Equipment Brands

We need to decide how we are going to handle how equipment models are listed. Certain Pages such as Fusion Engine have more space devoted to the specific models of fusion engine than is devoted to what fusion engine is. We have already begun splitting models off from the Jump jet page and I suggest we do the same with all the other pages. We need to figure out how we want to handle it the two options I see right now are:

1. Make one page for each brand and separate it into sections for each type of equipment (eg. Pitban with a section on jump jets and a section on engines)
2. Make separate pages for each type of equipment in a brand (eg. Pitban (Jump Jets) and Pitban (Fusion Engines))

I vote option 1 --BirdofPrey 23:15, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Hm i think, when we put all infos in one Pitban page the page becomes to long, i provide to seperate the page by Pitban (Jump Jets) and Pitban (Fusion Engines), in the Pitban Fusion Engine page we must seperate XL, XXL models.--Doneve 23:20, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Technology, Weapons and equipment categories

I am wondering if we want technology to contain every piece of equipment for completeness or if we should just use it for general technology pages (eg. Fusion Engine, Autocannons, ECM Suite) and move specific pieces of equipment (eg. AC/5, AC,10, Guardian ECM, Angel ECM, ect.)into the weapons and equipment categories. --BirdofPrey 23:15, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

Template

I saw your conversation over on [BattleTechWiki:Administrators#New_project_for_BT_technology]]. From what I see on the template, it is working. Is there something you'd like me to check?--Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 00:06, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

For one, it's shows an error message on the project page about how it belongs in the talk pages. Second since it didn't copy the 'how to use this template' stuff, I am concerned some code didn't come with. Also how do I add an icon to it like the others have?--BirdofPrey 00:11, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

The Template works, but why BirdofPrey removed the tr=new parameter?.--Doneve 00:12, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

That's the example so people know what to type place the banner on other pages.--BirdofPrey 00:23, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
