Hi, welcome to Traveller RPG! Thanks for your edit to the Extolay (world) page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Tjoneslo (Talk) 01:05, 22 March 2009


What are the copyright issues you cite for some of your recent edits? Rancke 13:29, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Someone had added the exact text from the GURPS Traveller: Behind the Claw books, in violation of the Steve Jackson Games Online policy. Being lazy, I simply marked all the entries with a {{Delete|Copyright}} tag, rather than remove them or re-write them. So, thank you Garnfellow for fixing these entries.

Infobox Subsector alg tag

I noticed in some of the {{InfoboxSubsector}} templates you were editing you updated the alg= tag. This tag sets the color of the title bar for the info box depending upon the Allegiance used. But this does need to be one of the two letter Allegiance Code for the major empires. Otherwise the text isn't shown anywhere. This is described on the Template:InfoboxSubsector page.

Alpha Crucis Subsectors

I saw you were adding the subsectors for Alpha Crucis, and were adding the maps as images. Just to satisfy my own OCD for consistency can you consider using the {{InfoboxSubsector}}. This creates an iframe link to travellermap for your subsector. Or speak to User:Imperial Grand Survey about creating his style of maps for the Alpha Crucis subsectors. The hobgoblin of little minds and all that. Tjoneslo (talk) 08:12, 3 July 2013 (EDT)

Publishing from Mongoose Sources

I wanted to confirm that the world articles for the Trojan Reaches Sector you are posting do not violate either the Copyright or the What not to post guidelines. Since I don't have a copy of the Mongoose Traveller: Aslan or the Mongoose Traveller: The Trojan Reach book I can not verify this. Thank you for contributions.

The entries are in compliance with the guidelines as I understand them. Nothing should be a straight cut and paste, and I'm abstracting, rephrasing, or omitting the details as I go. A reader would still need the Mongoose book for all the info on these worlds.
Excellent. Perfect. Thank you for being aware of this. GORT (talk) 10:58, 21 July 2013 (EDT)
