WCPedia Summer Schedule
Dundradal intends to have all the Wing Commander 1 missions plugged into the WCPedia in time for the CIC birthday. Most of this should already be covered, but let him know here if you notice anything missing.
Update to my status....well my plans for the 2nd week of June obviously went out the window, as have devoting time in the following weeks. However, during July I won't have as much outside work to do and should be able to finish up those mission entries.
My goal is to have WC1 missions done by the CIC bday and get a bit into SM1. I don't believe there is too much left of WC1 to cover, but if someone would like to go through and see if anything is missing and put it on a to-do list that would be great.
While the effort has so far been focused on a few specific areas, everyone is welcome to sign up and work on whatever they feel like. Article templates have been set up for common entry types like character biographies, ship classes and star systems. Example articles (linked from the front page) demonstrate how you can use the templates for adding information in the standardized WCPedia style. General rules and guidelines can be found here.
To prevent automated spam abuse, new CIC Wiki accounts need to be individually approved. When registering, be sure to put a line or two into the 'biography' box to prove you're not a robot. If you're in a hurry to have your account approved, you can contact us or Dundradal on IRC, via e-mail or on the Forums.

Making the Game: Localization of Game Text
Another element of game development we forget about is the international factor; Wing Commander sold as well in Europe (especially in France and Germany) as it did in the United States -- and rolling out translated versions was a lot easier when the team thought ahead to plan for how they would work.
These updates are thanks to John "Captain Johnny" Guentzel, who provided several CD image archives of material used by the Wing Commander Prophecy development team!
