I think it would make more sense to merge the fields for "moons" and "satellites" into a single field. In common usage the term "satellite" refers to a moon, and listing artificial satellites in the infobox would often result in a massive list, at least with prominent worlds like Earth and Reach. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 02:19, 11 June 2012 (EDT) | |||

Proposal
As well as splitting up the planets location, actual physical description and the description of what faction occupies it and in what capacity it does so into separate sections, how is also adding a section detailing any significant and important infrastructure and installations that the world may have? (Also added would be the world's nature as either being a faction's homeworld or colony, the date it was founded (This one is only really applicable for a colony) and what the world's main function was usually regarded as.) An example below:
|name= |image= Location |star, position= Physical Description |moon(s)= |satellite(s)= |diameter= |gravity= |daylength= |yearlength= |atmosphere= |temperature= |composition= |adjective= Affiliation |species= |population= |nature= (Homeworld or colony) |date founded= |principle function= (E.g agriculture, economic, cultural, military, industrial, leisure, etc) |societal approximation= |government= |technology tier= |current threat to array= Notable Infrastructure (???) |government= (E.g. HIGHCOM Bravo-6, FLEETCOM HQ, etc) |industrial= (E.g. Shipyards, Armories, orbital tethers etc) |commercial= (E.g. Traxus, Asklon, etc)

- Nice work, should "Demonym" be used in favour of "Adjective" though? -TheLostJedi 07:43, 12 December 2011 (EST)
- Tagged to be updated. On the above note, to the best of my knowledge, I don't think there was any demonym used in the Halo fiction but I am prepared to be enlightened. :P — subtank 07:54, 12 December 2011 (EST)
- In addition to the existing demonyms for the worlds in Sol, Bungie's "Meet the Squad" feature has demonyms for Draco III (Draconian) and Madrigal (Madrigali).--Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 08:48, 12 December 2011 (EST)

Moons/Satellites
I think it would make more sense to merge the fields for "moons" and "satellites" into a single field. In common usage the term "satellite" refers to a moon, and listing artificial satellites in the infobox would often result in a massive list, at least with prominent worlds like Earth and Reach. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 02:19, 11 June 2012 (EDT)
