Planet page titles are to be named Planet Name. There are a number of systems that have the same name as their major planet, so we use "Planet" to distinguish between the system and the planet.

When in text blocks and it is obvious the context is talking about a planet, you may drop the 'Planet'. I.e. "...the corsairs invaded Malta." When it is possible to be confused with the system please use "Planet Name".

Example Planet Page: Planet Manhattan. The best and easiest way to add a new Planet to wiki is to copy the Planet Manhattan page and edit it.

Categories

Categories should be added. The infobox now automatically adds the two most relevant categories to the page (Category:Bases and Category:Planets). It is your job to add further categories listing the planet to an area of space, such as:

[[Category:Liberty]]
