A collection of OR, SYNTH and plot regurgitation; refs are to wiki articles and a busted glossary link. delete. Jack Merridew 04:30, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Science fiction-related deletion discussions. -- Jack Merridew 04:34, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment So what's changed since the first nomination? Is it just that BSG is now off the air? Jclemens (talk) 05:01, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
 * : I looked and saw that not much has changed; the article 2 ½ years ago was also a heap of unsourced, non-notable OR/SYNTH/PLOT that should have been deleted then. Oh, well. Let's get it right this time. Jack Merridew 05:21, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Trim down and merge to List of Battlestar Galactica objects. People will come looking for this information, but the article as it stands has the problem of being a plot recap. A streamlined paragraph will convey the relevant information nicely. -- saberwyn 23:09, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect to the list article per Saberwyn. It might live as a stub, but there's enough stuff here to properly integrate. -- Dennis The Tiger  (Rawr and stuff) 23:40, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect per above. Doc Quintana (talk) 04:02, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete and redirect to List of Battlestar Galactica objects; the entry there already covers the topic in sufficient detail. --EEMIV (talk) 04:04, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep or merge to List of Battlestar Galactica objects - is a valid search term so folks will come looking for it (i.e. redirect rather than delete). Given on what is there, merge is best option currently, but if more critique/physics comes up might stand alone. Some sort of Faster-than-light article on fictional material (as it is a very common plot element) might be good too. Casliber (talk · contribs) 22:28, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
