Talk:Skaarj Space Fighter

Skaarj Space Fighter vs Skaarj Spacefighter

What should the name of this page be? In game, it says Skaarj Spacefighter when you get in, but other references have a space or capitalize fighter without having a space. The same applies to the human variety. — Haarg 21:16, 24 February 2008 (EST)

The UT2004 manual actually uses both: "Spacefighter" for the description and "Space Fighter" for the controls section. With this in mind, I don't really think it matters much which we use (as Epic themselves don't quite know either), and sticking to "Space Fighter" would save quite a bit of work. Speaking of the manual: I see that the vehicle's description in it is 2-3 times longer than the one om the article (which is take from the UT2004 website). Should I add the rest of the description and change the source? --Kaithofis 22:15, 24 February 2008 (EST)

Copying it from the game manual sounds like a good idea. For the name, given that there isn't any consistency, I'll go with the current title, and adjust links to point to it. — Haarg 00:12, 25 February 2008 (EST)

Although I personally wish they weren't, Epic is inconsistent somewhat... uhm, consistently. "Alternate fire" is sometimes called "secondary fire" I think, "taridum" sometimes gets a capital T, and you'll find lots of other examples if you try to use exactly the right spelling but notice that sometimes you really can't. I suppose if games like UT don't really need story lines, spelling consistency is even less important for them. :) Retodon8 21:15, 25 February 2008 (EST)
