If the page is titled for the franchise- then yes, it should be plural.  Because that's it's ''name.''  You don't make the article about the fast-food chain under 'McDonald'.  (to pull a really lousy example out of my ass.) -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 10:48, 6 March 2008 (UTC)<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>

Was just coming over to this article to suggest moving it, but I see we have a template already. So, yeah. "Battlestars" is more proper. You wouldn't put the Neo-Knights at "Neo-Knight" or the Avengers at "Avenger," because the plural term is the proper team name ("New Warriors" not "New Warrior," "X-Men" not "X-Man," and so on). Same case here. Do we want it to be "Battlestars (group)" or "Battlestars (team)", or would that be unnecessary, since the other page (for the manga) has a "The" in front of it? - Chris McFeely 10:33, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
