I was working the [[Special:Disambiguations|Disambiguations Pages]], and I noticed that there are over 100 Battlestar links that go to the disambig page. I'd estimate over 95 percent of them intend to go to Original battlestar (RDM). Since there's already a disambig line at the top of that article, I propose that we change this page to a redirect to that one (after we redirect any pages that are intended to go to the TOS or video game spots). If there was equal amounts of content being added to all namespaces, I would argue for equality (and the disambig page), but since most of the new content being written will be about RDM (especially with how much progress has been made on the TOS pages) I think the average user would benefit from a redirect. I'll go ahead and try to identify and fix the TOS and video game links, but hold off on a Viper-like disambig purge until it is determined whether or not we'll redirect. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 09:40, 18 January 2006 (EST) | I was working the [[Special:Disambiguations|Disambiguations Pages]], and I noticed that there are over 100 Battlestar links that go to the disambig page.

:Sounds good to me. Same is true for "Galactica", which has a similar redirect with disambig line at the top of the RDM page for those lost. We know that the wiki is weighted to the new show, so it makes logical since to get to the current info first. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 15:20, 18 January 2006 (EST) | |||

Change Disambig to Redirect
I was working the Disambiguations Pages, and I noticed that there are over 100 Battlestar links that go to the disambig page. I'd estimate over 95 percent of them intend to go to Original battlestar (RDM). Since there's already a disambig line at the top of that article, I propose that we change this page to a redirect to that one (after we redirect any pages that are intended to go to the TOS or video game spots). If there was equal amounts of content being added to all namespaces, I would argue for equality (and the disambig page), but since most of the new content being written will be about RDM (especially with how much progress has been made on the TOS pages) I think the average user would benefit from a redirect. I'll go ahead and try to identify and fix the TOS and video game links, but hold off on a Viper-like disambig purge until it is determined whether or not we'll redirect. --Steelviper 09:40, 18 January 2006 (EST)
