==Utopia Planitia==
David, while I don't have a problem with you putting up information on Utopia Planitia, part of what we're trying to do here on the wiki is not duplicate information that is in abundance elsewhere on the web. You only have a couple of sentences, which are only a very small part of what others have done, such as the memory alpha site. When possible, try linking to there or elsewhere instread of retyping known information. Like this <nowiki>[http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Utopia_Planitia]</nowiki>, or <nowiki>[http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Utopia_Planitia_Fleet_Yards]</nowiki>.<br>-[[User:Varaan|Varaan]] 15:19, 7 June 2006 (CDT)


Oh that was my fault entirely. I started out to do something and stopped for the same reason that was brought up. Meant to take down the article or redirect it to Memory Alpha. [[User:DCody|DCody]] 04:48, 14 November 2006 (CST)

== Ship Histories ==
== wiki ethos ==
David,


Where did you get that ship name from? Just curious as I've been wanting to try and get a page up for each vessel for ages and I can find very little about some ships, wondering if you've found a source I may have missed - [[User:Salak|<font color="FF8C00">Lt.JG Salak</font>]][[Image:Nav-independence.jpg|USS Independence|35px]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 10:49, 11 November 2006 (CST)
Think you're wiki admin staff too right? If so... could I ask you to take a peak at my message to Commander Varaan & Lieutenant Sarak:-
:Sure it's not an NPC ship then? You've listed Solstice under lost or decommissioned but it could be inactive instead. See Wallace for example, twice decommissioned in the group but technically "inactive" as it's now an NPC ship. I don't know cos I've not seen the context but if there's any more than a ship name? - [[User:Salak|<font color="FF8C00">Lt.JG Salak</font>]][[Image:Nav-independence.jpg|USS Independence|35px]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 14:10, 12 November 2006 (CST)


In terms of the Xanth being assigned to the Colony originally, it's most likely the latter case, where it fell to becoming an NPC ship. In terms of the Solstice, because I only have an old website that lists it as a part of the UFOP, there's not enough information to determine whether it's inactive, so I consider it "lost/decommissioned" as it only listed the Capt. designated (and missing the crew). Word of note, if you're after ship/crew histories, the yahoogroups inactive ships are public. What you'll find is with some ships, they went under an original name and then were referred to by a new name/designation (such as in the case of the USS Nemesis, which became the USS Defiance, then to the USS Nemesis-B. And when Demma got in touch with me, I invited him to come to the Wiki as he has a more thorough knowledge of some of the older ships. [[User:DCody|DCody]] 16:49, 12 November 2006 (CST)

I've just added a question there for you all... is there any other wiki staff? If so, perhaps they could glance over it too?


== Indy roster ==
Cheers for your help.


I thought he'd transfered across? He replied to the roll call asking for how often can be posted, was listed in Sid's crew roster on the townhall list (seemingly without protest) and it makes sense given the Direct OOC's between Jessa and myself about the department recently. Can't find the "welcome aboard" note on townhall but Idril welcomed him aboard IC and he's signed posts as Engineer, DS17 instead of Ursa Major as his profile lists. Oh, and after more than half a year on the same posting (admittedly including a lengthy LOA on my part), you still can't spell my main characters name correctly ;) - [[User:Salak|<font color="FF8C00">Lt.JG Salak</font>]][[Image:Nav-independence.jpg|USS Independence|35px]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 05:55, 28 November 2006 (CST)

== Ithassa ==
== Link to a slideshow ==


I've changed the template back to nearer the old style if that's ok, though I've moved the link to the map into the header bit. Any reason for the red bar across the top of the [[Ithassa Region]] page? - [[User:Salak|<font color="FF8C00">Lt.JG Salak</font>]][[Image:Ronin.jpg|USS Ronin|35px]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 10:52, 20 December 2006 (CST)
I created a slideshow/movie and put it on You Tube. You can watch it by doing a search for USS Indria. Now I want to put either the show or the link on the Indria's main wiki page. Is that possible?

Sorry, I'm not sure what you're talking about. Can you clarify? --[[User:FltAdml. Wolf|Wolf]] /<sup>[[User talk:FltAdml. Wolf|talk page]]</sup> 23:37, 22 September 2007 (CDT)
== Your request to view the Ixvapyans and Gambians ==


:Ah, I see. Hmm... I'll have to look around and see what I have. I'm a packrat, but I haven't even looked at my "old"/archiving folders that had all that stuff. It may be corrupted by now. --[[User:FltAdml. Wolf|Wolf]] /<sup>[[User talk:FltAdml. Wolf|talk page]]</sup> 16:21, 29 December 2007 (CST)
First of all, thanks for your invitation to me to view these pages. Both look very well structured and have a great design. I must use such a template for my Illumini as well, once I have the time.


::On review, it looks like the bulk of what I have in terms of sims is from 99 going forward. I do have a bunch of sims from the Ranger around 1996, however, but no chat sims as far as I can tell. The only other things I could find were applications going back to 06/95. --[[User:FltAdml. Wolf|Wolf]] /<sup>[[User talk:FltAdml. Wolf|talk page]]</sup> 16:33, 29 December 2007 (CST)
I especially like the Gambians page since it is filled with species information in great detail. I actually managed to get a great mental picture of the species, well done. The Ixvapyans page is still somewhat empty, but I have no fear this one will also be filled with the right information.


== Links ==
If it is constructive criticism you require, there is one big point and one smaller one for you. Let's start with the bigger one shall we :-) When using a Wikipedia, one of its most used features are the blue links that refer to further information on a subject. i.e: 'The species [[Illumini]] are a race which are members of the [[ma:Federation|Federation]]'. When you type this, one can click onboth the Illumini and Federation part to get more Wiki info on those two subjects. You have not really used this function. If you want an example, look at my Illumini species profile, then you'll get the point. In your species text of the Gambians, there is for instance the text: 'They have existed within the FTU Core Worlds for as long as they can remember, always within the capacity of the service and when gathered, in their Assemble Crafts.' you could use this function to give people the ability to click on 'FTU Core Worlds' to look up what these are exactly. Do you understand what I mean?


Just a quick note: no spaces on either side of the bar | in qualified links. i.e.- this: <nowiki>[[Wolf, Tristan|Tristan Wolf]]</nowiki> NOT this: <nowiki>[[Wolf, Tristan | Tristan Wolf]]</nowiki>. --[[User:FltAdml. Wolf|Wolf]] /<sup>[[User talk:FltAdml. Wolf|talk page]]</sup> 12:40, 5 January 2008 (CST)
Second, but very small and I have no doubt you guys are already working on it, most people like to see a visual on the subject they are reading. That is why I used an image of a Illumini (actually a Iceman drawing I found on google), which gives an overall better picture of how exactly I want people to 'see' my species.


== Starbase 118 The Black Tower ==

David, can you elaborate what you're thinking on this? If there's more than two pages in a series of articles, then a category first, and a nav panel if there's a half-dozen or more, and it will help people move around the articles :)  --[[User:FltAdml.

:Ah, think I know what you mean. I toyed with a generic page when trying to plan for the Indy-A wiki page before launch. If you mean a generic text with the usual nav and boiler then I certainly won't oppose an attempt. Of course, some ships have far longer pages than others already, so we might be looking at a generic stub that we can gradually add to? - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.JG Salak</font>]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 10:14, 11 January 2008 (CST)

I've never encountered either character before. I'm happy for either to be incharge of blacktower. Who created the two NPCs? Perhaps we can give them slightly different jobs. They should, however, hold marine ranks.

== Indy-A & such ==


== New Categories ==
Hi there! I was actually on the Indy-A during that mission. It was interesting because we had all simmed it as having been destroyed but then Kolk added that twist. Either way, though, our characters thought it was destroyed at least. Perhaps the wiki page should be updated to reflect this either directly or in a "OOC background" note. As for what's on Riley's page, looks like that was written by Maggie herself from her old page based on the page history. Feel free to correct it!

== Ithassa Location ==
== FNS ==


Just looking through [[:Category:Star Charts maps]], the same charts used to show the location of StarBase 118. [[:Image:SFMap-part4.jpg]] is an overview of known space, and was thinking where the region fits in, given the main species about. The big blue area is the Federation. With the orange bit bottom left being Tholian, there's a nice looking blank bit above that and left of "Chart 3" which could be the location. In addition, I think I recall Breen being mentioned on Indy not too long ago (TE IV mission?). They're the big brownish area above the space.
Nice article! Feel free to cross post it in the FNS forum! [[User:Rich|'''♫ Rich''']] ▪ [[118Wiki:Administrators|<small>118Wiki Administrator</small>]] [[User talk:Rich|<small>Send Message</small>]] 22:07, 13 July 2015 (CDT)

The problem is the Gorn and the Tzenkethi. The Tzenkethi are the little yellow blob on the border between charts 1 & 3, which isn't TOO far away, but is still probably not close enough to really be thought of as in the region. The peach blob below them are the Cardassians with the Talarians the light blue below that. I'm not aware that either have been mentioned in the region. Worse; the Gorn seem to be the gray patch to the bottom right of the big blue circle (marking 250ly from Sol) on the overview, below Klingon space, a long, long way from the area. The scale is also an issue... the gap in question is only about 75ly wide and perhaps 120 ly long. That is still about 4 sectors by 6 sectors = a fair 24 sectors (assuming only one thick in height). The specs on the Ithassa Region suggest the region is perhaps the size of the entire Federation (~ 750ly x 750ly?) on those star maps.
== Your email address is visible on the wiki ==


Alternatively, there's a nice blue bit between the Tholians and Gorn, but it's even further from the Tzenkethi and has the little issue of a huge Klingon border along the top edge. Plus, being blue, it's certainly Federation space, likely has member worlds within it and is likely quite explored already, what with being between Earth and such places as the Mutara Nebula, Ceti Alpha, Rigel, Cestus III...  - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.

Seems a little bizarre. - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt. Salak</font>]][[Image:Nav-paladin.jpg|35px|USS Independence-A]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 17:40, 3 April 2008 (EDT)
::Further to that: Could be that DS17 was left as a sole outpost given its' study of Eratis (see sims linked above), but why the decommissioning at that time? Possibly a withdrawl of personel due to a military build up for the Cardassian Wars, but they were still at least a decade away. - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.

:::By the way, I've begun a draft rewrite of [[Ithassa Region]] at [[User:Salak/Ithassa]]. Anything above the line is rewritten. Might be worth comparing to whatever idea you have for the article, see if they can be combined? Also, having looked at the number of links to various redirects to the Battle of DS17, I've moved that article to [[Battle of Eratis]]. As such, it now has the Eratis system layout rather than the DS17 one. I've fleshed out [[Eratis system]] too, though what I added doesn't really contain anything new to the wiki. I ''think'' the observation regarding the Federations presence in the Region is fair to mention. - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.

== Indy section. ==
 
Given I'm on the move to Tiger... Just checking you knew of [[Template:Indy-A Crew]]. That might need updating along with the rosters. It's at the footer of all the Indy PC crew pages, except Quinn's as she didn't like it and removed it. Not perfect, but had perhaps an 80% positive reaction. To see how it looks on a page, see [[Cody, David Scott#Awards & Accomodations|the bottom of your character page]]. Also, the neon on the motto nav bugged me too :) - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.

== Indy roster ==
 
I just noticed that you've made all the other sections of it sortable as well, thought I'd mention a few bugs and fixes. I used the On Leave nav as a testbed, the original testing is at [[118Wiki:Sand Box#Collapsable Indy]]. Pips won't sort unless coded, the ranks will sort alphabetically, not by order and names will sort by first name, not surname. Within the coding, the <nowiki><span style="display:none">1</span></nowiki> stuff is defining where in the column something would appear if sorted by that column. Ranks need to be numbered from top down (i.e. Admirals = 1), and if you go into double figures you'll need to add a 0 in front of numbers below 10 (e.g. 01, 02, 03 ... 09, 10, 11) else it will count 1, 10, 11, 2, 3. Adding <nowiki>class="unsortable" to a column's parameters, such as in the final table (last column is ! style="background:#c4bfb8; width:200px;" class="unsortable" |'''Current Post''' )</nowiki> will mean that although the rest of the table is sortable, that column won't be. Hope that's useful. - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt. Salak</font>]][[Image:Nav-wallace.jpg|30px|USS Tiger]]<sup><i>[[User talk:Salak|Talk]]</i></sup> 09:10, 9 May 2008 (EDT)
:Oh, plus pips won't sort at all without the hidden code bit. I've not edited it btw. Ronin have a sortable roster, I believe we opted against it on Tiger for "ease of editing" reasons. - [[User:Salak|<font color="maroon">Lt.

I assume you didn't mean to file this as a Restricted Species? That's what [[:Category:Restricted]] is. I'd guess you mean it's classified?

:Yeah, ran across that. As an admin, we can restore articles too, they aren't totally lost.

I will rename what ever you want renamed that has been deleted... just let me know... I can and am willing to do so... I thought I was the original creator of the Ga'ter from way back when I joined the USS Triumphant... but I could be wrong... we ran into a character that had no race listed... I gave it a name... I thought it was the Ga'ter... anyway let me know... I will make the changes and do total rewrites of any info refering to the Ithassa Region or the FTU... as I have said... I will never again work on any project... region... area... in any way or form that belongs to someone else... not even with my character... [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] 12:22, 25 July 2008 (EDT)

Also the Prantis... they were only identified as insectoids... I gave them a name and created a system and racial profile... [[User:Canreb|Canreb]] 17:15, 25 July 2008 (EDT)

wiki ethos

David,

Think you're wiki admin staff too right? If so... could I ask you to take a peak at my message to Commander Varaan & Lieutenant Sarak:-

http://wiki.starbase118.net/wiki/index.php?title=User_talk:Varaan#WIKI_ethos

I've just added a question there for you all... is there any other wiki staff? If so, perhaps they could glance over it too?

Cheers for your help.

Link to a slideshow

I created a slideshow/movie and put it on You Tube. You can watch it by doing a search for USS Indria. Now I want to put either the show or the link on the Indria's main wiki page. Is that possible? I've gotten an okay from Cmdr. Assanti. Julia Harden 22:20, 12 December 2008 (EST)

Your request to view the Ixvapyans and Gambians

First of all, thanks for your invitation to me to view these pages. Both look very well structured and have a great design. I must use such a template for my Illumini as well, once I have the time.

I especially like the Gambians page since it is filled with species information in great detail. I actually managed to get a great mental picture of the species, well done. The Ixvapyans page is still somewhat empty, but I have no fear this one will also be filled with the right information.

If it is constructive criticism you require, there is one big point and one smaller one for you. Let's start with the bigger one shall we :-) When using a Wikipedia, one of its most used features are the blue links that refer to further information on a subject. i.e: 'The species Illumini are a race which are members of the Federation'. When you type this, one can click onboth the Illumini and Federation part to get more Wiki info on those two subjects. You have not really used this function. If you want an example, look at my Illumini species profile, then you'll get the point. In your species text of the Gambians, there is for instance the text: 'They have existed within the FTU Core Worlds for as long as they can remember, always within the capacity of the service and when gathered, in their Assemble Crafts.' you could use this function to give people the ability to click on 'FTU Core Worlds' to look up what these are exactly. Do you understand what I mean?

Second, but very small and I have no doubt you guys are already working on it, most people like to see a visual on the subject they are reading. That is why I used an image of a Illumini (actually a Iceman drawing I found on google), which gives an overall better picture of how exactly I want people to 'see' my species.

But again... your pages look great. Actually, better organized then my own lol :-D

Page Creation

That looks like a page that was created but never used for anything. I can't remember why but it can be deleted. - LTjg Turc Brakur

Alright, changing it right now then. Moving right down the list :) Lance 20:43, 2 September 2009 (EDT)

Another question, does that mean the Salak article is no longer featured? If so, I can remove those templates as well. Lance 20:52, 2 September 2009 (EDT)

The relation was the whole point of the character. Please delete.

Re: What kind of Category?

This really shouldn't even be its own page. That kind of information belongs here. --Wolf /talk page 03:56, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Age Template

No worries! I hadn't looked at it for a while since we didn't have the parser to do it properly, so I'm working on it right now (including documentation for it like the other templates I've made). When it's done, I'll add it to a list of templates I've made as well as leave you a message. –Rich(talk page) aka Lt.Cmdr. Rahman/MCpt. Kadosh 08:48, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

Indy-A & such

Hi there! I was actually on the Indy-A during that mission. It was interesting because we had all simmed it as having been destroyed but then Kolk added that twist. Either way, though, our characters thought it was destroyed at least. Perhaps the wiki page should be updated to reflect this either directly or in a "OOC background" note. As for what's on Riley's page, looks like that was written by Maggie herself from her old page based on the page history.

No worries! Our manual of style is here: Federation News Service/Manual of Style.
