Could you please have a look at [[BW:SAC|Standard and Conventions]]? For example the part about the formatting of titles. Episodes have quotation marks around them when cited within a sentence. But other works such as ''Star Trek'' are written in italics, and not with quotation marks. That might sound arbitrary, but it creates a consistent look.

The content of your contributions are good, but the formatting needs to be polished a bit sometimes. This isn't meant as a huge criticism. Just a suggestion :) --[[User:Serenity|Serenity]] 07:43, 31 January 2007 (CST)

Welcome to Battlestar Wiki!

Welcome to the Wiki, FulltimeDefendent. Feel free to tell us about yourself on your user page. Before you get started on other edits, please read the Standards and Conventions, which details the policies we use in editing pages (this differs from many other wikis in its particular use of verb tense, abbreviations, formatting, and the like). If you need help in learning how to use the MediaWiki tools supported here, you can check out the tutorial and the wiki markup code pages for assistance.

Please read the articles "What is Battlestar Wiki" and "What Battlestar Wiki is Not." This important information details what contributions are acceptable in this encyclopedia.

We encourage you to participate in any projects on Battlestar Wiki, which work to enhance a particular subject or extension of the wiki. These include the Original Series Article Development Project and several language translations of Battlestar Wiki. If you have a new idea for a new project, visit the Think Tank, where we hash out large-scale ideas before implementing them.

Also, if you have any questions or suggestions you wish to offer, please feel free to do so either on an article's talk page that's relevant to the subject, the Wikipedian Quorum or the Administrators' noticeboard. Remember to sign your posts on any talk pages using four tildes (~~~~)!

We look forward to your contributions to the community! --Shane (T - C - E) 00:21, 12 December 2006 (CST)

Standards and Conventions

Could you please have a look at Standard and Conventions? For example the part about the formatting of titles. Episodes have quotation marks around them when cited within a sentence. But other works such as Star Trek are written in italics, and not with quotation marks. That might sound arbitrary, but it creates a consistent look. Moreover, ship names are also put in italics.

The content of your contributions is good, but the formatting needs to be polished a bit sometimes. This isn't meant as a huge criticism. Just a suggestion :) --Serenity 07:43, 31 January 2007 (CST)
