If you are interested in contributing by adding coordinates and such, you may also wish to ask over at WikiProject Geography and WikiProject Maps. Zupotachyon (talk) 01:41, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Zupotachyon, that's already very helpful, thanks a lot. I thought to contribute to things like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Spaceflight_articles_needing_infoboxes and am therefore searching for "templates" (minimum infobox template, overview of all relevant parameters if applicable to the respective article). I think this is a structured way to begin and won't have too many conflicts. Other ideas I would first discuss on the respective talk page. On OSM, I'm mainly interested in POIs and their standardisation (namespace syntax) for a proper usage. So the idea with the infoboxes enhancement is similar. The page syntax itself seems nearly the same as on OSM, so this should work. dulliman Dulliman (talk) 11:59, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
After some search I meanwhile started on the German page. Seems there's a bit of consolidation to be done (in terms of RTFM/standardisation). Thanks again for the entry hints. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_Diskussion:Raumfahrt#Vorlage_%22Infobox_Weltraumbahnhof%22%2C_%22Private_Raumfahrtunternehmen%22  Dulliman (talk) 13:17, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Good to hear you're on your way. If you're looking for templates I don't have much advice other than to check articles that do have templates and are related to the ones you are trying to improve, and copy those templates over. You may also be interested in asking at Wikipedia:WikiProject Spaceflight for additional information from others who are more knowledgeable about the style preferences.
