== Minor text corrections and tense edits == | |||
There were some minor text corrections in word choice that were made for simple proofreading. Also edited the tense from present tense to past tense to make it read more like a biographical entry and not something that is going on currently. Also changed names in certain instances to make it more clear who was being referred to in the description rather than just leaving it as a pronoun or last name only. I hope these changes are acceptable for an otherwise well-written article. [[User:Wjclerk|Wjclerk]] 17:48, 3 October 2013 (EDT) | |||

Tory
I'd like to know where someone got 'Tory Foster' from. Was it in the closing credits? I aks, because I know her first name was spelled 'Tori' based on the subtitles during the episode. If anyone has a better source, then show it. --Ltcrashdown 08:27, 18 February 2006 (EST)
- Okay, i saw the note about being in the credits. I changed it back and modified the main page with 'Tory' instead of 'Tori'. --Ltcrashdown 08:30, 18 February 2006 (EST)
Tigh's advice
"The four newly discovered Cylons try to keep their nature hidden from those around them, while trying to come to terms it. When they brainstorm ideas about the still missing final Cylon, Colonel Tigh suggests that Foster sleep with Gaius Baltar to gain access to the knowledge he acquired while living among the Cylons..." He didn't suggest that she sleeps with him, he said "You don't have to get on your back for him", he meant she should flirt with him to find out something. I've corrected it. FrakkinToasterLover

Minor Correction of Terms.
Biography PP2, 1st line should be "subluminal speed" not "subliminal speed". Writer may have typed "subluminal" but changed it to "subliminal" because "subluminal", while being a perfectly legitimate word in relativistic physics, isn't in the baseline spell-check dictionary. I added it to mine.
"Subliminal speed" doesn't make any sense and I've been burned too often to trust spell-check.
If this sounds like, and quite possibly is, almost offensively pedantic, in my defense the only reason I bring it up at all is that in Crossroads 2 the music that clues Saul, Galen, Sam, and Tory into the fact that they're Cylons (and which Saul originally thinks is Cylon sabotage in Galactica but which nobody else can hear) is in point of fact truly and legitimately "subliminal" and it's important to recognize that.
The fact that they are able to travel at relativistic but still subluminal speed (slower than a tachyon) helps make it clear why the Final 5 are 2 late to prevent the 1st Cylon war.
- It's not pedantic at all. You're supposed to notice and correct these typos. You don't need to bring it up on Talk Page, though. The "Be Bold" policy is there to encourage you to correct an error yourself when you notice it, unless you're unsure if it's an error and it requires discussion, which isn't the case here. I'll fix it. -- Noneofyourbusiness 18:02, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
