Hi @Ciggofwar, thank you for your contribution to Starmadepedia! I've made some pretty sweeping changes to Player Stations to bring it in line with our standards, so I'll just briefly outline why I've done things, and explain where you can find relevant information to improve your own editing.

First and foremost for reference are the wiki's Manual of Style and Rules. The Manual of Style is a pretty exhaustive explanation of the desired writing standards for Starmadepedia. Being 100% up to scratch isn't absolutely necessary, as long as the content is useful, however.

When you want to display a hotkey that a player should press to do something, use Template:K. The syntax for this is {{K|Hotkey name}}, with every hotkey name being listed alongside the resultant symbol in the document I linked.

Images should not be linked externally: rather, they should be uploaded via this page with an appropriate filename, and placed in an article using the markup explained on this page.

In fact, the MediaWiki Wiki is a great source for help on any of the markup used here on Starmadepedia, and I highly recommend checking it out if you're uncertain about anything!

Lastly, my apologies for posting in your user page rather than your talk page, but I've found that I'm unable to create new discussion topics and wanted to be sure I could reach you somehow.

Hopefully this information is of service in future,

Happy editing!
