Articles are to be listed in chronological order from oldest. Perhaps the largest article purge for this project was:

  • A whole bunch of articles up for deletion

See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cylon War - a whole bunch of BSG articles are up for deletion. 76.66.192.91 (talk) 04:43, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Kept

Merged or redirected

  • There are currently 3 versions of Boxey out there Boxey, Boxey (Battlestar Galactica) and Captain Troy all started in Nov. '06 with in a few days/hours of each other. I currently have nominated Boxey and Boxey (BSG) to be merged together, as the pages redupe info and the are both stubs. I would encourage a full Boxey merge to help the character to still have a page, as currently there is a wave of AfD for the fictional genres. -66.109.248.114 (talk) 03:33, 9 March 2008 (UTC).[reply]
The BSG copy is a dab page. Merge the TOS Boxey page into a list of minor characters, which we currently don't have for TOS or 1980. We also are missing Lt. Dillon, a main character from 1980... 70.55.84.89 (talk) 05:28, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I think 2003 reimagining should remain, and fix the other article so there is less repetition, instead have them refer to 2003 article. I also think a 1978 article should be written as the complement to the 2003 article, and similarly fix the movie, original TV series and 1980 articles. 76.66.193.90 (talk) 12:41, 9 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Since there were no objections after a week, I performed the merge. --BlueSquadronRaven 17:24, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removed

The result was delete. If the matter is closed, shouldn't such should be reflected here? -- Harshael (talk) 23:34, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Right, right now the old page merely redirects to the External links section of the Battlestar Galactica article. -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. Mail Me 01:45, 18 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the heads-up. Skomorokh 05:31, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Episode list redesign

Want to some feedback on this episodes list redesign I have made in order to let the episode list better match other DVD shows like List of Stargate SG-1 episodes or List of Lost episodes. Also need to add Blu-ray releases, but not sure which release date to include. Would appreicate any feedback you can give me. Its located here User:Mollsmolyneux/Sandbox/BSG Episode List. Thanks --Mollsmolyneux (talk) 13:21, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and created that article. Any help with editing it is appreciated.--DrWho42 (talk) 09:43, 21 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Updates to TV#MOS

I'm not sure how many people monitor WP:MOSTV or even WP:TV (the basic WikiProject for all of us), but we've been trying to get some feedback on additions to the TV Manual of Style. It largely has to do with the inclusion of "Overview" tables at the start of the page, the order in which season lists are presented (currently, there is no concrete order), and what is considered too much info for DVDs (i.e. should we be placing every detail about the box set in the article, from each interview to the aspect ratio, or should be keep it more generalized). Please see discussion at WT:MOSTV#Updates to the MOS. Thank you.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 22:11, 29 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Doctor Zee

Fake reference contributing much false content "DK Eyewitness Travel Guide: Beyond Caprica"

All of the citations regarding the character of the 12 colonies refer to a book called "DK Eyewitness Travel Guide :Beyond Caprica by Bob Harris, DK publishing 2010, ISBN 9780756673116".

I have researched and can find no existence of such a book, even using the ISBN number. It appears to be a joke, playing on the many travel books that start with "DK Eyewitness Travel Guide to: (fill in the blank"). But I can find no evidence of such a book being written in this series about a fictional place.

I propose that any content attributed to this non-existent book be removed from all of that Battlestar Wikis. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.92.169.22 (talk) 05:01, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The book can be found here, I have one myself and the content in this article is valid. -- Philly boy92 (talk) 15:58, 28 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Stub type

Greetings! A stub template or category which you created has been nominated for renaming or deletion at Wikipedia:Stub types for deletion. The stub type most likely doesn't meet Wikipedia requirements for a stub type, through failure to meet standards relating to the name, scope, current stub hierarchy or likely size, as explained at Wikipedia:Stub. Please feel free to make any comments at WP:SFD regarding this stub type, and in future, please consider proposing new stub types first at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals! This message is boilerplate, left here as a courtesy, and should not be considered personal in nature.

Questions?

I've removed about a dozen instances of sections entitled "Questions" (and a few Notes as well,) from a load of series 1 articles. They're inappropriate for wikipedia, both in tone and content. Many of them looked as though they'd be more at home in a pub quiz than an encyclopedia. Chaheel Riens (talk) 16:27, 21 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Blood and Chrome

So... Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome has started airing... project needs sprucing up to account for that. -- 70.24.186.245 (talk) 15:44, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
