==Work in Progress...==
==See Also==
After some long thought, I've come to the decision that the ILI would be best served on the Wiki where everyone could update it and take part in the process. There would need to be some minor 'checks,' to avoid any serious issues, but for the most part I think it will be successful. Here's how it's going to work:
* '''[[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.


===Main Listing===
[[Category:Intelligent Lifeform Index|*]]
The main listing of species, which will be the "jumping off point," will be a protected page. Only admins will be able to edit that, and even then we'll be able to see if it's been edited by the "Recent Changes" page and keeping it on our watchlist. In that way, we can control the intregrity of the "Playable"/"Restricted"/"Forbidden" categories of each species. The complete listing of species with their indicators is here:

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.
