Your reorganization of the OXP page is very nice, but it’s got a serious flaw: by requiring information to be updated in multiple places. This won’t work in the long run. I suggest removing all but the main list and using wiki categories for the rest (for instance, see [[:Category:Ship OXPs]], [[:Category:Mission OXPs]], [[:Category:Station OXPs]] and [[:Category:Demo OXPs]]; you can of course add more). Making this work fully requires the fiddly job of creating pages for lots of OXPs and cross-referencing them to the relevant [[:Category:Oolite Ships|ship pages]], or converting the ship pages in the case of single-ship OXPs.

I’m sorry I didn’t catch the issue before, but I really think redundant data on the OXP page will be a problem. That said, it’s not my wiki, so this isn’t an order. I’ll repeat this message on the forum for discussion. -[[User:Ahruman|Ahruman]] 17:32, 11 July 2007 (BST)

Nice, but…

Your reorganization of the OXP page is very nice, but it’s got a serious flaw: by requiring information to be updated in multiple places. This won’t work in the long run. I suggest removing all but the main list and using wiki categories for the rest (for instance, see Category:Ships_OXPs, Category:Missions_OXPs, Category:Dockables_OXPs and Category:Demo OXPs; you can of course add more). Making this work fully requires the fiddly job of creating pages for lots of OXPs and cross-referencing them to the relevant ship pages, or converting the ship pages in the case of single-ship OXPs.

I’m sorry I didn’t catch the issue before, but I really think redundant data on the OXP page will be a problem. That said, it’s not my wiki, so this isn’t an order. I’ll repeat this message on the forum for discussion. -Ahruman 17:32, 11 July 2007 (BST)
