== Reorganization ==
I don't like how this page tries to be a category. We should use categories themselves to organize.
I'm preparing to reorganize the various continuities, using categories, to make them easier to view:
*By publisher
*By series or story arc, if limited-run series
*By continuity (this is already done with the separate continuity tagging)
I've begun by creating a category for the Dynamite comics series, which are the currently active publications, but will backdate through earlier comics. I may begin a project that, like the [[Battlestar Wiki:Original Series Article Development Project|Original Series development project]], calls out to the masses (genus: ''homo sapiens fanboi'' ) to fill in the synopsis of these comics.
Once the categorizations are done, this page will be an encyclopedic summarization of the history of ''Battlestar'' comics, with perhaps contrast and comparisons, and be renamed. -- [[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 10:30, 23 April 2007 (CDT) <sup>([[User_Talk:Spencerian|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Spencerian|Contrib Skillz]] - [[Special:Editcount/Spencerian|Edit Skillz]])</sup>

Revision as of 15:30, 23 April 2007

The Wikipedia article on Battlestar Galactica comics is much more detailed than this one. -- —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kravotran (talk • contribs).

In regards to the Wikipedia article, we do have individual pages for each comic book, so the info is segmented (and thus the main article is smaller). After all, our page is called a "List of Comics", which does its job with links to each subsequent comic. Granted, the stuff about the old comics on the WP page is interesting -- but I have a serious problem with it. After a brief review of the article, a majority of it doesn't seem to be very well sourced even by Wikipedia's standards; the only two links of notable reference are in regards to the comics for the re-imagined series. Of course, I don't say that to disparage anyone, but as a constructive criticism. So if you feel that the info is lacking, then by all means feel free to add any information necessary, as long as it is cited from reliable sources. :-) -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 06:50, 19 October 2006 (CDT)

The Realm Press comics do exist. I've seen them at a local comics store although I haven't bought any yet.--Kravotran 22:41, 19 October 2006 (CDT)

Cleanup and Expansion

This article needs a few things:

  • Adjustments in its formatting. It may be that Original Series and Re-imagined Series comics should have their own separate lists.
  • Addition of the Realm Comics series (see note above in this talk page)

Reorganization

I don't like how this page tries to be a category. We should use categories themselves to organize.

I'm preparing to reorganize the various continuities, using categories, to make them easier to view:

  • By publisher
  • By series or story arc, if limited-run series
  • By continuity (this is already done with the separate continuity tagging)

I've begun by creating a category for the Dynamite comics series, which are the currently active publications, but will backdate through earlier comics. I may begin a project that, like the Original Series development project, calls out to the masses (genus: homo sapiens fanboi ) to fill in the synopsis of these comics.

Once the categorizations are done, this page will be an encyclopedic summarization of the history of Battlestar comics, with perhaps contrast and comparisons, and be renamed. -- Spencerian 10:30, 23 April 2007 (CDT) (Talk - Contrib Skillz - Edit Skillz)
