− | Metallica and MechWarrior; two of my favorite things. Also, I hate it when people call "Modern Warfare 3" MW3. That is MechWarrior 3, stupids. Ah, the unenlightened...

− | : That would be pretty much any article I go near :-p. On a serious note welcome to the wiki man. Nice to see another metalhead. Also as a little tip when your editing on a a talk page be sure to use the signiture button on the tool bar to sign your comments. --[[User:Dmon|Dmon]] ([[User talk:Dmon|talk]]) 19:14, 19 June 2013 (PDT)

− | ==Hy==
| + | Hi BobTheZombie, |
− | Hey, great start on sarna and i appriciate your edits on [[Emma Centrella]], now i have a feeling to give you your first [[File:SubAdd.jpg|Substantial Addition Award, 1st ribbon]] award, keep up your good work, when its ok i install the awards board on your user page.--[[User:Doneve|Doneve]] ([[User talk:Doneve|talk]]) 15:19, 19 June 2013 (PDT)

− | :I'm only about halfway done with the page, so I'll try to finish it later today. Thanks for the recognition, too! [[User:BobTheZombie|BobTheZombie]] ([[User talk:BobTheZombie|talk]]) 16:44, 19 June 2013 (PDT)
| + | Do you know how the system maps are generated? All those images don't have a category and this makes the [https://www.sarna.net/wiki/Special:UncategorizedFiles Uncategorized files] not very useful as from the first 1000 thousand maybe 95% images as these ones. And I do not want to put them in a category as this might affect the "program" that generates them. Do you know who can help? Maybe when the image is generated it can be put in a category like "System Images". I'm asking more people, but do you have any idea?--[[User:Pserratv|Pserratv]] ([[User talk:Pserratv|talk]]) 10:40, 10 March 2021 (EST) |

− | ==Operation MAILED FIST== | + | == Dates in title articles == |
− | Can you please stop reverting MAILED FIST to lower case - NATO military options have the name capitalised (i.e. Operation DESERT FOX) and the writers/line developers have indicated that this is the format they intend to use for BattleTech, which is why the more recent publications have shifted to full capitals. Ta. [[User:BrokenMnemonic|BrokenMnemonic]] ([[User talk:BrokenMnemonic|talk]]) 11:31, 24 June 2013 (PDT)

| | | |
− | :Should [[Operation Mailed Fist]] be edited within the [[Reunification War]] page to the capital letter form of MAILED FIST in order to form to standard military ops and then have all of the pages re-edited to link to the new capital form of the page? [[User:DerangedShadow|DerangedShadow]] ([[User talk:DerangedShadow|talk]]) 12:08, 24 June 2013 (PDT)
| + | Hey Bob, |
| | | |
− | ::Oh, sorry, I thought I was doing something right, because there was another page with things in caps, and they wanted it changed; I noticed the trend and tried to help. Good thing I didn't get that far... should I revert those that I changed back then? [[User:BobTheZombie|BobTheZombie]] ([[User talk:BobTheZombie|talk]]) 14:28, 24 June 2013 (PDT)
| + | I saw you adding wikilinks into the dates in title articles. |
| | | |
− | ::Then there is also an issue with "Taskforce MAILED FIST"; I've seen it both ways on different pages. [[User:BobTheZombie|BobTheZombie]] ([[User talk:BobTheZombie|talk]]) 14:44, 24 June 2013 (PDT)
| + | the way the wikilinks have been done has actually been done on purpose. It just appears a little messed up in articles where we do not have full lines of succession. |
| | | |
− | :::All-caps spelling for operations has only crept up relatively recently; older BattleTech books didn't do this. While there is obviously a new standard here that we should adhere to, whenever an older canonical source spelled an operation out with only the starting letter capitalized then that, too, is a correct spelling. Since Sarna.net BTW is case sensitive, I'd say the article name about a given operation should spell it in all caps but a redirect should be installed from "normal" spelling for older material where the op was spelled normally. [[User:Frabby|Frabby]] ([[User talk:Frabby|talk]]) 02:12, 28 June 2013 (PDT)
| + | Ideally a chart would look like this, with no date being "double-linked". |
| + | * Founder [[3030]] - [[3040]] |
| + | * 2nd Leader 3040 - [[3050]] |
| + | * 3rd Leader 3050 - [[3060]] |
| + | * 4th Leader 3060 - [[3070]] |
| + | * 5th Leader 3070 - [[3080]] |
| + | * Last Leader 3080 - [[3090]] |

− | ::::Well, I don't know how to add redirects, sooo... could someone do it themselves or show me how to? [[User:BobTheZombie|BobTheZombie]] ([[User talk:BobTheZombie|talk]]) 09:00, 28 June 2013 (PDT)
| + | Hope this makes sense.--[[User:Dmon|Dmon]] ([[User talk:Dmon|talk]]) 16:02, 21 February 2022 (EST) |
− | :::::I set up a redirect for [[Operation Mailed Fist]].--[[User:Doneve|Doneve]] ([[User talk:Doneve|talk]]) 09:02, 28 June 2013 (PDT)
| |
− | ::::::The [[Task Force MAILED FIST]] version still doesn't link to anything. Should it have its own page? [[User:BobTheZombie|BobTheZombie]] ([[User talk:BobTheZombie|talk]]) 09:06, 28 June 2013 (PDT)
| |
− | :::::::Yep you are right.--[[User:Doneve|Doneve]] ([[User talk:Doneve|talk]]) 09:15, 28 June 2013 (PDT)
| |
− | ::::::::A redirect page gets the content <nowiki>#REDIRECT[[target page name]]</nowiki>, which results in a call to that page being moved to the other page indicated. You can even sort a redirect page into categories separately from the main page, if you think you need to do that. [[User:Frabby|Frabby]] ([[User talk:Frabby|talk]]) 09:45, 28 June 2013 (PDT)
| |
− | :::::::::Oops, I meant [[Operation MAILED FIST]] right up there about it having it's own page, not ''Taskforce'' Mailed Fist. Sorry, it's hard to think when you are hungry. [[User:BobTheZombie|BobTheZombie]] ([[User talk:BobTheZombie|talk]]) 09:56, 28 June 2013 (PDT)
| |
− | ::::::::::Task Force MAILED FIST and Operation MAILED FIST don't have entries yet because I haven't written them yet, but they're on my list of things to do in the immediate future, when I've finished updating/creating the regiment and corps level articles. Although I should get the minor character articles done too... [[User:BrokenMnemonic|BrokenMnemonic]] ([[User talk:BrokenMnemonic|talk]]) 12:58, 28 June 2013 (PDT)
| |
− | :::::::::::If I may - I'm personally against the ALL CAPS naming on Operations, simply because its obnoxious. I realize the recent books have been using it, but those are in-universe reports, not wiki articles. [[User:ClanWolverine101|ClanWolverine101]] ([[User talk:ClanWolverine101|talk]]) 23:03, 28 June 2013 (PDT)
| |
− | ::::::::::::To my eyes, the all caps format is actually easier and cleaner to read - but then I've been dealing with military operations in real life for almost 20 years now, so I'm used to seeing it. We follow BTech convention in other areas, such as italicizing certain equipment names, and this is much the same for me.

− | ==Planet Infobox==
| + | :Ah, that does, I was sprinting through, so thanks for catching me. I thought it was a more kosher to have redundant links in lists than in the article, but I'll watch a little closer when I'm messing with that {{emoticon|:)}} -[[User:BobTheZombie|BobTheZombie]] ([[User talk:BobTheZombie|talk]]) 16:25, 21 February 2022 (EST) |
− | I notice you added some empty infoboxes to [[Deshler]] and [[Harpster]], the second is you use the false template, please take a look on [[Luthien]] as example, we use a planet and star styem infobox, oh and i delete the infoboxe's on both pages, if you have canon sources bring this up whas cool, but when its empty with no references i do what i do, fell free to talk.--[[User:Doneve|Doneve]] ([[User talk:Doneve|talk]]) 20:48, 30 June 2013 (PDT)
