Periodically Updated Thought

"A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct." - Princess Irulan, in Frank Herbert's Dune

The second law is always working against you... best to gird against it as much as possible in the beginning, because it's not going to get any easier.

Battestarwiki Projects

TOS Improvement Project

Priorities (in no particular order):

• TOS Character histories
  • Basically just need to do Lucifer.

• Episode Guides
  • Basically done with the summaries, now we need to fill in questions, analysis, quotes, and notes.

Podcast Transcripts

I finally caved and added this to my list. I always felt that my transcription was too slow, and preferred verifying, but I've been doing some transcription lately.

Development Pages

Experimental pages or pages in development that aren't ready for the main namespaces (yet).

• User:Steelviper/Ads - some "advertising" ideas for Battlestar Wiki

Future Projects

• Battlestar Wiki:Categories - I'd like to obsolete the Character template with really good categories.

• TOS nitpicks - a neat link I found looking for Red Squadron info.

Origin of Nickname

"A truly fearsome beast, the great viper of Arcadia possesses strength and tenacity unmatched by any other predator on that world. It coils around its prey in a crushing embrace, then finishes its kill with a deadly poison. The warriors of the Clan I name Steel Viper show remarkable tenacity in battle and in their service to our great mission. May they continue to serve with unshakable faith, and may their opponents learn to fear the fangs of the Steel Vipers."
-- From Birth of a New Society: The Collected Writings of Nicholas Kerensky, Strana Mechty Press, 3025

Known Aliases

Around here you may see me referred to as "Steel" or "SV".

BSG-related Boards

Site	Role (if any)
Battlestar Central	Technical Advisor
GalacticaBS	Artist
Official Scifi Boards	"Stranger"
Mortal Storm	Commander/Wiki-helper

At GalacticaBS (and now at the Mortal Storm board) I'm known as "WikiViper" due to the abundance of Vipers there, and the fact that "Steel" and "SV" are both already taken.
