Hello, Guardsman. Welcome to Sarna.net! Recently saw you upload some images, which been colorized and do not cite percide source they came from. Any image or content that does not come from a canon source, needs to have notation that cites that its fanom. Template gallery lists the proper templates and how to apply them.

Hello, Guardsman. Welcome to Sarna.net! Recently saw you upload some images, which been colorized and do not cite percide source they came from. Any image or content that does not come from a canon source, needs to have notation that cites that its fanom. Template gallery lists the proper templates and how to apply them.

- I am in the process of overhauling entries for the Oberon Confederaton, Rim Collection, Rim Territories, and Rim Worlds Republic. I am doing most of the work in Microsoft Word for now, but I have uploaded some images to make sure that the links will work when I add the overhauled text. I am not sure what the term “fanom” means, but I will add sources to the images I’ve uploaded. I was recently talking to someone on ClassicBattleTech.com and I realised that I have a bit of an encyclopaedic knowledge of the Rim Worlds Republic and its successors, I have access to a wide variety of sources, with a fairly good idea of where to find canon sources that support my claims, and that Sarna was somewhat lacking in this area, so rather than ignore it, I’m going to do something about it to help the BattleTech community.-- Guardsman 04:54, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
