Summary
Several things caught my eye in this submission-

What is this "semi-naturally occurring stellar gate"? Additionally, how is it "kept safe by man made structures?"

Please link to all the military starships listed in the "Military and Security Forces In-System" section. Especially the larger ships.

Please follow the template.


The large chart says there is only one asteroid belt, but the "Mining Operations" section states that there are two asteroid belts-please rectify this.

There are a few grammatical errors scattered about the article, please fix them- a few examples (but not all instances) are the following:

-Incomplete sentence: "Pulling some minute percentage of Callenite from the rock or earth, however other raw materials are also sought."
-Change "have" to "has": "From simple consumer electronics, to main battle tanks, to kilometer sized space infrastructure, the Valmet Sector of the Colonial Pact have the capability to produce anything that the rest of the vast faction can on site."
-Remove "those": "The largest yards, those capable of producing star system infrastructure such as station sections and capital warships, are clustered around Leningrad and Faust."

Status: Pending



I intend to finish this review by: October 6, 2017 (10/6/2017)
 
Since this submission has not been updated, I hereby REJECT the submission of the Helka Alpha Star System.
 
I need to produce an updated template and work on some other things at the same time hold your horses.
 
Arieg, I had stated the review would be finished yesterday. If you are feeling hard-pressed to keep submissions updated, perhaps you should submit fewer things at once so you can more easily track what submissions you have active?
