Thanks for your opinions. I was making further edits on Extensions page during yesterday: • Adding new data from my own station (to save the information before I buy new extensions) • Updating level requirements for local & international slot to current state of game (required levels were decreased in update in ca 2-3 months before) - currently there are fixed 15 level steps between each extensions • Adding missing gem costs & level requirements for local & IT slots (gem costs are constant in level range from 200 to 400 -> gem price is always 450 / 360 and level requirement is based on same fixed 15 level steps system as described above) • Added local & IT slots which we are currently missing (compared to TSED) • Cross-checking local & IT slots extensions data in level range from 200 to 400 with TSED (everything looked fine, I found only 1 error in 1 extension where there were only 2 types of material instead of correct 3, otherwise data here and in TSED were 100% compatible). • Furthermore, I contacted TrainStation Support - if they would be so kind to provide us with data source on extensions (and level-up data for Skip Lawson's project).

Thanks to my yesterday's edits & research I was finally able to conclude how is current state of missing extensions data. So where are we missing extensions costs? • Local train slots ... 9 extensions. • International train slots ... 9 extensions. • Everything else ... complete (with exception of some more missing gem costs / levels & gained XP).

The point is that it doesn't really look that bad as I was estimating in my previous comment. If we fill these 18 indicated holes in local & IT slots we should have up-to-date & complete (at least for extensions costs) database of all extensions. Because all these 'extensions holes' are in level range ca 300 - 600 (this would take very long time before other wiki visitors could confim) I would use TSED extensions cost data for these 18 holes now.

Pella - Method how to find out which data are confirmed (wiki original) and which data are unconfirmed (imported from TSED) is very simple -> GAINED XP (if there are question marks than it's from TSED).

I see that you are proposing to add new information fields (Pella = verified status, Katat0nyx = verified date) to the table, right? I wouldn't do this because: • There (in extensions tables) is very much information already -> readability would suffer. • All these missing extensions data problems are involving high level extensions ONLY (from level 250 upwards) which limits number of users able to confirm. • Certain method how to distinguish original and TSED data already exists (described above).

Katat0nyx - Good point about missing info concerning game updates involving extensions. I noticed that Mhommer has been doing some older games updates checking job recently and he added this kind of data to extensions. So we have at least data for year 201. For 2012 and 2013 we haven't anything about extensions changes in game updates. It would by good idea to add this (I will now add info for last extensions changing update).
