Can you tell me why name articles as are (or should be) titled "Last name, First name" rather than "First name Last name"? For example, Dulinor Astrin Ilethian vs. Ilethian, Dulinor Astrin. I used the former because it followed the Wikipedia naming style. [[User:Tjoneslo|Tjoneslo]] 03:57, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

Alien Races 5?

In your edits to Minor Race, you reference a book: Alien Races 5. Is this GURPS Traveller: Humaniti, or is there another Alien Races book I'm not aware of. Tjoneslo 19:51, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Yes, it's _Humaniti_. I'll change the references.

BTW, I want to put the taxonomic terms in italics, but I don't know how to do that. Can anyone tell me? Short of browsing through the articles until I find one with something in italics (which is how I found out how to put things in boldface), I can't find any page that provides that sort of information.

Use two 's for example. See also Help Introduction on the wika page. It contains a quick guide to formatting and editing. Use 4 ~ to sign your posts. Tjoneslo 14:20, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
