I'm kind of iffy on having this as it's own article, because it's more of a going-on than an organization, but then again there's kind of and organization, so I guess we should keep it, ering on the side of caution.--Ricimer 21:09, 28 January 2006 (EST)

Given that it has a head and a central hub, I think its safe to say that this is an organization. One thing I did have a problem with, however, while writing the article, I had to use an episode as a time reference. Is either a) that okay? or b) can someone think of a logical way to reword it? --BMS 21:14, 28 January 2006 (EST)

Sourcing for Legalized Prostitution

A reference in a recent article edit seems unsourced:

Though some prostitution was arranged by the Black Market, the practice is not, of itself, illegal.

I'm striking this line until a source appears. Lee Adama's appearance with Shevon does not necessarily constitute the tacit legality or illegality of prostitution, and it is the only sourcing I can think of that comes to mind. Original Series concepts of socialators don't apply here. --Spencerian 18:52, 3 February 2008 (CST)

As I recall, Zarek says something to the effect of brothels being legal during his visit to Lee Adama. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus} 22:25, 3 February 2008 (CST)

Thanks. My transcript source is offline so I couldn't confirm it. I'll revert the page. --Spencerian 22:38, 3 February 2008 (CST)
