: A reminder to all editors: Most BattleTech sourcebooks, rulebooks, etc. are written or annotated as in-universe documents. The [[Template:InfoBoxProduct]] was expanded back in 2013 already to include the in-universe agency that purportedly created the document, and when it was written/published in-universe. Product articles that were written before 2013 (mostly) haven't been updated yet to include this information, and newer articles often omit it because they are apparently created off an old article's structure with the older template in place. Given that "sneak preview" information about the year 3250 was provided in the framing context in recent products, all editors are encouraged to use the latest version of the template when creating new articles, and to update older articles.

Kudos to all contributors who are currently datamining the HBS BattleTech game and creating articles. However, a word of caution and a reminder: Please respect copyright, and refrain from simply copying & pasting text from the game. Unless you need to cite text verbatim, "fair use" does not apply. As is always pointed out below the edit box, by submitting an edit you declare "that you wrote [it] yourself, or copied it from a public domain or similar free resource."
The Sarna Unified Cartography Society has released an update to the SUC Kit, providing coordinates for the 16 systems from HBS' BattleTech game, as well as minor corrections to 118 other systems. See System coordinates for details and release version 2018.04.
It looks like user Fichtenschweif was mistaken for a spambot and deleted by accident. I unblocked the IP. Please accept our apologies, and re-register. (Update: Looks like I cannot unblock the IP as there's no way to find out what the IP even was. Fichtenschweif, please contact me if possible.)
