Important Update Information

Due to issues of hijacked "zombie" computers attempting to spam Battlestar Wiki, users who wish to edit the Wiki will now have to create an account.

As for the upgrade, it will commence Friday, August 26th. Some downtime is to be expected. Due to the fact that MediaWiki 1.5 is not yet available, we will be upgrading to version 1.5beta4. As decided by a vote and discussion, our new domain name will be http://www.battlestarwiki.org. All should be available after the 26th. Thank you for your attention.
