I mirrored the Lunarpedia article as a starting point. Would it be better to create a separate article in each Wiki, or one shared article between the two?--Nate 00:37, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
- What is the mirroring good for? As far as I understand, the content shall only be edited on Lunarpedia, and then be copied to Marspedia, keeping the contents identical. What is the advantage over a simple interwiki link, e.g. lunarp:Luna-Mars Trade? -- Rfc 19:54, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

- Keeping and maintaining two pages is more work than having just one of the pages. Moreover, there is the risk of inconsistency. What about the following idea: We can have an article Interplanetary trade on Marspedia that deals with interplanetary trade from the Martian viewpoint. This article will have a paragraph Luna-Mars Trade. On the other side we can have an article Interplanetary trade on Lunarpedia that deals with interplanetary trade from the Lunar viewpoint. Also, this article will have a paragraph Luna-Mars Trade. More paragraphs could deal with Venusian and Jupiter Moon trade, etc. Of course, the two articles should be linked to each other. I think, the articles will differ heavily, also for example, the Martian landing details will be only on Marspedia, whereas the Lunar space access will be described on Lunarpedia more detailed. What do you think? -- Rfc 16:05, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
- Those ideas sound good. I will work on organizing the "business" stuff. How does this outline look?:
- Commerce
- Interplanetary commerce - Already exists (though most content is earth-mars near term concepts)
- Venus-Mars Trade
- Earth-Mars Trade
- Luna-Mars Trade - Already exists, but mirrored from lunarp, and lunar-centered.
- Jovian Moon-Mars Trade
