I just noticed this page is in dire need of cleanup.  Most of the page consists of model names provided as fluff in the TROs and their accompanying references.  i was wondering if I should just get rid of that list and leave the page as a description of jump jets, possibly with info about the game rules.  Additionally,  improved jump jets is a stub.  I was wondering if it is al right if I add them to this page as a category and turn the old page into a redirect.

:Leave the model list. You'll see that on every weapon and for plenty of equipment. I would also not merge IJJ here because that is a separate piece of equipment. I think these two articles treat JJs and IJJs as equipment mounted on 'Mechs, but this article fails to adequately address the concept of a jump jet; that is, a technology that enables 'Mechs to jump. Am I on the right track? --[[User:Scaletail|Scaletail]] 01:09, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

As a construction option, I was planning on adding Vehicular jump jets to this page in lieu of making a new page since they follow most of the rules of battlemech jump jets.  I was wondering if mentioning the new Hephaestus variant in TRO:Prototypes is a moratorium violation (I wasn't planning on editing the Hephaestus page until TRO:Prototypes leaves the moratorium period.  I was just thinking of mentioning the new variant along with the Kanga)

Cleanup and merge

I just noticed this page is in dire need of cleanup. Most of the page consists of model names provided as fluff in the TROs and their accompanying references. i was wondering if I should just get rid of that list and leave the page as a description of jump jets, possibly with info about the game rules. Additionally, improved jump jets is a stub. I was wondering if it is al right if I add them to this page as a category and turn the old page into a redirect. BirdofPrey 00:05, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

Leave the model list. You'll see that on every weapon and for plenty of equipment. I would also not merge IJJ here because that is a separate piece of equipment. I think these two articles treat JJs and IJJs as equipment mounted on 'Mechs, but this article fails to adequately address the concept of a jump jet; that is, a technology that enables 'Mechs to jump.

Vehicular Jump jets

As a construction option, I was planning on adding Vehicular jump jets to this page in lieu of making a new page since they follow most of the rules of battlemech jump jets. I was wondering if mentioning the new Hephaestus variant in TRO:Prototypes is a moratorium violation (I wasn't planning on editing the Hephaestus page until TRO:Prototypes leaves the moratorium period. I was just thinking of mentioning the new variant along with the Kanga) BirdofPrey 00:05, 12 July 2011 (UTC)

If you would need to cite a source that is under moratorium, then it is a violation of that policy, unless it falls under one of the exceptions. --Scaletail 01:09, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
