This article is written primarily in an in-universe context. Someone fix this. - Snail 06:10, 12 October 2008 (CDT)

Not sure that's necessary or wise. Much of it is copying the FS2 techroom description. - Ngtm1r 14:06, 16 October 2008 (CDT)

In that case, the source should be stated and the text reverted to the original. Right now I'd have to say this is a pretty rubbish article. I'd like to completely rewrite it if nobody minds. - Snail 14:29, 16 October 2008 (CDT)

Go ahead. I've no idea where to start. If you can do a better job, go for it and I'll see how I can help along the way. -- Androgeos Exeunt 22:32, 16 October 2008 (CDT)
This article is in awful shape. I pulled out a couple choice oddities but it needs a rewrite, as Snail suggested. General Battuta 02:24, 25 June 2009 (UTC)

Picture

I have taken another picture for the Shivans article. It is the same Shivan in almost the exact same position, but it's from the cutscene so it's in color and it's much easier to see. Should I upload it or just leave it the way it is? --FlamingCobra 20:47, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

Upload it, add it in somewhere else in the article, don't replace the existing one. More pictures = good. Even if we (somehow) ended up with too many pictures, we could put them in a gallery. Black Wolf 02:56, 13 June 2011 (UTC) Awesome, love it. Black Wolf 05:19, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

Devastating Wars

Doesn't the Ancient-Shivan War count as one of the most devastating wars? Hell, I mean, a whole species was wiped out, planets were destroyed, and a star was exploded. --FlamingCobra 21:29, 16 July 2011 (UTC)

  • Good point. I edited the intro a bit. It certainly requires some further editing. - TopAce 07:49, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
