| − | ==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. [[User:Frabby|Frabby]] 09:09, 14 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. --[[User:Mbear|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. --[[User:Mbear|Mbear]] 22:09, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

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.

| − | == 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
| |
| − | | |
| − | <pre>
| |
| − | <gallery>
| |
| − | Image:filename.jpg|Descriptive caption of image.
| |
| − | Image:filename.png|Descriptive caption of image.
| |
| − | Image:filename.gif|Descriptive caption of image.
| |
| − | </gallery>
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | | |
| − | 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.

| |
| − | | |
| − | I do realize that the BattleTech font often appears to be all capitals, but that is not the style we use here on BTW.

| − | Hi Neuling, I like some of the improvements to the article. However, i think that listing Ice Hellion's Clutters with the Galaxy in beginning of the article is un-necessary since there are already wiki-links through Galaxy wiki-links, it just makes the page more clustered. I'm uncertain listing all the naval assets on the top is good idea either. I listed them as they appeared in the campaign, that should enough without being too cluttering. -- [[User:Wrangler|Wrangler]] 19:04, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

But there is one unit - Vintain's Vigilantes - which you removed but for which you did not (yet) create an article. I even doubt there is enough information on that particular unit to warrant their own article. I suppose you mixed them up with [[Vinson's Vigilantes]]?

| |
| − | | |
| − | Neuling, I just looked at your [[Clan Territory Wars]] page. Looks incredible! So much information.
| |
| − | And thanks for using tables to only present table data. I know you're not really comfortable doing that, but you're doing good work by listing the information as a list, and using the tables to present stuff that should be in tables. (I'm not really saying this well. What I'm trying to say is you're using the tables and lists appropriately, and if I could get the people in my office to do the same thing I'd be happy!)
| |
| − | | |
| − | One thing though: You're using "loose" instead of "lose". The first means not tight or not restrained, and the second means not victorious. (Don't feel badly though, there are a lot of English speakers who mess this up as well.)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Some examples that may help:
| |
| − | Loose as in "to unleash":
| |
| − | *"Once Wolf's Dragoons turned loose their firepower, the ''Ryuken'' were bound to lose the conflict on Misery."
| |
| − | *"The Smoke Jaguars' loosed the firepower of the ''Sabre Cat'' on Turtle Bay. This was the first step to their annihilation."
| |
| − | | |
| − | Loose as in "to not restrain":
| |
| − | *"The FRR loosened the restrictions placed on mercenaries in 3050, after the Clan invasion."
| |
| − | | |
| − | Like I said, it's a minor thing, but it's a pet peeve of mine. And if you're going to learn English by using the wiki, you may as well learn the correct words, right?

Cyc already pointed out that they need to be renamed (everybody and his dog has an Alpha Regiment, so that name is hardly distinctive) but I'd go one step further and suggest merging them into a single article to cover the entire merc unit. There is no reason to break it down into its regiments (or battalions, companies, or lances, for that matter). [[User:Frabby|Frabby]] 12:06, 11 July 2010 (UTC)

Each regiment in the larger units has its own history, organization, and specializations.

I don't think its a good idea. There was reason why i had put history section in place then empty wars that unit may or may not fought in if had existed at the time. If you looked up the Ghost, you'd noticed 10th Ghost didn't exist in the Fourth Succession War. I don't think its good idea putting conflict entries into a unit's history. -- [[User:Wrangler|Wrangler]] 19:51, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

| |
| − | Hello, as per [[BattleTechWiki:Project Military Commands]], due to large volume of similarly named Clan units, Clan unit articles need the Clan name in brackets on the end. The two articles you've created as well as the military overviews and events generally don't follow this and create redlinks for articles that BTW has had for awhile. When creating articles it always pays to search and check redlinks in case something is spelt differently or is rendered differently. [[User:Cyc|Cyc]] 13:12, 21 August 2010 (UTC)

Your not only person editing on Sarna. Take care -- [[User:Wrangler|Wrangler]] 13:11, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
| |
| − | ::Hello Neuling, As for better format, i think having "history" as section will have to do. You have to remember, each regiment/battalion/company in Battletech universe has unique histories, they didn't all do same thing or fought same wars. ALSO, there alot missing information on alot of house/merc units because no one wrote anything about it in canon. Mass-editting you been doesn't work, if it did, sarna be done along time ago in my humble opinion. I would recommend look for units you have information on, just work on ONE unit at a time. Just put information you have on it into the article. '''Example:''' You doing something for a 1st Army of Word of Blake (I made this up), they only fought in Invasion of Terra, then you just write under the history section a new sub-section called Invasion of Terra. All you add, until you would find more. I work by just add sub-sections when information is FOUND. Do add more when i find more. There are Lyran units for example that never fought Operation Revival (the Clan Invasion) or Operation Bulldog. Don't add more sub-sections to histories of the units, let someone who going work on it do it. -- [[User:Wrangler|Wrangler]] 13:49, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

When you put a gallery in place on a page, could you please include captions for the images? If you look at the [[Task_Force_Serpent#Smoke_Jaguar_BattleForce_Defence_Forces]] images, the lack of any text on them is really confusing. I realize I can sit down and puzzle out the unit name from the file name, but that's a pain if I want to see the units quickly. Thanks!--[[User:Mbear|Mbear]] 19:47, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

| |
| − | ;CCAF Forces:Kincade’s Rangers
| |
| − | ;Outcome:The numbers count for the invaders but the Rangers had some training cycles with the Death Commandos. The used every possible tactic to soften the Canopian forces up. The Rangers went in the underground.
| |
| − | ;Source:Brush War p. 54
| |
| − | | |
| − | It would read more like this:
| |
| − | | |
| − | On [[Repulse]] the Taskforce Duo (consisting of the [[2nd Canopian Light Horse]], [[2nd Canopian Cuirassiers]], and [[2nd Canopian Fusiliers]]) faced the [[CCAF]]'s [[Kincaid's Rangers]]. Though outnumbering the Rangers three to one, the Rangers had trained alongside the [[Death Commando]]s and used every possible tactic to soften up the invading Canopian forces. They then went underground to continue their resistance.<ref>''Historical: Brush Wars'', p. 54</ref>

| |
| − | Hi Neuling, there appears to be a problem. Some of the images you uploaded, specially in the maps are from non-canon sources. Columbus Cartographic Services was done by someone who became a Battletech freelancer, but his stuff before that wasn't declared canon. This going cause us problems with folks looking for canon info. I'm going need put non-canon labels on those. Sorry -- [[User:Wrangler|Wrangler]] 02:42, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

| − | == BTW is not an image repository ==
| |
| − | :''was: "CBT Companion images"''
| |
| − | There are a few issues regarding your recent upload of images from ''[[Classic BattleTech Companion]]'', per [[Policy:Images]]. First, Guideline #2 states that "BTW is not an image repository". Images are to illustrate existing articles. BTW is not and should not be a place to store copyrighted imagery.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Second, when you upload images (per Guideline #5), you ''must'' include a page number. I did not see page numbers in the description of any of the pictures I viewed.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Finally, the images are not utilized in any articles, which Guideline #2 states. That fact that a copyrighted image is not used in any way could call the "fair use" argument into question and potentially places this website in legal jeopardy.

| − | | |
| − | "In the variants section, list the whole designation again. For example, if the HCT-3F Hatchetman is the primary article, in the variant section, start off each entry from the hyphen, followed by a space, another hyphen and one more space. For example:

As someone with over 3,000 edits on BTW and almost 12 months, I'd expect you'd be rather familiar with the [[Policy:Notability|Notability]] policy by now, but if you need it to be explained to you in finer detail, please ask [[User:Frabby|Frabby]], who is also a native German speaker.

Weapons have traditionally been using the Class of Weapon standard because, with the possible exception of the LB-X (rumored LuBalin-eXperimental in TR2750) all that we have is the Class in the BattleTech Name of the weapon. I would be the first one to do proper names of Battlemech Weapons, but when you go down to the Manufacturer & Model Level that is more the RPG than BattleTech. With Infantry Weapons, the case is the Opposite, you have a Class leader Generic weapon that representative of a broad range of weapons that are produced on all or most of the inhabited worlds in the BTU, then you have the Brands of Weapons that each manufacturer that has significance of use & commonality. Tech Manual tracked each of these with a Parenthetical Proper Name. Even in the Case of the Nambu Type 4 and the Nambu Type 14, the Nambu refers to the designer of the original weapon rather than a general class of weapon and would be considered a Proper Name rather than the Class.--[[User:PerkinsC|Cameron]] 21:29, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

Infantry Weapons are different, the Classes are loose, and based on is it a Machine Gun, a Rifle, A Sub-Machine Gun, a Machine Pistol, an Auto-Pistol, A Pistol, etc. Each particular Weapon with a proper name has different Stats on the RPG Level which translate to different BattleTech Stats.

| − | Hello Mbear, i will think about it to include the css formating in my side. And about the tables. I will include tables in articles which are created by me and when I think it looks better. I understand that by larger pages it could increase the bandwitch a little bit. Tables are also a personal taste. The user like it or not. I will always listen to the other users and will think about their arguments. But I reserve the freedom to me to act on creation and will find a solution when problems arise by cooperative works. Sometimes my behavior is unsual, but I have put a lot of information in articles and categories which were orphans before. Neuling 14:51, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

| − | :OK, I want to be clear: I understand your position. I just have a problem with it when you start changing pages to suit your preference without making any effort to build consensus or involve other users, which is what I think you've been doing (although I could be mistaken about that).
| |
| − | :A related issue is that I don't know where we would have a discussion about some of these topics. The Chatterweb hasn't been updated recently and I don't know if it covers the topics we're talking about here anyway. Anyway, good luck and happy editing.--[[User:Mbear|Mbear]] 15:24, 2 March 2011 (UTC)

| − | Neuling - 90% of the characters on your "to-do" list are so minor that writing a quality article about them is not feasible. Please reconsider giving each of them their own article. Thanks. [[User:ClanWolverine101|ClanWolverine101]] 16:11, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

| − | Hey Neuling. Just wanted to let you know something about your tables (and no, I'm not going to give you a hard time about using them. {{Emoticon| :) }} ) Currently you're using a standard table cell with a colspan attribute and special formatting, like this:
| |
| − | | |
| − | ! colspan="3" style="border-bottom:2px solid black"|Battlemech TO&E
| |
| − | | |
| − | You can actually get the same effect by using this:
| |
| − | | |
| − | |+ Battlemech TO&E
| |
| | | | |
| − | One advantage to this is you don't have to remember to change the colspan value if your table grows. It will also save you a few keystrokes.--[[User:Mbear|Mbear]] 16:53, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
