Planet Page Titles

Manhattan
Planet Manhattan.jpg

Owner Flag-liberty.png Liberty
Location C/D4, New York
Technical information
Population ~300 million
Docking Yes
Terrain Terrestrial
Diameter 12,753
Mass 5,98 x 10e24 kg
Temperature -46°C to 43°C
Escape velocity 11.27 km/sec

Planet page titles are to be named Planet Name. There are a number of systems that have the same name as their major planet, so we use "Planet" to distinguish between the system and the planet.

When in text blocks and it is obvious the context is talking about a planet, you may drop the 'Planet'. I.e. "...the corsairs invaded Malta." When it is possible to be confused with the system please use "Planet Name".

Example Planet Page: Planet Manhattan. The best and easiest way to add a new Planet to wiki is to copy the Planet Manhattan page and edit it.

Template

Please use the relevant information for the template fields

{{Planet Infobox
| name = Manhattan
| image = manhattan.jpg
| owner = {{House Link | Liberty}}
| system = [[New York]]
| sector = C/D4
| house = 
| population = ~300 million

| terrain = Terrestrial
| diameter = 12,753
| mass = 5,98 x 10e24 kg
| temperature = -46°C to 43°C
| escape_velocity = 11.27 km/sec
}}
}}

In Text References to Planets

When referring to the planet in page text please add a capitalised "Planet" or using other forms of reference such as:

The link must be to Planet Name. This will keep things clear when referencing to the Planet or to the system.

* on the planet of [[Planet Manhattan|Manhattan]]
* on the [[Planet Manhattan|Manhattan]] planet
* we landed on [[Planet Manhattan|Manhattan]]
* [[Planet Manhattan]]

Categories

Categories should be added. The infobox now automatically adds the two most relevant categories to the page (Category:Bases and Category:Planets). It is your job to add further categories listing the planet to an area of space, such as:

[[Category:Liberty]]
