Note that in my next test the first two groups had 4 units of BS and support each, and they were slightly different support ships, within the given class, so it appears that the number of enemies is variable, and that those enemies are drawn randomly from their support group. There may be a better way to communicate the contents of the wave with this in mind, but I don't know how to do that, if that is desired.

: While there are mission/sites with fixed NPC configurations lots of them have variable numbers and types (influencing the amount of bounty received). This is pretty normal for EVE. Looking at your edit of [https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/index.php?title=Blood_Forsaken_Hub&type=revision&diff=221389&oldid=218770 Blood Forsaken Hub] you did a pretty good job (range for the numbers and reporting multiple types). As a rule of thumb use no more than 2 or 3 types, when more add ...

== Fuzzy find? ==

in this case ([https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/index.php?title=Black_Ops&diff=prev&oldid=221601 Black Ops edit]) it has nothing to do whit fuzzy find. [[Jump drive]] is a hard redirect to Jump drives (Actually because the wiki is database driven it is not really a redirect but more an alternative key to the same content.). As the content is on the Jump drives page and a piped link is needed anyway, in this situation it is still a good call but I would not edit just to change this. -- [[User:Evon R'al|Evon R'all]] ([[User talk:Evon R'al|talk]]) 14:25, 23 February 2025 (UTC)

Puremurder: Not sure how to reply so I'm editing this... :) Interesting info, thanks. :) I think I was the one that initally put jump drive and then changed it to jump drives so I shouldn't have been stepping on anyone's toes here but I'm largely ignorant of how this site works. One thing I'll note is that I've been reading this page and like fussing with the copy rather than absorbing the content. Such good content too. I'll be reading it as a reader for a bit.

:: Your welcome :). And answering this here is exactly what talk pages are meant for. A few tricks you might be interested in: When replying on a talk page it is good custom to start the reply with a : that causes the following line to indent making it easier to see where a reply starts (adding one more : for each next reply). Closing a reply/comment with 4x ~ will expand to username and timestamp on preview and save, including links to the users user page.

:: And I was in your position knowledge wise once. I created some pages with notes which might come in handy for you to ([[User:Evon R'al/Wiki edit notes|Wiki edit notes]] and [[User:Evon R'al/Wiki coding notes|Wiki coding notes]]). -- [[User:Evon R'al|Evon R'all]] ([[User talk:Evon R'al|talk]]) 11:47, 25 February 2025 (UTC)
