Talk:Armistice Officer

From Battlestar Wiki, the free, open content Battlestar Galactica encyclopedia and episode guide

In the miniseries, Gaeta refers to him as the "courier officer". Should we move the page, or is the current title more obvious? --Peter Farago 16:30, 8 December 2005 (EST)

Since he hasn't a name, I just updated the page with that information. If we really don't have to move a page, we shouldn't, at least for a character that we will never gain more info about. I'll have a redirect page set for "Courier officer". --Spencerian 13:17, 13 December 2005 (EST)

Sexual Assault

In an edit summary, CalculatinAvatar muses: "ponder changing "sexually assaults" but come up short"

I think the wording is good. We certainly wouldn't have a problem with it if the genders were reversed. --Peter Farago 19:34, 22 April 2006 (CDT)

Concur here. Six is forcing the officer to kiss her, preventing his escape. I think that's sexual assault in its basic form. --Spencerian 13:01, 24 April 2006 (CDT)

Well, my thought was that such wording implies it went further than it did, but, as mentioned, I couldn't think of anything better. --CalculatinAvatar 13:24, 24 April 2006 (CDT)

Frankly, I can't think that there was time to DO anything, but getting the kiss of death is sufficient... --Spencerian 08:41, 25 April 2006 (CDT)

It was a sexual assault -- the guy didn't really object, but he was understandably scared out of his wits. But the problem is that "sexual assault" is a legal term that covers a very broad range of actions. I've replaced it with a straight description of events. Maybe "forcibly kisses" is kind of an odd turn of phrase, but it is more specifically descriprive. --Evan 17:43, 6 July 2006 (CDT)
