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 talk page. If you have content you'd like to be added to a species page, add it (please cite your sources using the references template, especially if your content is in-sim).
- Template:ILI format
- Pages restructured:
Template categorizing
I've started putting star system templates such as these into their own category, Category:Star system templates. All available templates found from the pages in systems have been added up till the E section. <noinclude> [[Category:Star system templates]] </noinclude>
