[edit] Merge

Given that the Tomb of Athena only ever makes an appearance in this episode, I can't see any reason why it can't be merged here.  -- Run!  12:45, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Against This article is about the episode Home and filling it with all the detail about the Tomb of Athena would just clutter it up. Cyberia23 21:14, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

On the contrary; everything except the first two sentences (one of which would be unnecessary here) in the Tomb of Athena article details events that happen in this episode. Given that this article should also detail those events (for the plotline to make any sense), that one sentence won't be much hassle to integrate.  -- Run!  23:12, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

actually, the Tomb of Athena article has details about episodes prior to Home (including Kobol's Last Gleaming). plus, you never know if it will play a bigger part later?! (although it is unlikely) but over all, im going to have to disagree. just leave it alone, its fine, its not hurting anyone. -Xornok 23:22, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

My mistake, the event details are in fact spread over a few episodes. Still, there is no reason why it can't be merged into them. There's not enough information there about the the Tomb to justify a separate article, and there's no indication in the series that the fleet is going to revist the Tomb anytime soon. If they do, there might be just enough extra information to recreate it, but as it stands the article has as much information about the Tomb as there possibly can be and it is still very small. There's only one sentence in the article which describes what the Tomb actually is (in the context of BSG). Everything else just describes surrounding events, which is all detailed in the episodes.  -- Run!  10:35, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Home BSG2.jpg

Image:Home BSG2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
