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

Revision as of 02:55, 25 May 2010

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.

"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.

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.

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."

here's the thread on the forums

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