Line 97: ==Present tense vs. past tense in articles== ==Present tense vs. past tense in articles== − Hi, in reference to your recent edits to the [[Excalibur (DropShip class)]] article, I notice you changed the text into past tense. While I admit this wiki doesn't have a proper policy about the issue in place, my understanding is that Sarna doesn't have a timeline viewpoint or "current" timeline. I think we're only writing characters and event articles in past tense because characters die and events pass; by contrast, designs (like 'Mech, vehicle, DropShip, etc.) are covered in the present tense because their stats and descriptions will never become a thing of the past.

That's... messy, with regards to the article structure we're maintaining here. Can you rename the article, or merge it into articles for existing militaries such as the [[Com Guards]] or [[Word of Blake Militia]]?
