  1. I agree
I've been sitting on this one for a while and working on it off and on, but this is the standard—well, not the line ship but the "We need something that can do space travel and actually work" ship of the Company. As of the moment, there are only the two variants, but I'm sure it'll get new ones as needed.

Hey Farzi, Sorry for the wait - you have a lot of sub-articles in this submission.​

  • [ ❌ ] 1. The destination URL should be a page in the appropriate namespace and titled lower_case_with_underscores.
    • The interiors should be under interiors vs component's so wip:corp:iron_company:interor:model_44_standardized_starship_bridge
  • [ ✅ ] 2. The article is in the appropriate format and the article template. Is all the information for struct present?
  • [ ❌ ] 3. The article follows our wiki-style guidelines, including No forced line breaks, text after each section header, etc.
    • a lot of the descriptions use "you" or "your", which is inappropriate for an encyclopedia tone that we want to see on the wiki.
  • [ ✅ ] 4. The article is easily read and free of errors in spelling and gramma
  • [ ❌ ] 5. Links to other wiki articles are present as appropriate and are not broken
    • Many many missed opportunities for linking articles in - "Kikyo Sector, Craethel War, etc"
  • [ ✅ ] 6. The article fits into the Star Army universe's space opera theme and technology levels.
  • [ ✅ ] 7. Images in the article are hosted on Star Army's wiki and credited in the OOC section.
    • Art by Commissar Farzi - is on a lot of these pages, can you put what you used, ie. Doga, midjourney etc please
    • Pictures will need to be moved out of wip (request this after its approved)
  • [ ✅ ] 8. The article is original and doesn't contain copy-pasted content from other articles.
  • [ ❌ ] 9. The article complies with Star Army's rules in terms of damage ratings, speed limits, etc.
    • Please see the Starship Speed Standard on Star Army Space Roleplay, 0.4c is really too high for sublight, considering Yamatai which is far more advanced than the IC, is around 0.375c. I'd say the IC probably falls between the Standard-Advanced Technology Aptitude.
  • [ ✅ ] 10. The Faction Manager(s), if applicable, have posted approval for this article in this thread.
A few fixes needed before these can be approved.

Other Reviewer Jobs​

  • The "Type/Model 44 would replace the standard nomenclature for starship interiors
  • For the weapons, they always inherit part of the nomenclature from theirs vessel they are placed on.
    • 4cm Mauler Autocannon for example would be IC-E1-W4400 - so the E1 is the ship you're submitting and this is the "first" weapon So W4400.
  • The nomenclature on the skimmer itself is correct
  • Pricing seems reasonable
Thanks for the submission, I will give you some time to improve these articles and then review them again.
 
Think I've got it all sorted out-ready for you to take a look at it again. Did end up modifying it so the Heimdall System only shows up on a dedicated EW platform though.
 
Alright, I went through these again. The subpages still have a lot of this.
  • a lot of the descriptions use "you" or "your", which is inappropriate for an encyclopedia tone that we want to see on the wiki.
Get that fixed up and you will be ready for final checklist.
 
@Commissar Farzi Let me know when you want me to take another pass at these. I understand they take a bit more timed due to the volume of sub-articles.
 
Going through them now.
 
Please remember to fill out struct.
