=== Destination ===
* Class 1-3 wormhole systems
* Class 4-5 wormhole systems
* Class 6 wormhole systems
* High Security
* Low Security
* Null Security
* Triglavian Space
* Drifter Wormhole Systems
* Thera


=== System type ===
# If the wormhole is named (anything other than K162) you can look up the location using [[Wormhole attributes|this table]]. You can also identify the size of ships allowed by its color.
The first sentence talks about the type of the wormhole. These will be of the following format (and is the {{Co|Magenta|magenta}} text in the above image):
# If the wormhole is a K162, you can tell what type of system it leads to by color.
* ''This wormhole seems to lead into '''<nowiki>{important part}</nowiki>''' parts of space.''
=== Maximum Ship Size ===

* If the wormhole is named (anything other than K162) you can look up the location using [[Wormhole attributes|this table]]. You can also identify the size of ships allowed by its color.
=== Lifetime ===
* If the wormhole is a K162, you can tell what type of system it leads to by color.
The next section indicates the earliest possible time a wormhole could close, but there is some variance to when it will actually close after the lifetime has passed.
 
* <span style="color:#F8B343">Less than 1 day remaining</span>
=== Life ===
* <span style="color:#F18F57">Less than 4 hours remaining</span>
The next sentence indicates how much life the wormhole has before it collapses. Show Info on the wormhole will list one of the following (and is the {{Co|orange|orange}} text in the above image):
* <span style="color:#FF454B">Less than 1 hour remaining</span>
*  ''This wormhole has '''not yet begun''' its natural cycle of decay and should last at least another day''
*''This wormhole is '''beginning to decay''', and probably won't last another day''
* ''This wormhole is '''reaching the end''' of its natural lifetime''

It is therefore not recommended to traverse an end of life wormhole without some alternative method of returning back home, such as a corpmate able to scan down a new entrance.

=== Mass ===
=== Mass Stability ===
The third sentence tells you how much mass has passed through the wormhole (and is the {{Co|yellow|yellow}} text in the above image).
* <span style="color:#55A2BA">More than 50% remaining</span>
* ''This wormhole has '''not yet''' had its stability significantly disrupted by ships passing through it''
* <span style="color:#F28F58">Less than 50% remaining</span>
* ''This wormhole has had its stability reduced by ships passing through it, but '''not to a critical degree''' yet''
* <span style="color:#F84349">Less than 10% remaining</span>
* ''This wormhole has had its '''stability critically disrupted''' by the mass of numerous ships passing through and is on the verge of collapse''
