Purpose?

I kind of feel that this might be a little pointless as an article. The concept of headhunting is far from unique to BattleTech. It in fact has been a fairly standard military practice for thousands of years. This article does not really reflect that, nor does it really do anything else useful in my opinion.--Dmon (talk) 12:04, 4 September 2019 (EDT)

I agree. Headhunting isn't something that is specific to BattleTech (the article even says as much), and the topic as such doesn't, imho, warrant an article here, as per Policy:Notability. Or did I miss something? Frabby (talk) 15:22, 4 September 2019 (EDT)
I've tried to give some battletech flavor to this article, can you review. Not sure though it is enough to save it.--Pserratv (talk) 19:39, 13 September 2019 (EDT)
Still not feeling it with this article, virtually every scrap of BT relevant information could be better served as part of a character article or the start of a battle article.--Dmon (talk) 07:22, 17 September 2019 (EDT)
As I was saying, this was me trying to make a page that by definition doesn't look right.--Pserratv (talk) 07:31, 17 September 2019 (EDT)
I disagree completely. This should probably be considered an (albeit extremely rare) BattleMech role, and kept as part of that. Also, as a user who didn't know much about Head Hunting in BattleTech, it is a very useful article that doesn't require one to know the steps the development of this role took beforehand. --Windchild (talk) 09:34, 5 February 2020 (EST)
Windchild, while I do value your opinion, I disagree with the argument you put forth. The term "Roles" for BattleMechs has a specific rules background; you cannot simply declare a given purpose a "role" in that sense. And beyond that rules definition of roles, the word - and by extension, this article - is just an opinion, and not a relevant fact of the BattleTech universe.
