Battlestar Wiki talk:Think Tank/Wikipedia Policies: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 01:36, 13 September 2006

There is an issue that User:Scotchfairy brought to our attention at Battlestar Wiki talk:Welcome, newcomers. Basically, what Lee said was that someone shouldn't have to jump to another place (well, Wikipedia) and find out information on how to use the wiki, which is potentially confusing to new users who've never used wiki software before. So, instead of linking to Wikipedia for policies we use, we should just probably import them here. Thoughts? -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate} 20:21, 12 September 2006 (CDT)

I agree linking off-site is bad, but really need to get BW:POL comfirmed at the same time then so it can all be in confirmed. --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 20:36, 12 September 2006 (CDT)
