[edit] Table organization
What about this for each cluster? Linking only landable planets.

Or this is easier to read. Either way use {{tocright}} to put table of contents on right side. --avfanatic (talk) 19:06, 30 November 2007 (UTC)
- Table organization would be good. My original intent was to list all planets and linking to each one so that the various information about each was there to explore. Including the ones you can't land on because they still are involved in the game from surveying and scanning asteroids. I like the idea of a horizontal table like the first one. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by DarkharmonyD (talk · contr).
- Thanks. Iagree with you about a total listing. As far as linking the planets, see Newton for an exapmple of what I think we should do with the non-landable planets (incorporate them into the system article) and the explanation/discussion of that topic at Talk:Newton.

- The first table looks cleaner overall, imo, and less likely to overload the page than the latter, but I'm unclear how you're going to get those to work with a ToC. Since neither of those suggestions appear to work with an assignment-based system overview, I'm not sure either of them are particularly useful. They don't add anything from an encyclopedic standpoint, since the info is already on the system/planet pages, and they don't add anything from a game guide standpoint since you'd have to know which system or planet you were looking for already. I guess it might be interesting to see the general galactic structure, but Avfanatic looks to be doing that with the category labels already. --TarkisFlux 23:39, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
