Ships

There are three types of pages that will detail ship information: those from Timo's Guide, which describe the history of the class design and the operational ships within that class (as well more than few details on Federation history); Class pages, which list the in-game stats of the class (and its close variants) and the ships that make up that class; and individual ships. Each requires a different naming scheme, so that it is clear how each is easily wiki-fied. The below list indicates how each is to be handled, using 'Enterprise' as an example:

  • Guide: all articles are to be named per the original article name, preceded by 'Guide:' (ex: Guide: Enterprise)
  • Class: as it seems to work for the two big Star Trek wikis, classes will be titled with their name and 'class' (ex: Enterprise class)
  • Individual Ships: these pages will be titled by the ship prefix (e.g., USS or IKS), if any, and ship name (ex: IKS Gorkon), followed by the NCC code (or some other relevant identifier, such as class name) in parenthesis (ex: Shuguang (DY-50),USS Defiant (NCC-1764)). When multiple ship pages share the same name, a disambiguation page titled after the root name should be created.
