Nice Work!

I enjoy reading about the new Galactica starship and look forward to more details as the series progresses...and to adding my own edits, too.

Keep up the good work on this page.

On behalf of the rest of the team, thanks! This wiki has grown a lot from the work of a few hundred people and a lot of readers! Spencerian 22:44, 13 October 2005 (EDT)

I am here, I make the edits. There was little choice in the matter. --Ricimer, October 13, 2005

Formatting Question

When formatting the "full name" of Galactica is it:

...the Battlestar Galactica
...the Battlestar Galactica

or

...the battlestar Galactica?

It seems to me that it should be the second.

"Galactica" or "the battlestar Galactica"; never "the Galactica". Battleship and aircraft carrier are not proper nouns, so battlestar isn't either. See Battlestar wiki:Standards and Conventions#Ships. --Peter Farago 20:56, 17 October 2005 (EDT)
