Welcome to the Wiki, DrWho42. Tell us about yourself on [[User:DrWho42|your user page]].
 
Battlestar Wiki is an encyclopedia on '''officially-licensed stories, aired episodes, and other products of the ''Battlestar'' universes.''' Make sure that your contributions fit [[Battlestar Wiki:What is Battlestar Wiki|Battlestar Wiki's purpose]], avoiding [[BW:NOT|what we aren't]].
 
Our [[BW:SAC|editing standards and conventions policies]] may differ from other wikis, especially in verb tense and voice, capitalization and the like. '''Please read this policy.''' We have [[BW:TUT|an editing tutorial]] and [[BW:MARK|wiki markup codes]] to help you.
 
Our policies on [[w:Original research|original research]] differ from places such as Wikipedia. We allow [[BW:CJ#Derived Content|some research based on aired episode content]], but don't allow [[BW:FANW|speculation that isn't supported from episode events]].
 
Battlestar Wiki's [[Battlestar Wiki:Project List|many projects]] help improve our content. Are you a [[Original Series]] fan? Help out in the [[Battlestar Wiki:Original Series Article Development Project|Original Series Article Project]]. [[Battlestar Wiki:Translation Project|Non-English versions of Battlestar Wiki]] also need contributors, and helpers for our [[BW:POD|podcast transcriptions]] are also welcome. New projects should be brought to our [[BW:TANK|Think Tank]], where we hash out large-scale ideas before implementing them.
 
Any questions about an article can be entered on the article's talk page. General questions about the wiki can be brought to [[Battlestar Wiki:Wikipedian Quorum|the Quorum]] or [[Battlestar Wiki:Administrators' noticeboard|the administrators' noticeboard]].  To sign your posts on any talk page, just enter four tildes (~<!---->~~<!---->~)!

Hi. I have deleted your article on Battlesev Galaxative as is is against the policty of the wiki re linking. See [[Battlestar Wiki:What Battlestar Wiki is not]]. "IS NOT a repository of Web links. We are not Google or the IMDB, although we do link to them from time to time. Yes, we do have links to other websites, but they are normally related to a topic covered by this Wiki". I have moved your link to the webcomic to the Fan sites page so the link still exists but there is no dedicated page for it. If you have any questions please leave a message on my talk page. --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 03:24, 18 April 2007 (CDT)
 
== Categories ==
 
You don't need to add the categories manually. When you set <code>gender=male</code> and <code>countrycode=US</code> in your {{tl|User Data}}, they'll appear automatically. --[[User:Catrope|Catrope]]<sup>([[User talk:Catrope|Talk to me]] or [[Special:Emailuser/Catrope|e-mail me]])</sup> 03:44, 3 May 2007 (CDT)

Joe gave you move privileges, so you should see the move button above pages now. In case, you know, you need to move stuff. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 12:47, 22 May 2007 (CDT)
 
==Pat Adrien Dorval Revert Move==
While the imdb credits him as Adrien Dorval, in the credits of Battlestar Galactica he has been referred to by his full name Pat Adrien Dorval. Official sources override the imdb. --[[User:Mercifull|Mercifull]] <sup>([[User talk:Mercifull|Talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Mercifull|Contribs]])</sup> 13:27, 22 May 2007 (CDT)

== Whoa, Cowboy! ==
 
Hey there! That [[List of Former Star Trek Cast and Crew]] article is pretty darn detailed, but the [[BW:CON|Concision Fairy]] thinks it would be best not to list ''every single thing'' that many of the prolific cast and crew have done for that show. It makes reading the article very difficult, and, as you know, there's [[memoryalpha:Main Page|another wiki]] for that sort of thing, so the article has gone off from Battlestar Wiki's need-to-know. The Fairy truncated Ron Moore's and Michael Taylor's entries, but the article could be shorter, or maybe, cite more of their most popular work that illustrates each writer or director's quality work. I convinced the Fairy not to bring out the double-bladed tree ax, asking her to wait until you or others made the finer concision so the article maintains its quality (the Fairy is not a neat fairy -- she's watched too many episodes of ''The Sopranos'' and enjoys all that whacking.). :) --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 11:18, 15 July 2007 (CDT)

== Oberst Screenshot ==
 
Here is the screenshot. The book is on the left. You will probably have to see the image in full resolution to read it clearly. There is a lot of glare from the flashlight. If it is not clear enough, I can try to get a better one.

== Thanks for the welcome! ==
 
I've created [[User:ConradPino]] page which leads to my personal WWW site. I enjoy [[User:DrWho42|your user page]] a bit. Would you mind elaborating on your [http://en.battlestarwiki.org/wiki/User:DrWho42#cite_note-1 References No. 2] regarding the "other" wiki? Thanks in advance. &ndash; [[User:ConradPino|ConradPino]] 01:43, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
 
== Help ==
 
Hello Dr, and thank you for your welcome message.
 
I need your help. I sent a message to Shane for the same thing, but I'm not sure he's the one I must contact.
 
As you know, I started to update the french part of the wiki. I updated the episode list (not the template, only the wiki page).  I removed/added accents, capital letters etc... for a perfect typography. Doing that, I broke several episode links... and I'm unable to rename their pages since I am not an administrator.
 
Could you please give me the rights to rename (move) pages so that I can fix all these broken links ?
 
Thank you!
