Interstellar Players 3: Interstellar Expeditions Info
I am making this note for anyone adding further information to this article. I reframed from adding information from ISP3 Interstellar Expeditions due to fact largely due to nature of this plot book/source book. The book is considered to be semi/quasi-canon, other words its canon is as solid as other sources because its a "What-If" book. It does not specify last time I looked at it, what is solid canon and what isn't. I'm sure Von Strang's World information could be solid canon, but i didn't want to chance it. -- Wrangler (talk) 05:02, 25 June 2014 (PDT)
- What makes you say it's a What-If book/semi-canon? I figured it's a fully canonical in-universe sourcebook. ISP and ISP2 both explicitly state that their content should be taken with a grain of salt; not so ISP3, which is presented as a no-nonsense corporate file. Frabby (talk) 13:56, 25 June 2014 (PDT)
- The "How to use this book" section of ISP3 confirms it is the same as the earlier ISPs and the Jihad Hot Spot books, its a mix of truth and "optional elements" which are are true until proven otherwise. On that basis I believe we should include the info still, perhaps using some language along the lines of "IE's sources indicate/believe", and update as/if any new info comes to dispute/dispel it as per any new trumps old source.Cyc (talk) 15:22, 25 June 2014 (PDT)
