Is there anyway to get a company-style datasheet for the wiki? I know there aren't a ton of IC companies, but I thought I'd ask. Seeing Russard Industries with a 'wife' and a 'sibling' makes no sense ;)

I figure the data sheet would have:

Leader: (head of company)
Location: (headquarters)
Primary role (s) : describing the kinds of products they make
Major products:

There is a Groups format that might be more appropriate - Used here (http://www.sw-fans.net/wiki/index.php?title=Rogue_Squadron). A couple of the fields don't fit perfectly though; I should be able to jimmy a better alternative together... assuming Jen has no protests, o'course. :)

You can make whatever kind of datasheet you want, this isn't a staff thing. :p

Magic, of course. And cookies. Chocolate chip ones.

What fields do you want in your datasheet?

FYI - shoved the Infobox in, but have jiggled the formatting of the page slightly to up the places to put some of the images I was PM'd. I left the old formatting at the bottom temporarily though; if you prefer how it was formatted before, you can just delete out the problem bits.

Just find a template that is similar to what you want....

Copy the whole page (edit - then copy the editable content)...

Then paste into a new Template page and make your changes before saving. Just play around with it.

Thanks for all your help - its great :)

I made some adjustments, like you mentioned down in this thread. Its really coming together :)
