The '''Original Series Article Development Project''' is a long-winded title for a fairly large project to develop articles relating to the original ''[[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Battlestar Galactica]]''.  
The '''Original Series Article Development Project''' is a long-winded title for a fairly large project to develop articles relating to the original ''[[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Battlestar Galactica]]''.  


== Reasoning ==


Currently, much of our attention is directed at providing information to the current ''[[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|Battlestar Galactica]]'' series.  While the articles relating to that series are very well developed, the area of the original series remains lacking in comparison. This was noted by [[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] on [[Talk:Main Page|the Wiki's general talk page]], which said, in part:


: ''... BSG Wiki has one Achille's Heel; the comparative lack of information on the Original Series pages as opposed to the Re-imagined Series is almost shameful ...''
== Featured Content ==


Therefore the drive into creating content for the original series should be a concern. Obviously, this is a voluntary effort, but any fans of the original series who wish to contribute are welcome to focus their efforts in creating articles related to the original ''Battlestar Galactica''. (It also gives us something to do while awaiting the October airing of [[Season 3 (2006-07)|Season 3]].)

==== Verification ====
 
Articles that have been worked on, but need verification before crossing out as completed.
* [[Arts and Entertainment of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - tucana singers, gambling
* [[Blonde Taurus]] - seems pertinent enough for an article of her own...
**Added bit about "most practical form" as well as the "bigger, stronger, interchangable parts"
* [[Fashions of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - more screencaps and descriptions of carillon patrons, maybe add the council's dress (especially the more diverse opening council)
* [[Gold Cluster]] - to be awarded to Apollo, Starbuck, and Boomer by Sire Uri, the military's highest honor
* [[Government of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - government, [[Quorum of Twelve (TOS)]], concept of referendum on Carillon (disarmament issue)
* [[Imperious Leader]] - one of the main eps for this character
* [[Society of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - society, such as religion (Otori sect)
* [[Technology of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - Languatron, etc.

* Information articles
**[[Uniforms (TOS)]] - Article is in its nascency. Information on ''Pegasus'' related items is already included from "The Living Legend" episodes. Needs to be much more developed in terms of anything outside that.
**[[Deleted scenes (TOS)]] - There are many deleted or extended scenes for the series that are on the DVDs. We need to compile a list, since such a list doubtless rivals even its analog, [[Deleted scenes]] for the current series.
**[[Continuity errors (TOS)]] - A definitive (and doubtless lengthy) list of errors that proliferate the original series needs to be worked on as well. This is a goldmine article, and would undoubtedly have a future as a Featured Article.

=== General ===


== Episode Guide "Completion Candidates" ==
We should probably do a series of articles similar to the RDM "Twelve Colonies" series that Peter started. Here's an idea:


These episode guides have information filled out for all sections. They need a final check to make sure spelling, links, etc, are as intended. Striking an episode out will indicate it is "complete".
* [[Fashions of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - Covers the clothing and other "bling bling", since it's pretty unique.
* [[Arts and Entertainment of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - Good place for [[triad]], [[pyramid]], and minor games we see in the series (in particular this would be a great place for those games we see in "Fire in Space")
* [[Technology of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - tech and all that
* [[Government of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - government, [[Quorum of Twelve (TOS)]], and all that jazz
* [[Society of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - society, such as religion
* [[Life Sciences of the Twelve Colonies (TOS)]] - Covers the medical and psychological aspects of the Colonies, in progress

This section is going to be huge and unwieldy at first, but it will be used as a staging ground for organizing an episode by episode to-do list, so that as people watch the "featured episode of the period" (a forthcoming feature, hopefully with a better title) they can easily navigate to the articles that need to be updated (or created). This could theoretically be implemented by using categories, but some articles would gain upwards of 20 cats, which might get ugly.

Roughly [http://en.battlestarwiki.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Whatlinkshere/Saga_of_a_Star_World&limit=500&from=0 500 articles] link to Saga of a Star World. I'll pick out some that need obvious attention. Feel free to add to the list.
* [[Saga of a Star World]]
* [[Tucana singers]] - article creation plus picture
* [[Tucan]] - update to point to Tucana singers (once it exists)
* [[Cylons (TOS)]] - most of the mythology is layed out in this ep
* [[Cylon Mine]] - fact checking, better cites?
* [[Greenbean]] - note mentions him being in the script, is he in the ep?
* [[Defensive shields]] - more details, pictures?
* [[Battlestar (TOS)]] - particularly confirming the battlestar names
