Priorities (in no particular order):
I have watched this featured episode.


* Episode summaries
===[[Battlestar Wiki:Podcast Transcripts|Podcast Transcripts]]===
**There's only one season worth of material, so there's not much excuse not to have episode summaries on all of the TOS episodes.
I've done a few podcast transcripts. I'd appreciate it if somebody would verify those.


* Galactica 1980 Content
==Development Pages==
**[[User:Mokwella|Mokwella]] has contributed a wealth of info on this, so I'm trying to format it and categorize it to be uniform.
Experimental pages or pages in development that aren't ready for the main namespaces (yet).
**This sort of falls outside the scope of TOS, but since it is part of the more neglected content so I'm hoping we can bring it along.
**I need a pic and bio info for "Col. Boomer" from the 1980 series.


===[[Battlestar Wiki:Island of Misfit Images|Island of Misfit Images]]===
* [[User:Steelviper/Ads]] - some "advertising" ideas for Battlestar Wiki
I'd encourage everybody to check out the [[Battlestar Wiki:Island of Misfit Images|Island of Misfit Images]], the home of some images that have been uploaded but not linked to. Hopefully you can either help them find a good home, or help identify ones that need to be deleted.


===[[Battlestar Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard|Administrators' noticeboard]]===
==Future Projects==
I've got this added to my watchlist. We'll see whether or not the idea catches on.
* [http://www.battlestargalactica.com/classicdocs/pop_art0039.htm TOS nitpicks] - a neat link I found looking for Red Squadron info.


==[[Battlestar Wiki:Translation Project|Translation Project]]==
==Steelviper's Thoughts==
I've been helping out some with the i18n effort. (Yep, there are 18 letters between the "i" and the "n", and that's the way we used to abbreviate it at one of my former jobs.) As we start to get more native/advanced speakers onboard this I'll probably focus more on my usual link-fixing/pattern following habits on the translated pages, leaving the real translation to the people that possess such talents.
Pages in my userspace where I reflect on wiki or BSG stuff.


==Special Pages==
* [[User:Steelviper/Admin|On Adminship]]


===[[Special:Wantedpages|Wanted Pages]]===
== Personal Records ==
* I started working this list due to the TOS project. The TOS references are all but gone, but I still monitor this list to see if any articles need to be created or if there are some consistent typo-induced broken links. Also, users now comprise a majority of the pages on this list, so if your name comes to the top, expect an invitation on your user talk page to create a user page. I guess I shouldn't worry about it, but I'd like to see this list all but disappear.

===[[Special:Disambiguations]]===
==Origin of Nickname==
* Sometimes there are legitimate reasons to link to a disambiguation page. Generally, though, it happens accidentally, when people mean one of the specific pages that it links to. When I started in on it I believe there were around 700 pages listed on this. We're down in the 100's as of right now, and I'd like this list to be around the size of the wanted pages (or less).
"A truly fearsome beast, the great viper of Arcadia possesses strength and tenacity unmatched by any other predator on that world. It coils around its prey in a crushing embrace, then finishes its kill with a deadly poison. The warriors of the Clan I name Steel Viper show remarkable tenacity in battle and in their service to our great mission. May they continue to serve with unshakable faith, and may their opponents learn to fear the fangs of the Steel Vipers."<br />

* [[User:Steelviper/CommunityPortal]] - a group effort to prototype the community portal
 
* [[User:Steelviper/Cylons (TOS)]] - a gathering spot for original series Cylon info (not yet even a prototype)


==Future Projects==
I'm a brown belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, having trained for over a decade now.


* TOS Character histories
**If nobody else has done this, I may start updating the character histories of major characters to be more like [[Boomer (TOS)]], having a brief synopsis of what happens to them throughout the series (complete with episode citations).

I have been known to post to civfanatics.com, glocktalk.com, ar15.com, and bikeforums.net using this same handle.  So if you see a Steelviper there, it's me. I also have a Steelviper account over at wikipedia now, but I've got about 5 edits.
