Instead of uploading character articles, I'd prefer if you'd help convert ship entries to the new infobox I created. I've already done all the Confed fighters but everything else remains. It's something I'd like to get done before the CIC's bday in August. Let me know. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 19:42, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
Hey, I see you've been back at it. Please try not to create stub articles. If you are going to upload new stuff please do a complete article because otherwise I still have a lot of work of going back through your articles and rewriting them. Also, review the other articles I've rewritten to see the style that should be used. You've got some really awkward and clunky wording in some of the articles and I noticed that needs to be corrected. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 11:10, 1 January 2011 (CST)


Yes and note that some of those lines will not be answerable so don't just throw in whatever. If you have a question, post it to the forum and we can try to see if can answer one thing or another. This is how the academy manual discussion started, over a question about the Morningstar's combat introduction. Look at the ones I've already changed along with the updated fighters template page. It contains the new infobox and rudimentary instructions. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 19:57, 2 June 2010 (UTC)

That link is to the KS manual that has Claw Marks, WC2 manual and Victory Streak within. Please stick to material which you have the sources for. The Blackmane station article looks like you were pulling info from Saga (which is not canon). I deleted the section because it needed to be completely redone. Again, if you have questions ask on the CZ or in #wingnut. I appreciate the help, but as I've said before you should pick an area and then completely develop articles. Jumping from area to area is creating more work in most cases. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 13:03, 10 January 2011 (CST)


FYI, when you are doing the new infoboxes please review the ones I've already done for how I'm displaying information. I'm noticing the weapons and armor/shields variables are not in the same format the others are in. Please convert the ones you've done to look like the others. It's some minor things. I just want them all to be the same. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 23:12, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
I'm in the process of rewriting the Sorthak article currently. The Blackmane article will follow afterwards. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 13:21, 10 January 2011 (CST)


Yeah it's little things like adding cm after the armor/shield values and not using port/starboard but using side instead and how number of weapons are displayed. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 23:38, 8 June 2010 (UTC)


Are you going to come to the Bday party next Tuesday? It would be a good time to talk to all the other fans as well as the other WCPedia contributors to try and focus our efforts. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 04:18, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
Hello Aeronautico! I just wanted to stop by and thank you for all your hard work. You're getting very good at this! LOAF 13:26, 11 January 2011 (CST)


It's on the CIC's IRC channel #wingnut on their IRC server. We've met there before. 7pm EST 12th birthday party starts. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 12:31, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
I'd actually like to write those articles. We still have some ship entries to add. You should really come by #wingnut more often as LOAF and I are often in there discussing WCPedia stuff. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 17:49, 15 January 2011 (CST)


Quite a few people will be there. It's the one day a year all WC fans get together. Haven't you been reading the bday posts on the front page? --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 23:01, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
Stop by whenever. We are both logged into #wingnut when we are home. We are online now. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 18:27, 15 January 2011 (CST)

I just took fresh screen-shots and saved them as lossless PNGs. Were you trying to do the same? I thought they were just copied from the CIC Guides. I finished SM2 (thought I did that previously, but apparently not) and made a start on WC2, but was too tired to get very far. I'm happy to continued with WC2 + SO1/2, to free you up for other tasks - Wedge.


The SO fiction calls the endgame of WCP the "Second Battle of Kilrah." --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 17:27, 22 August 2010 (CDT)


Alrighty, thanks. Also, if I created an article on the Temblor Bomb run, would that be okay? If not, I will hold off on it. -Aeronautico

Do me a favor and do not edit things I am working on. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 23:21, 22 August 2010 (CDT)
Hey! Good to hear from you, I hope everything is going well for you. Dundradal is correct, WCA is "canon". --[[User:Bandit LOAF|Bandit LOAF]] 08:10, 8 February 2011 (CST)


Hey, there have been quite a few changes since you've last contributed. It would be very beneficial if you came by #wingnut to talk to everyone about the project as we have new systems for article creation and layout in place. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 08:01, 10 July 2011 (CDT)


No worries, and thank you for your contributions. Just remember that we're writing for an encyclopaedia, not a novel. ;) - Wedge


That's great to hear. Make sure to try and make the IRC meeting on the 18th of this month. We are going to be talking quite a bit about the project. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 19:56, 3 September 2010 (CDT)
We've been on #wingnut regularly. Just stop by anytime. We've been working on everything layout. The entire project has been split into two parts. The Wing Commander Encyclopedia for real world entries, and the Terran Knowledge Back for inuniverse entries. We've started product landing pages which are under the Games link in the sidebar. Other types of entries are going in in all types of new areas. Just stop by when you can. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 18:20, 10 July 2011 (CDT)


What I'm doing yes is from ER mostly with some info from Fleet Action. It depends on what novels you have. I'd read them in publishing order since the ones after Freedom Flight build on each other. I'm probably going to move to Action Stations next. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 20:11, 3 September 2010 (CDT)
Just come into #wingnut. I'll be there tonight working on the project. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 12:56, 26 July 2012 (CDT)
 
Read End Run first. Action Stations covers the beginning of the war. bob has been uploading a lot of stuff from it. Check out his recent work to see. The Price of Freedom is the WC4 novelization. Check the blurbs on the back. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 20:48, 3 September 2010 (CDT)
 
If you are going to work on the project jump in #wingnut. I'm online now finishing the first battle of kilrah article. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 20:58, 3 September 2010 (CDT)
 
Jump into #wingnut. We are actually discussing a few things in WC3 if you want to see how we work on some of these articles. --[[User:Dundradal|Dundradal]] 18:05, 11 September 2010 (CDT)
