Revision as of 15:06, 31 October 2010

How accurate should we consider information published within the Caprican? It's an official Syfy product, and ostensibly written by the show production staff...does information contained in Caprican articles qualify for inclusion in the wiki? -- Liquidcross 14:09, 16 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

As of right now, the information should be added with the caveat that it is: a) noted that the information comes from an official Syfy product, and b) it is written using information from the production, but it may not necessarily be canon, even if it elaborates on people, events and other items that are introduced in Caprica episodes. Basically, we add information from it. If it contradicts information that's already been established, we add it anyway but note that it is a contradiction and the reason why that is the case. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 14:13, 16 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

What will happen to these articles? The Internet Archive would save them right?--DrWho42 23:23, 28 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

It may or may not, but since the Wiki probably would not be allowed to reproduce all the blog posts in their entirety, we should make sure that any pertinent information is incorporated in various Wiki articles (while making it clear that the information comes from the blog and may not be canon, of course). -- Graf Iblis 17:02, 30 October 2010 (UTC)Reply
