How to survive EVE Online link needs to be updated

The "How to survive EVE Online" YouTube link goes to Seamus's old (Crucible) videos. Here's the new link: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLEauSTU1fPwlePk0Y018g22MOPrsFEEHS

Fixed, thank you--Terra infector adoudel (talk) 17:17, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Add Wiki To-Do List to the Table of Contents

Add a link to To Do List in the Wiki Contributors part of Table of Contents for easy acess and visibility. --- Zetto Alter 23:19, 20 May 2014 (UTC)

Change "(more...)" link

Change it from "Category:Eve_University" to "Category:EVE_University". --- Zetto Alter 13:00, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

"How to Survive" videos are now obsolete, and crucial links suggestions

Seamus' "How to Survive EVE" videos are now obsolete, being from 2014, and he has this disclaimer on the vids.

Jonny Pew has a good series that is current and based on the current NPE. Here is a link https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLwFpMhZDCXwF3WI3kwFc5oB5mW3BwrnF_

Some crucial Uni links were removed that you may want to consider putting back up.

These include: http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Returning_to_EVE_University http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Wartime_Operations_in_EVE_University http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Applying_to_EVE_University_During_War - this one wasn't originally there, but it's probably a good one to have on your main page.

Given that CCP shut down the EVE Wiki, you may want to consider linking on your main page:

http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Tutorials_-_Opportunities_and_Career_Agents_in_EVE_Online - since basically Opportunities alone are crap and don't do a lot to help new players. http://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=94260 - a new player oriented Uni public forum thread.

Update links

The To-Do list and Wiki How To Guide have been moved. Suggest to update:

  • [[To Do List]] to [[Uniwiki:To-Do List|To-Do list]]
  • [[Wiki How To Guide]] to [[UniWiki:Editing Guide|Editing Guide]]
