Excellent! 
Two questions, probably of newbish quality.
1) If I have a group and a plot of the same name, how do I distinguish between them? Example: Hand of Andros
2) How to create a disambiguation page? Example: Nadia, which would include at least Sword of Truth (Nadia Troy), Light of Truth (Nadia Forester) and ND (Nadia).
Mechano! New Mafia was involved in that plot too, you've left us out! Don't make me come down to Croydon 
Hi Coile, more questions!! Not sure what you mean though; if its a supergroup Plot Profile then I'd write it as Silent Tempest/Hand of Andros and if its a community Plot Profile then the title might be Hand of Andros.
Disambiguation pages; good question. Just like it has been done on this page, you can write up a normal article called Nadia (disambiguation) which lists all what the name may refer to. And then offer a link to the disambiguation page on each of those reference pages. Also, you can use the #REDIRECT [[<enterpagehere>]] code to direct incorrect page searches to its correct location by making the incorrect or inaccurate page and applying the code to it instead of an article.
1: You could use Hand_of_Andros(Group) for the first. Or Category:Hand_of_Andros, like I've done for the MYRS project, then set up a redirect for it at the page Hand of Andros(Group). There might be an easier way to do it, but those are the two that are apparenty for me at the moment.
2. Oooh... tough one, I think I read how to do it, but... it currently eludes me. I'll check the main wiki later (as in, Wikipedia) to find out.
Beat ya to it Z 
Damn you, Pious. I'll beat you next time.
*Checks to do list*
Newspaper template. Just need to wait for my Wiki-fu to recharge some first, its been a little flat lately :S
I just posted up Polymorphic Fibre Weave using the new items template, saving me five minutes of typing everytime someone goes "Polymorphic what?", and im especially proud of putting up IC Rumour footnote Sandra, and Tracey in the NP Character section!

Mate, the villain I created as nemesis to my main Blue Rush is called Dr. Mechanix... Should we do something about the name similarity? Use it to start up something good?
I added the Walkie-Toaster as an item.
Can you (Doctor Mechano) please check it, correct it or approve of it?

Im still amazed at what was meant to be an offhanded insult to Mechano's bots turned into what is now an established part of Union history.
Im going to be more careful when I open my mouth in future.
(Great Walkie-Toaster pic by the way! )
ROFL The best way to start the afternoon!! If I hadn't put my tea down I would have splurted all over the keyboard - well done Terrance!
Hehehe
Makes me wonder though... the owners of the ... hmmmm... decomissioned toasters. Were they compensated?

ROFL! The things you lot come up with, its a right laugh! All hail Terrance and the army of toasters!

Basically, this is a request to the creative designers in our little roleplaying community. Currently, I have Hero1 standing proud for Union, but I'm sure you guys can design a better banner, so have a go at it. The byte-size doesn't really matter but it needs to be 1082(w)x142(h) in pixels to sit nicely on the average monitor (sorry if you have a small monitor, it still looks sort of okay). The chosen design will be decided by public vote. Deadline for entries; 20th August (six days is enough, its just a banner). Voting begins the day after entry deadlines, the 21st. Deadline for votes; 24th August. The image can be of anything at all, so long as it relates to the Union Universe.

There has only been one new idea for a banner, are there any others, want us to extend the deadline? Zortel, did you have a few ideas? Should we toggle through banners as we do with featured articles and news?
Banners are on a backburner for me. Can always toggle through them weekly.
I 'almost' finished a new npc group of the vampire elders.. calling themselves the Council of X.
- The Italian Job: The Godfather Returns #1151
Beginner - Encounter a renewed age for the Mook and the Family when Emile Marcone escapes from the Zig!
- Along Came a... Bug!? #528482
Average - A new race of aliens arrives on Earth. And Vanguard has you investigate them!
- The Court of the Blood Countess: The Rise of the Blood Countess #3805
Advanced - Go back in time and witness the birth of a vampire. Follow her to key moments in her life in order to stop her! A story of intrigue, drama and horror! Blood & Violence... not recommend to solo!
I smell a never-ending plot Liz. The Council of X and the Court may be hearing of the Priest all too soon.
Not too soon.. cause Liz is going to the next council meeting in India for two weeks... (now you know where the urgency of this council came from) ... hehehe...

Currently working on the newspaper box (At last, yes :P)
Had some people requesting that the level and AT is removed from the NPC box, which makes sense to me, and also been asked if an 'article' category under Items for news articles that aren't part of any of the IC newspapers thare are often used would be good.
A few other things I was pondering, but that's it for now, getting my motivation back for working on the wiki.
About the newspapers... would it be an idea to list the editions, rather then show them fully? And then link to the picture if people want to see it?
Oh, and I have an idea for a banner, but... well, I thought the deadline had passed already.
I may still make it and see if it's liked or not

If you have nothing useful to say, you have two choices: Say something useless or stay quiet.
Basically, it'll work like this.
You have Category:Items. Then in there is the Newspapers Category. Click on there and it'll show The Paragon Metro, Paragon City Post, the Inquirer, The Paragon Times, et cetera. Click on one of them to to go to that newspaper's page, where there'll then be a list, like is done with Nightsparrow's Scrapbook.
