I think we should avoid splitting pages according to different series, especially when the amount of information we have on the subject is so sparse. All the information we have on Earth easily fits into one screen of properly formatted text. I'm not sure if anyone else notices it, but Wiki pages don't exactly load quickly, and I think the community should try to avoid excessive compartmentalization as much as possible.

*Abosolutely not. Wiki pages load perfectly fast on any computer I use; problem is on your end, not us. Purpose of this is not to worry about having to cut away information, but to upload as much as possible. Information should not be sacrificed for length. I mention splitting the two, because (had you not just recently arrived) you see we have quite recently been splitting the Galactica and Pegasus articles. If it were not for the fact that I don't know how to make a disambiguation page I already would have. ---[[User:Ricimer|Ricimer]], October 5, 2005 | *Abosolutely not.

Revision as of 21:33, 5 October 2005
Concision
Jzanjani, your summary of events here is very well written, but I wonder if it's necessary to go into such detail on this article - the topic is Earth, not Roslin's various visions. Would you mind if I tried to make it a little more concise? --Peter Farago 04:01, 5 October 2005 (EDT)
- I agree, this is on the Line. Further, this page should *definately* be turned into a disambiguation page and split into two separate ones: one for TOS Earth, one for RDM Earth. RDM's Earth could be entirely different from the old one. ---Ricimer, October 5, 2005
- Ricimer, I think I agree with your statement about colonial FTL drive, but I thought it would be prudent to point out that colonial sublight engines also run on Tylium - c.f. Apollo's ready room comments in "Resistance". --Peter Farago 12:15, 5 October 2005 (EDT)
