[edit] Sources?

I removed the sources-needed template since it's from a TV show; it's its own source in a way, and none of the other Galactica articles I looked at had such a notice. If someone else decides it's really needed, though, I won't revert. Zero Gravitas (話す • 投稿) 01:56, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

It does need a source for "The colour scheme and callsign of Colonial One were designed to correspond with Air Force One, the series of aircraft used to carry the President of the United States". Whilst it may be the outcome, unless there is a source for that statement it should read "appears to be" or something similar. Zarboki 08:58, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

I agree that it should be "appears to be", and have changed the article to reflect this. Fosnez 08:02, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

I've got a reference, and am altering this section per Ronald D. Moore's blog. -- saberwyn 10:59, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Civilian starliner?

I remember that in the miniseries Roslin said "This is a government ship and I'm a senior officer of the colonial government [so that put me in command]", so Colonial Heavy 798 was a government ship even before it become Colonial One. 140.115.200.116 17:58, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Technically Roslin is wrong - Colonial Heavy was being leased by the government, and it was a civilian owned ship. That's why it says "Intersun Star Liners" or something to that affect written on the side. Intersun is the company that owned it. Cyberia23 21:03, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
