To quickly create a canon ProtoMech article that matches the format in use with other canon ProtoMechs:

1. Open the new article.

2. Paste the following code into the edit field:


{{InfoBoxProtoMech
|image=

|manufacturer=
|Tech Base=
|Introduced=
|model=
|class=
|mass=
|chassis=
|armor=
|engine=
|speed=

}}

8. Write a brief memo in the Summary field.

9. Press the Save page button.
