Now ive seen this clip and I am not sure which ship you mean? You did not add any details about the ship to its own page so its stayed a broken link for a while now. Are you sure its not the same as the [[Five-engined vessel]]?

:I moved your new article to [[Tubed-vessel]] because there is nothing to suggest that this ship is a tanker of any sort and thus that is considered fanwanking. I also added a few categories and tidyied it up a bit. It still needs a lot fo work to bring the quality up however and most importantly it needs a picture because I am not convinced that this ship is different to the [[Five-engined vessel]] which also has tube like appendages on its sides. --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 02:56, 17 May 2007 (CDT) | :I moved your new article to [[Tubed-vessel]] because there is nothing to suggest that this ship is a tanker of any sort and thus that is considered fanwanking.

I see you have created two new pages for the [[Yellow vessel]] and [[Long Neck vessel]]. these pages are a bit stubby and need more details, especially a screenshot to determine if indeed they are new ships or just odd angles of already identified ones. The ship template will also need to be filled out. You can see an example [[Five-engined vessel|here]] --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 03:33, 3 September 2007 (CDT) | |||

Welcome to Battlestar Wiki!
Welcome to the Wiki, CoreyDanian. Feel free to tell us about yourself on your user page. Before you get started on other edits, please read the Standards and Conventions, which details the policies we use in editing pages (this differs from many other wikis in its particular use of verb tense, abbreviations, formatting, and the like). If you need help in learning how to use the MediaWiki tools supported here, you can check out the tutorial and the wiki markup code pages for assistance.
Please read the articles "What is Battlestar Wiki" and "What Battlestar Wiki is Not." This important information details what contributions are acceptable in this encyclopedia.
We encourage you to participate in any projects on Battlestar Wiki, which work to enhance a particular subject or extension of the wiki. These include the Original Series Article Development Project and several language translations of Battlestar Wiki. If you have a new idea for a new project, visit the Think Tank, where we hash out large-scale ideas before implementing them.
Also, if you have any questions or suggestions you wish to offer, please feel free to do so either on an article's talk page that's relevant to the subject, the Wikipedian Quorum or the Administrators' noticeboard. Remember to sign your posts on any talk pages using four tildes (~~~~)!

Officiai Information and Questions
Hi, Corey, and welcome to the wiki! I've answered a handful of questions in talk articles. Be sure to visit Battlestar Wiki:Citation Jihad. It should answer your questions about what we use here for official information. Sadly, we can't verify (or have verified) that many websites make up their information (this is called fan fiction) and so it doesn't match to what is actually on the shows. For ships and their classes, for instance, if we know an official name that's been aired, we use it. Otherwise, we use descriptive names, either ones we generate ourselves or ones used on official sites, of which Sci-Fi.com is the only one. We also have a few rules on how we like to write things; you already know one (in italicing ship names). Visit Battlestar Wiki:Standards and Conventions for more. Be bold and have fun, but also use the search tool to look for information before adding it in; we're pretty quick here to add every little detail we see! But you might see something we don't! Have fun. --Spencerian 22:53, 2 October 2006 (CDT)
Six tubed vessel
I know this was a while ago but I only just noticed it. You added in February the following to the The Fleet (RDM) article. (revision)
- Six tubed vessel, seen throughout the fleet and jumping away from New Caprica at the end of "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II"
Now ive seen this clip and I am not sure which ship you mean? You did not add any details about the ship to its own page so its stayed a broken link for a while now. Are you sure its not the same as the Five-engined vessel? (see right) --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 07:51, 15 May 2007 (CDT)

Unnamed ships
I see you have created two new pages for the Yellow vessel and Long Neck vessel. these pages are a bit stubby and need more details, especially a screenshot to determine if indeed they are new ships or just odd angles of already identified ones. The ship template will also need to be filled out. You can see an example here --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 03:33, 3 September 2007 (CDT)
