Relation to orbiter

How is this related to orbiter? If its one of the Orbiter solar nations from DanStephs forum, please put it into the right category. And if somebody has the time to give me key attributes of each nation, i could make you a template for them. --Urwumpe 01:47, 4 April 2006 (MSD)

A template saying "This is Orbiter extracted fan fiction." Would be nice. It reads like Orbiter's Frontier: Elite 2.--BadWolf 18:19, 4 April 2006 (MSD)

Please, more content!

I already corrected it a bit, but the article could really need far more content other than just a plain history:

• What is the ME? a nice introduction for the article would be great.
• its politics?
• its culture(if any)?
• its interplanetary diplomatics?
• geography?
• is the nation really only a one-man show?

Wasn't finished

I had to go before I was finished, but reading you comments gave a lot more ideas. I added a lot more about the actual life of a mercurian, and new technologies. I'm still not finished, but post comments on what you think of it.

About the fact that it wasn't on the right category, im really sry about that, i dunno how I did, I jsut created a page by clicking on the empty Mercurian Empire link in the OSN page.

anyway, if you ahve more ideas on what to post, or if there is any more problems related to category or something else, say it, cause im new to this wiki and dont understand how everything works yet. Oli chose123 04:46, 5 April 2006 (MSD)

Well, what i want from you, would be a introduction before the first chapter, including a short summary: What is the character of the faction, the political system, a short history, important events. Not more than 300 words. so that somebody who wants to learn more about your faction, can read the summary and then decide if he wants to read more. If you write a good summary, more people will read your article - and i think aside of some small typos, you have a very nice article done.

Also i support the idea of the infobox, but i think the layout could get improved one day... i maybe look at it on the weekend. --Urwumpe 01:34, 7 April 2006 (MSD)

Infobox

Hi. I've created an infobox template for OSN, please could you add it to this page. the code is: {{OSN nation| Name=| Flag=| Leader=| Capital=| Territory=| Population=| Website = }}

It will look like this:

(IMG)
Leader:
Capital:
Other territories:
Population:
Website:

Just enter relevant information after each = sign, and place it at the top of the page. If you need help, you can look at the one I did for the UFMP. Thanks, GW_Simulations 23:58, 6 April 2006 (MSD)
