:: How do I find a list of all the images we already have uploaded?  I can see all the ones I'm following, but I want to see what already exists before deciding to take screenshots and duplicate something we might already have.  [[User:Robbx213|Robbx213]] 00:04, 7 October 2012 (EDT)  I found a decent Chrys pic without any background.  I don't see an jpg, gif, or png files in the demo folders so I probably won't figure out how get to the game pics on my own.  The only other pic I can think of that might be better is whatever is shown in the research pane when you research the specific alien, but I obviously haven't seen that yet.

Confirmation

I have never heard of the Elite Muton, Ethereal or the Ethereal Uber confirmed in this game. Can anyone confirm these with valid sources? --Kokkan 06:03, 4 October 2012 (EDT)

The 3 are confirmed, from several posts at the 2K forums and from the info on the demo files. The only doubt is about the name of the big Ethereal, the game code names it as Ethereal Uber but on the 2k forums I've seen 'Ethereal Commander' Hobbes 09:14, 4 October 2012 (EDT)

Format

What do you guys think of a format like this? It makes each race a sub-section (I would recommend alphabetic), which could help with inter-wiki links from other pages. It gives the name, a quick couple sentences about the unit, bulleted list of abilities or special things about it, and then a thumbnail picture so you can see what it looks like.

Good, keep it short (so that most of the content will be on the individual page about the alien). This page is more of a jump-off point to the individual alien races. Hobbes 06:31, 6 October 2012 (EDT)
