Revision as of 22:20, 15 March 2017 by Abelard Andedare (talk | contribs) (→Plan of Action: import of old data complete)
A complete rewrite of the 3rd Party Tools article, with an eye towards usability and maintainability
Plan of Action
Initial layout and information gatheringincorporation of all standalone or web hosted tools from the #tweetfleet awesome-eve listchecking and incorporation of all relevant entries from the old page- copy editing
- peer review
- publication
- moving of leftover resources to a new page to compliment this one, with "reference material" and "news"

Outstanding Issues
- Should self-hosted web-apps (requiring a LAMP stack or equivalent) be included?
- Should there be a stated procedure for being included / not included? For instance, how long should a tool go without update before it is removed?
- What to do with items that were on the old list but should not have been, like the Eve Acronyms website?
- I lean towards making a separate "new player resources" article, perhaps as a part of my guide to getting yourself set up that is currently WIP

Reference Sites
The following entries are being left out because they are not tools per se, and should be part of a separate "Further Resource" type of page
- Eve News - news aggregators don't really belong here
- EN24 - news aggregators don't really belong here
- The Mittani dot com - news aggregators don't really belong here
- Chruker's EVE site - Reference sites belong elsewhere
- Cerlestes Ore and Ice Tables - Reference sites belong elsewhere
