Battlestar Wiki:Featured articles/Debate for June 2006

From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide
  • Galactica (RDM)
    • A good article succsessfully rescued from the abyss by group effort several month ago. Could currently use some minor reformatting - the "running tallies" probably belong in their own article, rather than in the footnotes, and the "fleet details" section seems a little precious. --Peter Farago 15:08, 3 June 2006 (CDT)
      • Well jeez I thought the running tallies are what made it so good.--The Merovingian (C - E) 15:43, 3 June 2006 (CDT)
  • Computers
    • Very detailed about the information given about the computer systems. A+ article. --Shane (T - C - E) 14:58, 3 June 2006 (CDT)
      • I'm not sure if people would be very interested in this. Compared to like "Number Six" "Adama" or "Galactica"--The Merovingian (C - E) 15:44, 3 June 2006 (CDT)
      • A+++!!!!!1!1!!!!!11!!!11onethree WOULD ATICKLE AGN11!! *wink* --Day (Talk - Admin) 23:54, 3 June 2006 (CDT)
    • I can see where Merv is coming from on this. It's a very tech-centric piece, for a show that's not supposed to be as much about the tech. The article is definitely sharp (I like the new table layout of the pics with the text), and appeals to me as a computer scientist, but I realize that not everbody is interested in computers. That being said, I can't think of any "character" articles off the top of my head that stand out. --Steelviper 09:12, 6 June 2006 (CDT)
  • Language in the Twelve Colonies
    • This was originally one of mine from last August, when I was more active on the content side. I've always been proud of it for being both comprehensive and concise, and have defended both aspects of the article vigorously. The article currently needs a link to a credible online source of the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, and would also be a good place to discuss ship names in the colonial fleet, as I recently proposed on the Quorum. --Peter Farago 15:08, 3 June 2006 (CDT)
