Quentin IV and Quentin III[edit]

Shortly after the prologue, in which Minobu Tetsuhara unwittingly spares the life of Jaime Wolf on Dromini VI, the book "Wolves on the Border" tells the story of the Wolf's Dragoons employment under House Kurita, beginning with their raid on Quentin ("Wolves on the Border", pp. 9-81). This raid includes the seizure of materials from Independence Weaponry in the name of the Draconis Combine.
However, the book's description of Quentin does not match the material on this page. The book says that the raid occurs on Quentin IV, an industrial world with high surface temperatures, plains, and oscillating mix of turbulent storms and desiccating conditions. The book also describes Quentin III, a world rich in raw materials but poorly habitable, requiring its inhabitants to remain in mines or environmentally sealed buildings.
Neither or these quite match with the description of the planet written here. Is "Wolves on the Border" considered canon?--S.gage (talk) 14:42, 6 June 2013 (PDT)

Multiple Issues Tag[edit]

Several issues have been observed on the page:

  • Confusion as to the identity of the pictured planet: Dark Age Republic Worlds puts it as Quentin VII, Handbook House Kurita as Quentin IV
  • Planetary flag is under Planetary Maps
  • General grammar and style

I renamed and moved the gallery, so at least one issue is addressed.--Cache (talk) 16:52, 20 February 2022 (EST)
I'm going to remove this tag. I just did a formatting cleanup to current standards. I caught a couple small grammar issues but if you feel like more can be done, feel free to go ahead and make those edits yourself, as we are one big happy volunteer community here. :) As to the position of the planet, it is the 4th, as the position given in DA:RW has expressly been declared an error in this ruling on the official BattleTech Forum.
