This noticeboard is a location to discuss and coordinate administrative tasks for the Battlestar Wiki.

It is our hope that this place can serve as a location for administrators to coordinate their efforts on the maintenance tasks of the Wiki (it's not ALL fun and games), as well as a spot for our contributors to be able to bring things to the attention of the admins if something needs to be done. Need a protected page edited? An article or picture deleted? Admins will watchlist this page so that your request won't get lost in the shuffle.

New Zealand Season 3 DVD Release Date Announced

FYI, Season Three on DVD will be released in NZ on November 21, on the same day as in Australia. The 5-disc set will be identical to the Australian version (and I believe the UK Region 2 version) and have no extras. It will retail for NZ$59.95 (US$45) and come in the now-standard slimline (12mm wide, same as single disc) case. Triton 15:56, 4 November 2007 (CST)

Xbox 360 BSG Game

How can someone submit you guys some news without making an article about it? You might remember some comments a year or so ago about a BSG game coming to the XBox 360, and It's out now. Thought that might be newsworthy. o.O —The preceding unsigned comment was added by ShinRa Actual (talk • contribs).

Welcome to the Wiki! :-) We actually have an article on the 360 video game. The article is located here. You can add information to it by clicking the edit button and adding what you want to add. :-) -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 00:54, 11 November 2007 (CST)

Thanks for the information. If you haven't changed it already yourself, you can always do so as a registered user of the wiki! --Spencerian 08:59, 14 November 2007 (CST)

Upload by URL

Could uploading by URL (i.e. uploading a picture from another web site rather than from one's hard drive) be enabled for sysops on the media repository? Also, could I be promoted to sysop status there? To enable upload by URL, add the following line to LocalSettings.php:

$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['upload_by_url'] = true;

Re-imagined Series definition: Battlestar Group ^{(TRS: "Water")}. It also doubles as an acronym for the television series itself.
