Just wanted to copy and paste this from the CZ so you would know what's up. I've redone the Ships category so in the future when you create a new ship article follow the categorization I've implemented.
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)


"Ok so I had some free time today and I went ahead and completely restructured the WCPedia Ships Category. I've gone ahead and tried to categorize as much as possible all existing articles so people can understand how the system works.

Basically most ship articles will 99% of the time fall into 2 subcategories, in a few cases a ship might fall into as many as 6 subcategories because they are used by multiple factions (Confed, UBW, FRL) however they are extremely limited in number.
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)


When creating new ship (cap and fighter) articles just look at the categorization of something similar (heavy fighter, cruiser, etc) and copy and paste the correct category tags into your new article.
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)


For certain factions I didn't break down the subcategories as much because I thought it would have only created unnecessary pages with one link on them. (See FRL and Pirates, Civvies, Steltek, etc)


Another project completed."
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)


[http://www.crius.net/zone/showthread.php?t=25753 here's the thread on the forums]
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)


Several of these articles - and not necessarily ones written by you - are written in an atrociously informal tone. Editing some of those articles has been tedious. - Wedge

Sigh. I repeat, I'm not saying the stuff written by you, necessarily. I was mainly frustrated with the Tarawa article which was a grossly informal summary of the events from the novels. - Wedge

If you both notice your's truly was the one who wrote that garbage article and if I remember correctly it was because I just wanted to get all the info in place and then sort it out. That seems to be the case with this project we load it up then make it presentable. :p - Dund
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.


I don't understand Russian, but looks to me like fan-written content. - Wedge


No worries, though I encourage you to direct such queries to the forums as there are many more people who read them regularly, and plenty of experienced WC fans among them. - Wedge

As for turret mines, they are not a base or installation. They are a defensive measure so I'd include them in the weapons category. - Dundradal
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)


What Dund said, but please direct such queries to the forums in the future. - Wedge
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)

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.
