The article in question is [[Nishant Taliyan]] which was probably created in some kind of spamming activity.

| − | + | Hello Thomas, I'm back after an unintended hiatus. Now I'm wondering. I used to be, a long time ago, the HIWG coordinator/owner for Alpha Crucis Sector. What I'm wondering is, if I were to world build in the sector (or anywhere else for that matter) can I add things like world maps to the wiki? I'm not sure since that is a canon area whether that's allowed or not. I'm still interested in that area as it has low alien population (my personal bias) but intrigue with the Solomani Confederation along with some border 3I areas. | |

Additionally, the summary for Alexin describes it as a 'a high-population world with a billion or more sophonts in population size.' despite its UWP indicating a population in the tens of thousands. | |

| − | + | I noticed yesterday that on the Aslan page (but also on other pages too, it seems) the "next" link near the bottom of the page for "World listings" does not work when trying to step through the huge list of Aslan worlds.

My TodoList: User:Tjoneslo/todo
Version differences[edit]
What is the policy for handling clear and distinct rules differences between editions? The affected content is on https://wiki.travellerrpg.com/Imperial_Currency the section labeled Imperial Banking, and the content differs sharply from what is given on page 91 of the MG2 Core Rules.
Thank you,

T5 Artwork / Copyright[edit]
Thomas, what is the policy on uploading pictures/art found in the T5.10 core rules? Is that acceptable on the wiki, or would it be a copyright violation? I was thinking about adding some of the pictures of medals and badges to their respective articles.

Pages Moves[edit]
Thanks, still fairly new to this, and will ensure next time move in done.
I do have a couple of page delete requests from previous inexperience at page naming.
Sturray(Pesek 0314)(world) Sturray(Pr 0314)(world)
are both errors on my part, and I've done all that is required to redirect the pages, I just find it's annoying when I search :-)
And you are on the Traveller RPG discord, yes?
- Add a {{delete}} template to the articles that need to be deleted. It will allow others to find them and remove them. I am on Discord, come ping me some time. Tjoneslo (talk) 22:34, 9 March 2022 (EST)
Looking for admin with sysop privileges[edit]
Hello, i wasn't sure whom to ask, but i'm looking for any admin with sysop privileges who would be able to perform a Page Deletion.

Worldbuilding in Alpha Crucis[edit]
Hello Thomas, I'm back after an unintended hiatus. Now I'm wondering. I used to be, a long time ago, the HIWG coordinator/owner for Alpha Crucis Sector. What I'm wondering is, if I were to world build in the sector (or anywhere else for that matter) can I add things like world maps to the wiki? I'm not sure since that is a canon area whether that's allowed or not. I'm still interested in that area as it has low alien population (my personal bias) but intrigue with the Solomani Confederation along with some border 3I areas. Flyteach
Issue with World template (also can't add topics to help forum?)[edit]
Hi there! Sorry for piling directly into your talk page with a help request / bug report, but the instructions at Forum:Help_desk say to add the title of the help request into a box that doesn't exist...
My real issue is that I'm seeing weirdness with the way the world summary template works. If you look at Alexin (world) and Islent (world) the format of the summary is not at all similar. Additionally, the summary for Alexin describes it as a 'a high-population world with a billion or more sophonts in population size.' despite its UWP indicating a population in the tens of thousands.
If these are things a simple contributor can fix, I'm happy to help if you can point me in the right direction. Cheers!

"Next" link for "world listings" not working[edit]
Hi Thomas,
I noticed yesterday that on the Aslan page (but also on other pages too, it seems) the "next" link near the bottom of the page for "World listings" does not work when trying to step through the huge list of Aslan worlds. I've checked in both Firefox and Chrome, and while the page seems to refresh when the link is clicked, nothing actually changes and the newly presented page starts at the beginning of the world list again.
I have used the function successfully a while ago (months, I'd say) so whatever is preventing it from working must be a relatively new thing.

Article appearance problem since recent board maintenance / upgrade[edit]
Thomas,
Since the recent board upgrade, my "Lord Rhovanion" page looks massively different (and messed-up, actually) - See: Richard Elruinn Ilendrick Rhovanion.
- (ADDENDUM: It seems to specifically be a problem with Microsoft Edge - It looks normal in Firefox. I also cannot see any of the editing buttons normally at the top of this window in MS Edge now, either).

- I had an issue like that (different browser, different OS, different page) that went away after I cleared the browser cache. My bet is that will fix it.

- You are brilliant. That worked perfect.

Source of Star data[edit]
I would like to know what the source was for the stellar data contained in the sub-pages of https://wiki.travellerrpg.com/Star/data, e.g. https://wiki.travellerrpg.com/Star/data/Class_III; in particular the Diameter value.
I noticed that it is not consistent with the Classic Traveller Book 6: Scouts, so I am trying find what the source was.
It appears from the https://wiki.travellerrpg.com/index.php?title=Star/data/Class_III&action=history, that you created them ~16 August 2020. If I have misinterpreted that, my apologies - but would you happedn to know who did?
Thank you, Ken Hooper sacrifice36@gmail.com
- https://wiki.travellerrpg.com/User_talk:Tjoneslo/archive-2020#Stellar_Template_Upgrade - this is the discussion about generation of the star data. There was a spreadsheet with the original data used to generate the table in the wiki, generated from Wikipedia and other sources of real world data. You may need to ask either of the other users. 06:41, 17 October 2023 (EDT)
Cargo Commit[edit]
When you're free please https://wiki.travellerrpg.com/index.php?title=Template:InfoboxIMTU&action=recreatedata
Thanks! Korok (talk) 04:11, 29 November 2023 (EST)
- Done! Tjoneslo (talk) 05:02, 29 November 2023 (EST)
- Quick question; it might be me not seeing the obvious Special:CargoTables is there an action I should be seeing somewhere on the page to switch to the new table? Korok (talk) 06:08, 30 November 2023 (EST)
Missing Images[edit]
Thanks mate, I'll see if anything is missing and reinstate any that are. Its been a bit of a busy week (a couple of new books in the works from Moon Toad, so that's been my main focus) so we might well have gotten away fairly lightly. Very much appreciate your letting me know.
