*Note on "claiming" new wormhole connections: if you scan down a new wormhole connection, immediately warp to it and show info on it (which will tell you where it leads). Then check the mapper to see what the next system should be called (based on whether it leads to high/low/null sec or w-space) and announce that you are claiming this new system - in mumble, fleet chat or both. This helps to prevent others adding new systems to the mapper with duplicate names.

Once you are done with the current system and are ready to jump through a new connection and repeat this whole process over again:

#Always note the state of the connection before jumping through and adding it to the mapper

#Check the "lifetime" text - if it is "end of life" consider not jumping as you may get stuck on the other side. In this case you can add "EOL" to the end of the bookmark name to alert others. If you are not jumping through, you can enter "WH [where it leads to] EOL" in the "Info" box of the signature in the mapper.

#Check the "mass" text - if it is critical and on the verge of collapse, consider not jumping as you may collapse it on your way out...even in a frigate. You can also add CRIT to the end of the bookmark to alert others and make a similar note as in step 2 in the mapper.

#If the connection is not EOL or mass critical, note the wormhole ID (so you can enter it when you add the new system - this will show the connection mass on the mapper which is very important as we plan what types of ships we can take through it before it collapses), jump through and repeat the process starting at________
