Talk:Weapons

From DarkSpace WIKI
Jump to: navigation, search

I've added some information about the relevant weapons, I went with a template of beginning with an outline, some statistics, then how the weapon works, finishing off with a hint to the captain/player on what it's good/not so good at doing and then it's requirements/cost.

Is that alright?

I prefer to add a bit lore mixed in with some proper facts... also, shouldn't we have a main Gadgets page that can link to this one and others in the future for other gadgets? Enterprise 17:59, 20 February 2012 (Central Standard Time)

We probably should, but I think we're just filling out information, we might have to split up cannons/missiles/etc onto different pages so I'm just filling in the information as and when, I've also added a template for weapons! See Template:WeaponRight or Template:WeaponLeft to alternate, see how it works? --LittlePetSlinki 18:36, 20 February 2012 (Central Standard Time)

Looks nifty. Should probably do one for ships too, as thats next up after I get through all the gadgets. Though I'm not sure yet if I want to do a Supporting Gadgets for the rest or do like you might do with Weapons and just split it up by type: Beams, Armor and Shields, Engines, etc. Though if we go that route we'll definitely need to create an overall page to link to each one separately for easy navigation. I haven't done it because I think someone could probably format it better than me. Enterprise

-It might be a good idea to have sub sections like beams, cannons, missiles, torps - rather than one long "Weapons". It might be a better idea to link them from here in the interest of keeping things compact Pantheon 20:30, 20 February 2012 (Central Standard Time)

It's just a bit of a copy-paste job fortunately, might get started on it sometime today... Enterprise 13:54, 21 February 2012 (Central Standard Time)

On a note on us splitting it up and segmenting everything, are we going to do what the current history/manual does and sorta get lost in everything? I know wiki's are easily searchable but we need to have some form of (sitemap?) we can run by so we have a general feeling of similarity between pages, so there's always going to be eg: Main/Subsection/Catergory and that's it, or something of that measure. --LittlePetSlinki 16:59, 21 February 2012 (Central Standard Time)
