I have one minor thing I'd like to point out. In the bases template page the Commodities sold and bought has the same red/green boxes BUT the actual Newark Station example page lacks them. It gives out a wrong signal there.
I'll try to find some time to do my part in filling out the wiki. Now it's easy...
About planets: Should we have the "dockable" info included in the info box? I think so.
I'd say lets not make stuff too easy for peeps and leave trade routes out. We could put the name, icon, description and manufacturers on the left. Places of sale and locations mined on the right? No buy since pretty much every base buys stuff, and it's just the price that varies.
I'd like personally see the page include distictive "terrain" features like the clouds, radiation belts etc. It certainly would help flesh out RP stories if you need the info.
What I find a more problematic are the pictures/locations of all the stuff. That's a one big thing that needs to be decided. My personal view on this is that we should include all the info (jump holes, places etc.) Otherwise the information is incomplete. People who don't want to explore already know of tools that reveal everything.
One exception might be in order though. Leave the guard system jump hole out of the listing, maybe just a mention would suffice?
Igiss stated that he doesnt want classified stuff on the wiki.
We'll need to find out what that means - exactly.
Looqas: That sounds like a good plan and one similar to a test Blodo did
already. That's your cue Blodo, to go ahead. Lets make a start on it and
work it out as we go. We'll just concentrate on one system, nail it and once
done, we can apply the template to all the systems. Blodo, you pick the system.

Good spotting. Theres probably more stuff to add to those bases as well, but i can't think of them right now.

Yus!
I also think we should add all info of a system (but also refer to Igiss comment above.)

@Hyung: I'll get on a Noimage.png right away, but my skills with image editing aren't very good, not to mention my designing skills... I will call for help when needed. I will set a sandbox to see how it would look in the end. How difficult is it to entirely remove an uploaded image? Can we do it without Igiss' intervention? I mean, can I upload a few test images without the risk of them cluttering the space?
Navigation template: looks good. Just one minor thing, I would prefer it to be two lines to separate the heading and actual links. Right now the description blends with the links and it's less comfortable. And maybe put it right on top of the Guide page, above the introduction? Please try it and see how that looks...
1. Just try it. I can take the responsibility if Igiss has a problem with something.
I'm pretty sure that we as editors can remove anything except protected pages.
2. Guide Nav: ok. Maybe I could make it a nice color to get it to stand out?

Ok, I just have no more ideas about the Noimage (btw @Blodo: it will have to be Noimage.jpg. png isn't allowed). I tried my first attempt and one with a reddish question mark with the template (Sandbox). I am really no designer...
I will do a few ship renders here and there when I find the time. But not much, time is scarce.
Yeah, I know guys. Unfortunately Igiss didn't turn on PNG uploading even though I advised to allow it, so I so far abstained from uploading a "no image" image because it wouldn't solve much since all "no image" images have a PNG extension. If you guys want to change them all to JPG, then go ahead, I can upload my "no image" JPG if you want, but Marvin's picture is awesome so I honestly see no need.
I edited the template to point to the test jpg that Marvin created.
Instant all ships with no images linking to that pic.
Good work Marvin. The picture looks great.
