			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today we had a very successfully maintenance day on the wiki&#8217;s and the servers all at the same time. (Go figure&#8230;)</p>
<p>In any case, if you didn&#8217;t notice already, the servers never went down. That&#8217;s because the servers where not to go down, but the backend for us to access their support system was down. Go figure (as I said before.) <img src='http://blog.battlestarwiki.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  So this is done.</p>
<p>After many many months of the Task Perl Bot not working, it now is working and will start automatically updating the open task list on the English wiki, thanks to our newest bot installed, Media Tag Bot (By <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Carnildo">Carnildo</a>). I used the new perale backend code to re-code the Task Bot, and it worked fine. A few errors, but working those out with Carnildo.</p>
<p>The Media Tag Bot examines all recently updated media files and checks to see if they are tagged with the correct copyright tags. If not, it will notify the user and tag the media file according to the rules we have set forth in it&#8217;s logic based upon the set polices on the Media Wiki. This will help us make sure we are covered legally and have no issues in the future.</p>
<p>If you have any questions on what went on in the past 48 hours, just give us a shout out on the [[BW:CN|cheif's board]] and we will get back to you!<br />
So say bot us all!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The episode guide for &#8220;[[He That Believeth In Me]]&#8221; is online. Omitted are the last two acts of the episode, due to our agreement with SciFi Channel/NBC-Universal. The last two acts, as well as information within them, will be online at 12:01 P.M. ET.</p>
<p>Also, as we&#8217;ve done in the past, we [[BW:AIRLOCK|lock articles]] that pertain to the episode in order to ensure the website is online and accessible during and after airing</p>
<p>We don&#8217;t foresee the webserver crashing, but do expect some slowness as our traffic briefly increases.</p>
<p>Of course, you may discuss the season four premiere and any BSG topic on our exclusive <a href="http://www.battlestarforum.com" target="_blank">Battlestar Forums</a>.</p>
<p>Thank you for your patience and understanding! Enjoy [[Season 4 (2008)|Season 4]]!</p>
<p>So say we all!</p>

<p>So anyway, we&#8217;ve hit our 2,500 article mark again. Which is a beautiful thing.</p>
<p>This time, the 2500th article was on <em>[[Encyclopedia Galactica]]</em>, a 1979 publication that covered the [[Original Series]]. If you want to read it, BattlestarPegasus.com has the PDF version <a href="http://www.battlestarpegasus.com/publications/Encyclopedia_Galactica.pdf" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>Runner up is an article on [[Seamus Kevin Fahey]], writer for the not-yet aired episode, &#8220;[[Faith]]&#8221;.</p>
