Reliable source required

I don't want to delete this article as these ships obviously exist in the game, but I flagged it to point out that it uses a now-unofficial source. We need anyone who can play the game and rewrite the article with the content or verify the existing information to remove this tag. --Spencerian 18:15, 29 May 2006 (CDT)

The Video game isn't canon in the Re-imagined series, it's merchanise. It didn't even sell well, it wasn't good, and RDM doesn't consider there to have "been" a BSG video game yet. We should have had one page for the Video game's stuff, not clutter up everything with all of these. --The Merovingian ^{(C - E)} 18:31, 29 May 2006 (CDT)

Unless I'm mistaken, and with the exception of silly pages and the fan fiction article, we aren't differentiating about source information for the video game articles any more than we do for the central episode articles. For the video game's data, we need to keep it canon to itself, and that means the sources for the game must be official, too. --Spencerian 18:55, 29 May 2006 (CDT)

Since someone had managed to get an image of the game Viper, we have something to work with, so I changed the delete tag to cleanup and hope that someone with a copy of the game can verify the information so that we can dump the unauthorized Galactica.Net source. --Spencerian 09:57, 14 June 2006 (CDT)

I did a standard cleanup/format on this article but didn't address the sourcing problems; feel free to re-add {{cleanup}} if necessary. (I'm used to using other tags for that--do we have something like {{unsourced}} or {{fact}}, as Wikipedia has?) --Fang Aili 15:12, 21 September 2006 (CDT)

Thanks, I added the cleanup tag for now. If we don't have those tags, we should. A note to Shane (the man responsible for much of the new templates and appearance) can whip up one or direct us to an existing one. --Spencerian 16:12, 21 September 2006 (CDT)

Wikipedia's {{fact}} template is a copy of its {{citation needed}}, as is its {{citeneeded}}. --CalculatinAvatar^(C-T) 19:49, 21 September 2006 (CDT)

The article is clean, but still needs citations. I've pulled the "cleanup" tag and replaced it with several "citation needed" tags. I will try to get ahold of a copy of the video game for some verification. JubalHarshaw 08:48, 10 April 2007 (CDT)
