Battlestar Wiki talk:Think Tank/Episode number links

I liked this idea before. Also change the Production Number into a Wiki link on the {{Episode Data}} field. Support Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 05:08, 13 July 2006 (CDT)}

I can't think of anything actually wrong with this, but I didn't think people would search episodes like that by number. --The Merovingian ^{(C - E)} 12:15, 13 July 2006 (CDT)

It's not like it'll take a lot of resources (they're just redirects), and if it'll aid navigation then I'd be in favor of it. We could maybe check their "hit" count at some point in the future to see how much it is being utilized. --Steelviper 12:25, 13 July 2006 (CDT)

I was somewhat thinking about something similar for a while now, but thought the better of it. Mainly because I am slightly leery of adding a slew of redirects, however I don't know of anyone who would type in "3.1" and intend to find an article of it. While I'm not convinced it would be entirely useful to do, I wouldn't object to people going through with this proposal. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 20:34, 17 July 2006 (CDT)

I like the idea, though I think 3x01 should be included and 3.1 omitted. --CalculatinAvatar^(C-T) 04:28, 24 July 2006 (CDT)

From what little experience I have in looking at official episode numbering for TV shows I had gathered that the use of a decimal was an industry convention. I could be wrong, of course, but I thought I'd throw that out there. I'm not sure how I feel about this proposal. --Day ^{(Talk - Admin - SotS)} 12:54, 24 July 2006 (CDT)

There is so many different ways. 1x01, 1.01, 101. BSG does the 101, 102, 103, way though, just like their podcasts. Maybe that way should be it. --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 13:34, 24 July 2006 (CDT)

301 style would also be good. Redirects are cheap, after all, and I've seen each of those three separators (".", "x", and nothing) many times before. --CalculatinAvatar^(C-T) 13:32, 24 July 2006 (CDT)

To be clear, I meant that 3.01 would still be included, just not 3.1. --CalculatinAvatar^(C-T) 13:32, 24 July 2006 (CDT)
