I have started to enter GURPS data (especially GT:Interstellar Wars, but I will add GT:Rim of Fire world data). Despite that GURPS does not conform with Traveller norms (Tech Levels, World data) is this data worth putting in?
And i need to learn how to create templates, so world data can be added with GURPS data (I really wish GT used UWP....) Voradams 00:07, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
- Do you want a tutorial on creating templates, some suggestions on how to figure it out, or do you want me to do the work? Tjoneslo 03:55, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
- Some sudgestions and a tutorial. If i cant figure it, i can allways post the stuff i have in an unformatted text file.
- And I need to use Word to check the spelling....we use ie6 at work, no way I can get Firefox on here :-( Voradams 04:55, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
- First for some suggestions.
- Start small, don't try and replicate the UWP template (one of our most complex) as your first template.
- Experiment, feel free to create any number of small templates to see how stuff works. I've created a sandbox page User:Tjoneslo/sandbox for doing exactly this.
- Review other templates, the real magic of a template is in the page source, not in the page text.
- Steal from other templates. If you see something you think is cool on a template, never be afraid to make a copy of it for your own templates (See item 2). All of the templates here, I borrowed from other places and modified to suit our needs.
- First for some suggestions.

- I stole the UWP template for the GURPS World Template.....gah, road smash! every field became a template, because i used GT:Interstellar War in the discriptions! Thanks for the help!Voradams 23:46, 2 September 2008 (UTC)
- Ok, mark 1 of the template Template:GURPS Worlds seems to work. However, it does not sit flush under the UWP template. Can someone check please and send me feedback? Voradams 03:52, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
- Fixed. This is a CSS trick to fix. Tjoneslo 13:05, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
