Thanks
I didnt find any spelling mistake in "independant".

I think it should be spelled 'independent' (note that there is no 'a' in the word). The online dictionary I normally use (www.dict.cc) doesn't know 'independant' neither, but it does know 'independent'. Yet, I'm no native english speaker so you could know better.

Yet i like the idea of the head lines, but we need to think about: How is the hierarchy going to be, because most of the Border Worlds are controlled either by an Outcast faction (like BLS,RoS,101st) or by Corsirs, Nomads, etc. I also thought on somthing like: Lawful/Unlawful/Neutrals, and putting the systems inside them e.g
Player Factions(Link) --------> Unlawful(Link) -------------> Liberty Space (Header only, with a small description) -------> Liberty Rogues (Link)
tell me what do you think about this to see how can we make it work correctly.

Thinking of it, it might be simpler to have 1 page with a table. Tables are sortable, so you could easily sort them by lawful/unlawful, Liberty/Bretonia/etc.
Like this:
| Name | Type | Lawful/Unlawful | Area |
|---|---|---|---|
| Liberty Rogues | Player Faction | Unlawful | Liberty |
| Liberty Navy | Player Faction | Lawful | Liberty |
| Liberty Navy | NPC Faction | Lawful | Liberty |
| Bretonia Police | NPC Faction | Lawful | Bretonia |
Could work very well, but multi-area factions might be a problem, because they won't be sorted correctly.

Well i like the sorting table idea, but putting together Player and NPC factions does not sounds good to me, we could do a division for Players and NPC and put the tables inside those divisions. Or maybe it could also be good to have two tables in the same page, one for NPCs and another for players, that could make things less complicated. And we must not forget Neutral Factions and the Nomads, some like junkers may also cause trouble
Look at this:
Player Factions
| Name | Lawful/Unlawful | Area |
|---|---|---|
| Liberty Rogues | Unlawful | Liberty |
| Lane Hackers | Unlawful | Liberty - Surrounding Indpendant Systems |
Neutral Factions
| Name | Area |
|---|---|
| Junkers Council | Mainly Liberty? |
NPC Factions
| Name | Lawful/Unlawful | Area |
|---|---|---|
| Bretonia Police | Lawful | Bretonia |
| Liberty Security Forces | Lawful | Liberty |
Neutral Factions
| Name | Area |
|---|---|
| Junkers | All Sirius? |
| Zoners | Mainly Border Worlds - Bases in all Sirius? |
How does that sounds? i also thought that most criminals allied with Corsirs or Outcasts... but i dont think that could be of much use. I used a normal table for neutrals because you will never have too many of them and its like "an attach" to the other tables.
I am not an native english speaker either so i could be wrong about "independant" i will check how is it written in FL later and let you know.

Why not take the neutrals into the same table as the others and just give them a 'neutral' instead of 'lawful' or 'unlawful'?

Transferring Player Factions to Player Groups
Can we transfer in the same table version, only using one table for all factions? Would be better to keep existing info. No problem that some factions won't be included into the table in the first place (list will be pruned alot anyway).

Seems you read my mind, I'm currently working on that. I'm creating 2 tables, though, one for Factions awaiting approval and one for the rest.

Kusari Politics
Editorial changes to that page are perfectly ok by me, as long as the actual content is not changed without discussion.
The lousy layout is because I just jotted down my notes in vi during lunch break and then copied them.
