The '''[http://www.starbase118.net/academy/library/alien/ILI/ Intelligent Lifeform Index]''' (ILI) is UFOP's central database of Intelligent Aliens which can be used for role playing in our organization. This ILI is still in its infancy, so we need help to refine and complete it. This area of the wiki is used to update and create database entries.

== Creating Database Entries ==
==See Also==
If you find that we're missing a species, you are more than welcome to compile an entry to be used in the ILI.
* '''[[A handy guide to the Intelligent Lifeform Index]]:''' A starting point to more about updating the ILI.
** '''[[Intelligent Lifeform Index/Wiki edit guidelines and canon|Editing guidelines]]''': What can be added to the ILI.
** '''[[ILI:Creating species entries|Creating species entries]]:''' A detailed tutorial on how to create a new species page.
* Other categories of ILI entries:
** [[:Category:Non-Reviewed Species|Non-Reviewed Species]]
** [[:Category:Non-Canon Species|Non-Canon Species]]: This is a listing for species which are [[non-canon]]. They may or may not be playable.
** [[ILI:List of omitted species]]: This is the list of species that we need to add to the ILI. If you find a missing species, add it to this list.
** [[ILI:Species being edited]]: This is the list of species which are currently in process of being edited. To create a new entry for a species, go to this page, add the species name, and then link to it and start editing.


First, be sure that you have all the necessary information. The list below shows the information we need to start an entry:
[[Category:Intelligent Lifeform Index|*]]
 
* Species complete name
* Relation to the Federation (Member, Allied, Netural, At War, Noncommunicative, Unknown, Other)
* Planet of Origin
* Encounter log
** Here, you would include [[IC]], and [[OOC]] information. IC, you'd give the first time that we saw the species onscreen, and what the situation was. OOC, you'd give the episode name and series (i.e.- [[TOS]], [[TAS]], [[TNG]], [[DS9]], [[VOY]], [[ENT]]).
* Current Tech Level
** For more info, see the [[Planetary Development Scale]]
* Description
** Include any and all information that is pertinent and useful.
* Picture (if you have one).
 
Now that you have this information, you can post it on the Wiki. The first step is to head to the [[ILI:Species being edited]] page to include the name of the species you have information on. (Be sure to, of course, link to the page with that species' information.) Then, save the edit and go to that page. Insert all of the information you have on the species. Now it will be available for others to help you refine and edit that profile. Once it is complete, a staff member will move the information to the official ILI.

Playability Designation

The playability designation is the marker for which species can be used as primary characters in SIM. There are four basic markers:

ILI-Permitted.png ILI-Restricted.png
Green: Permitted
  • Species in this category are playable by all members.
  • If you're looking for a species to play as a primary character, check out the Permitted Species Gallery.
Yellow: Restricted
  • These species can only be played with a staff member's permission, and cannot ordinarily be played as your player character (PC).
  • If you would like to play a member of a restricted species as your PC, a formal process applies. Please see here for more information.
ILI-Forbidden.png ILI-ToBeDetermined.png
Red: Forbidden
  • Any species listed in this category are barred from being played by any members except in NPC, short-term capacities. This may be due to super-powers (Qs), or villain status (Borg).
Blue: Non-Reviewed
  • Non-Reviewed Species are those which have not been reviewed by the Captains Council and thus have not been designated with a playability rating.
  • These species can only be played with a staff member's permission, and cannot ordinarily be played as your player character (PC).
  • If you would like to play a member of a non-reviewed species as your PC, a formal process applies. Please see here for more information.
