busy

been busy I see. :) 9-2-06 A_H

yes, I had a calling, after a nice meal of mostly peppers, onions and garlic (all of which are severely frowned upon by my sect due to their powers of stimulation and 'unease' to the brain) and needed to see the Classic shipyard homaged. they're all just stubs though. care to give a hand? :) --Murgh 16:15, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

I haven't got the Elite-A experience...I might rip-off several of the ships for racers though. ;) A_H

ps could write in some of the classic material though....

pps The Monitor looks good too.hmmmmm

grief

so BTW this file is cursed

this is A_H version

cursed I tell you!

Hmm, look at the mainpage...the transparent parts of the PNG's are white iso greyish. Maybe we should just make the transition to gif (without semitransparent rim). A_H

p.s. Why isn't my cursor blinking here?

p.p.s The white background thing is probly due to MS-IE. :@

Cholmondeley's edit (2020)

Added in a list of oxp's culled from the OXPList. Unsure how many were actually Murgh's.

Cholmondelian comment

Overjoyed to see that you are willing dip your toes back into editing our wiki - even if you ultimately decide to never venture beyond your own user:page!

I've never worked on one before, but have done a literally horrendous amount of work on ours over the past year. I hope I've improved things and hope that I've made it a bit more readable, but as a native English speaker with the traditional English incomprehension of foreign languages, worry if it is as helpful as it might be. What makes sense as a new page heading to me might very well not to others. I've also been trying to slip some humour in, here and there. An experienced eye is more than welcome, even if all you wish to do is offer suggestions or pointers.

Very luckily, Montana05 has been working on the ships.oxp pages and has an understanding of how they all fit together. Personally, I feel that the Category:Oolite scripting pages are a bit of a disaster - I have found it almost impossible to learn anything worthwhile from them. Hence my continual additions of bits and bobs culled from the BB (but I lack the context to do anything more than just add).

Montana05, as mentioned above, has been vital in updating the ships pages. Hiran was a star - he got the bit between his teeth and created a computerised contraption which filleted the oxz's, identifying the ships and the equipment. We then worked together on putting all the OXZ names listed on the in-games expansions manager on the wiki, together with all the equipment.

I've also been trying (slowly) to ensure that there are pages for all the people who have added significantly to Oolite, whether as Developers or OXP writers.

Our wiki currently has just over 6000 pages. I've created a thousand of those (probably mostly redirects). Around 2,000 are taken up by Treczoks's Sector/System listings. The last great spurt of wiki work (judging merely by page creation) seems to me to have been c. 2012 (Maik et al). There was some sustained work on categorisation back c.2016 (Debresser).

As I say, I've never worked on a wiki before. Merely taught a little philosophy & history, a little philosophy of history & history of philosophy, and some philosophy of the history of philosophy... and history of the philosophy of history...

Current major project is trying to dig up "lost oxp's" and link them in the wiki.
