So you've returned. And right on time, I'd say. We've got new assignments on the job board.
Officer Shaw
This page consists of list of everything this wiki needs to be "complete" for both games to keep editing efforts more organized.
If you plan on contributing more than just a couple edits, please consider registering and joining the Rockfish/Everspace Discord (#wiki-general) .
For general page needs, look at Category:Stubs for pages that need 'more' or are WIP. For media needs, see Category:Articles needing images and Category:Images needing improvement.
Overall Wiki[ | ]
- Rockfish Games - history
- Add relevant alt text to more images & thumbnails, in order to better follow best practices & help SEO.
- Add pages for sentient species in both games, such as Horag and K'Nos (there are many more introduced in ES2), maybe redirect human to Colonials
Style & Design[ | ]
- Match text coloration where relevant - see Category:Formatting templates
- Check to make sure mobile styles look decent, particularly for the new infoboxes and tables
- Organize desktop/common css, add vars (for things like rarity colors)
Category guide[ | ]
- Categories containing stuff specifically related to Everspace 2 should be titled <Name name> (ES2). Categories with ES1 content will not be changed, consider anything without (ES2) ES1 content.
- This is different for normal content pages... things that are obviously only in ES2 may not need the (ES2) in the title, and some pages will include content from both games.
- Top level for Everspace content is Category:Everspace, ES2 is Category:Everspace 2

- Create collated icon images for thumbnails where relevant

- Okkar - Continue adding info/tips for the ships
- Outlaws - Continue adding info/tip for the ships

- Info about elite ships somewhere
- Codex - put when they are unlocked.
- Some Encounters Characters don't spawn until meeting Seth Nobu?
