"Rash Edits" - Your note on Scaletail's talk page
Hi Jake Command Wolf, and first off, welcome to this Wikia!
I noticed your earlier edits on the pictures and your message on Scaletail's talk page. I cannot speak for Scaletail, but I think I know why your edits were reverted: The pictures were user generated. Note that this is not a problem per se; in fact, fan art is positively welcome on this wiki as per Policy:Notability which states that "anything that has to do with BattleTech warrants inclusion". However, non-official (fan-made) material should be segregated from official/licensed material. See also Policy:Canon.
The picture you uploaded (Timber Wolf.jpg) is apparently not directly taken from an official source and should therefore be marked as fan-made.
You then replaced the official Timber Wolf pics which is, I believe, against the aforementioned policies and I suppose that was the reason for Scaletail to undo your edit. The problem is not that you uploaded the pic, but that you removed the other one from the article.
I hope this explains the situation. Frabby 17:12, 24 October 2008 (CDT)
