I'm pulling together details for canon definitions of systems... What I mean by this are where published materials give us full system details.

For example, in MT0219 Knightfall, full system details appear for:
Anamoni Mass 1510 p81
Hasaggan Mass 1711 p82
Ketola Mass 1807 p83
Riarette Mass 1808 p87
Engorr Mass 1809 p85
Madden Mass 1907 p86
Ektorr Mass 1909 p84
Khishan Mass 1910 p88
Iggarir Mass 2007 p89
Irlu Mass 2008 p90
Wikk Mass 2010 p91
Murcia Mass 2109 p92

What I'm looking for are these canonical definitions, to review parsing issue and W values. As I find items or others post, I'll append to the list (or attach a list to this post).

Thanks in advance for help.

Hi Don,

The Wiki has the following records for systems:

[http://wiki.travellerrpg.com/Category:Systems ]

Many of them have decent references (sources) or starting points (leads) for your searches.

I have been slowly upgrading and updating sources for article after article at the Wiki. I am not the only one and I do not want to discount anyone else's work since Peter OGuutan, Thomas Jones-Low, and others have done considerable work in this regard. Some day we'll overcome Jim's impressions of the more poorly-sourced articles. It all takes work.

I also know that Hans Rancke has also done considerable work into system research.

Hope that helps.

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.
 
Jim's not the only one with a bad attitude towards the wiki. I'm the guy who seems to get all the negative e-mails.

:rofl:

And again, the problem I have with the wiki is that it's NOT obvious what information on the page comes from what page reference, which means checking all of them, and then finding that the reference is a non-canon addition.

The wiki is useful as long as you're aware of its limitations.
 
Here is a list I found a while back using the Wayback Machine.

http://www.seemann.ms/worlds.htm

I don't know how complete it is, and it doesn't indicate page numbers, but it *is* as list of published sources that reference specific systems. It's a place to start, anyway.

Cheers,

Baron Ovka
 
Marc and I do from time to time confer. All of that data is either in or superceded.
