Progress & Workload Distribution
Kyren:
Below is the same table from the Table of Contents discussion, and I'll regularly update it to fit within our plans. Only here, we'll write down which person is taking which task and which areas are completed already. That'll allow us to shift our ressources to where they're needed most!
It's a monumental task, but don't worry too much, because a lot of work has been done for us already. In many cases, we only need to fit the single parts together (actualize them, format them, make them fit with the rest of the Guide. The two latter may well be done once we've got all the single pieces together, so don't worry about that.)
Sources to take information, pictures, etc. from: Guide Overview
If you are using a Guide by someone else, make sure they allow it! Send a friendly message their way, and tell us your sources, so that everyone that helped in any way possible receives credit! We don't want to steal stuff and make it look like we've done it, we want to combine already existing things with their authors consent into a proper manual.
HamsterIV has allowed us to take content from his Piloting Guide! Make sure to make good use of it, and thank him for his contribution!
White: Has not been claimed yet
Orange: Has a base / someone working on it
Green: Completed!
So, if you feel like writing something up on a section, post here! We need all the help we can get :) You'll also help a lot already if you can get in contact with a Guide author and ask for permission to use his/her Guide for this one here.

Fluitaire:
I will take Guns of Icarus Online down to Features if you don't mind. I have already started work on the devs and the other parts shouldn't be hard to write up. I'll probably have to ask Howard for how he would like that first and last part to go though so it may end up being a collaboration.
Wazulu :
Hmm, I'm willing to take most in-game topics, although for the Lore section I'd refer to Tim and Jess, considering they know the most. For each guide do we want a similar style, or is the knowledge more key to it?
Queso:
I could probably take ship basics. Do you want writing and images? Formatted as a forum post? Written as a guide or a wiki entry?
Lord Dick Tim:
I want to work on lore, I really really do, but I think it might be best till we have all the faction information out there then it can be condensed down.
