Welcome to Battlestar Wiki!

Welcome to the Wiki, Enabran. Tell us about yourself on your user page. We have a template that lets you put some information about yourself in a nice-looking box.

Battlestar Wiki is an encyclopedia on officially-licensed stories, aired episodes, and other products of the Battlestar universes. Make sure that your contributions fit Battlestar Wiki's purpose, avoiding what we aren't.

Our editing standards and conventions policies may differ from other wikis, especially in verb tense and voice, capitalization and the like. Please read this policy. We have an editing tutorial and wiki markup codes to help you.

Our policies on original research differ from places such as Wikipedia. We allow some research based on aired episode content, but don't allow speculation that isn't supported from episode events.

Battlestar Wiki's many projects help improve our content. Are you an Original Series fan? Help out in the Original Series Article Project. Non-English versions of Battlestar Wiki also need contributors, and helpers for our podcast transcriptions are also welcome. New projects should be brought to our Think Tank, where we hash out large-scale ideas before implementing them.

Any questions about an article can be entered on the article's talk page. General questions about the wiki can be brought to the Quorum or the administrators' noticeboard. To sign your posts on any talk page, just enter four tildes (~~~~)!

We look forward to your contributions to the community! --Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New 14:10, 4 July 2007 (CDT)

Es gibt schon eine deutsche Version auf dem deutschen Wiki. --Catrope(Talk to me or e-mail me) 14:24, 24 October 2007 (CDT)

Interwiki Links

I am debugging right now why the interwiki bot seems to have stopped working. It's very weird. Shane (T - C - E) 12:54, 15 January 2008 (CST)


The interwiki bot is still not working... --Enabran 17:06, 18 December 2012 (EST)

0005

Canon is only that 0005 is some kind of designation associated with the design displayed on the specification sheet, but we don't know that the number means "every model that sort of looks like the oBSG Cylon, regardless of how many smaller or larger changes are made by the VFX people". That would be fanfic, which is why I asked for that article to be renamed. For all we know, "Razor" might've featured 0007 and 0008, "Blood & Chrome" 0003 and so forth. That is why the number shouldn't be used unless we're discussing the specification sheet from the miniseries. --Graf Iblis 16:46, 18 December 2012 (EST)

  • ok... by the way: Graf Iblis is the german name. Are you speaking german? --Enabran 17:05, 18 December 2012 (EST)

Resurrecting the German-language Wiki

Hello Enabran! Glad to see that you're back! If you'd like, I can resurrect the German wiki so that you may continue you work on it. Just let me know what your thoughts and plans were. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 16:57, 27 June 2019 (PDT)

Hi Joe. My plan was and is to translate as much articles as possible from english to german. Before the wiki went down my Episode guide from Caprica was the best german episode guide in the web. I spent much time for Caprica. In the last 3 years a few people started to make their own wiki, but the german wiki from here had about 1000 pages, no other wiki is reaching that. If you bring it back, we are the top wiki again -- Enabran (talk) 23:14, 27 June 2019 (PDT)
I'll put it on my list. I'll endeavor to work on getting it back up over the weekend. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 09:14, 28 June 2019 (PDT)
still waiting for the resurrection :-( -- Enabran (talk) 02:15, 8 July 2019 (PDT)
Apologies, Colonial technology isn't as fast as Cylon... --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 07:25, 9 July 2019 (PDT)

Resurrected

The German Wiki is back online. There are a few things to tweak, but it should be functional and ready to edit. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 19:29, 18 July 2019 (PDT)

Hooray! Thank you. But I am in holiday now - not much time to do anything.
Just one more thing: Every time I want to edit something (or even a preview) I am asked a Question. Can you deactivate that for me? You know me since 10 years, I do not harm your project.
Links from english to german sites are working but no links from german sites to english sites are working. Where is the problem?
Hi Enabran, the main reason of the Templates issue is that the German wiki's locale is obviously configured as a en_US wiki in the LocalSettings.php file. It should be configured as de_DE and this should fix this issue. Regarding the Questy captcha, I have the same issue as well. Cheers! --LIMAFOX76 (talk) 02:35, 19 July 2019 (PDT)
Can I change it? And if yes - how?
Unfortunately you can't (neither can I). The locale is written inside the LocalSettings.php file (the configuration file for this very wiki) accessible from the wiki's server directory. Only the owner of the virtual machine (and delegate if any) can access it. --LIMAFOX76 (talk) 05:26, 19 July 2019 (PDT)

Captcha?

Hello Enabran! Wanted to see if you still saw the captchas whenever trying to edit pages on the English wiki? Also, I've made you a Chief here as well, in recognition for you work to date -- plus to give you a better tool-set on the English wiki, too! :) Let me know if you have any questions! Thank you! -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 19:05, 27 March 2020 (PDT)

Hi. They are gone! That's much more comfortable than before. Thank you for all :-) Enabran (talk) 00:45, 28 March 2020 (PDT)
Pleased to do so! -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 08:13, 28 March 2020 (PDT)
