The Episode Guides at Battlestar Wiki are patterned after the Lurker's Guide To Babylon 5 Episode guides. As such, the "Questions" section is intended solely for questions (ideally questions that may be answered in subsequent episodes, which might be linked to once they are revealed). It is not intended for back and forth discussion, analysis, or disagreements. Questions that have been answered within the episode may be moved down into the "Analysis" or "Notes" section if they are noteworthy. Analysis that stems from questions should also be located in the "Analysis" section. Ideally the "Questions" section will consist solely of a single level of bulleted questions, with occasional links to "Answer"s (from subsequent episodes) or "Analysis".
Good Examples
- Does Doctor Amorak truly have something on Baltar's involvement in the holocaust?
- Is Six actually in contact with other Cylons, and thus involved in the disappearance / reappearance of the Olympic Carrier?
- What happened to the group of survivors Helo was left with in the Miniseries? (Answer)
Bad Examples
- Billy reports that the number of survivors is down by 300 - some lost through death from injuries, etc., some "lost" through initial inaccurate counts, and the rest have "disappeared." How can people simply "disappear" in the fleet?
- Perhaps the black market has put them to work. Or this number accounts for the people aboard Prometheus.
- 300 people is way too few to account for the people aboard Prometheus. Besides, some of the losses actually were due to deaths.
- Perhaps vigilante justice (like in "Collaborators" was at work?
- Why would so many be killed on such a large scale when it wasn't even clear that there was a traitor?
- Obviously there's still at least one traitor aboard...
- Why would so many be killed on such a large scale when it wasn't even clear that there was a traitor?
- Perhaps the black market has put them to work. Or this number accounts for the people aboard Prometheus.
