This noticeboard is a location to discuss and coordinate administrative tasks for the Battlestar Wiki.

It is my hope that this place can serve as a location for administrators to coordinate their efforts on the maintenance tasks of the Wiki (it's not ALL fun and games), as well as a spot for our contributors to be able to bring things to the attention of the admins if something needs to be done. Need a protected page edited? An article or picture deleted? Admins will watchlist this page so that your request won't get lost in the shuffle.

New Zealand Broadcast Update

Hi all,

Just to let you know that TV3 are NOT going to continue onto Season Three when Season Two finishes, so they will finish broadcasting on October 9th.

Also, I spotted yesterday that New Zealand's satellite broadcaster Sky TV have started reruns of Season One on their Sky One channel. On Friday October 12 they will be playing ep103 'Bastille Day' at 8.30pm. This episode also repeats a few hours later at 3am Saturday morning.

Will let you know when I know about the DVD release for S3, which should be sometime in December (either that or will be in late November, as that's when Australia gets it).

Thanks.

Sorry to hear that. Anyway, thank you for keeping us appraised. :) -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 14:48, 7 October 2007 (CDT)

Item of interest

Did some Googlin'. Regarding Pooh the hat... he's apparently been blocked on Wikipedia for, uhm, some interesting contributions. A lot of it has to do with a fascination for grabbing male genitalia with either the hand or rubbing the area with the foot (which explains the edits to Tigh Me Up, Tigh Me Down and Lee Adama), disturbingly enough.

I'd say we go ahead and block the user, because I don't see him understanding how to constructively contribute here. Thoughts? -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 12:11, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Mhh interesting. I did of course notice the spamming and vandalism and while I had the urge to get out the banhammer, I didn't want to do so at first sight. You probably saw my two-stage warning on his user page. But considering your research, we seem to have a professional troll at our hands. --Serenity 12:31, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

w:User:Liempt put it very well:

While I'm sure you are avid about what you would do someone's genitals,
you have to consider before you add content whether or not the addition contributes positively to the whole of Wikipedia's knowledge.

I say we give him one last warning: stop your vandalism or be blocked. The Template:Warn-4 treatment, in other words. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 12:47, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

That's fine by me. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 12:56, 8 October 2007 (CDT)
