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)
