With a deep abiding loathing of grammatical infelicities and typographical misdeeds, Cholmondeley is slowly assaulting the pages of this Wikipedia in an attempt to bring serenity and grammatical glory to its contents.

If you can replace any of my ghastly screenshots with a better, please do so!

Some of the New Wiki pages

  • Torus Drive felt this was very much needed (I spent about a month with Shaky Drive .oxp installed - thanks to Norby's combination packs - and could not work out why I was not flying normally! - scoured the wiki, found nothing)
  • Buttonboxes raising awareness of putative Astrogation Panels
  • User:Dybal - wanted to encourage the chap but very worried that I may have trodden on his corns instead!
  • User:Stranger & some of his OXPs: felt need to raise awareness: virtually nothing on wiki

Major Edits

  • Adding links & lists of relevant OXPs to Hyperspace/Quirium/Witch Fuel Injectors etc
  • Sorting out the various Rock Hermit (Oolite) pages and their OXPs
  • Sorting out the ghastly Lave & Tionisla messes with lavish linking
  • More links for the Career Options page
  • Added in gubbins on the History of Oolite
  • Links for downloading older versions of Oolite
  • Trying to raise awareness of SOTL and Strangers World.
  • Editing various user pages and then pm-ing the people in a desperate attempt to draw them back. People are important and deserve recognition for the things they do right. I'm fed up with only ever blaming people for things they do wrong.
  • Rescued the joystick page from being a redirect, bunged in pictures & links to Linux page & Dizzy's page (& the Mac Thrustmaster Harness).

To do

  • Finish Stranger's oxp pages
  • Do Redspear's oxp pages
  • Sort out the muddle with 4/5 different library pages (the .oxp, ship's library, spara's technical library, etc.)
  • Go over ship's basic equipment pages with new pages for installed stuff (like the Torus Drive) and with links to relevant .oxp's
  • Enliven the Sector1/Digebiti page
