RDM on Slashdot

A slashdot article brought this to my attention. He'll be giving a keynote at the 2006 Game Developers Conference (in San Jose from March 20-24) called "Building a Better Battlestar". Maybe they'll be nice and post a transcript. --Steelviper 10:07, 7 February 2006 (EST)

TheStreet.com Interview

Dean Stockwell will be back: that's not too big of a spoiler. We don't see ships in the Fleet due to budgetary constraints; he mentioned this before in the Bastille Day commentary: they broke the budget on that episode. My big concern with it was a clarification of Gina's motiviations.--The Merovingian ^{(C - E)} 20:35, 5 April 2006 (CDT)

Writer credits

I was wondering why most writer's profiles feature both the links to the episodes they've written (in chronological order) and a link to another page which mostly consists of... the links to the episodes they've written (in alphabetical order (AO)). Isn't that a bit redundant? I mean, is there at least another page which links to the AO pages? Well, at least I haven't found a page which lists all the writers (or even their episodes) which I think would be nice. Opinions? --Pedda 11:34, 29 August 2006 (CDT)

Some of what you are talking about may be the auto-generated category pages. They can seem redundant when viewed at their particular level, but sometimes an article will belong to multiple similar categories so that the category navigation will work correctly if you're navigating through the categories.

A list of all the writers can be found at Category:Writers, and a list of their episodes can be found by navigating from that category to Category:Episodes by writer (RDM) if you're looking for the new series. --Steelviper 12:10, 29 August 2006 (CDT)

Alright, thanks for the clarification and the links. I'm still new to the wiki system, so it takes some time to get used to the plethora of aspects. The Category:Writers is a good thing, but how do you access it? I've searched for phrases like "writer" or "writers" more than once. Due to the unchecked "search in categories" box - which is standard, I guess - the page just can't be found... --Pedda 13:43, 29 August 2006 (CDT)
