| I'm used to the fixed-width typeface in the editing box. Is this a new characteristic of the three skin options? I like the CSS for the most part, but it would be better to see text with a fixed width option more characteristic of wikis. Also, the Preview header text "This is only a preview; changes have not yet been saved!" shown in a article edit mode with the default BSG skin is so dark in my Firefox browser as to be unreadable. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 16:37, 23 August 2006 (CDT)

| |
| Holy cow! Being informative is good, but the Airdates section is continuing to grow unchecked. Any suggestions as to how we could slim down the look on the mainpage, but still have it be easy to access for people to find their respective airdates? --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 11:00, 25 August 2006 (CDT)
| |
| : I know this might sound biased, but one idea is to just list the US, Canada and UK airdates on the main page, then list all the other country airdates on a subpage in a fashion similar to what we do with the Main Page news. Since most of our audience is going to be from those countries anyway, we may as well focus on them.-- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 11:52, 25 August 2006 (CDT)
| |
| ::I too was wary of bias. However, realistically we can't fit everybody's airdates on the main page. I'd like to have that info here, but it's not our primary mission (we're not tvguide.com). I concur that we should select a cutoff for main page airdates and then store the rest on a separate page. Maybe a one-link depth (clicking the "airdates" icon would take you to the "All airdates" article, of which the "US/UK/CAN" is just one of the child templates. This would require a change to the main page (pointing to the new US/UK/CAN template), the creation of the US/UK/CAN template, and a massive redesign of Mainpage/airdates to accomodate the new "global airdate" scheme (as well as including a display/edit of the US/UK/CAN template). That'd be my best guess. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 12:03, 25 August 2006 (CDT)

| :::It might be late for my suggestions, but I was waiting for an official information. Here:<br/>1-<br/>It's now official, Space Channel will be following the SciFi broadcasts. But it will be airing the day after, the saturday. So the Canadian airdate is almost the same as the US, it'll be kind of redundant, right? So my suggestion is to merge US and CAN, and have a side note that explain that CAN is the day after, the saturday.<br/>Or 2-<br/>My second suggestion is to have, on the main page, a quick list of the '''next new''' episode for each contry. Something like:<br/>
| |
| | |
| ::::'''US''' » ''Occupation'' and ''Precipice'' - Fri. October 6th<br/>
| |
| ::::'''CAN''' » ''Occupation'' and ''Precipice'' - Sat. October 7th<br/>
| |
| ::::'''UK''' » ''Occupation'' - October...<br/>
| |
| ::::'''AUS''' » ...<br/>
| |
| ::::''etc.''<br/>
| |
| | |
| :::We can also use the flag of the country! The idea of the list came because I'm not sure about the airdates of the reruns and the marathons needs to be on the main page and I think everyone can wish to come here just to have a quick look to know when the next episode is. But, with that, we create a second page with a section for each country for all the reruns airdates, the last week episode, the next two or tree weeks episodes... In other words, a TvGuide page. Some people might be interested in that kind of information, and since it won't be on the main page, I don't think that it's a problem to have a TvGuide.<br/>Or<br/>We keep it that way, it's good enough :) --[[User:Karoshi|Karōshi]] 13:13, 31 August 2006 (CDT)
| |
| ::::Well... we already have the next and previous episode up at the top, but the airdates give the time and channel. {{flag|US}} is not working :( But to understand you correcty....
| |
| | |
| ::::Main page - Times of next episodes only.
| |
| ::::Other airdates - Times of next episodes only.
| |
| ::::(New Page) TV Reruns - Times of next reruns for the same.
| |
| | |
| ::::I would still suggest we keep the same lanauges and not do this witht he german dates as they have their own wiki. But US, UK, CAN, and AU I see no problem with. I would have to get some more flags imported :-) --[[User:Shane|Shane]] <sup>([[User_Talk:Shane|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Shane|C]] - [[Special:Editcount/Shane|E]])</sup> 14:04, 31 August 2006 (CDT)
| |
| :::::Why the US flag doesn't work?<br/>I agree to keep ''english'' airdates on the ''english'' main page (and german date with german wiki...). The idea with the list on the main page, is to have at most 2 lines per country (well maybe 3). And just have the next new episode '''only'''. Ex: The next new on SciFi is on October 6th. <br/>The new page is for all the others airdates. Like Space Channel will, if I remember well, air once again TOS. So we need a kind of TvGuide. Re-air TOS or all the reruns or marathons, is kind of the same thing: an encore presentation. So the new page is for that, all the dates including the previous episode<br/>So, MP is short and quick with every country watching in english (with the flags or not).<br/>And New Page is long and detailed for every country (not for the one who has their wiki, like german).<br/>I hope this is clear. --[[User:Karoshi|Karōshi]] 16:00, 31 August 2006 (CDT)

| :This wiki still has a theme in the usual wiki colours but a new desiend was created by some members of this wiki to give it a unique look and feel. The [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki MediaWiki] site has some great tips on how to do all this. --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 05:18, 30 September 2006 (CDT)

| : Well, it's pretty damn cool. What's really cool is that the referrers are coming more and more from outside the USA. Most of them are, actually, from Googke UK, Google Germany, and Google Canada. There are even hits from Myspace and non-English language forums... interesting. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 13:42, 6 October 2006 (CDT)

| == Suggested addition to Main Page: Link to the episode guides ==
| |
| | |
| I think it would be nice to have a link to the episode guide on the Main Page, in addition to the links to the most recent episode and the next episode. It takes several clicks to get to the Season 3 episode list or the list for any other season.

| ::You might not know that you have to go to the portal to get to the episode guides. I agree with 123home123, Im sure that the importance of an episode guite warrents a clreal link on the front page --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 10:10, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

| ::I believe the current system is more than sufficient; takes two clicks -- three if you want to get to a specific episode. The only issue I presently have is that the sub-portals (which has two icons, one of which is to the Episode Guide) should be placed as the first box on the portal page for RDM, TOS, and 1980. -- [[User:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|Joe Beaudoin]] <sup>[[User talk:Joe Beaudoin Jr.|So say we all]] - [[Battlestar Wiki:Site support|Donate]]</sup> 19:49, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

| == BIG NEWS ==
| |
| A new series has come to light OSC (Original Seres Continuation). Despite its (currently) canceled state i believe that it is worth doing as it was in production (see http://www.cylon.org/bsg/bsg-desanto-01.html).[[User:JosephK19|JosephK19]] 04:02, 23 October 2006 (CDT)

| :Thats not new, and we have a section here on the wiki about the failed [[Battlestar Galactica (SDS)|DeSanto/Singer]] project as well as Richard Hatch's [[Battlestar Galactica: The Second Coming|proof of concept trailer]]. p.s I fixed a few typos, hope you dont mind. --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 04:18, 23 October 2006 (CDT)

| | 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) |
