Title: Military Conflict Info Boxes
Post by: Snail on February 24, 2008, 03:21:59 pm

I've added a temporary "idea" thing to the talk page of the Battle of Deneb (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Battle_of_Deneb_%282367%29) page. It's like the Wikipedia info boxes but with FreeSpace. Please check it out. Talk page (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Talk:Battle_of_Deneb_%282367%29). In future we could use the same template as the Wikipedia ones to make it easier to put things into the "Battle of..." pages.

Looks like a nice idea. As long as everything is canon there shouldn't be any problems.

Yeah... Though i'm not sure we need to use wikipedia's templates as it aint really that difficult to make something on your own.

I think these should be used. I posted a modified version of Snail's idea on the talk page. (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Talk:Battle_of_Deneb_%282367%29)

A "Related Missions" section could be interesting. Dunno if it would be useful enough to spend the extra time on, though.

Yes, a "Related Missions" section could be a good idea, but then the infobox would be even bigger, so I suggest we get rid of all nonessential participants like the cruisers. Instead, we could simply make a list or, better, put those ship names into coherent sentences, describing what they did and when.

I've got Info boxes also for the missions. I've slapped it onto the talk page of the Campaign Walkthrough (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Talk:Campaign_Walkthrough). We could add them to the missions.

The loadout table looks crap, but IMO the other two are ok.
