Almost Done

[dcorrin]

I have almost finished the administrative work. Currently I am just finishing up the infoboxes (most of which will be imported from the traveller wikia). All the category templates, editing templates, help pages, etc. are done.
When I am finished these last (and Hunter has filled out the Privacy Policy), we should be good to launch.

We should also bring the current articles up to spec before opening this to the general community.

Does that mean that we have to READ the entries... all of them... almost sounds like homework

Does this also mean that Moot members get to playtest?

All 56 of them? That does seem like a tall order... I was actually referring to the authors of the articles fixing them up (Right Gruffy?)

Actually what people should read are the help pages (yes all 7 of these).

One of my other wikis (http://traveller.wikia.com) has 4,564 pages, even I haven't read all of them...

The "other wiki" is the one I was talking about..
I think I have had about 3000 edits on that one...

We are done now. Just waiting for Hunter to provide content on a couple of pages, and open the wiki up.

How are we going to do the subsector maps?

Take a look at the entry for Regina/subsector and let me know if you want to use this or the image map (which I think was of Cronor Subsector in the "other Wiki").

Also, will the InfoboxSubsectorSimple template get used here?

As Hunter seems to have no time/interest/? in opening up the wiki I don't know if it matters, but we would need the permission of Rindis to use his maps here. I would suggest these for now. I had not thought about the Subsector templates as yet.

There's a second Traveller Wiki? T_T

Sure, I have scads of free time to devote to an extra project or two.</sarcasm>

Seriously, I'm fine with importing the images to a second site like this. In fact, about the only thing I really ask before anything of mine is used elsewhere is that you tell me where first, so I can admire the beauty of it in it's new home. And I can probably do any needed tweaks off-the-cuff, as long as I know what's needed.

Speaking of which, what's the difference in mission statement between the two?
