A '''writer ID''' number (also known as an '''author ID''' or a '''fleet writer serial''') is a unique ten digit code associated with each specific member of UFOP: StarBase 118. Writer ID numbers are utilized to track contributions by community members across ships and characters, ensuring that contributions are searchable OOC. Every writer is assigned one writer ID number, which should be appended to their email signature for all emails sent on fleet channels. | |||

'' | ''The writer ID number is for '''OOC (out of character)''' identification purposes only. It differs from a [[StarFleet Serial Number Register|Starfleet Serial Number]], which is for '''IC (in character)''' purposes only. Your writer ID number should always be included in your signature each time you send an email to one of UFOP: Starbase 118's mailing lists. This number is never used in character in the body of a SIM and belongs to a writer rather than a character. You will be given a writer ID number when you join the fleet, which will not change for as long as you are a member.''}} | ||
