Index of Artefacts

Hiran,

I worked out how to make the OXPNote on your Index of artefacts page show up. I also added an Overview to explain things to the uninitiated.

The template which you added at the top of your page was devised by Christian Treczoks for his monumental index of the galactic systems (He did the first two galaxies, Phkb finished the job some years later). If you are using it too, maybe we should consider modifying it. Any ideas?

I believe with the index being browsable on Github directly now the need for the same page in the wiki has vanished. https://ooliteproject.github.io/oolite-expansion-catalog/

Hiran, there is no longer a need as such. But, one of the interesting things about Oolite is how it has developed since 2004. And what people see fit to work on at different times. So the history tab of the current wiki page gives a snapshot for May 2023. Just as the Oosat site gives a snapshot for Oct 2006.

Your addition to OXP howto‎

Might it make sense if I eliminated the "cookbook" heading, adding your note instead into a new HUDs subsection under Helpful OXPs for your OXP?

It would need to mention that: 1) It is not an OXP & 2) It is a Joystick Precision Indicator (not a generic dial). I'll also mention the HUDSelector OXP and its ability to change the scanner settings.

I do like your "Cookbook" heading but am unsure how it applies here, with the Helpful OXPs for your OXP section. Or should I just rename that to "Cookbook"?

I believe as we collect more and more 'recipies' we will need to arrange them into a page of their own - maybe even several pages. For only a handful I do not see the need to move them away, but you likely have a clearer picture what that page's content should be.

He's left you a message on the Talk:Branding wiki page! It now has my lengthy tutorial beneath it.
