Welcome to Battlestar Wiki!
Welcome to the Wiki, Jetstorm316. Feel free to tell us about yourself on your user page. Before you get started on other edits, please read the Battlestar Wiki:Standards and Conventions, which details the policies we use in editing pages (this differs from many other wikis in consistent use of phrasing, abbreviations, format, and the like).
Thanks for your rapid submissions&mdash we welcome enthusiastic contributors. While not always easy, it's important to search around a bit before creating new articles. While the patches you've uploaded are interesting, the new Colonial arm patches and insignia article you created conflicts in part with the existing Military Ranks (RDM) and Military Ranks (TOS) articles, which already have much of this information. As an administrator, I need to mark your article as a candidate for deletion, but I strongly encourage you to move the relevant patches to the appropriate Military Ranks articles. We'll keep your page up for a time while you transfer the relevant information. Keep in mind that your uploaded pictures (unless they are actual screenshots or other Universal/Sci-Fi-distributed information) must have a source and be allowed here under our Creative Commons license or under fair use guidelines. If the items are likenesses to items that have a de facto copyright (such as the patches), these should be OK under fair use. You may want to read the project article on official and verifiable sources as well.
Also, if you have any questions or suggestions you wish to offer, please feel free to do so either on your user talk page, the Wikipedian Quorum or Administrators' noticeboard. Remember to sign your posts on any talk pages using four tildes (~~~~)! We look forward to your contributions to the community! --Spencerian 09:56, 20 February 2006 (EST)
