Welcome[edit]
Welcome, Gardnertravis, to BattleTechWiki!
We look forward to your contributions and want to help you get off to a good strong start. Hopefully you will soon join the army of BattleTech Editors! If you need help formatting the pages, visit the manual of style. For general questions go to the Help section or the FAQ. If you can't find your answer there, please ask an Admin.
Additional tips
Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the wiki:
- For policies and guidelines, see The Five Core Policies of BattleTechWiki and the BTW Policies. Another good place to check out is our
market of Projects, to see how the smaller communities within BTW do things in their particular niche areas.
- Each and every page (articles, policies, projects, images, etc.) has its very own discussion/talk page, found on the tab line at the top of the page. This is a great place to find out what the community is discussing along that subject and what previous issues have already been solved.
- If you want to play around with your new wiki skills, the Sandbox is for you. Don't worry: you won't break anything. A great resource for printing out is the Wiki Cheat Sheet.
- If you're not registered, then please consider doing so. At the very least, you'll have a UserPage that you own, rather than sharing one with the community.
- Also consider writing something about yourself on your UserPage (marked as "Gardnertravis" at the top of the page, though only do this if you're registered). You'll go from being a 'redshirt' to a 'blueshirt,' with the respect of a more permanent member.
- This is really helpful for the admins, as it gives your account that touch of "humanity" that assists us in our never-ending battle with spambots.
- For your first few edits on the wiki, please do not add any URLs (which can be an indicator of SPAM).
- Consider introducing yourself on our Discord server.
- In your Preferences, under the edit tab, consider checking Add pages I create to my watchlist and Add pages I edit to my watchlist, so that you can see how your efforts have affected the community. Check back on following visits by clicking on watchlist.
- If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random button in the sidebar, or check out the List of Wanted Pages. Or even go to Special Pages to see what weird stuff is actually tracked by this wiki.
- Please sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) or by clicking on the circled button in this image; this will automatically produce your name (or IP address, if you are editing anonymously) and the date.
Again, welcome to Sarna's BattleTechWiki!

TRO's 2750 and 3050 Artists[edit]
Hello and (a delayed) welcome to editing Sarna. You appear to have more in-depth artist information for TRO2750 and TRO3050 than is available in the books themselves, which is a good thing. May I ask how you came across this information? Thank you.--Cache (talk) 14:32, 19 July 2021 (EDT)
- A: Hi Cache, I produce Renegade HPG on YouTube and get to connect with a lot of artists on the podcast. After my recent conversation with Joel Biske it became apparent that most of the line art from those TROs was miscredited. I asked Joel to send a spreadsheet with the proper attributions and then used that to update Sarna.— The preceding unsigned comment was posted by Gardnertravis (talk • contribs) 09:33, 31 July 2021.
- Outstanding! The corrections are greatly appreciated. For the effort:
- Would you mind if I hit you up for info on other, older artwork once in a while? There are quite a few character portraits that I suspect Mr. Biske has done, but I can't find definite attribution.--Cache (talk) 12:08, 31 July 2021 (EDT)
You can actually reach out to Joel directly on Facebook. He is quite responsive and I'm sure he'd be happy to confirm what he did and did not ink.
