Revision as of 09:01, 14 May 2008
Pages that have to be merged with this one
- Liberty Player Factions
- Bretonia Player Factions
- Kusari Player Factions
- Rheinland Player Factions
- Hispania Player Factions
- Other Player Factions
Allied/neutral/enemy/etc.
I think the information about who is ally/enemy/neutral towards whom would be better placed on the pages of the factions themselves.

Not sure about the format yet. Will add info from http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=1304 to make this more precise.

Please have a look at Liberty Player Factions for a format proposal. I took the time to format the factions that were there into a sortable table.
I like the idea to put Affiliation there instead of Alignment, that would make the Outcasts/Corsairs easier to classify.
Is the list you put up composed of official factions only, or does it contain unofficials, too?

Table is better. But I'd suggest to add a new page for it like Factions Table to keep the current list. We (admins) may have certain use for it later.
Also, separate page with table will allow to make it all sortable (include all 32 factions without separating them into houses).
I'd suggest the following table column order: Name, Tag, Affiliation, Home system, Description. Area is nice, but won't work for Hispania factions (which are not only in Hispania) and for factions like Junkers, Zoners etc.
Reference info for official factions is here: http://discoverygc.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7453 most current. I used only factions listed on this page.

Having the data redundant is a bad idea, I think, because in the long run, updates won't be done in both. That will either leave one massively outdated and the other one current (better case) or both in a very inconsistent state (worst case).
About the columns, those seem good, I'll update the pages as soon as I find the time.
