To Do

Here's an ever-expanding list of everything this wiki needs to be complete.

  • Make sure everything is up to date. Some pages are very old here and may need to be updated.
  • Honestly, almost everything needs improvement overall.
  • Figure out what the main character is called. Adam Roslin's clone? Have a section for other clones?

Pages that need to be created or edited

  • Codex Make sure everything in the codex is on it's respective page. The codex shouldn't really have it's own page, as it has no info for itself, other than the fact that entries are unlocked as the player progresses. Although, maybe we could consolidate all entries onto one page? Would be somewhat redundant.
  • Category: Characters Their respective codex entries on each page obviously, and all the other info. List encounters and dialogue?
  • List of Ship colors? Ship Colors
  • Category:Enhancements - Some more info could be added, maybe. A complete enhancements screen for the picture. Still some subroutines missing.
  • Get a picture of a subroutine hologram in a derelict station.
  • Add more info about colonial warships and derelict stations. Pictures!
  • Ancient Structures From a more official source and in the interest of keeping the wiki consistent, this is their name. "They are largely referred to as Ancient Structures, classified as Ancient Depots, and function as Ancient Warp Gates. Perhaps they should mainly be listed as Ancient Structures, with Ancient Depots and Ancient Warp Gates redirecting to the main article."
  • Okkar (invasions after scanning or taking too long in a region.
  • Okkar ships (Intercepters, fighters, elites, Corvettes, Frigates, drones, etc, do it like Resources) -some of these already exist, just merge them with the new page.
  • Outlaw ships (Fighters, scouts, elites, turrets, missile turrets/silos, drones, Webber Drones)
  • G&B ships (Freighters/transports: Fuel, Credit, resource, might be more. Service stations, fighters, elites, etc.)
  • Category:Player ships - Continue adding loadouts to the respective ships if needed, as well as completing the Perks.
  • What to do with Blueprints or Crafting? Reorganize the pages, at least.
  • Hardcore Mode
  • Containers - G&B, Special Tech, Tech, (Locked?), Normal, any more?
  • More Important locations, like The Lab.
  • Should we put what updated certain items or factions were introduced?
Significant projects
  • Hardcore Mode - Details, have a section for a list of the negative conditions/debuffs you have to choose, not sure what else.
  • Category:Dialogue -Separate into pages for each main character with dialogue.
  • The DNA stuff. How it works, icons, etc.
  • Perks
  • Most perks have been updated, but a ton of information is missing from Colonial Gunship and Colonial Scout. Scout is missing the most.

*All Equipment pages have to be updated. Checked for accurate numbers (stats), manufacturer, descriptions, other info. Fusion Blaster M6-A is a good model page, for the infobox and the information on the page. Devices are pretty much all done except for accurate crafting/salvage and manufacturer.

  • All Equipment probably has outdated crafting and salvaging costs. I accidentally did a lot with 1 level in crafting costs without realizing it. Might be able to see base costs in the hardcore mode hangar.
  • Some consumables like drones or maybe devices like turrets could use some in-game screenshots of them in action.

Things that need some wiki coding skills:

  • Repair amount parameter for equipment infobox (only a number)
  • Manufacturer parameter for equipment infobox (should appear below desc parameter in the infobox, maybe green text? - Could show up as : 'Manufactuer: XXXXXXXX', aligned left)

Good pages to visit for working on the wiki

Thanks for helping if you do. This'll get added on as we discover more stuff that needs to be added and as the game updates. -Grendal27 (talk)

Style Guide

This section serves to keep this wiki consistent from one article to the next. (Based off of Obduction wiki's style guide: https://obduction.gamepedia.com/Talk:Obduction_Wiki - Thanks, TheFloydman!)

  • The word "Everspace" should always be italicized when referring to the title of the game.
    • Everspace - ''Everspace''
  • When linking the word "Everspace", the link should be directed to the Everspace page, not just the wiki's main page. ("Everspace" should still be italicized when linking.)
  • Page titles should be in sentence case. This means that you should capitalize the article title as if it were a sentence without an ending period. Only the first word and proper nouns/adjectives should start with a capital letter.
  • Upgraded Equipment variants like 'Fire Rate Mod Mk2' should not have a capitalized k in 'Mk'. This is not consistent in-game, but it will be here.
  • Except for very short quotes, articles should paraphrase source material, not copy it. If context is needed, refer the reader to the source material instead. This should be easier once the wiki has transcripts of everything in the codex among other things
  • References made using <ref></ref> automatically appear at the bottom of the article. Add "== References ==" (without quotes) to the bottom of the article so that they appear nicely in a section. This should not be done if there are no references because you will just be creating an empty section.
  • Add an infobox when appropriate.
  • Proofread before you finish creating/editing a page. This will save a lot of time down the road. This short guide is very useful.
  • The Runescape Wiki and No Man's Sky Wiki are great examples of what we can achieve visually and textually. Let them inspire you in your work here.
