|

|
| Hello Joe, I was wondering if their might be a possibility of us adding on a message board for members of BSG Wiki to discuss the actual show rather than the website itself. I think that if we created a community message board it would promote a greater community/fraternity among the members and if we limited it to members it might decrease the number of random messages left on the board. I know it is kind of unwiki of us to do this but since this particular site it concerned with BSG rather than a plethora of items I thought it might be a good idea. What do you think?

| | Why was the quote of the day section removed from the main page. That was one awesome section which automatically updated daily, and gave us some kind of dynamism in the main page. It would be really nice if that could be added back. I don't have rights to edit the main page. So, some one with rights should do it. -- [[User:CylonU87|CylonU87]] 05:32, 23 February 2012 (EST) |

| What's with the (non-working) quote o the day on the front page? Is this a template problem, or what? Can I help? ....or what? [[User:Colonial one|Colonial one]] 22:54, 16 Aug 2005 (EDT)
| |
| :There is no automatic script to generate the quotes. They must be added manually per day. You can add them yourself, should you choose to take up the task. :-) -- [[User:Joe.Beaudoin|Joe Beaudoin]] 23:09, 16 Aug 2005 (EDT)

| ::I'd like to add a quote, but, uh... I don't want to mess it up because it then won't be seen for a year, I think. Is there a way to look at quotes that have already been put in, so I can copy the formatting? I tried the little Quote link, but the one that was added for 08 29 wasn't on there, so I think that's not right. Or something. I'm such a confused noob. ;) --[[User:Day|Day]] 00:59, 30 August 2005 (EDT)
| |
| :: That's OK, Day. I (or someone) can do a template for a quote-of-the-day. -- [[User:Joe.Beaudoin|Joe Beaudoin]] 09:49, 30 August 2005 (EDT)
| |
| :::On that note, how can I see a list of templates, in case I want to utilize one. So far the only way I've figured it out, is to find a page that uses it, edit that, to steal the template info, then go to the place I'd want to use it, paste it in, then change the stuff appropriately. --[[User:Day|Day]] 11:50, 30 August 2005 (EDT)
| |
| :::Whenever this all gets sorted out, I guess it needs to go here: [[Template:Quote of the Day/Readme]]. I can certainly do it, it's just the link is small, and I thought I'd note it here for future reference, as well. --[[User:Day|Day]] 05:09, 31 August 2005 (EDT)
| |
| ::::So... I guess I should go ahead and ask some specific questions... I assume we incluse the words said in double-quotes. It's really the attributation... attribution... Whatever--the indication of who said it that's the issue. Do we put the name with a dash before? Two dashes? Do we do it in-line or on the next one down or two down? Do we do it in italics or bold or normal font? Do we say the situation all the time or only if needed? Should we link the episode it came from? These are the kinds of things I think should be in the readme. --[[User:Day|Day]] 19:15, 1 September 2005 (EDT)

| :Yo, just thought I'd add that I worked on the [[Quotes]] page quite a bit. It displays all current quotes (that I know of). And it should be super-easy to link to more quotes now, just check the source for example. ~ [[User:Aero|Aero]] 00:06, 30 September 2005 (EDT)

| == NPOV? ==
| |
| Does BattlestarWiki have a NPOV policy, as Wikipedia.org does? I was noticing some pretty strong POV in [[James Callis]], for example. --[[User:Fang Aili|Fang Aili]] 10:10, 12 September 2005 (EDT)
| |
| | |
| : It does, indeed. For reference, see the [[Battlestar Wiki:Welcome, newcomers]] page. Hope that's helpful. --[[User:Day|Day]] 18:04, 12 September 2005 (EDT)
| |
| | |
| There also seems to be a great deal of opinion in the "analysis" section of most episode guides. Is it the intent to not use NPOV in this section? - Jason

| == Fan Fiction ==

| Since we don't have a community portal yet, I suggest listing fan fiction pages here for later deletion or movement to the forthcoming fanfiction site.

| ==IRC Channel?==
| |
| Some friends and I have an [irc://irc.villageirc.net/battlestargalactica IRC channel] set up for discussion of BSG. Would it be appropriate/acceptable to link to it in the 'Community' box on the [[Main Page]]? Or elsewhere? ~ [[User:Aero|Aero]] 00:06, 30 September 2005 (EDT)

Quote of the day.
Why was the quote of the day section removed from the main page. That was one awesome section which automatically updated daily, and gave us some kind of dynamism in the main page.
