<p>Automated import from old BattlestarWiki</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>{{ttp}}<br /> <br /> === Cite Templates ===<br /> <br /> We do a lot of &quot;citeing&quot; outside sources and I think we need to have a standard in the format in which they appear. Since I been doing lots of citing on Wikipedia, they use special templates that keep everything intact and properly formated in MLA or what ever style the author would like to use. I am suggestion that we adopt some of the templates from [[Wikipedia:Category:Citation templates|Category:Citation templates]] and use them here. Now I am not suggestion all of them but these are a few I think we should consider.<br /> <br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite book|Template:Cite book]]<br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite email|Template:Cite email]]<br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite episode|Template:Cite episode]] (Would be modified to work with BSG Episodes)<br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite news|Template:Cite news]]<br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite online journal|Template:Cite online journal]]<br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite podcast|Template:Cite podcast]] (Modified to work with our [[BW:POD]] project of course.)<br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite press release|Template:Cite press release]]<br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite video game|Template:Cite video game]]<br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite visual|Template:Cite visual]]<br /> * [[Wikipedia:Template:Cite web|Template:Cite web]] (The big one)<br /> <br /> We would have to go through all the pages and just update the &lt;nowiki&gt;&lt;ref&gt;&lt;/nowiki&gt; tags with the template inside of it. We would go through the pages as we have time. There are a lot of page and this really is just to standard the citing so it&#039;s no big priority, but it should be done if we were ever going to &quot;publish&quot; this site on a CD.<br /> <br /> {{ttf}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Think Tank proposals|{{SUBPAGENAME}}]]</div>
