Wikipedian

Um, why am I no longer a wikipedian? Durandal 08:33, 16 August 2007 (CDT)

Because we decided that we are not really Wikipedians and so the category was changed to "Galactipedian". That happened in June already. I just got around to changing the users who added the category by hand and so weren't affected by the automatic change. --Serenity 08:35, 16 August 2007 (CDT)
Duly noted. Meanwhile, as I happen to be (at least in theory) a wikipedian and a galactipedian, I will be re-adding the former. As a side note, it might be a good idea to acutally use the summary field in such cases, as it cuts down on the "HUH?" moments... TheEverRampant Durandal 08:40, 16 August 2007 (CDT)
Yeah, but it wasn't just you I changed as Special:Recentchanges shows. So not making an edit summary for all was just laziness :(
I understand that you might see yourself as a Wikipedian in the sense as being on the actual Wikipedia, but that's not really what the category was about. It was just users of this wiki and merely used the Wikipedia name. I deleted the category, but I can restore without all the sub categories, so people who think they are true Wikipedians can use it. --Serenity 08:45, 16 August 2007 (CDT)
Laziness gets the best of all of us at times.... meh. Meanwhile, the whole reason I ever added that tag was because I thought that was what that catagory was about. Considering my lack of activity recently, amongst other factors, I'm not going to ask/demand that a catagory be created solely on my whim. Durandal 08:56, 16 August 2007 (CDT)
Well, there was at least one other person who likes the idea of all wikis falling under the "Wikipedia" header. I won't restore all the sub categories, so it's no hassle. That there is some confusion about its meaning just shows that doing something about it was a good idea. And while some people are also Wikipedia editors, not all who added the category are. The intended meaning was more "Battlestar Wiki users". --Serenity 09:03, 16 August 2007 (CDT)

Troy --> Troy (1980) conversion

The next time you do such a conversion, it would be nice if you marked the edits as minor and specified [[Troy]] --> [[Troy (1980]] in the edit summary. That may seem like a lot of work, but if you have any browser at all you'll only have to type it out in full once. This little addition makes these trivial changes much easier to spot in Special:Recentchanges. --Catrope(Talk to me or e-mail me) 15:55, 19 August 2007 (CDT)

See, above. I'm just lazy :(
But to be honest, once you checked one edit with "diff", you know what the others are all about, because they all have the same changed characters. So I don't see that it's a big mystery. You are right on the major/minor thing though. --Serenity 16:09, 19 August 2007 (CDT)
And you're right about the summary thing, although most users are just as lazy as you are ;) --Catrope(Talk to me or e-mail me) 16:15, 19 August 2007 (CDT)

language confusion

aussi is without the "e", but thanks, I'll keep it in mind ;) --Aerelon 10:22, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

Merde! I was just kidding, by the way. There is nothing wrong with talking/typing in another language on one's talk page :) --Serenity 10:27, 27 August 2007 (CDT)
As long as the adressee (i.e. the owner of the talk page) understands what's written, it's fine by me. --Catrope(Talk to me or e-mail me) 12:44, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

Season 1 / Season 2

Look at where they are already. Seven weeks and nobody noticed xD. --Catrope(Talk to me or e-mail me) 16:25, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

Not even the US airdate gets updated regularly (just noticed that earlier). No one cares about re-runs :) --Serenity 16:27, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

Archive...

I just noticed that those pages are not being archive. I am trying to figure it out. :) Shane (T - C - E) 19:34, 4 September 2007 (CDT)

No problem. For now I can deal with it :)
Btw, while you are at it, there is also an error on Talk:The Twelve Colonies (RDM) with some very old stuff still there. --Serenity 05:22, 5 September 2007 (CDT)
