Transferred my basic bio from Wikipedia to here. To all of us BSG addicts: Praise the Lords of Kobol and pass the munitions... Spencerian 15:52, 14 Jul 2005 (EDT)
Annililated three major stub pages today. Guess I'm all hyped up for Season 2's premiere today. Stop me before I de-stub again... Spencerian 14:51, 15 Jul 2005 (EDT)
- Destroy All Humans!... erm, I mean stubs. :-) Yes, please keep on nuking all the stubs. Thanks! :-) -- Joe Beaudoin 17:51, 15 Jul 2005 (EDT)
Remember, Folks, This is Not Wikipedia
This is just my understanding, but BSG Wiki is not Wikipedia. As such, as we enter factual information about the episode, we also may add opinion, some commentary, and speculation as appropriate. This is definiitely different from Wikipedia where such Personal Point of View comments are not acceptable. One thing that we must remember not to do is to get all bent out of shape and delete an opposing view simply because we have a different interpretation of events. One suggestion is to add a counterpoint with sufficient reasons or evidence that support your view. This is fiction, and I doubt that RDM will explain everything (where's the fun if he did that?), so we're left to figure things out on our own. So, don't hack and slash, but if you find my posts (or others) are just too wordy or prose-ridden, do what you feel is right, of course... Spencerian 17:45, 4 Aug 2005 (EDT)
Episode Project Page?
Heya. I heard you were particularly active in writing the episode articles. If so, you might consider collaborating with some other users that are, too, to create a project page for episodes. Peter Farago created a Characters Project Page for better planning and communication. I can't speak from experience, but it might be good to make note of various conventions or templates or whatever used for episode articles. If you decide to put this together, I made a Project Page category so we could keep track of the various convention & template pages. I don't mean to tell anyone what to do. Just thought I'd draw your attention to this. --Day 07:18, 31 August 2005 (EDT)
- Hi, Day. Thanks for letting me know of this tool. I'm more of a major article content writer than article creator, so I've usually not done much in page formatting and creation. I've generally followed the lead of Peter and others who obviously have stronger wiki formatting skills, then apply or update any new material on pages that use their templates. Collectively the wiki has improved on formatting and templates, but yes, many early character bios must be cleaned up, and I'll get to Peter's character project page and your general project page to lend a hand. Same for the episode pages as applicable, although most of the second season pages appear to be in fair shape. Excellent idea. Spencerian 12:03, 31 August 2005 (EDT)
Ellen Tigh
I have a question for you concerning your recent edit to Ellen Tigh at the bottom of Battlestar_Wiki_talk:Standards_and_Conventions. --Peter Farago 22:33, 13 September 2005 (EDT)
Mercury-Class Battlestar
Since we have gone back and forth once, I wanted to talk to you about it here. Stating that a battlestar is a Mercury-Class Battlestar, even if it happens to be pegasus, is not a spoiler. It is unnecessary to be in spoiler tags. We don't state anything else about it.
- Okay, but would that be of plausible interest to anyone who explicitly did not want to have that episode spoiled? It's not as if the Mercury class has ever been mentioned before. --Peter Farago 17:26, 21 September 2005 (EDT)
