Delete?

I'm leaning towards delete on this one as well. It's pretty much just military jargon for "bed". "Rack time" refers to how much sleep you've been able to get. As far as I know it's usually just the bed itself, with the room that contains the rack usually being some sort of a barracks. --Steelviper 08:50, 18 July 2006 (CDT)

No, I don't think this would acoomplish much. Just do what I did for "hack": I redirected it to "Brig". I *Think* the proper term they use in the series in "Pilots Duty Locker" (from Final Cut) though I'm not sure if Junior officer's quarters or something else was ever used, need citation for those. --The Merovingian (C - E) 22:04, 18 July 2006 (CDT)
Other minor things which don't warrant an article, put under a *subsection* of the main "Galactica-type battlestar" article, and make a redirect for searches for that type of thing. --The Merovingian (C - E) 22:06, 18 July 2006 (CDT)
