Note: This is not a help page for problems with Battlestar Wiki.

See the Battlestar Wiki:Wikipedian Quorum for Wikiquote-specific questions. Before posting a question here, you may also want to see if one of these pages can better answer your question:


The Battlestar Wiki Reference desk serves the same function as a library reference desk. Do you have a specific question that you want answered by volunteers at Wikiquote? Ask below!

How to ask a question

  • Please give questions a meaningful title so you'll be more likely to get a meaningful answer.
  • Be specific and clarify your question, describing specifically what you'd like answered.
  • Please sign your question by typing --~~~~ (that's two hyphens and four tildes) at the end. This will stamp the date and time and your user ID on your posting. (You can also sign --anon.)
  • Please do not list your e-mail address, as questions aren't normally answered by e-mail. Also, be aware that the content on Battlestar Wiki is extensively copied to many websites, and so making your e-mail address public here may make it very public throughout the Internet.
  • Please check back for updates occasionally. A complete answer may be developed over a period of days.
  • To continue a question, edit your question section (by clicking the [edit] link on right side of its header line). Please do not start multiple sections about the same topic.
  • Please remember that readers of all ages visit this page.
  • Please avoid using all capital letters; not only do they make a question harder to read, but they are often interpreted as impolite or shouting.
  • Questions will be answered by humans, not by a Cylon (or computer). This page is not a search engine.



How to answer a question

  • Please be thorough, providing as much of the answer as you are able.
  • Be concise, not terse. Please write in a clear and easily understood manner. Keep your answer within the scope of the question as stated.
  • Link to articles on Wikipedia or a Wikipedia-like site which may have further information relevant to the question.
  • The Reference desk is not a soapbox. If you wish to argue a particular viewpoint, please do so on an appropriate talk page.
