Junkyard Lynx (1 link)
Blade Liger (1 link)
Cold Cat Spaceworks (1 link)
These three belong to Dakota.
Once we're finished these, then we can kick the Fenwiki De-Stub Project up a notch... I had the junkyard lynx page deleted, the other two I'm not quite ready to add. I'm going to go remove the [[ ] from them so they don't show up as red links.

This one's my baby. Guess I'd better write it.
Done. And then there were twelve...

Dakota and Dartz will post this when it's written, and not a day before that!

Once we're finished these, then we can kick the Fenwiki De-Stub Project up a notch... took the [[ ] tags off this as well. Plan on rewriting the story from the ground up.

I don't remember who came up with the whole WaaPE/Babylon.5 thing, and nobody's doing anything with them nowadays... Should we just pull the links? I pulled the links off this one, also.
And now we're down to ten http://www.fenspace.net/index.php5?titl ... antedPages]Wanted pages, two of which already have owners.

It looks like Dakota has plans for this page.

Made a stub page for them. Also corrected the spelling in the name and it's links.

And I just posted a writeup of the Archer-class, after an email exchange with Mal. Seven pages to go - we're so close to zero, I can almost taste it ...
Speaking of that email exchange, let's take another look at the scorecard:
Type-7 shuttle (6 links)
NOMAD (1 link)
Shuttlepod (1 link)
Mal will take a swing at these three - at least to the "stub" stage.
Motoroid (6 links)
This one still belongs to Dartz.
Russian Federal Space Agency (25 links)
Mal has no prior claim to this one. Who wants it?
China National Space Administration (21 links)
Taiwan National Space Organization (21 links)
Still up for grabs. Who wants either or both of them?

Having trouble defining the motoroid. I know what they *are*.... I just want to define them as something obviously different from anything in Fenspace and that's proving kinda hard....

That's it for Wanted Pages (giving Mal and Dartz time to write theirs), but I forgot about Wanted Files...
Belt United.png

These are astroball team logos
Itsuki Koizumi.jpg
Kyon.jpg
Miyu Glear.jpg
Ryoko Asakura.jpg
These are characters who are lookalikes to their fictional counterparts (possibly with a few years of growth for the two guys; the gals are Professor-series AIs).
I would prefer not to raid fan sites for these, since we're making these images available under a Creative Commons license.

Here's the difficult one – it's a space station that's a kludge of hastily-'waved parts, but still has a Trekkie sensibility to it.
And, of course, there's the Stubs (currently 127 of them - but many of those already belong to particular writers)...

Roskosmos logo is good - Russian law places it out-of-copyright.
CNSA, NSPO, NASA, and JAXA logos are copyrighted. We didn't have the NASA logo; I've removed the others.
Wikipedia claims the Indian Space Research Organisation logo "does not meet the threshold of originality needed for copyright protection, and is therefore in the public domain." However, they say the same thing about the Flag of Canada, which I know damn well is still under Crown Copyright, so I need an independent verification of that logo's copyright status. For now, it's still on the FenWiki.

I just removed the redlinks for these four. We all know what they look like (or can find images of them on the World-Wide Wasteoftime), and if anybody ever does provide images of them, that person can put the links back.
So we're down to three wanted illustrations...

Here's a list of fifty-six available stubs (defining "available" as "not part of something that a still-active Fenspace Collective member is responsible for") – roughly 44% of the total list of stubs. (Mal, BA, Bob, Warringer, and I have some work to do in clearing that other 56%.) I've highlighted a few that might be of more importance than the others:

I just spent a few hours cleaning up a noticeable fraction of the Category tags... Location pages are now tagged into the most-specific applicable category, not into all (or some) of the possible categories.
And, since there are more than a few locations connected to them, the http://www.fenspace.net/index.php5?title=Belters]Belters now have a navbox and a category.
The count of Pages in Need of Cleanup has increased from 20 to 74 - there are more SolStation/Wikipedia data-dumps and point-form pages on the FenWiki than I thought there were. (And it would have been 75, except that I'm going to clean up Zeta (1) Reticuli...)

I've spent a few hours mining the http://ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/sbdb.cgi]JPL Small-Body Database for data... The asteroids and Pluto now have consistent and most-current data for orbits in AUs (semi-major axis to three decimal places and eccentricity to three decimal places), diameter in km to two decimal places when known, length of year in Earth days to two decimal places, and length of day in hours to three decimal places when known. (However, the length of day for 498 Tokio, 1186 Turnera, 2090 Mizuho, and 2138 Swissair are based on fragmentary data, so they may be wrong. Periodic updates will always be necessary.)

"Crystal Cities" now has some content instead of being a redirect to Venus. "Cloud Cities" now redirects to Crystal Cities.
Since this is one of the pages linked directly from the main page, I suppose somebody should create an illustration for it... Is anyone else going to beat me to that? (Especially since the next Fenspace image I intend to create is related to the Ravenmoon Tarot project, so this won't happen immediately if I have to do it.)

Created two new bottom-of-page navboxes: Mars and L5.
(And looking at the pages on one of those navboxes, combined with remembering the Senshi's usual hangout, made me realize: Men went to Mars, Women went to Venus. Somebody took that book too literally.)
Also created some redirects and stubbed a character page, so we're back down to 12 Wanted Pages... all of which Comrade Fnord is responsible for. (We were down to three... now we're back to 12... )

Fixed, mainly just by removing links.
Rob, I get that you don't want to see any redlinks on the wiki, but when I put something on my talk page and mark it as speculative or may-not-actually-happen I neither expect nor demand those links to be filled. If they do get filled, it'll be a huge-ass retcon and I'll post it here first for discussion.

I keep using the same guy for "hard luck" images on the FenWiki, so he may as well be Fenspace's "hard luck" poster boy Murphy Murphy... Now he is.

I just renamed "Fenspace Technology" to "Fenspace Science and Technology" so we'd have someplace to list the new Biology page.
I also did some tidying of "Fenspace Science and Technology" - but it's still a Page in Need of Cleanup for being nothing but a list.
