Welcome to Battlestar Wiki![edit]
Greetings, Frylock86, and welcome to Battlestar Wiki! I'm pleased to tell you that you have full editing privileges on every wiki in the Battlestar Wiki network. I hope you enjoy your stay with us and am looking forward to your contributions to the Wiki! Why not begin by telling us a bit about yourself on your own user page?
As you may already know, Battlestar Wiki covers all the Battlestar Galactica series from past to present, in addition to authorized merchandise. Presently, we don't cover fan fiction, but our sister-site, Battlestar Pegasus, does so. We're also not a discussion site, although we do have an ever-growing Battlestar Forum where people can discuss the various shows and non-BSG topics as well!
To get started on the wiki, we suggest that you check out our tutorial, experiment in the sandbox (a test editing area for those learning wiki code), and review some of our basic policies (which have important differences from other SF wikis). For some general questions and answers about the navigation and operation of the Wiki, check out the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).
Of course, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, you are more than welcome to bring them up at the Chiefs' noticeboard (which is frequented by the administrators of the Wiki) and at the Galactipedians' Quorum (which is the hub for contributors, who are called "Galactipedians").
Furthermore, if you don't wish to see the ads, then please consider upgrading your account to a paid membership, which costs only $10 USD a year and helps support the wiki financially. Becoming a member also entitles you to our raffle, where you can win gift cards, merchandise, and other prizes! We think this is very cool, and we hope you do as well!
Thank you for joining us! Hope to see you soon! --Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate - Battlestar Pegasus 18:07, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Gemenon Picture[edit]
Is there a reason you think the sun in the picture of Gemenon from orbit is Helios Delta, instead of Helios Alpha? -- Noneofyourbusiness 18:43, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
I have responded[edit]
See my user page for the response, and please do not change any of the pages to reflect your position until we have cleared this up. Even if it were a Valkyrie type, it may not be the same one. Phalanx-a-pedian 21:27, 17 November 2012 (EST)
Osiris as a battlestar?[edit]
Frylock86, I reverted the changes you made today claiming that Osiris is a battlestar based only on a uniform patch. If only the word "battlestar" can be made out on the patch and nothing else is legible (particularly the word "Osiris"), then it's only circumstantial evidence at best. It's just as likely that the producers recycled uniform patches from the TV series as a cost-cutting measure, assuming that very few viewers would notice such a tiny detail on screen. Throughout BSG, battlestars always had a distinctive basic design: elongated flight pods on the port and starboard sides of the ship. Osiris does not have these. Even though it seems to be capable of doing many of the things battlestars can do, that doesn't make it a battlestar. If you can upload a screen capture of a patch that clearly shows the words "battlestar" and "Osiris," then it would be safe to make the change. -- BlueResistance 15:47, 19 November 2012 (EST)
