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)

You get the honor ;) --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 12:58, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Nuke 'em from orbit if necessary. It's the only way to be sure. ;) --Spencerian 15:39, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

I hear that. :) --Talos 18:50, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Icon Issues

Icons are showing up in the lower left for me (all the way at the bottom). Basically all icons (TOS, FA, SOK, etc). I'm using the monobook skin. --Steelviper 21:52, 9 October 2007 (CDT)

Ah... Shane didn't update that skin with the needed CSS changes. Sssshhhhhaaaaannnneeeeee! -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 21:57, 9 October 2007 (CDT)

I blame work. :) Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 00:21, 10 October 2007 (CDT)

In which browser did this happen? My TOS icons show up just fine in Firefox 2.0.0.7. --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 07:54, 10 October 2007 (CDT)

Right, me too. However, I'm running the monobook skin (in part to catch stuff like that). It works fine for me with the default skin. --Steelviper 22:48, 10 October 2007 (CDT)

I believe I've nabbed the issues with the icons. (Simple copy and paste job; I copied the styles from bsgbook and pasted them into bsgmonobook.) Try it now. ;-) -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 03:35, 11 October 2007 (CDT)

Joe FTW! It took a hard refresh, but it's working. --Steelviper 04:43, 11 October 2007 (CDT)

Region 2 Germany box sets labels

Region 2 Germany season 2 DVDs came in two sets. Season 2.1 and Season 2.2 Never did find the whole set of season 2 in one box. Just thought you might like to note the labeling of the sets as 2.1 and 2.2 Your listing of DVD sets chart for the regions does not reflect this labeling. I know because I was very confused when I tried to find the 2.5 set and couldn't.

Hope this is the right place for this. If not, sorry. If you don't care about this labeling difference...sorry again. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ficklebee (talk • contribs).

Interesting. Definitely worth noting. Have any links for these box sets? Thanks for the heads up ... and of course we care! LOL -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 15:01, 11 October 2007 (CDT)

We only cover English-language releases here. The US set is indeed called 2.0 and 2.5; probably because they wanted to go for a computer/tech feeling. Even the Aussie set still has "2.5" on the cover even though it's the complete season (for just ~23€ btw). If you want info on german DVDs check the german wiki which should reflect the local labeling, though I really don't know. --Serenity 15:03, 11 October 2007 (CDT)

Hmm, doesn't seem to cover any DVDs at all... --Catrope^{(Talk to me or e-mail me)} 15:31, 11 October 2007 (CDT)
