Welcome

Welcome, LittleWolf, to BattleTechWiki!

We look forward to your contributions and want to help you get off to a good strong start. Hopefully you will soon join the army of BattleTech Editors! If you need help formatting the pages, visit the manual of style. For general questions go to the Help section or the FAQ. If you can't find your answer there, please ask an Admin.


Additional tips
Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the wiki:

  • For policies and guidelines, see The Five Core Policies of BattleTechWiki and the BTW Policies. Another good place to check out is our market of Projects, to see how the smaller communities within BTW do things in their particular niche areas.
  • Each and every page (articles, policies, projects, images, etc.) has its very own discussion/talk page, found on the tab line at the top of the page. This is a great place to find out what the community is discussing along that subject and what previous issues have already been solved.
  • If you want to play around with your new wiki skills, the Sandbox is for you. Don't worry: you won't break anything. A great resource for printing out is the Wiki Cheat Sheet.
  • If you're not registered, then please consider doing so. At the very least, you'll have a UserPage that you own, rather than sharing one with the community.
  • Also consider writing something about yourself on your UserPage (marked as "LittleWolf" at the top of the page, though only do this if you're registered). You'll go from being a 'redshirt' to a 'blueshirt,' with the respect of a more permanent member.
    • This is really helpful for the admins, as it gives your account that touch of "humanity" that assists us in our never-ending battle with spambots.
  • For your first few edits on the wiki, please do not add any URLs (which can be an indicator of SPAM).
  • Consider introducing yourself on our Discord server.
  • In your Preferences, under the edit tab, consider checking Add pages I create to my watchlist and Add pages I edit to my watchlist, so that you can see how your efforts have affected the community. Check back on following visits by clicking on watchlist.
  • If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random button in the sidebar, or check out the List of Wanted Pages. Or even go to Special Pages to see what weird stuff is actually tracked by this wiki.
  • Please sign your name on Talk pages using four tildes (~~~~) or by clicking on the circled button in this image; this will automatically produce your name (or IP address, if you are editing anonymously) and the date.


Again, welcome to Sarna's BattleTechWiki!

Naval Support Vehicles

Hello LittleWolf, I wanted to let you know i changed the Categories on the big naval vehicle articles you updated. These vehicles like the Raptor, Luftenburg for example are listed by the rules as Support Vehicles are not Combat Vehicles despite their weaponry. Thank you for fixing up articles! I was rookie editor when i added them to the Sarna didn't so as good as a job when i wrote them. -- Wrangler

Sorry, just going through articles and thought I might tidy them up, the fact they're technically Support Vessels just slipped my mind. If there are other changes that need to be reverted please go ahead, otherwise I was just trying to stylistically spruce up the articles.LittleWolf 12:51, 28 March 2012 (PDT)

Hello

I saw the careful work you've put into the Clan Cloud Cobra page, and I added to it but didn't really change anything you had done. It flows quite well and covers everything in the early Golden Century. If you wanted to continue work on some of the Golden Century stuff with the Clans, that would be great, because Clan Coyote needs help soon. There are a few associated bios for me to still do for them and their activities so this will be on going. If not, it's cool too. Work on any Clan stuff is cool by me. --Rebs 12:29, 19 April 2012 (PDT)

Thank you. And thanks for the additions. I was thinking of doing a re-write of Clan Coyote sometime soon, in a similar style to the Cloud Cobra page, but these things take quite a bit of work and there is only so much time! If you get around to starting it before me I'll be happy to add on what I can when I can. LittleWolf 12:37, 19 April 2012 (PDT)
I'll do the Manfred Hollifield and Horse Khan Eric Amirault bios then maybe a Corian Tchernovkov and Tobias Khatib. That way all the stuff is gathered and research will be easier to do. Besides, I never know how many more names get dug up by a new bio (like I'll Probably have to do a Coyote Khan Judas Levien page too), and I like to finish the chain naturally, it helps. And only so much time. And likely more Cobra stuff fighting the Coyotes after Tobias Khatib is executed. The chain is long and heavy, then I'll get to the many Ravens and Blood Spirits, and then a Mongoose page revamp with all of the facts gathered in the bios to make that a lot easier. Then find a new chain. If any point in the chain is interesting, feel free to set info down if time permits it, even if it takes a few weeks or a month or two. This will be fun. edit: Did i mention probably have to supply the Fire Mandrill bios for founders and Smyhre-Jewels, events with Tchernovkovs and Amirault... --Rebs 13:14, 19 April 2012 (PDT)
I went ahead and subdivided the history section on Clan Coyote. I think I may finish out all the bios I can for the Coyotes since there is enough info to cover several more of their Khans. I've already added supporting refs to the Khans and saKhans. If the page looks good to you you could start any section. I'll hit the Operation Klondike one soon myself, so the early years, Golden Century and Political Century and later stuff can all be added at any time in any order. Like I said, I'll keep chugging along with bios. --Rebs 13:35, 21 April 2012 (PDT)
Thanks, I'll make a few small changes here and there but probably wont start getting in-depth for a few more days, working on some other content at the moment. LittleWolf 11:45, 29 April 2012 (PDT)
Cool! No problem on adding other content, we all have our roles. I'm reading up on more stuff at the moment to finish the last few Coyote Khans which might take a little more time, but it will be done soon enough. This re-worked Coyote page will be a good one. --Rebs 14:17, 29 April 2012 (PDT)
Hey LittleWolf, hope all is well on your end of the world. Anyway, just wanted to ask you if you had The Wars of Reaving or Golden Century sourcebooks. Respectively, those are the only eras left to write about (except for the Blood Scandal during the political century, but that will be easy to do). Also, we likely will not need the Jihad section since it did not affect the Coyotes or most of the Clans that they deal with on a daily basis. Just wanted to know what you thought, and also what sections you would like to finish. --Rebs 14:00, 14 May 2012 (PDT)
Nope so go ahead and fill in whatever gaps there are, I'll add in parts here and there as I see them. Thanks. LittleWolf 10:41, 17 May 2012 (PDT)
The Clan Coyote page is good to go! (unless I missed something, which could have happened) If you would like to run through it on a massive copy edit spree, please feel welcome to do so. I'll get to the Clan Cloud Cobra Wars of Reaving section soon. That will be two Clan pages updated. Clan Star Adder and Clan Steel Viper (the viper page is anemic) need to be next, due to their prominence in the over-all story. Really, all Clan pages are important, even if they did not survive, but those two should be focused on next. If you have any suggestions, let me know. I'll be doing more bios and filling in red links until i feel up to what needs to be done. Nice workin' with ya. --Rebs 17:30, 23 May 2012 (PDT)
Thanks again. Will get around to giving the Clan pages a do-over as well, but will be splitting my time between that and some other projects too. I think the general outline of the reedited pages is a pretty good standard for future changes (History-Culture-Military) but I think it can be expanded too i.e. Economy. I also think the use of sub-titles has been appropriate for periods of great significance and detail as well (ex. Coyote didn't take part in Revival so that section is small vs. Ghost Bear which could use a more in-depth approach at its actions during the Invasion). But great work on the bios, that's one thing that really needs expansion if anything else. LittleWolf 09:46, 31 May 2012 (PDT)
Ghost Bear would be a GREAT challenge. If you noticed, I have not done a single Bear Bio yet... I'm saving them for later when I need cool characters to pull me through! The Bear page and the Viper page would be great targets as they both took part in Revival, and both have very large parts to play in the universe afterward. At least the Bears get to live to see it. The Star Adder page simply needs organization and fleshing out by comparison. The Wolf page (surprisingly) needs some help too... The Jade Falcon page is pretty good, just some cleanup needed, and the Jaguar page is almost complete too, except for some finishing touches (and a lot of references)...
...if only time could be created from lack of time. Slowly but surely these things will come to pass. Anyway, I agree, the pattern created holds up well to examination, and the subtitling is good too. Take your time and when you feel ready drop me a line, maybe I'll be ready too. --Rebs 00:12, 6 June 2012 (PDT)

Great Output

Hey LittleWolf. Covering all of the personal weapons and such was a big job, and you waded in and did that easily. New Clan stuff is always welcome too. Your recent additions and corrections to the Clan page and the Clan Steel Viper article (among other pages) are likewise encouraging for me to see. And I remember your help with Clan Coyote, as spoken of at length above. Please accept this award as a token of your devotion to MechWarrior and Team Clan, and Sarna editors in general Smiley.gif.

Hey thanks, I'm kinda scattershot in what and when I edit but I appreciate this.LittleWolf (talk) 13:10, 1 March 2013 (PST)
