== Mission renaming ==
Hey there! In reviewing some of the old mission pages marked for deletion, I see a lot of people still have links to them, so when you rename them, please make sure to check the box that says leave a redirect behind at the old page name.

== Academy courses ==
Person to ask would be FltAdm Wolf/Jordan. He wrote most of the current courses. Main issue with using LUG's stuff is it's probably copyrighted, so yeah, check with Jordan first and see what he says. We can always add new courses of course inspired by whatever you've found as well. So new course descriptions, etc. [[User:Rich|'''♫ Rich''']] ▪ [[118Wiki:Administrators|<small>118Wiki Administrator</small>]] ▪ [[User talk:Rich|<small>Send Message</small>]] 18:10, 17 April 2015 (CDT)
: I think Rich has the right idea -- just use your source as inspiration! (Although I do object to the idea that we don't already have enough courses to constitute a full transcript. But that doesn't mean we can't add more, I guess!) --[[User:FltAdml. Wolf|Wolf]] /<sup>[[User talk:FltAdml. Wolf|talk page]]</sup> 14:26, 18 April 2015 (CDT)

== Bajoran name template ==
Hi, I saw you created variants of the N template for Bajoran names. What are the plans for this template? Since Bajoran names don't require rearranging of last name first in the URL/page title, they can simply be linked to like this <nowiki>[[Anora Manar]]</nowiki>: [[Anora Manar]]. Likewise, [[Template:Nrank]] (and all other N template variants including Template:N itself) can still link to Bajoran names by just treating the entire name as a single name: <nowiki>{{nrank|Lieuteant|Anora Manar}}</nowiki>: {{nrank|Lieuteant|Anora Manar}}[[User:Rich|'''♫ Rich''']] ▪ [[118Wiki:Administrators|<small>118Wiki Administrator</small>]] ▪ [[User talk:Rich|<small>Send Message</small>]] 15:22, 14 May 2015 (CDT)
:Likewise, templates such as [[Template:Roster]] and [[Template:Crew]] can use Bajoran names by just ensuring that the entire name is treated as single name (i.e., placed in the first name field) and the last name field left blank. Ex:
<pre>
{{Crew
|SHIP = USS Atlantis
|ROSTER PAGE = Atlantis Master Crew List
|NPC PAGE = Atlantis Personal NPCs
|HISTORY PAGE = Atlantis Cumulative Crew History}}
|{{Tile|Raj|Blueheart|Red|Commanding Ofc.|Cmdr Raj Blueheart1.png}}

== Alex Blake template ==
You've put in code for a template that is calling for parameters. Thus, on your template page, you've had it display again in the "noinclude" section with the full parameters listed, but then on your character page, you haven't specified any of those parameters. You either need to put
<pre>
{{AlexBlake
|FirstName = Alex
|LastName = Blake
|Posting = Starfleet Academy
|UserName = Varaan
|Rank = Cadet 1st Class
|Style = DS9
|Post = Cadet
|Color = Grey
|Color2 = Grey
|Color3 = Grey
|Species = [[Human]]
|Gender = Male
|Serial = RQ - 352 - 787
|BirthMonth = 01
|BirthDate = 06
|BirthYear = 2371
|BirthPlace = [[Whilton's Folly]]

</pre>
on your character's page itself or have Template:AlexBlake specify parameters for another template like [[Template:LCARS-Navbar]]. For instance, see [[Template:Skyfirenav]].

== Re: Star and Planet Updates ==
I was actually thinking about that, or maybe that and splitting to Star/StarAdv templates as well, so people can choose which one they want [[User:Ceciri|Ceciri]] ([[User talk:Ceciri|talk]]) 08:08, 11 June 2015 (CDT)
: Yeah, I tried that. I also failed. I might want to test that out on a testing template so I don't break back planets.. I think I'll look into that and see if we can make it optional. [[User:Ceciri|Ceciri]] ([[User talk:Ceciri|talk]]) 16:49, 11 June 2015 (CDT)
:: Okay, so I've got one that will display almost anything optionally. I'm going to see if I can create a test template to propose. [[User:Ceciri|Ceciri]] ([[User talk:Ceciri|talk]]) 06:27, 12 June 2015 (CDT)
I've got an alternate system template- tell me what you think? [[User:Ceciri/SandboxThree]] [[User:Ceciri|Ceciri]] ([[User talk:Ceciri|talk]]) 08:15, 14 June 2015 (CDT)

== Re: CHEntry Template Question ==
Hey Varaan, I'm sorry it took so long for me to see your question. I was on LOA after the birth of my second child. You've probably figured this out already, but to add notes in the CHEntry Template, you just add something like this:<pre>|Note=transferred from Science</pre> anywhere in the template code. So, for instance, if the entry you want to add a note to looks like this:<pre>{{CHEntry|Ensign|Bob|Dylan|239202.18-Present|Gold|Style=DS9}}</pre>You just pop in the above line like this:<pre>{{CHEntry|Ensign|Bob|Dylan|239202.18-Present|Gold|Style=DS9|Note=Transferred from Science}}</pre>I hope that helps...
Well, no, I hope you did figure it out in my absence, because I'd hate to think you've been lacking the ability to use these kinds of notes in some important crew history for all these months while I've been away, but in case you have, here's how.
