Species Development Committee

Revision as of 18:34, 8 January 2012 by Canreb (talk | contribs) (correction)

Welcome to the home of the Species Development Committee. We are responsible for the creation of new species, updating old species and doing rewrites on all species that may require it. Currently the SDC is busy rewriting most of the species entries on the Intelligent Lifeform Index. Anyone can be a member of this team. All we require is an interest in the various species found in the Star Trek universe.

New here?

Just joined UFOP: SB118, and want to help out? You've come to the right place! You must be a full Ensign before you can be a part of a team, but once you are, just head to the Species Development Committee Yahoo! Group and request membership.

Species Projects

Once you have become a member of the SDC you will be able to work on various species projects such as:

  • 1) The creation of brand new species
  • 2) Expanding and rewriting old species entries
  • 3) Adding new data that has been created by players during their simming adventures
  • 4) Researching the internet for data regarding various species

New or Rewritten Species

All these projects go through a few simple steps.

  • 1) Research must be done to find any CANON data that is available. CANON data is anything found in a Star Trek TV episode, Star Trek Movie or written publication authorized by Star Trek, Paramount. This data MUST be included.
  • 2) A wiki page on our own SB118 wiki needs to be created for a new species or you will use the existing wiki page for a species that will be undergoing a rewrite.
  • 3) A under construction banner will be inserted at the top of the page. To do this you will use 2 {UC}
  • 4) A Species Template must be added to the SB118 wiki page for that species and then filled in starting with all CANON data first.
