Ship Pages Check list:

  • Copy and Paste the Wiki generator stuff into the top of the page.
  • Compare latest versions. Check further if in doubt.
  • Does it have a pic? if yes, find it and out it in the template. (No is automatically dealt with.)
  • Are all the Wiki template variables filled in?
    • Change Max speed 79 to 80
    • Change Max Thrust 139 to 140
    • Does Hull price match all other programs value?
    • For Gunboats and larger: Does Full cost match Datastorm price?
    • Is the Class correct? (Check for Capital ships, and transports, and special ships - e.g. Kusari Explorer)
  • Are there errors in the content of the infocard?
    • If yes, submit a bug report. (Don't just fix it on the wiki, it needs to be fixed in the infocard.)
    • They need the name, and id_number if possible, errors spotted, and suggested fix. (General comments of please fix it are not helpful. Be specific.) Submit it here http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=33203
  • Are there links that could go in the description?
  • Are there Handling notes to put in from previous versions?
    • Are they up-to-date?
      • Any Reviews?

}}
==Heading==
  • Check if there was Media (png's, videos) in previous versions.
    • If there was none, remove ==Media==
  • Preview.
  • Check description to see if it needs {{PTOC}} (this is a padded Table of Contents. Depends if it looks ok with or without. Leave it off if in doubt.)
    • if yes apply it like this:
}}{{PTOC}}Constructed of composite synth steel layered with thick armour out of a titanium triplated hull alloy, this hardened Zoner transport is used to traverse regions of the Border Worlds where diplomacy often takes a back seat to the gun.
  • Check if all the Categories are correct.
  • Preview one last time.
  • Fix anything.
  • Save.


Once only:

  • Is this page on short namespace?
    • If yes, Move the page to the long name in this format: Conference - Zoner Gunboat
      • Short name - Long name.
      • Remove ""s
      • Separate Battlecruiser to Battle Cruiser
    • If no, check if the name is on Short Name - Long Name
      • fix if necessary.
  • Double check if a redirect is needed from "short name" to "short name - long name page NAMESPACE"
  • Cross off on TODO ship list.
