Code generator checklists

ID pages

1. Find the ID page that you wish to update on the Wiki.
2. Find the entry for that page in the code generator, and copy the generated Wiki code into the editor. Make sure that you replace all code that is there from before.
3. Add [[wikilinks]] where appropriate, such as for factions and ship names.
4. Click “Show preview”. Does the page look like it should? Compare it with another ID page.
   1. There should for example be no dashes after each bullet point on lists on the ID page.
5. If everything’s looking good by now, click save.

Ship pages

4. Add [[wikilinks]] where appropriate, such as for factions and base names.
5. Click “Show preview”. Does the page look like it should? Compare it with another ship page.
