Verification
Articles that have been worked on, but need verification before crossing out as completed.
- Arts and Entertainment of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - tucana singers, gambling
- Answaw - picture plus snippet (woman in elevator right after Starbuck is busted by Athena and Cassie in the chancery)
- Battlestar (TOS) - added pic
- Blonde Taurus - seems pertinent enough for an article of her own...
- Centurion (TOS) - cite execution?
- Cylons (TOS) - most of the mythology is layed out in this ep
- Added bit about "most practical form" as well as the "bigger, stronger, interchangable parts"
- Defensive shields - pics added
- Fashions of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - more screencaps and descriptions of carillon patrons, maybe add the council's dress (especially the more diverse opening council)
- Gold Cluster - to be awarded to Apollo, Starbuck, and Boomer by Sire Uri, the military's highest honor
- Government of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - government, Quorum of Twelve (TOS), concept of referendum on Carillon (disarmament issue)
- Imperious Leader - one of the main eps for this character
- Languatron - I've got a screencap of this handy translator.
- Launch tubes (TOS) - where the Vipers are launched through
- Rapid transport trolly - we should probably note the trolly transporter that the pilots use to get to the launch bay.
- Society of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - society, such as religion (Otori sect)
- Technology of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - Languatron, etc.
- Tucana singers - article creation plus picture

Verification
- ale - swiped for the party
- Battle of Otarsis Quadrant - the battle resulting in the destruction of the listening post, so that Salik can land his team on the asteroid
- Council Security - noted that the blackshirts make an appearance here
- Cryogen tube - where you stick the sickies (until you can figure out how to heal them)
- Cylon listening post - needs a second verification
- decontamination room - looks good, but needs at least a second verification
- Epsilon Quadrant - quadrant where Lucy says the fleet's headed -- and since they're headed towards the void, Kobol's gotta be here too
- isoldin - something that the sickies get
- Otarsis Quadrant asteroid - an article about the unnamed asteroid where the disease comes from, since it's important to the ep
- Otarsis Quadrant - the area where the asteroid is located, judging from Lucifer's comments to Baltar
- Outer marker - where Jolly and Boomer are forced to hold position until cleared to land
- Pressure suit - complete with pic
- Probe 1 - should we even bother with a pic?
- I'd lean against it. It's kind of like Bootlegger 137. Maybe just classify it a "terminology" article?
- Probe 2 - same as Probe 1
- throne room - the area from where Baltar and the Imperious Leader command, at least in the beginning of the series
Lost Planet of the Gods, Part II

Verification
- Adama's Medallion: noted its use in the marriage ceremony
- Intercept 1, Intercept 2, and Intercept 3
War of the Gods
- Iblis' ship - Picture and article done. Verification needed.
Fire in Space
- Uniforms (TOS) - Need to add the fire clothing and space suits depicted in this ep.
- Galactica (TOS) - We can use some of the info in this episode to expand a bit on the layout.
General
We should probably do a series of articles similar to the RDM "Twelve Colonies" series that Peter started. Here's an idea:
- Fashions of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - Covers the clothing and other "bling bling", since it's pretty unique.
- Arts and Entertainment of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - Good place for triad, pyramid, and minor games we see in the series (in particular this would be a great place for those games we see in "Fire in Space")
- Technology of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - tech and all that
- Government of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - government, Quorum of Twelve (TOS), and all that jazz
- Society of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - society, such as religion
- Life Sciences of the Twelve Colonies (TOS) - Covers the medical and psychological aspects of the Colonies, in progress
Additionally...
- List of Warriors - analog to List of pilots
- Unnamed Battlestar Galactica personnel (TOS) - analog to Unnamed Battlestar Galactica personnel
Pictures needed for...
- Blue Squadron
- Military Ranks (TOS) - could use some color
