User blog:Somarinoa/New Pages to Expect - January 2014

Man, it's been a while since I wrote a blog on here, huh?

Posting to let everyone know that I have lately been purchasing apps on my newly-upgraded Android phone, and have been focusing primarily on games that have aliens in them. A primary reason for this of course is to support us here at ASW (my apparent lack of participation has far more to do with a load of adult responsibilities than it has to do with lack of enthusiasm for us here).

While the primary app I downloaded was Star Wars: Tiny Death Star (which really won't serve any purpose here at all), I do have others such as A Space Shooter For Free! and Star Command which I will be working on adding here to ASW; unfortunately I don't know how to take screenshots from my phone to use here so at least currently these will likely all be missing their images (though will have the appropriate template stating so). However, you can expect plenty of new pages from small games to be appearing on here. However, I plan to finish my work on Felucia first, as it is one of my favorite Star Wars planets. That being said, there aren't too many more races to add to it at this point.

I am also considering creating or having one of us create a "No Image Available" or "No Image Exists" image for articles where no art has ever been drawn for it, as a way to make it obvious and thereby prevent people from effortlessly seeking out images for these types of articles. Perhaps a different silhouette-type image for aliens (Grey Alien?), characters (Samus Aran or Boba Fett?), planets (Earth?), substances (unknown), and affiliations (Rebel Alliance or Galactic Empire emblem, perhaps?). Technology (some sort of starship or a lightsaber or blaster) and Event (???), too, if we have plenty of those pages at this point, though I don't believe that we do off the top of my head. Any thoughts and/or opinions would certainly be helpful. — Somarinoa (talk) 04:10, January 4, 2014 (UTC)
