Opening Statement: "The System Name Title system is the location of the inhabited planets Planet1, Planet2, the inhabited moon Moon3 and the Industrial Satellite4 orbital facility. The system is
located in the Region5 district of the FactionName6 as at Current Year."
System Description
Details general facts about the system, such as the objects mentioned in the opening statement (with additional information), other uninhabited structures, recharging stations, others charted
systems (not in list form) that are within one jump, etc.
System History
This provides the political climate of the system, especially that which is not planet-dependent, such as when the system changed hands, space battles, etc, all in text form.
Political Affiliation
See below
Planet Name
This can (and should) differ from the name given in the Infobox if the common name for the planet differs from that of the system or infobox standard. Ex: For Terra, the InfoboxPlanetStandard
planet name would be Sol III, but the Planet Name at this point in the article would be Terra.

Opening Statement: "Planet1 is the [orbital number] planet in the SystemName system [and is the regional capital of the FactionName6's Region5 district]. On the surface, the planet hosts
CompanyName7's FactoryName8 industrial facility [and the summer palace of ImportantPerson9], while the Industrial Satellite4 facility orbits its moon, Moon10.
Planetary History
Provides more details (supposedly) of major events, detailing changes in ownership, battles, major events, etc. Where planets have a detailed history, this section should be sub-divided into sub-
sections with clear titles, such as Reunification War, Star League Era, Fourth Succession War, Jihad, etc.
Political Affiliation
This replaces the earlier Owner History entry but stays in list format, reflecting those available data points that show which nation or faction the planet was affiliated with at any given point.
This is included here as although it is generally the entire system that changes hands, the fate of that system is usually dependent on battles on the planet; where there are two or more planets
within a system, this also allows the affiliation of each to be tracked separately. In instances where the system is controlled by one faction and inhabited planets are controlled by another, the
political affiliation of the system should be recorded separately within the system area of the article. If a precise date is not available for an event such as a dispute in ownership or a
planetary conquest/annexation, it is entirely acceptable to add an entry indicating the range of years within which the planet was disputed/conquered, but this should be expanded on in the history
section. Ex: "2351-2352 disputed world (Sarna Supremacy/Chesterton Trade Federation)" or "Ca. 2351-2357 - Sarna Supremacy (annexed during this period)". If a planet's absence from a map of the
region in which that planet lies is being recorded here, the affiliation should be given as "No record", to prevent absence of proof being presented as proof of absence. Ex: "2217 - No record" or
"3130 - No record". If a planet or system is visible on a map but the owner is undefined, it should be listed as "Independent."
Planetary Rulers
Lists known planetary rulers in date order, with the appropriate titles and dates.
Military Deployment
Lists semi-lists of military units, broken down into smaller sub-sections by years of recorded note.
Geography
A general description of the planet, but in text form (no lists). This should include such details as number and name of continents as well as details of named geological features, but not man-made
features such as cities and industrial plants.
Planetary Locations
A hierarchical list, as seen in the Luthien article. Short descriptions of each entry, unless a link is provided.
Industrial Centers
Should list all known factories, including those destroyed. Construction and destruction can be indicated by year notes (similar to dates of life for a character).
