Forum:SH Archive/Planet vandals

Forums &gt; Senate Hall &gt; 

We have a certain set of vandals who like to change data in the planetary infoboxes. Stuff like gravities, radii, length of days and hours, etc. Things that you'd have to check closely to notice something was up, and as a result they're usually missed.

A couple I noticed after Vryce asked about some suspicious data on the Alderaan page:
 * 83.135.140.250
 * 83.135.133.66

In face, a lot of them start with "8" as I recall (they've hit Ossus several times), so I think they may be the same person.

Anyway, I don't know how we'd do this on any sort of organized scale, but I think it would be a good general idea to check modifications to planetary data and make sure people aren't screwing around. Obvious things like Alderaan having 40% gravity are easier to spot, but if you have any sources that would mention planetary data (sourcebooks, usually), I'd suggest occasionally checking infoboxes to see if it's all kosher. - Lord Hydronium 10:20, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
