== Title ==

Is there any particular reason the title is "Blood and Chrome" with "Blood & Chrome" as a redirect? All press information has used "Blood & Chrome" as the spelling, which says to me that it should be the other way around. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 17:54, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

: The ampersand is a bit of a technical issue in the URL, which is why we're using "Blood and Chrome" for right now. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 18:04, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

:: Ah. I hope that it gets fixed. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 05:24, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

== Placeholder image? ==

Until the powers that be release a title card or promotional photo for ''Blood and Chrome'', could we use the [[Cylon Centurion Model 0005]] closeup as a placeholder? The image seems to be generic enough to represent any Cylon War-era story. More importantly, we need something for the "Next Aired Episode" box on the main page. -- [[User:BlueResistance|BlueResistance]] 12:58, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

: That works. ;-) -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 13:15, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

:: Actually, having thought about it, it would probably suit us to use one of the production art images that are available online. Even if they're just rough art, it's more representative of the production than the Cylon Centurion from "Razor." -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 20:54, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

:::this might be a little silly, but i did a quick logo for the show, that we could possibly use, obviously it's not offiicial. [[User:Pst001|Pst001]] 03:29, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

:::: We use officially released photography and art whenever possible. Since the concept art is released, let's choose one of those images and use that. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 13:14, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

== Tag for Blood & Chrome ==

We don't have a tag for Blood & Chrome, yet, do we? What's it gonna be? BAC? -- [[User:Pedda|Pedda]] 17:32, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
: I'm thinking either BC or BAC. More suggestions and discussion are welcome. :) -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 22:57, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
:: BC sounds to me more like a calendric acronym, whereas BAC sounds more fannish. -- [[User:Noneofyourbusiness|Noneofyourbusiness]] 23:22, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
:::B&C? [[User:Pst001|Pst001]]
::: Can't really use the ampersand. I'm leaning toward BAC. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 21:59, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
::::I'm also cool with BAC (to the Future).--[[User:DrWho42|DrWho42]] 01:30, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
:::::BAC, It stays consistant with the other 3 letter tags-- [[User:Quig|Quig]] 22:47, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
::::::So BAC it is? -- [[User:Pedda|Pedda]] 23:46, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
:::::::Yes, BAC it is. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 00:12, 17 January 2011 (UTC)
::::::::Does the ampersand issue still arise if you use the code (I forget what it is, I think it's the HTML code) for it? Just curious... I haven't heard of wiki's having issues with this (but then you all may be doing something different here).

==Character Names==
I am not exactly sure which source was used (to list names on this wiki), but I read an article a few minutes ago, and it said that [[Lili Bordan]]'s character is ''Beka'' Kelly (As opposed to Becca). While I know that wiki's tend to have users "be bold" I thought I would mention this in case "Becca" was confirmed through a more official source. --[[User:Typhoeus|Typhoeus]] 20:14, 20 February 2011 (UTC)

== Summary ==

Will you make a new page called "Blood and Chrome (Pilot)" or simply write the plot into the Plot area of this page? --[[User:Enabran|Enabran]] 16:17, 20 December 2012 (EST)

: I guess the best way to do it would be, to rename the current page at [[Blood and Chrome]] to [[Blood and Chrome (series)]]. And have a new page for the pilot at [[Blood and Chrome (pilot)]]. -- [[User:CylonU87|CylonU87]] [[User talk:CylonU87|I don't feel like a copy.]] 00:33, 21 December 2012 (EST)
:: Actually, it's not a series yet. For now, it's more like ''[[Razor]]''; a webseries, and a soon-to-come TV-movie. --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 01:23, 21 December 2012 (EST)
::: You could keep it as one entire page, since it hasn't gone to series. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 10:51, 21 December 2012 (EST)

:::: is there a chance, that it will go to series? --[[User:Enabran|Enabran]] 13:14, 21 December 2012 (EST)

:::: It's up in the air. For now, let's work on the present fact that that this is the only thing we see from B&C, and act accordingly. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 13:26, 21 December 2012 (EST)

::: And what about a page called "Blood and Chrome (Movie)"? If we put all infos (Summary, Notes, Analysis, Questions etc) in this page it maybe becomes confused. --[[User:Enabran|Enabran]] 14:31, 21 December 2012 (EST)

:::: Why would it be confusing? It probably wouldn't be much longer than "[[The Plan]]" or "Razor" once it's finished, since the total run time is about the same as those movies. Besides, a good deal of the production history information on the page was added piece by piece over the nearly two years, with little attention given to organizing or prioritizing or consolidating it, so it's a bit of a mess now. I'm sure that once it's cleaned up, though, it will be noticeably shorter. -- [[User:BlueResistance|BlueResistance]] 19:05, 21 December 2012 (EST)

::::: I agree. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 19:32, 21 December 2012 (EST)

:::::: I do agree too. I think, as BlueResistance said earlier, we just have to keep and clean this page. And if, I said if, there is a TV series, to create a BAC (pilot) page in which we put the plot, and we rename this one with adding "(series)". --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] 02:07, 22 December 2012 (EST)

:::::::Ok when we rearrange the Themes to:1 Overview 2 Summary 3 other stuff... it will be good and the important things for the reader (the Plot) will be on the top of the page). One more thing: "Razor" and "The plan" uses "Episode Data" and this Page uses "Series Data". Shall we change this for now? And where would you list this movie in the "Template:Episode list"? to "DVD Movies and Features" or to "Webisodes" (for now it seems to be both...) --[[User:Enabran|Enabran]] 04:23, 22 December 2012 (EST)

:::::::: It should use the Episode Data template, for now. It's more of a DVD movie than it is a webisode, so it should be put under that. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] [[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]] 15:45, 22 December 2012 (EST)

== Series Continuity ==

I don't know about anyone else, but I am seeing some major continuity gaps between B&C and the rest of TRS continuity. Is B&C separate, or part of the same continuity line? By the way, I am not just talking about different actors. For example, in the Miniseries, they say that Adama flew a Mark II Viper, but in B&C he flew a Mark III. Anyone else seeing these, or is it just me?
