Hey, welcome to my talk page!

Global changes in the last 24 hrs? And a couple questions...
Hi AKB New to this Wiki editing thang so forgive the ignorance. I have a couple questions if you don't mind.

Changes to global page layout within the last 24hrs? Yesterday I populated near all of the Serpentis System (some of Serpentis III had been done), by using the template of the Jemison page everything started to look great. I uploaded images grabbed from my Xbox (that's a feat in itself), cleaned them up also using the guidelines as best I could, such as the naming convention etc. I did use 'planet' and 'moon' to disseminate between them (question within a question here...should they all be nominated 'planet' in the naming convention or did I do right).

This morning when I came back to see if I had a reply from another user (which I did), about his approval to change the image he had on Serpentis III being 16:9 to follow the 1:1 format for the images I'd entered for the rest of the system, he replied, "go for it". But then I noticed the images have moved from the being at the top of the righthand spine of information to the lefthand side of the page. I also notice the image captions are empty and just show '' whereas yesterday they seemed fine. Please tell me what I did wrong or what am I missing?

Apologies for the long-winded couple questions... I just wanted to be sure I didn't break anything yesterday. Also if this was the wrong place to ask this question, apologies... still learning the ropes.

PS... Please disregard this... my desktop browser cache acted up. Following the topic about changing the image of the planet from 16:9 to 1:1 to conform with the other planet/moon images I added the new image to the system however the appearance of the planet on the page is warped and I don't have a reason why it would do this?

Biome table on Planet/Moon page
The first post was too long to add any more questions to it so here is another. On the planet pages I've added the 'Biome table', (found on the Jemison page), and used it as a guide when populating the pages I've been working on, primarily the Serpentis System.

The Biome table has as its last column 'Minerals' and I see that as superfluous and trying to populate that column would be excruciating to do. Can this column be dropped?

 * We might be nearing a solution to this specific problem, where we will be able to determine exactly what minerals can be found in each biome, and then list them all with a bot. So don't worry about filling them out, but it'd be nice to copy them over. --AKB (talk) 10:33, 10 October 2023 (EDT)

Thanks for the update, appreciate it. Two things I noticed, if you can confirm, Jeancey made a couple minor changes to the Serpentis VI-b details;
 * 1) Changed the image name from File:SF-moon-Serpentis VI-b.jpg to File:SF-planet-Serpentis VI-b.jpg. Can I take this as name all planets/moons as "planet" in the naming convention?
 * 2) Jeancey removed the rarity tag in the Benzene resource. I take it this variable is no longer necessary? I will go through the previous pages and take these out if that is the case.

Is there a better place to discuss changes/edits in the SF Wiki? I don't want to harass you continually and I should ask the editor of the page to be fair.

And finally, is there a planet page that is complete and properly formatted so I can use this to learn the code quicker (currently using Jemison as my goto page).

Thanks for your help and sorry to be a pest.
