[For specific ships, not ship classes. Put a line or two summing up the ship, like "Fleet courier" or "Pirate freighter"]
Vital Statistics (At a Glance)
[Pronunciation is unnecessary for ships with English-word-type names, like Stardancer or Earthrise. ]
- Affiliation: [Fleet, Independent, Chatcaava, etc]
- Type: [Battlecruiser, shuttle, freighter, etc]
- Crew Capacity: [max and current, if known]
- Originating Tag: [UAV, TMS, ARTV, etc.]
- Primary Purpose: [Transportation, trade, military, scientific, espionage, pleasure cruises, etc. Might be more than one, probably not more than two or maybe three that would be genuinely primary. If it has a specific political purpose, like the QTS ships, that can be noted here as well.]
Marks and Symbols
[For Fleet vessels this section would be 'shield and motto,' but for other types of ships it might be referred to differently.]
Layout and Specifics
[How many levels? Is there a galley, laboratory, medplex? Is the galley to port or starboard of the bunks? Is engineering above or below the debriefing rooms? Etc. Is storage accessible from the air-breathing part of the ship or is it attached to spindles outside atmosphere? Do people get around the ship via stairs, Pads, elevators, ladders? Is there a water environment? What does the bridge look like? A schematic or floorplan could go here.]
Amenities and Technology
[Does it have water showers or only Pad showers? Is there a genie? How does it generate its energy? What kind of common spaces are there (greenspaces, restaurants, lounges, rec rooms, exercise rooms)? If there are shops/restaurants, what are they called and what are they like?]
Crew Culture
[Are they by-the-book or more freewheeling? Casual or formal? This would also be the place to note things like whether it was a feminic or masculic ship, or a ship dominated partly or entirely by a single species, or that has a very specific cultural nature or purpose, and also specific things like the Stardancer's Happy Houris or the Songlance's potluck skullbash.]
History/Commissioning/Achievements
[Who were its known past captains and notable crew? What deeds of derring-do did it, uh, do? Discover some octopuses? Start a civil war? Break up a furrier ring? Wait, all of those?]
Crew by Role
[Unlike the auto-generated everyone-who-has-ever-been-affiliated-with-this-ship list, this should be broken down by role. For large ships, especially Fleet, this will be departments: tactical, science, medical, engineering, etc. For smaller ships, you might have people doubling up, like your supercargo also be your de facto doctor (to use a completely made up example eyeballs Hirianthial).]
Characters with Existing Pages on the Wiki
Appearances
[For usefulness's sake, should probably be restricted to when we actually see the inside of a ship, or at least where it plays a major role; doesn't need to be listed here if it's a mention like "oh, yeah, he served on the Starbeam" or "the UAV Waterslide is passing through the system."]
