Placeholder articles
Hi Neuling, and thank you for the mercenary command articles. Two points though: You have inserted a "cleanup" tag, but I think the template you really want to use is "stub". Which brings me to the second point, do you intend to expand these placeholders into full articles? If so, great; but if not, then be advised that we have the List of minor mercenary units article specifically for the purpose of putting down such data. If and when you have enough material on a merc unit to warrant their own article, go ahead and create the article (deleting the unit from the List article). But please do not create essentially empty placeholders. Frabby 09:09, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Thank you.
Use NEW Merc template
Hello Neuling, there have been recent changes to Sarna's website. As you are placing high number of mercenary articles on line. It appears your still using the OLD template that has problems. Recently a new ones has been made, please use; Help:CreateMercenaryUnitArticle. -- Wrangler 12:09, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
Operation Guerrero changes
Hi. I'm the guy who wrote the Operation Guerrero page, and I was wondering why you removed so much of the article. Several of the elements that you excised, particularly the Capellan operations, were needed to properly set the stage for the invasion in my opinion. --Mbear 13:08, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
- I've restored most of my original article text. I've also included the summary tables you created. I did this for several reasons:
- You removed information that was important to the article. (Pre-Guerrero Capellan operations)
- The text you included was confusing.
- Some of the text you had (units, etc.) was incorrect.
- I really like the tables you created and wish I had thought of them first. I think that between your summary tables and my original text the article is great. I hope you agree with me once you've reviewed the article. --Mbear 22:09, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
Image Question

DCMS Unit tables
Hey bro, Not to be a killjoy or anything but looking at your new unit tables in the DCMS article I think we should possibly consider rolling them back to the old way as IMHO they are a little "squashed" looking now. --Dmon 15:45, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
- and looking at it again it also removes the individual brigades from the contenst at the top of the page. --Dmon 15:48, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
Clan Goliath Scorpion page update
Neuling, I finished making the Goliath Scorpion rank insignia. After I put them on the appropriate rank pages, I also updated the Clan Goliath Scorpion page with to use the images. I've also moved the Rank insignia to near the bottom of the page so the unit organization information can stay together. Hope you like it!--Mbear 18:32, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
- Hi Mbear, I overworked the clan articles for you. You can put your images/files direct in the table. The ranktable is only a shell for your work. Great that we can work together and yes I like your work. Neuling 00:29, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
Award: Image Import
Neuling, normally I would wait to see how someone uses the images they imported before providing this award, but I have confidence you'll be placing them all in their respective articles or a gallery very shortly. So, in light of the sheer amount of uploading of new imagery you did today (95 at current count), I award you the II ribbon:
Congratulations and keep working on your project. --Revanche (talk|contribs) 02:23, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
- Also, you might want to take a look at the Automatic Awards. I see you are entitled to two of them, already. --Revanche (talk|contribs) 02:31, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
Warrior House logos
Why did you upload the Warrior House .png pics when there are .jpg files available already? Frabby 20:36, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
- This fact was unknown to me. Where can i see which logos are availabe? Neuling 20:44, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
- Regarding the Warrior Houses, they can be seen in the individual House articles (i.e. Warrior House Imarra, Warrior House Kamata, Warrior House Hiritsu, etc.). Frabby 21:54, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
All Purpose Award
You get the All Purpose Award for your work on improving the listing of the armed forces of the succession states:
Keep going! --Neufeld 11:29, 25 March 2010 (UTC)
Clean-ups
Good morning, Neuling. Please review your recent contributions, such as those for Word of Blake ROM and Tmi, as well as others. Other Editors have noted that the articles don't meet BTW's standards for informative articles and don't have the criteria for proper formatting. I'd prefer you complete some of these articles, by providing wikilinks and references and describing what they are [what is 'Tmi'? I've never heard of it.], before adding more articles. Since they are notable enough to be included by you, I hope they're notable enough to be saved by you, as well. Thank you. --Revanche (talk|contribs) 11:28, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
- Tnx for your advise, I will rework my articles and add more information + pictures to them. The evidence with the reference will also include in my work. Give me one day and post me then your thoughts about the rework. Neuling 01:57, 28 March 2010 (UTC)
ComStar ROM
Evening, Neuling. Please consider merging Rom comstar with the pre-existing ROM. Its been decided that there shall only be two articles: ROM (which deals with ComStar ROM from its inception, thru the Schism, to the current Jihad era) and Word of Blake ROM, which starts at the Schism. --Revanche (talk|contribs) 01:22, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
- Hi, I have no problem with your decicion. I put the two articles from me in to the existing ROM article. I can't decide which information are useful for the community and I have uploaded the logos for all agencies. It is your decicion now. Make it a hole cohensive. Neuling 07:05, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
Images
Good morning Neuling! I took the liberty of updating the DMI and FIC pages to move the insignias into a gallery. I did that because the images were breaking the layout of the article and making it harder to read. By putting the images into a gallery, the flow of the article remains intact and people will still be able to see what branch uses which insignia.
In case you want to start using galleries, you can find the info on the Policy:Images page, but here's a quick how to:
1. Create a header that reads Agency name insignias.
2. Paste this code underneath your new header
<gallery> Image:filename.jpg|Descriptive caption of image. Image:filename.png|Descriptive caption of image. Image:filename.gif|Descriptive caption of image. </gallery>
3. Replace filename.jpg with your file name.
4. Press the Save Page button, and you're done!
You can also insert a gallery from the image based toolbar. Press the fourth button from the right side to have the editor insert a gallery tag for you.
Thanks, and keep up the good work with importing images!--Mbear 15:30, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
