Welcome to Battlestar Wiki!

Welcome to the Wiki, OM. Feel free to tell us about yourself on your user page. Before you get started on other edits, please read the Standards and Conventions, which details the policies we use in editing pages (this differs from many other wikis in its particular use of verb tense, abbreviations, formatting, and the like). If you need help in learning how to use the MediaWiki tools supported here, you can check out the tutorial and the wiki markup code pages for assistance.

Please read the articles "What is Battlestar Wiki" and "What Battlestar Wiki is Not." This important information details what contributions are acceptable in this encyclopedia.

We encourage you to participate in any projects on Battlestar Wiki, which work to enhance a particular subject or extension of the wiki. These include the Original Series Article Development Project and several language translations of Battlestar Wiki. If you have a new idea for a new project, visit the Think Tank, where we hash out large-scale ideas before implementing them.

Also, if you have any questions or suggestions you wish to offer, please feel free to do so either on an article's talk page that's relevant to the subject, the Wikipedian Quorum or the Administrators' noticeboard. Remember to sign your posts on any talk pages using four tildes (~~~~)!

We look forward to your contributions to the community! --Shane (T - C - E) 23:10, 3 September 2006 (CDT)

Cites to "Cyrannus"

You have anything to cite this information? --Shane (T - C - E) 23:52, 3 September 2006 (CDT)

I've tagged as requiring citations the things I couldn't trivially verify, sentence-by-sentnce; ideally, a few tags can be replaced by one source. You certainly seem knowledgeable on the topic, and I hope you take the time to contribute sources. --CalculatinAvatar(C-T) 02:58, 4 September 2006 (CDT)

NASA

I'm not going to mention your name, but are you the same "OM" that worked for NASA and now a news consultant? --FrankieG 14:13, 4 September 2006 (CDT)

[Insert Shocked At Absurdity Look]

...BWHAHAAAAHH! No, I'm not Jim Oberg. I'm OM, a space history colleague of Jim Oberg, tho. But then again, all of us on sci.space.history *are* Jim Oberg, according to the anti-NASA trolls. Good guess, tho, and besides, if I *were* JimO, do you think I'd have gotten hammered for that overkill on cites?
