Maps?

OK so there is this ksp maps guide here: http://www.kerbalmaps.com/ and I think we should add it, I'm just not sure how.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Bashir 203 (talkcontribs) 11:48, 16 April 2014‎ (UTC)

I already added kerbalmaps.com a couple of diffs ago. There is indeed a bit of a question of whether certain entries fit into the article with its current title and I've elected to be a bit elastic so far, leaning on the side of inclusion rather than exclusion since it isn't clear where to put some stuff either way (although I have excluded plenty already, though nothing that neatly fits into the category of "calculator"). I'm almost done adding information and, if it's ok, I'd ask for 8-24hrs longer to make sure I've done as full a sweep as possible and finished formatting the page and categories while everything is still fresh in my head, before decisions are made to cut and split stuff from this page into others or expand the scope if necessary. So far, it seems I overestimated the amount of tools out there and it is actually possible to track down everything and include it. This is just a request for practical purposes and because there's no real rush (this article isn't linked by any other page yet as far as I know). I think once I'm done with this initial build, it will be a lot clearer whether we need a new section, title or page.--MechaLynx (talk) 19:09, 16 April 2014 (CDT)
