KIS Sivar as in the SM1 ship I assume. I already did a basic Sivar-Class page however it is missing stuff from the movie to a degree. Make sure you check every source for that ship as some of the information is spread around.  
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)


What about your other articles that need cleaning up? You should handle those first before moving off to something else.

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)


Well, that would help me to focus a bit on areas where I can truly be useful. It is a little overwhelming to consider where I can contribute when most efforts are on WC1. Okay, I'll focus on fixing my current articles for the time being.
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)


One more thing I would like to confirm: Is the CIC Encyclopedia a legitimate source here? That's where most of my info comes from. Most of my articles are composed of information gathered and reworked from related articles referring to related topics. This is something I need to know, because now I doubt my own works myself.

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)


ONE more question, and then I'll shut up: Shall we create a category for superweapons, for things like the Temblor Bomb, Gravition Gun, Proton Accelerator Gun, Mace Nuke, etc.? These weapons don't seem to fit into the existing Missile category or weapons list, which focuses on lasers. Just a suggestion.
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)

The old CIC encyclopedia is a source to use sparingly. It contains some errors and lacks a lot of information generally. It is best if you only work on articles that you have the sources for. So that you can fill in the blanks that are in many of the old encyclopedia entries. Don't just copy and paste information from there to here.

I told you to only clean up your previous articles before moving on, otherwise you are just leaving them for me or someone else to clean up. Something I don't want to have to do. If you have a question about an article...ask it at the forums...you've got hundreds of WC experts willing to help.
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.


Lastly, don't worry about creating a superweapons category. That is something we will discuss at the IRC meeting when the time comes. No need to continue to divest focus by jumping all over the place. For now again, FOCUS ON CLEANING UP YOUR ARTICLES. After that's done we can talk about where you can focus. As it stands now I'm the only one working on WC1 (mission entries) and I should be done most of them in a week or two.


What WCs do you own? and what manuals/sources do you have? The CIC hosts many of the old manuals so you can use them. I'm guessing you own none of the novels. You need to really stick with stuff you can actually research and then produce articles.

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)
 
 
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)
