As to what you should need for the different categories... that's mainly a question for admins I think.
I can't do anything about that, I can only try to divide them into those categories.

About how it should look...
Well it's intended as a help tool when deciding, not as a huge spoiler.
There is a list of selling locations and factions somewhere around (couldn't find it now). *cough* Not to mention programs like FLStat or Datastorm *cough*
I aimed for simple overview over IDs/ships.
As you might have noticed that it's over 100 ships and 55IDs. 100*55=5500 words only writing down faction names.
It would take the better part of a few days to write down as well as taking quite a few pages.

Why is a suggested IFF/tag for the Osiris LSF and Navy?
It should be Order and Corsair since it's available in gamma and some corsairs have them.
Liberty is a big nono.
A bit iffy on the Taiidan Bomber part. GMG could be hostile to Rheinland and its pirates but the ship is sold on a Zoner owned station, a Freeport where any sort of pilot could drop in. So its the Zoners who actually deal, bargain the vessel not the GMG those who are the producers of it only. As for the Omicron Delta being out of breach, it is most likely possible for Zoners to carry out the delivery of ships and such orders as they have a vast zone of influence and organization, not to mention the freeports they have across almost the entire Sirius.
I think of the Zoners as the global market of Sirius actually. If they have a grasp of something at their hands, the thing could be bargained with anyone who comes up with a good offer and has decent enough relationship with the Zoners. There are nations in war, as of modern date who provide, bargain weaponry and war technology with their opponents, in a underhanded way or via global networks of blackmarkets. But still, the superior sides always tend, endeavor to keep the best technology available, and the secrets they hold at their sides.

Anubis on Kurile, etc.
I flipped through the list and don't really have any complaints. It did, however, occur to me that some passenger pods for trains/transports or more passenger ships would really help those of us who focus on that sort of thing, with how few Liners there are.
Looks like you spoke too soon Del *watches thread derail with another foot stomping post*!
On the note of ship sale locations, amidst a fevered work schedule I'm working as hard as I can in (an attempt) to bring a little order to that chaos in some method beyond simply proposing it on the forums. Likewise for sprucing up some info cards.

Jinx had actually made some rather interesting progress on that. If you do a search on the subject in the development forum perhaps you could inspire him to renew his interest in the subject.
@Taiidan, I followed to poll and focused a bit more on the infocard, then if I take selling location, I get that Zoners sell it in Delta. Since it's not made by them I didn't consider the "sirius-wide" delivery.
Last consideration were infocards on the other Taiidan ships.
But as I said it's one of the 3-4 ships that will probably need admin decision.
Also I didn't add coalition ID into the list.... maybe I'll do it, but I admit that I actually don't have much idea about coalition diplomacy.
