WERE DOIN THIS MAN
WHERE MAKIN THIS HAPPEN

Seriously, I'm up for this.

[Fniff]

Technology, Species, Star Systems, Social Standards and History. That's what I would like everything to be divided into.

Technology, Species, Star Systems, Social Standards and History. That's what I would like everything to be divided into.

As a general category, yes. I could see each page of the wiki fitting into one of those, or a subset of one of those. I think many would fall into more than one - a notable member of a species who started a cultural revolution in the past would fall under Species, Social Standards, and History. If they were also a scientist... technology as well.

Think of it as a mass of knowledge. Ordering it would be possible, certainly, but I'd imagine that would be a task in itself while others worked on simply adding to the mass.

Well, ordering it would help a lot. Plus, they are so general it helps ordering them, so at the start it's perfect.

So do we each get out own page of the wiki for our civilization/star system?

Each civilization will need its own page - once there's enough detail, possibly specific nations/districts of that civilization. Alliances as well. Just imagine Wikipedia and how it's split up. If there's enough information on a subject, it gets a page.

Further, we'll need to figure out how to open up pages for editing. Will authors retain a basic 'authority' over their creations? Etc. Once I get the wiki up running fully, I'll set up some discussion pages specifically for each of these issues.

I like this. I may contribute. But I wanted to mention something: antimatter is more of an energy storage medium, considering the energy required to make it. You can't really just find some and then annihilate it.

[GamerKnight]

This sounds really interesting, I might contribute, where do I sign up?

[Singularity-SRX]

I think I'll try and get as much detail as possible before submitting anything.

Also, I thought this wasn't hard physics?

[Tellemurius]

dibs on a main character XD

[GamerKnight]

I've got an empire set up: Industrious psuedo-hive insectoid species, millions of years of civilisation, converted their entire planet into a massive spaceship and travel the cosmos in their Ship-World harvesting moons and asteroids for raw materials. If this is okay I'll start on a histoy for them.

P.S. This species, and the concept of a Ship-World are MINE to work with. I've had this idea in my head for a month now.

I Smell several galactic wars in history

[GamerKnight]

I will strip entire planets for the Uniklids. (Sound good?)

[Taricus]

yeah the names good, and the Borzori will stop you from stripmining.

[GamerKnight]

My ship will swallow entire worlds into its cargo bay, where the Uniklids will strip them of all life and minerals.
