What are the current goals for the KSP Wiki? --Suzaku (talk) 03:49, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

For it to be the central location for documentation and user-made tutorials. -- N3X15 (talk) 04:06, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

Varden`s talk

Should I translate names of Celestial Bodies? it would be just transliteration? but I am not shure. --Varden (talk) 15:55, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

  • Since these are fictional names, it's probably best to retain their English versions. You may want to add a pronunciation guide or transliteration as a footnote or something. -- N3X15 (talk) 19:24, 25 September 2012 (UTC)


How can I make links to Russian wikipedia? [[w:Orbital_inclination|Orbital Inclination]] directs me to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_inclination, and [[w:Наклон_орбиты|Наклонение орбиты]] directs me to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Наклон_орбиты, but i want http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Наклон_орбиты. --Varden (talk) 13:33, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

  • The Interwiki links apparently only support English-language links. Sorry. -- N3X15 (talk) 20:20, 7 October 2012 (UTC)
    • Strange, as I can see here[1] you can add any interwiki prefixes, like [[ruwiki:Наклон_орбиты]]. --Varden (talk) 20:53, 7 October 2012 (UTC)


This isn't really the location to talk about wiki issues, it should be reserved to interacting directly with N3X15. If you desire a change to be made to a page, then you should use the discussion for that page. There is also a todo list on the discussion for the main page, so that can be sued to log wiki wide issues and tasks. Thecoshman (talk) 08:13, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

  • Strange, "Please contact N3X15 in IRC or via my talk page if something breaks", I thought that this is page to talk about technical issues, if it it concerns not a particular page, and wiki in general. --Varden (talk) 13:33, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
    • I see what you mean, but I think the best place to talk about wiki-wide things is the talk page for the main page. I would say only use this page for things that are really broken, say if a bot decides the revert all changes or something like that. Thecoshman (talk) 17:06, 6 October 2012 (UTC)


Main Page

Excellent work on the main page, glad to see it spruced up a little.--Craigmt1 (talk) 13:51, 26 September 2012 (UTC)

Adding Dutch

Hey, I would be willing to start building up the Dutch language section of this wiki, but i am not sure how to add it. Could you explain it for me? --Azivegu (talk) 12:56, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

Duna Gravity borked.

I'm no mathemetician, but if the gravity for other bodies such as Mun (6.51e10 m3/s2) and Gilly (8.289e6 m3/s2) have exponents on them, I think that the listing for Duna's 'gravitational parameter' (Gravitational parameter 301.321 m3/s2) isn't what it should be.

Someone, throw some math at that and fix it :P Kahlzun (talk) 23:37, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

RoboJeb Picture Crushing

Just wondering, what is the point in this? Does not the wiki engine already scale images as needed? Isn't this just making it harder for people to see the the highest resolution version? It is also a flawed theory that is saves space, as the original larger version is still saved, so it just takes up extra space. Thecoshman (talk) 09:18, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
