Been putting a lot of effort into allowing quicker article entry within the wiki.

There's been so much work going into it, and with the complexity of some of the templates and articles, the editors have had a hard job entering data, particularly for the bigger ships with more turrets, etc.

To solve this we've been working on creating an Excel spreadsheet that will manipulate the data into the correct final format. So far entries such as Minotaur and Skirnir have been

I thought this post would be good to highlight, just to see if we can inspire some writing again at TXU. There's been such a high caliber of writing in times past, it'd be nice to see if there's some new talent able to write as well, or if we can persuade the oldies to get writing again...

It was while scouting around for someone to help I came across Moxy's M7 Mod (known as MMM for short). This discovery was to change TXU forever.
