Wild Space and Unknown Regions

The definitions of Wild Space and Unknown Regions are a bit fluid even in canon but I think we ought to redefine and reclassify Wild Space as sectors that haven't been explored yet. I had created a category, Category:Unexplored Sectors but it seems better to rename as Wild Space instead. For Unknown Regions, we can maintain it as systems without a sector like Huk and Csilla. Any opinions on this? --Raith Starlight 03:29, 19 April 2014 (GMT)

It does seem fitting for Wild Space to refer the Sectors that have yet to be explored.

Sounds logical. I agree. -- Rupert Havok 07:58, 19 April 2014 (GMT)

I don't want to seem picky, but I am. ;-) The definition "unexplored sector" is not appropriate because who knows exactly whether a sector has been explored or not? Also, the fact that a sector appears as empty on the galactic map doesn't mean forcibly that it was not explored. People can explore sectors and find nothing. I would get rid of the idea that empty sectors are unexplored, but I don't understand the difference between "wild space" and "deep space". As for "unknown regions", the canon states one or more reasons why they are unknown, one of them being that strange and strong magnetic fields make it very difficult for instruments to navigate and detect space hazards. For this, I'd keep the "unknown regions" for the canon use. --Ruben Wan 13:53, 19 April 2014 (GMT)

Additional pages for Astrography

I started a page about comets time ago, and one about asteroids some more time ago. They could be included in the Astrography, perhaps adding general pages on what a planet or a star is. My idea about this kind of pages is to keep the scientific text quite simple, but adding some colour by mentioning special planets or stars. For example, the page about Star could mention the only one blue star in the galaxy (Ota system), or the Hook Nebula six-star system. --Ruben Wan 13:53, 19 April 2014 (GMT)

Star System Pages in SWC Rules and in the Holocron wiki

I remember to have read somewhere in the wiki that the Holocron must not replace or clone the pages in the Rules as for systems, items, entities such as ships and vehicles... Rather the Holocron should expand or add special or specific information to that entity or system. What is the current rationale for creating new system pages on the Holocron? What should be done and should be avoided? Thanks in advance for your suggestions and ideas. --Ruben Wan 13:53, 19 April 2014 (GMT)
