User talk:Determinant

Welcome to Battlestar Wiki!

Greetings, Determinant, and welcome to Battlestar Wiki! I'm pleased to tell you that you have full editing privileges on every wiki in the Battlestar Wiki network. I hope you enjoy your stay with us and am looking forward to your contributions to the Wiki! Why not begin by telling us a bit about yourself on your own user page?

As you may already know, Battlestar Wiki covers all the Battlestar Galactica series from past to present, in addition to authorized merchandise and separate continuity materials such as comics and tie-in novels. We do not cover fan fiction. We're also not a discussion site, although we do have an ever-growing Battlestar Forum where people can discuss the various shows and non-BSG topics as well!

To get started on the wiki, we suggest that you check out our tutorial, experiment in the sandbox (a test editing area for those learning wiki code), and review some of our basic policies (which have important differences from other SF wikis). For some general questions and answers about the navigation and operation of the Wiki, check out the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).

Of course, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, you are more than welcome to bring them up at the Chiefs' noticeboard (which is frequented by the administrators of the Wiki) and at the Galactipedians' Quorum (which is the hub for contributors, who are called "Galactipedians").

Furthermore, if you don't wish to see the ads, then please consider upgrading your account to a paid membership, which costs only $10 USD a year and helps support the wiki financially. This membership also extends to the Battlestar Forum, where you can talk to other members about the show and most anything that you want to talk about to BSG fans! We think this is very cool, and we hope you do as well!

Thank you for joining us! Hope to see you soon! -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 19:05, 22 July 2013 (EDT)

"Ppidoo"

I reviewed the video at the point that you cited and didn't see anything labeled like this. Whether or not it's there, it seems like much too minor a detail for its own separate page. "Razor" has been completely mined for relevant details by now. -- BlueResistance 07:55, 8 August 2015 (EDT)

@BlueResistance:

I would have supplied a screenshot, would I not have been forced to create another (!) account on the media subdomain. It is definitely there, and at least as visible as the dogtag of Belzen.

Just a note: As you are an administrator, maybe, just maybe, instead of deleting faithful contributions to the oh-so-complete Battlestar-Wiki you could see to it, that this site itself gets fixed up:

Dead links everywhere (FrakMedia! e.g.), the edit fields looking damaged (\[<textricheditor>\] does not quite seem to fit the original intention, as it might be the case with the edit toolbar disappearing completely on preview) etc.pp.--Determinant 09:01, 8 August 2015 (EDT)

Even if "Ppidoo" is there in the movie and you can provide a screen grab, it seems to be far too minor a detail for its own page. True, the Wiki is far from complete, but there are much bigger gaps that can be filled. Summaries of Blood and Chrome and the last four episodes of Caprica immediately come to mind.

As to other problems on Battlestar Wiki that you mentioned, the more technical ones are above my level of administrator access, and those with sufficient access have very little contact with the Wiki these days. Red links are a different matter; whenever you encounter them, you are welcome and entirely capable of deleting them on your own, just like any contributor. I delete red links whenever I see them, but writing for and administering this wiki are hobbies--not a full-time job--and my ability to find time for them lately has been rather constrained. -- BlueResistance 09:49, 8 August 2015 (EDT)
