Battlestar Wiki talk:Think Tank/Hybrid births

Appropriateness of this Item

I don't believe the champion of the item understands the use of TT items. This process isn't for research of speculation, sourced or unsourced. It could bear the review of existing or creation of new articles relating to the question, but my cursory look appears to believe this is a question that cannot be answered without more aired information. Another TT proposal by the same contributor appears to be similar in intent. I will be dropping a note on the user's page with more information but won't do anything to this or the second TT items until we have some more thoughts and what to do. --Spencerian 02:33, 22 August 2007 (CDT)

Thanks. :-) Anyway, as you said, I don't think we have much information on this either way. There seems to be the assumption that Cylon women bear children exclusively, while human women seeded by Male Cylons will bear male children, which I find to be a major assumption since we have only two hybrids and not enough data to prove or disprove this theory.

As for the use of the Think Tank to propose these things... My thoughts on the subject, as it stands right now, is that this kind of thing is permissible here. It may not be what we're used to, since we've used this more for "behind-the-scenes" issues, but what the user's suggesting is, at some level, a change in certain things about the wiki, though they are minor in comparison to what's been brought to the Think Tank before. -- Joe Beaudoin ^{So say we all - Donate - Sanctuary Wiki — New} 02:42, 22 August 2007 (CDT)

It's not completely out of line here, but these questions are very speculative in any case, even when asking official sources. Knowing past answers in OC, they aren't exhaustive as this will probably need. Brad points out some small things here and there, some answers can be long, but he rarely spills all the beans. Especially not when it comes to the identies of Cylons.

But since the "how" is "asking someone from the show", we don't need a TT proposal for this. It can be asked on OC, and when/if an answer comes - which can take a while - it can be discussed on an article's talk page. --Serenity 02:54, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
