I do wiki things. [[User talk:Sky Blake|Leave a message on my talkpage]], or hit me up via email.


===Projects===
To-do list: [[Dryarian]], [[Ronin Staff Roster]](!!)
====ILI page restructures====
I am currently restructuring pages located in the [[Intelligent Lifeform Index]], including shifting planetary information to pages in [[Stellar Cartography]]. No information has been deleted - it's instead been shifted or reworded in some manner. If you have any questions, head to my [[User talk:Sky Blake|talk page]]. If you have content you'd like to be added to a species page, add it (please cite your sources using the [[Template:References|references template]], especially if your content is in-sim).

=== Edit shorthand meanings ===
**[[Bynar]]
 
**[[Centauran]]
====''Cate''====
***[[Alpha Centauri I|AC I]], [[Alpha Centauri III|AC III]], [[Velestus]], [[Alpha Centauri XII|AC XII]]
This means I've added, changed, or removed categories.
**[[Cygnian]]
 
**[[Dachlyd]]
====''NC''====
***[[Dathis II]], [[Dathis system]]
This is short hand for "naming convention". If you see '''NC''' as noted reason for a page move, it's likely that I've moved a page that doesn't conform to our [[Naming pages properly|standard naming practices]] - often this is because it's using the old [Surname, Given name] format, other times it's simply because a page name is either misleading, too long, or players looking for it wouldn't find it very easily.
**[[Edo]]
 
**[[El-Aurian]]
====''MFD''====
***[[The Eccia]]
This is short hand for "marked for deletion", as those images will also have the [[Template:Delete]] displayed. If the image was uploaded to the wiki before June 1st, 2021 (AEST), and is not currently displayed on a page, I've likely marked it for deletion. If I've added the delete template to your image, but you wish to keep it, edit the image page and remove <nowiki>{{delete}}</nowiki> ASAP.
**[[Greeters]]
 
**[[Jahardin]]
Alternatively, if you see an image that is in the deletion category, and you have a way to utilise it, ''please do'', and remove the <nowiki>{{delete}}</nowiki> template.
**[[Jem'Hadar]]
 
====''LC''====
This is short hand for "lacking categories", meaning I've likely added the [[Template:Lacking categories|Lacking categories]] template because I'm unable to determine an appropriate category for the page or image I've come across.
 
====What's the difference between ''[[Template:stub|stub]]'' and ''[[Template:Expansion needed|Expansion needed]]''?====
Length. Pages with [[Template:Expansion needed]] are long enough to be sufficient on their own, but may be expanded upon with new information from each ship (if you've encountered a species from the ILI for example, you can go ahead and add this new information so long as you reference what sim that information comes from).
 
Stubs are typically very short and lack useful information pertaining to the article.
 
=====Why have you marked a page as "stub"?=====
If I've gone ahead and added [[Template:stub]] to a page, it is lacking information regarding the topic or is simply too short (only one or two sentences long) to be it's own specific page right now. You can edit a page to add more information, and therefore remove <nowiki>{{stub}}</nowiki> from the top of the page.
 
====What's the difference between ''[[Template:Categorize|categorize]]'' and ''[[Template:Lacking categories|Lacking categories]]''?====
Difficulty.
 
Pages with [[Template:Categorize]] just need basic, easy to find categories to bring them in line with every other page like them. Think of these pages as being Categorization Training - Easy Mode.
 
Pages with [[Template:Lacking categories]] have content so obscure or unique that at the time of adding the template, I lacked credible categories to put on them. Think of these pages as part of Categorization Training - Hard Mode. That's why there's a wiki event and [[Player achievements/Wiki Events|player achievement]] for adding categories to a certain number of these pages. Because I know they're not as easy to find categories for.
 
=== Other FAQs ===
 
====Can I use other people's page structure/take stuff from other people's pages?====
''Yes you can.'' Feel free to "borrow" wiki code from whoever or whatever page on the wiki to set up a page how you like.
 
However, be aware that if you take code/content from somewhere other than the SB118 wiki, attribute the content to them or try to ask them if you can use it.
 
====How do I get the same thing on all pages without having to edit all the pages?====
You can create a '''template''', which can be displayed on all pages but edited only from it's source. These can be created by making a page named ''Template:[name]''. They can be displayed by typing ''{{[name]}}''. They're edited like any other page.
 
====My character page uses the Surname, Given-name convention.====
This needs to be changed so your page can be linked through the roster templates (and its easier for your fellow simmers to include the page in their bios).


====Template categorizing====
All simmers whom have a user account on our wiki can move their pages - this can be done by clicking the '''move''' tab next to ''history'' (for power users/administrators, this is next to the ''delete'' button - ''please don't accidentally delete pages''). Enter your characters name in the correct format, be sure to tick "Move subpages" assuming you have the option, and the wiki will move your page to the correct title, leaving a redirect behind.  
I've started putting star system templates such as [[Template:Luxis|these]] into their own category, [[:Category:Star system templates]]. All available templates found from the pages in [[:Category:Systems|systems]] have been added up till the E section.
<nowiki>
<noinclude>
[[Category:Star system templates]]

==Trivia==
===Duty Post===
*At some point before joining Starfleet initially, Blake was a gymnast.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-invicta/82BL2DcI5oA/azexbKsNAwAJ ''"Cakapunnual."''], LtCmdr S.Blake, {{USS|Invicta}}, SD 239311.20</ref>
{|
*When [[Zhou Tai-Sheng]] shows up at the Ornaran bar Blake frequents, he orders a Xarantine ale. Blake's first mission in the fleet was {{USS|Challenger|A}}'s [[Between a Rock and a Hard ? (Challenger-A)|Between a Rock and a Hard ?]], where the Challenger was tasked with mediating a dispute between the [[Klingon]]s and the [[Xarantine]].
|{{VPA|Rules of engagement}}
*Blake remembers piloting techniques from a [[Dero Goi|helm officer]] she served with, but not his name.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-invicta/TyBxq6PJN6I/EZiEVD8kBgAJ ''"Running out of paddles."''], LtCmdr S.Blake, {{USS|Invicta}}, SD 239309.27 <br><small>''What could only be described as an excellent yet batty warp jump (rivalling some pilot skills from a man whose name she couldn't possibly remember for the life of her), she'd almost fallen off her chair.''</small></ref>
|{{PA|Reinventing the wheel}}
*Despite being a Starfleet officer, Blake expresses to [[Mei'konda]] that during her years on Veritas and the Syracuse, she couldn't remember a time where Starfleet overall was helpful.<ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-veritas/bQTqzxA-T_Y/s18GuHH8BgAJ ''"Woe is Starfleet."''], LtCmdr S.Blake, {{USS|Veritas}}, SD 239402.10</ref>
|{{VPA|Well connected}}
*The sim title "Grey-blue distance" is a low-key reference to iconic Australian poem [http://www.dorotheamackellar.com.au/archive/mycountry.htm ''My country''] by Dorothea Mackellar. In the sim, Blake even utters the lines "I love a sunburnt country".<ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-veritas/lSalaYq_8q0/Mo42jl8LCQAJ ''"Grey-blue distance."''], LtCmdr S.Blake, {{USS|Veritas}}, SD 239411.02<br><small>'''''Blake:''' I love a sunburnt country. Where I grew up on Brekka wasn't exactly a desert or a tropical jungle, but it's definitely warmer than this.''</small></ref>
|{{PA|Case closed}}
*The sim "A New Year" was written during and referenced Melbourne's 2018 New Years celebrations (of which was televised).<ref>[https://groups.google.com/d/msg/sb118-veritas/fIv7lyYJL54/FePKEIQgBAAJ ''"A New Year.''"], LtCmdr S.Blake, {{USS|Veritas}}, SD 239501.01 <br><small>''She moved around from behind the counter, the new years celebrations with some very tall, very colourful people wearing large clogs singing something about surviving on the view screen in the background.''</small></ref>
|{{PA|Arresting officer}}
*Blake's quarters being located on Deck 4 is a running gag, as deck 4 of the {{USS|Challenger|A}} and the {{USS|Ronin}} was constantly destroyed/flushed out into space.
|}
*As she's assigned to the Bajak Laut sector, Blake's title is technically "Bajak Laut Ranger" - which literally translates to "Pirate Ranger".
