Clean Up and Reorganization

As with the Cylons (RDM) series pages, I move to have this page content merged into the Twelve Colonies (RDM) series pages (with TOS content moved to the counterpart Twelve Colonies (TOS) article), and then delete this page. Any votes for or against this action, note here. --Spencerian 15:36, 23 January 2006 (EST)

There's nothing here that isn't stated on either Twelve Colonies or Kobol. While the Cylons' page is "Cylons" (well, Cylons (RDM)), the page for the "humans" is the page for their culture/nation, the Twelve Colonies of Kobol. --Ricimer 15:41, 23 January 2006 (EST)
Under no circumstances should this article be deleted or merged with any other article. The subject of the Colonials is a completely significant enough subject to merit its own page. The Colonials are more than just the sum of the Twelve Colonies and therefore have to recognized as a valid subject. -- Troyian 16:20, 23 January 2006 (EST)
The "Colonials" by name ARE the people of the "Twelve Colonies," The information of this page should be placed in the History of the Twelve Colonies subarticle. Having this article as its own separate entity is fundementally as redundant as the disorganization that once appeared wit the various Cylon articles. I don't understand where you differentiate the people who are "Colonials" from the Colonies they occupy. I stay by my recommendation to merge this content into the appropriate subarticle of The Twelve Colonies (RDM) series, with this namespace as a redirect, unless there is another valid reason not to do so. (TOS content, of course, would be moved to the appropriate area as well). --Spencerian 16:46, 23 January 2006 (EST)
Watch that attitude Troyian. Even I defer to consensus. While I'm on the subject, why haven't you given us any citations for that SkyOne information you gave before? This isn't earning you brownie points, as it were...--Ricimer 16:56, 23 January 2006 (EST)
Ricimer, your use of the phrase "Watch that attitude" is inappropriate as you are not discussing the merits of what Troyian is debating, but Troyian him/herself, as well as bringing up a separate topic that is not relevant here. Please center yourself back to the matter at hand.
After re-reading this article, I find nothing here that hasn't been mentioned in the current subarticles of the Twelve Colonies. We can parse through this article to be sure, but there's no reason for it to be here when it can be a subheading in the History of the Twelve Colonies subarticle, with TOS data to be moved. --Spencerian 17:01, 23 January 2006 (EST)
