Anne Lockhart

Nice additions to the Anne Lockhart page. Are you a big fan to know all that information? --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 11:35, 24 July 2006 (CDT)

I'm webmaster of Anne Lockhart's official website. I just copied the biography I typed there. I can do the same for Terry Carter and Noah Hathaway. I don't have any Wiki knowledge, I barely know how to copy/paste stuff within Wiki. I'll leave it up to others to add the right Wiki links/tags in my text. --MAD 12:29, 24 July 2006 (CDT)

Welcome! --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 13:08, 24 July 2006 (CDT)

Just be sure what what you are copy and pasting is allowed and not copywrited. You cant just copy and paste any old text from any website without either permission or the correct license. --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 03:08, 25 July 2006 (CDT)

I know, but I'm webmaster of Terry Carter's, Anne Lockhart's and Noah Hathaway's official site (and even Felix Silla's, Maren Jensen's and Herb Jefferson's but I haven't written biographies for them yet), plus me or my friend Mike wrote this ourselves. Mike and I are building a Galactica site for all series where we'll publish all our interviews. We're in contact with 150+ cast and crew of the orignal 1978 series. I'm good friends with most of the main cast (hence the fact I'm doing their websites). Some even stayed at my home. Of Galactica 1980 I'm in good contact with Robyn Douglass (Jamie Hamilton) by e-mail and she has family here in the Netherlands as well. I'm working on my contacts in the Galactica 2003 series, but the new gang is very different. Younger, life in the fast lane (always busy!), millions of fans and therefor far more private and herder to reach. But I do have good contact with some. We're e-mailing and calling with Aaron Douglass and just interviewed him 1.5 hours over the phone for our new website. Next week we're interviewing several others (Kandyse McClure, Nicki Clyne). I do appreciate websites like these very much. They're a good source of information (which is growing and not dead like most Galactica sites!), just like our website will be of course. I don't see it as competition, we're focussing very much on the people involved in all series and publishing interviews we did, it will be completely different. Some of the gueststars we've interviewed of the original 1978 series never told their Galactica adventure before to anyone. We think fans will be interested to hear/read this. Wouldn't you like to know how it was to work with Fred Astaire? Or what the Borellian Nomen are up to nowadays? Well, we know! :) --MAD 04:56, 25 July 2006 (CDT)

Thats great! I dont have any problems with you copying stuff from your own sites. I was merely making sure that you dont just take stuff willy nilly from other places :) I look forward to seeing your additions --Mercifull ^{(Talk/Contribs)} 05:33, 25 July 2006 (CDT)

I've add a "small" piece of text for Terry Carter (I tried not to destroy too much of the links/images that were already there), doing Noah Hathaway next.--MAD 07:16, 25 July 2006 (CDT)
