Talk:Twelve Colonies

message: All the articles listed in the merge template are very short stubs, contain repetative information, and are likely to never be anything more than stubs (unless visited by the television series). This article seems as good as any for containing what little information about them exists. Planets not listed in the merge are Caprica, New Caprica and Kobol  -- Run!  21:48, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Since there's been no reply in nearly two weeks I'm going ahead with the merge. There are only three worthy items of interest I could find from the planet articles, and they look somewhat out of place, so they will need attention.  -- Run!  11:09, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

message: How do we know that BSG stands for Battlestar Group instead of Battlestar Strike Group?  Has it been stated explicitly?  If it hasn't, I would assume that it would be the latter similar to a CVSG in the US Navy. --Burzum 16:17, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

message: what constellation represents Earth? and Kobol?
Does the 13th Zodiac represent one of them? Ophiucus
The constellations and their references are the reason I was rather shocked to read here that all 12 colonies were supposedly in the same star system. I'v been watching the new series since it premiered, and it always seemed to me that the Colonies were a much larger "alliance" than just 12 planets in a single star system.  And while I grant that this is indeed science fiction, it stretches believability to suggest the possibility of 12 habitable planets in a single star system.  Were it not for Ron Moore's comments to this effect, I would have suggested the Colonies were 12 distinct star systems.  Toroca 20:43, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That bit about the two colonies orbiting Ragnar at its lagrange points is not correct. They are the lagrange points in relation to the system primary, so effectively the two colonies are worlds at trojan points preceeding and following Ragnar in its orbit. They would therefore orbit the system primary like Ragnar and not orbit Ragnar itself.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.148.43.180 (talk) 08:43, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

message: User:Kintetsubuffalo suggests that Twelve Colonies and List of Battlestar Galactica (re-imagining) locations be merged together.
* Oppose this article contains info on both the original and reimagined versions, whereas the list article contains only the reiminagined versions. Further merging the list here would be bad since the list contains non-Twelve Colonies stuff (rather most of it is not part of the Twelve Colonies) 70.51.8.242 03:42, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge with list of reimagined BSG locations 

message: I checked it out at a B&N, and yes all 12 colonies are in a single system. Whoever is in charge of this page can check out a copy for themselves.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.179.30.13 (talk) 03:24, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I just got a copy of the book as well.  Since it is officially licensed, I think that its description of the star system and the histories of the Colonies should be incorporated into this article.  Any thoughts on this? Early frosts (talk) 04:15, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

message: It is Aerelon and Aquaria at Ragnar's Lagrange points, not Caprica/Gemenon.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.209.144.16 (talk) 05:25, 8 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Can anyone show any evidence that the title "United Colonies of Kobol" is actually used? The passports in the series say "Colonies of Kobol" (). --Philly boy92 (talk) 22:25, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  United Colonies of Kobol? 

message: In the original series, the survivors aboard the fleet (and I assume those of the Colonies before the Cylon attack as well) called themselves Human. Did the 12 Colonies and the survivors (of the re-imagined series) ever refer to themselves as Human or did they just call themselves Colonials ? --80.254.146.140 (talk) 14:11, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
