Category talk:Clan Goliath Scorpion BattleMechs

I am curious as to how this list was compiled. The Pinion and Spirit do not belong, being exclusive Jade Falcon second line battlemechs and produced by Olivetti Weapons on Sudeten in the Inner Sphere during the 3060s. It's very unlikely that Clan Goliath Scorpion would ever have the opportunity to field these in its Touman. I have a more comprehensive list of Goliath Scorpion omnimechs and battlemechs from the 'Warden Clans' sourcebook, which I will add to this list. -- James Benedict

This is a category list,which is tags essentially to individual articles found on Sarna.Net. Their added by the individual editor or casual poster who cites a source. I'd check out the source, since Sarna doesn't necessary make definitive lists. I agree the Pinion and Spirit aren't part of the Goliath's touaman. They may have been added in error. -- Wrangler (talk) 23:58, 26 April 2019 (EDT)

A lot of mistakes slip in to the 'Mech categories due to the span of centuries covered by the BTU nothing really stays that exclusive. As such in the 3060s the Pinion and Spirit will of been exclusive, but by the 3140s some will of been salvaged, stolen, sold and any other number of methods of ownership change. On the wiki historically there has been a sort of slowmotion turf war over the 'Mech categories being "used by" or "Manufactured by". Personally I take the view that we do not need to try to out MUL the MUL, so the only things that should be in this category (and any specific faction category) are 'Mechs directly manufactured by the faction or for the faction.--Dmon (talk) 00:26, 27 April 2019 (EDT)
