Just an idea: maybe we can have separate fields for system, body it orbits (star in case of planet, planet in case of moon), and orbital position (for example: "Five" for Hestia V, "Seven" for Meridian). The latter would also be more useful when we know position but not system name, as is the case with Duraan. With how it is right now, it feels kind of weird that system and orbital position are sharing a field. Any thoughts? --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 14:03, 1 May 2016 (EDT)

:Also, I've been wondering whether it is even necessary to include the Tech Tier field in the infobox. The Tech Tiers seem to be based on species majority, rather than individual planets. We really only officially know the Tech Tier for a handful of worlds, as I'd expect there to be some difference between tech on Aleria compared to Earth, Mars, or Tribute. It's made even more confusing when we have contested worlds with Tier 2 Covenant species living with Tier 3 humans. --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 00:52, 2 May 2016 (EDT)
