Welcome to '''BattleTechWiki:Project Clans'''. Several users have formed this collaboration resource and group dedicated to improving BattleTechWiki's coverage of the Clans to include such things as their Way of Life, Rites, Customs, Organization, and other such articles. Additionally we look at how the organization of information and articles on this topic should be standardized. This page and its subpages contain suggestions and various resources to these ends; it is hoped that this project will help to focus the efforts of other editors interested in the topic. If you would like to help, please [[#Participants|add yourself as a participant]] in the project, inquire on the discussion page, and see the [[#Open tasks|to-do list]], below.

The many editors over the years have done an awesome job of making sure the entries of the militaries or ''Toumans'' of the Clans have been kept up-to-date, however the culture entries seems to either lack fullness, are in dire need of a clean up, or in some cases are grossly out of date.

The scope of this project is broad so we will be coming out with different focus points as we see how much content there is to edit. As we are dealing with such a big part of Battletech, it will take time to make sure our references are correct. However, the Clans also had many personalities that were involved with the fiction that we need to make sure are referenced correctly as they may have references already on the wiki yet not marked.
