BattleTechWiki Procedure This procedure page provides a step-by-step description of how to complete a task or a detailed explanation of a method of style employed on BattleTechWiki. Consider discussing potential changes on the talk page first. |
To quickly create a canon Support Vehicle article that matches the format in use with other canon Support Vehicles:
1. Open the new article.
2. Paste the following code into the edit field:
{{InfoBoxSupportVehicle | image = [[Image:*.***|191px]] | Name = | Manufacturer = | Use = | Tech Base = | Chassis Type (Size) = | Cost = | Introduced = | Mass = | Speed = | Top Speed = | Station Keeping Thrust = | Structural Integrity = | Power Plant = | Fuel (Type/Range) = | Armament = | Heat Sinks = | Armor = | Crew = | BV (1.0) = | BV (2.0) = }} ==Description== ==Equipment and Capacities== ==Cargo== ==Variants== ==References== <references /> [[Category:Support Vehicles]]
3. Delete the fields from image line from the code if you do not have a corresponding picture.
4. Replace the '???' from the other lines with the correct data.
5. Fill in the five sections (Description, Equipment and Capacities, Cargo, Variants, References) to the best of your capability. Added "Weapons and Equipment" instead of Equipment and Capacities if the support vehicle is not armed or meant for combat.
6. Click on the Show preview button and review your article for mistakes.
7. Press the Save page button.
8. Bask in the pride of your article, with our thanks.
