*Always bookmark wormhole connections in every system. If you find Data, Relic or Gas sites and you are in Bacon or Innuendo, bookmark them all in the Wormhole Campus corp bookmarks folder using the [[WHC Bookmarking Scheme]]. In any other system, only bookmark wormhole connections. The only exception to this are Vital and Instrumental Gas sites in C5 and C6 systems, as these contain the expensive gas that we often like to huff.

*Besides bookmarking, it is also important to add each signature's "Type" and "Info" to the mapper. If this is Bacon or Innuendo, enter both the "Type" and the "Info" and in any other system only the "Type" is needed. This means that you only have to get a 25% hit to get the "Type". C5 and C6 Gas sites need to be scanned down to at least 75% so that the exact site info is known and should it be a Vital or Instrumental, then it is necessary to scan it down to 100% ~~in order~~ to ~~bookmark~~ it.

*''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 lets other scouts know that you are "reserving" the system name and prevents having a chain with duplicate names.

*It is also helpful to add other pertinent information about the system to the mapper:

**In all w-space systems, take note of the following and add the info to the system details: - ''see images on right''

***Piloted/unpiloted ships in POSes

***Anything else that is unique to this system and isn't otherwise easily known

**In Bacon or other C3 systems close to home, also add:

***The number of Combat Anomalies in the system
