Centralized Starbound info

    Is there any place that has everything or links to everything official Starbound?
    I feel like I find bits and pieces everywhere. Some in the FAQ, some in the forums, some in IRC, some on Youtube, etc. The masterpost of all things that are confirmed to be in game is great, but doesn't have pictures or video (or links to them). I just hear people discussing things that are rumored to be in game, but lots of people have hard times finding the sources.
    Any answers or ideas?

    The problem with asking for a "one resource to centralize them all" is...

    (inspired by xkcd's Standards comic).

    You can't solve a problem of "too many sites with similar content" by creating yet another site in an attempt to "centralize" all the content. Instead, wait for the beta/release to come out (which will massively increase the amount of available info), and give all these sites a chance to compete with each other. Sooner or later, content will tend to centralize on its own, as as editors and readers flock to the most popular resource. Eventually, the less-popular sites will tend to shut down or be absorbed by more popular sites, and the problem will solve itself.

    Besides, gamepedia is the best, as seen with Terraria.

    Duh.

    That's great and all. But I'm not looking for info about the game. People just make crazy claims, so it'd be nice for them to be able to find sources.

    Starbounder tends to be pretty well sourced. Dig around, I'm not sure they've got everything, but they've certainly got a considerable bulk of the confirmed content.
