archwizards of the wiki :shock:
Processing Error List is a "special page" on the wiki.

The 1,000-odd entries seem to refer almost entirely to bad values in the ship info box templates (from what I can discern).

Am I correct in presuming that this is nothing to worry about?

Maybe some of them link to Dynamic Ship List (Oolite)? But does anybody ever look at that wiki page?

As there seems to be some core (Standard) ships in the list, then perhaps the Wiki needs to accept "N/A" as a valid entry.

I'd say yes, you are correct. Mind you, I ain't a Wiki Wizard.

Yes I think not worrisome until someone gets a more advanced idea of how to use the data. The templates are dissatisfied with undefined values such as N/A or "₢" that haven't been defined, but since they aren't assigned to do anything with the numbers other than order them by value, it's not important. The Dynamic_Ship_List seems doesn't have a role for "unknown", but that still works since the value is, unknown..

I've looked at that page many times since my return.

As Murgh mentioned earlier, the reason for these errors is a bit unflexible template. Except the sort order, no consequences I could see.
