlestarprops.com. Do you recall seeing any calendar items I haven't mentioned yet, and if so, could you point me to their pictures? It would also be nice to see a higher resolution scan of Socrata's medal of valor document, if one is available.

Regards,

-- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 19:55, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

: I honestly never really paid all that much attention to the dating thing, since it was all made up anyway. (''Star Trek'''s "stardate" system is a very good example of this, actually. It isn't until they did TNG that they really put thought into it.) There is very little consistency behind the dating on any of the paperwork; in television production, much of it is thrown together—some of it even at the very last minute—even taking into account the quality of BSG's paperwork being higher than other genre television series. It isn't until ''Caprica'' that they really tried to address the issue of the Colonial dating method, because it's simply not natural not to have characters ''not'' say "Hey Lacy, meet me for lunch on Saturday."

: As for photos of the stuff, the [http://archive.propworx.com Propworx archive] has photos of everything that's been auctioned through Propworx. I also know of a few fans who have won many paperwork documents from the BSG auctions (both live and via eBay) that have taken the time to scan them, but most of their work is on private boards and some prop replication communities. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 02:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. The scans on that site have a much higher resolution and I already found a couple of items with supposed dates. I would like to document them in the article primarily to establish that there was no real system in the re-imagined series as opposed to ''Caprica''. Such random alphanumerics also suggest to the reader that the dates in Adama's dossier need not be correct necessarily (e.g. the year 20000+). -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 18:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

== "pos" extended parser function ==

Hi Joe, I would like to ask if it is possible to add the "'''''pos'''''" Parser Function into the wiki, this will allow to do some research more easily (for example to do an action on pages with a certain text and not on the others). Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 12:57, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

== Jupiter-class battlestar issue ==

I have a problem with your edit of my edit on the Jupiter class battlestar Galactica. The book I refered to is canon since it was written by the science advisor to BSG and sactioned by SyFy and Ron Moore. If yoiu prefer your wiki not to contain official information then that is fine and I will not bother to add any other information to your site. I will rely solely on official material such as this book. Cancel my membersip please.
Good Bye. {{unsigned|Lonewriter}}

: Please refer to [[BW:CITE#Acceptable_Sources|Acceptable Sources]], which list the sources of what makes something canon. Just because there is an error in a book sanctioned by Syfy Channel, does not mean it is automatically canon. As I've only started reading the book, I've already noticed errors (mostly with spelling, such as Cally's name), that raises a few doubts in my mind when it comes to how thoroughly the book was copyedited.

: As I believe I had explained, the episode that the writers of the book refer to ("Pegasus") does ''not'' make mention of ''Galactica''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> class. ''At all.'' So, they made a mistake, or improperly cited the source. (Now, if it came from the script for that episode, I can see that. We've used scripts as sources before.)

: Now, if Ron Moore or David Eick were to come out and say "well, they're right, ''Galactica'' is a ''Jupiter'' class" then we will certainly note that, and cite that it came from them. Furthermore, maybe I wasn't clear, but I'm not saying that we should throw out the reference at all, but '''it needs to be pointed out that the way the information is present is in ''direct contradiction to what viewers saw on screen.'''''

: Believe me, were this information aired in "Pegasus" fans would have eaten that up, just like they (we) ate up the whole ''Mercury'' class reference that Adama made before Cain boarded the ship. :)

: Now, as to your immature comment, it does suggest that you probably wouldn't be a good editor here, because you don't seem to understand how to critically analyze information, or the necessity of viewing all information with a critical eye. That's fine. There are people who simply don't have that ability. There's nothing wrong with that. Also, you don't have to use the site, at all. I hate to be disingenuous and brusque, but if you're going to use appeals to emotion instead of actually bothering to do the research (which I, and many, many fans have done over the past five-plus years) then you're welcome to leave and never look back.

: However, let me be particularly clear when I say this: what I have done is pointed out this error, which you've brought to our attention, so thank you for that. Now, if you want to act like a prima donna and storm off in a huff, then that's your call. You're more than welcome to stay, or you are more than welcome to leave. Ball is in your court. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 02:58, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

== William Adama edits ==

I seem to find the spoiler tag formatting (I edit on wikipedia but we have nothing similar there) so I'm just going to be as vague as I can be and hope you understand. While reading over the spoilered info on William Adama's page that you recently added I realized that you have a character connection slightly off. If you check my edit history, you'll see I made a similar change on a related page. Hope that's enough for you to see what I meant (since I can't edit the Old Man's page). [[User:Millahnna|Millahnna]] 23:00, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

: Yes, I got what you meant! I'll make the correction now! Thanks! -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 02:41, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

== Duram's files at Propworx ==

Hi Joe,

Have you preserved alternate photographs of Duram's files which are now on eBay? The available photo makes Clarice's file halfway legible, but I'm curious what's in Amanda's and other files. I'm not planning on buying them though, since I'm only interested in the information, not in provenance. Even so, thanks for participating in the auctions — the photos have provided so much useful information that would've normally disappeared with the shows. -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 22:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

: I'd have to ask Jarrod, since he's the one who oversees the Caprica auction stuff out in LA. (I'm not in LA, so I don't have easy access to this stuff myself.) -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 23:00, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

== Reference in Template ==

What does putting the ref in break? I don't see anything unusual except that the 33 has to be bracketed to be a link. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 22:47, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

: Issue is that the brackets are printed out, and they really shouldn't be. I guess I'll have to modify the infobox template to deal with that. Basically a separate field that is only for references, like "|seenref=". -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 00:42, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

== Affiliation ==

Hello would you like this wiki to affiliate with my independent wiki http://stargate-wiki.org/ ? [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 23:38, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

: Hi there, feel free to e-mail me directly at joe@frakmedia.net so we can talk about it more. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 23:44, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

Not sure if you got my email or not, anyway, would you prefer to join the SIWA Network (Scifi independent wiki alliance)? http://siwanetwork.webs.com Basically just lets more people interlink with these wikis and its always good to have more links to your site laying around. It costs nothing and we dont really ask for anything in return. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 06:35, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Thank you for the offer, but I will decline. I really see no benefit for this wiki and its contributors in being a part of the SIWA Network. In fact, I feel that our inclusion would only be beneficial for you, seeing as we have a wide exposure. We've run into loose fan organizations like SIWA before, and frankly they are not worth the bandwidth that it takes to pull up the webpage. Our experience is that such things are not professionally run and are basically glorified fly-by-night operations operated by unprofessional, doe-eyed fans with unrealistic expectations. Nothing personal against you, it is just our experience. And, as for traffic and links, we've found that being a part of a glorified "webring" has no return on investiment. A majority of new traffic has always, and without fail, come from two sources: 1) word-of-mouth (forums and social networks), and 2) search engines. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 10:25, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

I had 22 new visitors to my site because of SIWA. Your loss i guess. Also it really doesn't make it less offensive when you call me: unprofessional, doe-eyed fan with unrealistic expectations then say no offence. Even you should see that. Well if you change your mind, let me know. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 11:56, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: And how many of those 22 people will stick around and contribute in the long-haul? Since there are so many Stargate wikis out there, those results aren't surprising... and, don't get your hopes up, as they will be short lived. Traffic from web rings and "alliances" is short-lived, and with extremely poor to negligible long-term ROI. I've been running websites for the last 15 years, so I am well aware of what I'm taking about.

: Furthermore, I was not making a personal attack against you: I was making a general observation about such organizations. However, since you are keen to make it about yourself: given your behavior in the past towards another member of this website (and bringing problems from an outside wiki to this Wiki directly and without provocation from us), I find ''that'' unprofessional. End of subject. Thank you for the offer, and have a splendid day. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 12:16, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

Wow, take it overboard much. I was going to link certain articles like actors other work here etc but because of that attitude, you can forget it [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 12:21, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Your attitude and sour disposition are the problems here. After all, you were the one who [[User_talk:LIMAFOX76|brought outside problems from another website to this one]]. ''You'' initiated it here. ''You'' deliberately sought the user in question, tracked them to this website, and brought ''your'' problems to an open forum instead of taking it up with the user via e-mail. ''You'' involved us, and ''I'' put a stop to it. I have no ill will towards you personally, but your immature behavior here and your inability to properly deal with issues in a mature manner exemplifies why we are careful in associating with other organizations and websites.

: At any rate, I wish you the best of luck in your endeavors. Farewell. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 12:39, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

::Wow alcohol and wiki editing should never be mixed, i don't remember writing most of that. Back to my original idea of affiliation, one of your bsg wiki 'friends' perhaps. Many BSG actors have been on Stargate. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 01:21, 30 June 2011 (EDT)

Talk:Cylon Centurion/Archive 1

2011-06-30T03:24:00Z

Escyos: /* Spinning chest balls */ new section

The stub calls the Warrior an "upgrade" of the old chrome toaster.
Given what we have seen of the inside of the BaseStar and Starbuck's Raider, isn't it likely that the Warrior is a product of the semi-organic line of Cylons?

The Warrior is, at best, the conceptual and functional sucessor to the old Centurion. A similar relationship might be found between the the M-4 Sherman tanke of World War II and the M-1A2 Abrams tank of today. Both machines do the same job, have many analogous features, but the only contributions the Sherman made to the development of the Abrams were its flaws.

Nick Kuzmik

: Actually, given that we never saw any organic matter come out of a shot Cylon Warrior, we can assume it is more robotic than organic. Obviously, this has not been stated overtly, so it is still conjecture. Therefore, it is possible that the Cylon Warrior is an "evolutionary" step to an organic-like Cylon (one with more fluid movement and flexibility) using non-organic materials. -- [[User:Joe.Beaudoin|Joe.Beaudoin]] (not logged in)

We need a better pic, like one from the miniseries or "33".--[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] 20:03, 24 February 2006 (EST)

== Deployed Greatly ==

What does "However, when Centurions are deployed greatly, they are deployed in huge numbers." mean? I'd delete it outright, but someone just added it, so I'd feel bad. --[[User:CalculatinAvatar|CalculatinAvatar]] 13:56, 1 April 2006 (CST)

:I have no such compunction. --[[User:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 20:09, 1 April 2006 (CST)

Bigger problem: what's with that ''entire'' paragraph? How do we *know* they weren't deployed in large numbers on the ground to mop up colonial units after the intial attacks? I always assumed they were, just off screen.--[[User:The Merovingian|The Merovingian]] ([[Special:Contributions/The Merovingian|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/The Merovingian|E]]) 21:46, 1 April 2006 (CST)

<blockquote>The Cylon Centurions may also have different armors. For instance, a small number of them wreaked havoc when boarding Galactica, and could only be destroyed using explosive rounds (Valley of Darkness). </blockquote>
Other than their resistance to small arms fire, there was no indication that the Centurion boarding party comprised an up-armored model, although that would not be a bad a idea considering the close and nasty fighting they could anticipate.

Comparison of the images on the Centurion page <ref>http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Image:Cylon_Centurion_New_001.jpg</ref> and <ref>http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Image:Centz.jpg</ref> does show evidence of modified armor. Furthermore, additional armor would reduce speed and manuverability, which creates a contradiction, as the attack on Galactica is when the Centurions were at their most nimble. I propose that this is not a matter of Cylon armor, but of Colonial ammo.

Its been a while... that and I don't own any of the DVD's so somebody has to help me out here...
But Helo and Boomer's "kills" on Caprica are suspect because the Cylons were playing with him. Did we ever confirm the destruction of a Centrion via Colonial Fleet sidearm fire? Or did they just fall down and play dead after getting hit with lead spitballs?

On Kobol, again, I don't recal any confirmed pistol kills, we did see some probable rifle kills. But a rifle with full metal jacket, ball round; heck, if I'm fighting Cylons, all I'm bringing is armor-piercing; is a very different catridge from a pistol round. By way of example, fire a full metal jacket, 9 mm Parabellum from a HK P9 pistol. Now fire that same round from an HK MP5. The MP5 will have higher muzzle velocity, longer range, greater accuracy, and greater penetration. Changed that to a necked-down micro-caliber, and a service rifle could concievably take out Centurions with the right ammo.

Which brings us to the question: "Why didn't they have the good bullets on Galactica?" Sean Connery said it oh so well in Hunt For Red October, "Most of the things in here don't react too well to bullets."
Shipboard security is probably issued some time of frangible round that won't over penetrate, and won't richocet too much. That also means it is pretty much uselless against armor. The limited stockpile of explosive rounds are there "just in case" they need to penetrate some armor, but the dedicated armor piercing ammo is probably stored somewhere that was not conveniently accessible.

With regards to the Cylons varried speed and intelligence, I still think that the Centurions are like the Raiders, crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside. Its also possible that the team sent to board Galactica was a group of elites. Older, more experiences, better trained. Kind of like Scar in a way...

[[User:Grimlock|Grimlock]] 20:24, 15 October 2006 (CDT)

:You make some good speculative points based on episode history. You might want to review the article to see where you can add these questions you bring up as references or in the notes section of the article, as appropriate. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 03:29, 16 October 2006 (CDT)

:That centurions come equipped with different armor was mentioned by Bradley Thompson in the BW:OC. They are neither organic nor sentient though. --[[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 08:06, 16 October 2006 (CDT)
:Yeah, I noticed the stuff about the non-sentient, non-organic stuff shortly after writing all that. I guess the if its an official source we have to accept the assorted armor thing. Though it begs the question, why not use the beefy ones more often?
[[User:Grimlock|Grimlock]] 23:19, 16 October 2006 (CDT)
:: The Cylons are practical beings, who are limited by the amount of natural resources at their disposal. It follows that they may not need to upgrade Centurions ''en masse'' since it's not the most practical thing to do. As Six mentions in the Miniseries, they still have the old "walking chrome toaster" models around, since they have their uses. Or they may simply be limited by said resources at their disposal. After all, you don't need a heavily armored Cylon to plant tress now, do you? In addition to that question, bear in mind that Centurions also double as manual labor -- heavier armor detracts their effectiveness, even if they are machines. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 07:48, 18 October 2006 (CDT)

== Armor Hood ==
More a question of curiosity then anything else, but while I was looking at some of the pictures (especially the ones from the miniseries and those from season 3) I noticed the metal "hood" the Centurions have that covers the back of their head seems to vary in sizes. In the miniseries and the full body picture in the wiki, the hood seems to rise higher then the top of the cylon's head. But in other [http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/Image:Centz.jpg shots], such as those of the Centurion garding Baltar in Collaborators, the hood seems noticeably smaller. I'm wondering if its a change in design or simply due to the positioning of the Cylon's head. --[[User:Ghilz|Ghilz]] 22:40, 30 October 2006 (CST)
:It's just the positioning, the Centurions have looked the same throughought the whole series, if only looking a bit taller....but they're probably the same height too. --[[User:Sauron18|Sauron18]] 23:51, 30 October 2006 (CST)

We've already established that Centurions are just 'bots. No organics, presumably no downloading. While Athena may have provided the reasoning behind that, there is a good reason not to limit the Centurions that way. The best example is Scar. He was experienced, wily, and very lethal.

Now imagine how the events in Valley Darkness could have gone if there was one centurion on each team that had 1/3 of that skill and experience. I'm not saying the Centurions can't learn... but if they can learn and benefit from experience, are they smart enough to rebel later?

The smart move would be to build a Centurion around the CNS of a skin job and just download into a "combat" body when needed. But this doesn't seem possible. Recall tha tCavil had to scratch open his carotid artery with and empty shell casin.

== Slur/nickname sources ==
It'd look great if we could track down the episodes where the "bullethead", etc., euphemisms are used and cite them using ref tags (so that we'd actually have a references section). --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 15:21, 10 April 2007 (CDT)

== Height ==
Guys, how tall are Centurions? Majestic's 12-inch figure is really 13.5' (1:6) which would translate into a real-life height of 6'9' '. Others say it's more like seven or even eight feet. What do you think? -- [[User:Pedda|Pedda]] 09:02, 23 September 2007 (CDT)hat
:I would say, based on on screen evidence, that they are in the 6'5' to 6'7' range. --[[User:Helo87|Helo87]]

==Knowledge of the Five==
There's a line in the article which I feel we should perhaps remove-

:'''''"As with the Seven humanoids, the identities of the "Final Five" Cylons are not known to Centurions, as several soldiers have fired on these people before, notably Samuel Anders."'''''

I think this mainly because it's not a fact, and the fact is that for all we know they haven't been shooting at Anders but at his resistance people (never actually hit him), so whether they do or don't recognize the Five is not really known, and while we can guess from what we see, it's not certain. So I would suggest we just remove it to prevent any possible problems in the future. --[[User:Sauron18|Sauron18]] 16:02, 17 October 2007 (CDT)

yeah I reread it {{unsigned|KDP3}}

== "Shooting" Cylons ==

The process of actually comping in a Cylon Centurion is a little different than described in the final paragraph. The cardboard cutout is used only for framing purposes, so that there's enough space for VFX to place a Centurion properly. Stand-ins may be used in blocking out complex moves, but when it comes to shooting, there's nothing there, meaning the actors are reacting to empty space. Anything left in the shot would mean additional work for VFX to erase it before comping something. I haven't seen the video blog referenced (Sci-Fi seems to have taken down the blogs), but it almost sounds like a joke the crew was playing on hapless PAs. -- [[User:Mmm...toasty|Mmm...toasty]] 21:10, 13 February 2008 (CST)

== Re-formatting the article. ==

Would anyone consider re-formatting this article to make it more like the one for the 0005 Model Centurion? I like the general design of that page and the way that it cleanly presents information - and that it gels with the ship articles in terms of layout. I could redo this article to fit said mold in the next few weeks, if this is desired by the community, or someone else could do it before hand if they want to see it done earlier. --[[User:Helo87|Helo87]]

In the sixth episode of the fourth season, Faith, a Centurion in the Hybrid's chamber has a design that differs from the ones we'd seen previously. Here is an image:

It's not a huge difference, mainly those added divisions on the shoulders, but the Centurion also appears to be a bit shorter and slightly thicker. Idk if it's worthy of being mentioned, or what other's thoughts on this are.--[[User:Sauron18|Sauron18]] 20:49, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Just a few concluding remarks I don't blame you for what you did, where I in your position I would have done the same thing. The reason I didn't respond to Serenity's first post was because until yesterday I had been unable to figure out how. As far as fear of retribution, I've never really been involved with a wiki before so I wasn't really sure what to expect and was kind of intimidated. I appreciate you're addressing my issues. Not only did it help me understand why things were happening the way they were, but it also made me feel like my input was welcome and that was all I was asking for. I am anxious to see any clarification you can offer in the weeks ahead because I find this a rather fascinating topic.

Thanks again for the clarification. {{unsigned|Grandmaester314}}

=== Examples ===

Here are some examples I made for the Stargate Wiki FR:

* To see minor characters:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:LigneMineurs Automatic generation of a line with five stamps] using DPL with entry of the series, the season, and the first article sorted.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un/Page_1 Automatic generation of minor characters for the first page] with automatic sort by last name
**[http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Personnages_Universe/Mineurs/Saison_Un Automatic creation of minor character stamps page links] with automatic image update and automatic update of the first and the last character name of this page.
* To see objects:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Ligne Automatic generation of a line]. All you juste have to do is to put the correct category.
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Portail:Armes Autogeneration of a page] with the famous lines.
* To resume objects in a bottom navigation bar:
** [http://fr.stargate.wikia.com/wiki/Mod%C3%A8le:Divers Nav bar] automaticaly updated (put the right category)

All you have to do with this kind or templates is to put the right category and DPL (with a purge) will do the rest. The main purpose of DPL is to avoid editing when the database can do the stuff for you. You don't have to edit an article or a template to update with new article of the same category. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 08:28, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi Joe,

I'm on the verge to edit the policy for the french version of [[BW:RFA|Request for Admninship]] and [[BW:RFB|Request for Bureaucratship]]. I need your help for this two policies.
# Do I just translate the English version with the same vote system than the main site?

# Is the principle of request the same than the main site?
Thanks for answering.--[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 11:25, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

: If you have any suggestions as to improve the policies in question, then that would work well. Until the French wiki has more contributors, I don't think the RFA and RFB are really going to work all that well, and so administrators are promoted on a case-by-case basis as determined by you, me, and Shane. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 13:10, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

:: Until I design or translate all the templates needed and the main page, I think there will not be a lot of contributors. The main problem is the lack of French and French-speaking people who speak English fluently. French people are not very confortable with English, so it's very difficult for them to contribute unless they have seen the show and are fans. With your agreement, I will just create one page for RFA and RFB with the statement you said above (Shane, you and me). FYI, all the episodes of the [[Re-Imagined Series]] have been aired in France, and have been released in DVD format (I just saw the Season 4 Part 2 Set yesterday in a supermarket) . --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 14:22, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

# On the media repository, I tried to upload an image. It is actually somewhere in the directory but the sofware is unable to create a thumbnail. It says that it cannot find the "convert" file on the server. So for now, it's impossible to add new images on the media repository.

== Calendar dates on auction items ==

Hi Joe,

I expanded the [[Colonial calendar#Different Dating Methods]] section with information from a couple of auction items and noticed in the process that you wrote at least some of the blog entries at battlestarprops.com. Do you recall seeing any calendar items I haven't mentioned yet, and if so, could you point me to their pictures? It would also be nice to see a higher resolution scan of Socrata's medal of valor document, if one is available.

Regards,

-- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 19:55, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

: I honestly never really paid all that much attention to the dating thing, since it was all made up anyway. (''Star Trek'''s "stardate" system is a very good example of this, actually. It isn't until they did TNG that they really put thought into it.) There is very little consistency behind the dating on any of the paperwork; in television production, much of it is thrown together—some of it even at the very last minute—even taking into account the quality of BSG's paperwork being higher than other genre television series. It isn't until ''Caprica'' that they really tried to address the issue of the Colonial dating method, because it's simply not natural not to have characters ''not'' say "Hey Lacy, meet me for lunch on Saturday."

: As for photos of the stuff, the [http://archive.propworx.com Propworx archive] has photos of everything that's been auctioned through Propworx. I also know of a few fans who have won many paperwork documents from the BSG auctions (both live and via eBay) that have taken the time to scan them, but most of their work is on private boards and some prop replication communities. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 02:34, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. The scans on that site have a much higher resolution and I already found a couple of items with supposed dates. I would like to document them in the article primarily to establish that there was no real system in the re-imagined series as opposed to ''Caprica''. Such random alphanumerics also suggest to the reader that the dates in Adama's dossier need not be correct necessarily (e.g. the year 20000+). -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 18:16, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

== "pos" extended parser function ==

Hi Joe, I would like to ask if it is possible to add the "'''''pos'''''" Parser Function into the wiki, this will allow to do some research more easily (for example to do an action on pages with a certain text and not on the others). Thanks for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 12:57, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

: Do you have a link so I can check this out? I take it this is an extension to MW. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 13:15, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

:::: One example for the moment:
::::* The [[fr:Modèle:Apparitions Télésuite, 1re nuit|Modèle:Apparitions Télésuite]] template using [[fr:Modèle:Apparition]]. I use the '''''pos''''' to show the number of apparitions only on the Apparition page (condition) :
::::** When you see it inside the episode: [[fr:Télésuite, 1re nuit#Apparition des personnages|Télésuite, 1re nuit#Apparition des personnages]]
::::** When you see it inside the characters apparition page: [[fr:Liste des apparitions des personnages par épisode#Battlestar Galactica|Liste des apparitions des personnages par épisode]]. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 20:31, 12 May 2010 (UTC)

== HTML activation ==

Hi Joe, I think the wiki has not the HTML function activated because I tried to import some Wikipedia template to adapt them to the wiki and those have htlm writing inside and it doesn't work. So, please, is it possible to activate html editing in the french wiki? Thanks a lot. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 11:34, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

:::: I tried it but there is an issue when you use a template using parser function inside another template using parser functions. It doesn't recognise at all a link (an image for an example) created by the template inside, it separates the link like a colspan. At least, is it possible to activate only the <code><nowiki><td><hr><tr></nowiki></code> tags? --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 13:21, 23 May 2010 (UTC)

== SVG generation ==

Hi Joe, I hope you're fine, I've seen a little problem with the SVG generator. It doesn't work properly. Here is the message I get :

<code>Erreur lors de la création de la miniature : /usr/bin/rsvg: not found</code>

I think it's a missing file forgot during the transfer last december. Thank you for your answer. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 08:21, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

: It's that rsvg isn't presently installed on the new server. I'll send in a support request. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] - [[bsp:|Battlestar Pegasus]] 18:39, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

:: Hi, Joe, Still doesn't work, sorry. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 16:36, 6 July 2010 (UTC)

== removal of my question ==

Hi !

Yes, it was a real question : how could the pegasus avoid further contamination by the Cylon virus. Is this answered in future episodes ?

Why did you simply remove my question ?

Regards,
Nixab (new fan and new contributor here).

:I think it's a valid question, Joe, so I noted that the answer is in [[Razor]] and spelled it out in the [[Answered Questions from Season 2 (RDM)#Pegasus|Answered Questions from Season 2]]. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 03:25, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

== Jupiter-class battlestar issue ==

I have a problem with your edit of my edit on the Jupiter class battlestar Galactica. The book I refered to is canon since it was written by the science advisor to BSG and sactioned by SyFy and Ron Moore. If yoiu prefer your wiki not to contain official information then that is fine and I will not bother to add any other information to your site. I will rely solely on official material such as this book. Cancel my membersip please.
Good Bye. {{unsigned|Lonewriter}}

: Please refer to [[BW:CITE#Acceptable_Sources|Acceptable Sources]], which list the sources of what makes something canon. Just because there is an error in a book sanctioned by Syfy Channel, does not mean it is automatically canon. As I've only started reading the book, I've already noticed errors (mostly with spelling, such as Cally's name), that raises a few doubts in my mind when it comes to how thoroughly the book was copyedited.

: As I believe I had explained, the episode that the writers of the book refer to ("Pegasus") does ''not'' make mention of ''Galactica''<nowiki>'s</nowiki> class. ''At all.'' So, they made a mistake, or improperly cited the source. (Now, if it came from the script for that episode, I can see that. We've used scripts as sources before.)

: Now, if Ron Moore or David Eick were to come out and say "well, they're right, ''Galactica'' is a ''Jupiter'' class" then we will certainly note that, and cite that it came from them. Furthermore, maybe I wasn't clear, but I'm not saying that we should throw out the reference at all, but '''it needs to be pointed out that the way the information is present is in ''direct contradiction to what viewers saw on screen.'''''

: Believe me, were this information aired in "Pegasus" fans would have eaten that up, just like they (we) ate up the whole ''Mercury'' class reference that Adama made before Cain boarded the ship. :)

: Now, as to your immature comment, it does suggest that you probably wouldn't be a good editor here, because you don't seem to understand how to critically analyze information, or the necessity of viewing all information with a critical eye. That's fine. There are people who simply don't have that ability. There's nothing wrong with that. Also, you don't have to use the site, at all. I hate to be disingenuous and brusque, but if you're going to use appeals to emotion instead of actually bothering to do the research (which I, and many, many fans have done over the past five-plus years) then you're welcome to leave and never look back.

: However, let me be particularly clear when I say this: what I have done is pointed out this error, which you've brought to our attention, so thank you for that. Now, if you want to act like a prima donna and storm off in a huff, then that's your call. You're more than welcome to stay, or you are more than welcome to leave. Ball is in your court. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 02:58, 22 October 2010 (UTC)

== William Adama edits ==

I seem to find the spoiler tag formatting (I edit on wikipedia but we have nothing similar there) so I'm just going to be as vague as I can be and hope you understand. While reading over the spoilered info on William Adama's page that you recently added I realized that you have a character connection slightly off. If you check my edit history, you'll see I made a similar change on a related page. Hope that's enough for you to see what I meant (since I can't edit the Old Man's page). [[User:Millahnna|Millahnna]] 23:00, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

: Yes, I got what you meant! I'll make the correction now! Thanks! -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 02:41, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

== Duram's files at Propworx ==

Hi Joe,

Have you preserved alternate photographs of Duram's files which are now on eBay? The available photo makes Clarice's file halfway legible, but I'm curious what's in Amanda's and other files. I'm not planning on buying them though, since I'm only interested in the information, not in provenance. Even so, thanks for participating in the auctions — the photos have provided so much useful information that would've normally disappeared with the shows. -- [[User:Graf Iblis|Graf Iblis]] 22:10, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

: I'd have to ask Jarrod, since he's the one who oversees the Caprica auction stuff out in LA. (I'm not in LA, so I don't have easy access to this stuff myself.) -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 23:00, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

== Reference in Template ==

What does putting the ref in break? I don't see anything unusual except that the 33 has to be bracketed to be a link. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 22:47, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

: Issue is that the brackets are printed out, and they really shouldn't be. I guess I'll have to modify the infobox template to deal with that. Basically a separate field that is only for references, like "|seenref=". -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 00:42, 8 March 2011 (UTC)

== Affiliation ==

Hello would you like this wiki to affiliate with my independent wiki http://stargate-wiki.org/ ? [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 23:38, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

: Hi there, feel free to e-mail me directly at joe@frakmedia.net so we can talk about it more. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 23:44, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

Not sure if you got my email or not, anyway, would you prefer to join the SIWA Network (Scifi independent wiki alliance)? http://siwanetwork.webs.com Basically just lets more people interlink with these wikis and its always good to have more links to your site laying around. It costs nothing and we dont really ask for anything in return. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 06:35, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: Thank you for the offer, but I will decline. I really see no benefit for this wiki and its contributors in being a part of the SIWA Network. In fact, I feel that our inclusion would only be beneficial for you, seeing as we have a wide exposure. We've run into loose fan organizations like SIWA before, and frankly they are not worth the bandwidth that it takes to pull up the webpage. Our experience is that such things are not professionally run and are basically glorified fly-by-night operations operated by unprofessional, doe-eyed fans with unrealistic expectations. Nothing personal against you, it is just our experience. And, as for traffic and links, we've found that being a part of a glorified "webring" has no return on investiment. A majority of new traffic has always, and without fail, come from two sources: 1) word-of-mouth (forums and social networks), and 2) search engines. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 10:25, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

I had 22 new visitors to my site because of SIWA. Your loss i guess. Also it really doesn't make it less offensive when you call me: unprofessional, doe-eyed fan with unrealistic expectations then say no offence. Even you should see that. Well if you change your mind, let me know. [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 11:56, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

: And how many of those 22 people will stick around and contribute in the long-haul? Since there are so many Stargate wikis out there, those results aren't surprising... and, don't get your hopes up, as they will be short lived. Traffic from web rings and "alliances" is short-lived, and with extremely poor to negligible long-term ROI. I've been running websites for the last 15 years, so I am well aware of what I'm taking about.

: Furthermore, I was not making a personal attack against you: I was making a general observation about such organizations, however since you are keen to make it about yourself: given your behavior in the past towards another member of this website (and bringing problems from an outside wiki to this Wiki directly and without provocation from us), I find ''that'' unprofessional. End of subject. Thank you for the offer, and have a splendid day. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 12:16, 4 June 2011 (EDT)

Wow, take it overboard much. I was going to link certain articles like actors other work here etc but because of that attitude, you can forget it [[User:Escyos|Escyos]] 12:21, 4 June 2011 (EDT)
