User:Pserratv

I'm a fan since 1990 aprox, and thanks to internet I'll try to be up to date with my hobby.

My intentions are to add all information I do have on spanish publications on Battletech. And help on other topics if I can.

As a player we are running with my friends a Mercenary unit (the Oktober Guard) now fighting on 3046 against pirates, and clock moving to Clan Invasion arrival.

I'm also very active in the spanish forum (not official) [1] where I've even designed Mechwarrior scenario packs (a sort of BattleTech Dossiers, like BattleTech Dossiers: Lamenkov's Liability). The page is full of Spanish fans, our discussions and a bit of everything, even fan free products.

My List of Wiki Projects

Completed Old ones

Spanish Magazines

I'm trying to add all Spanish magazines to our wiki. At this moment I've added all the ones I do know about. Completed with Covers at this moment:

Always on-going.

Global Magazines

Here I'm trying to add magazines on other markets that I do find and that do not yet exist in the wiki

Always on-going.

Spanish Novels

Phase 1

Here I want to add all the Battletech novels translated to Spanish.

List of BattleTech print novels in spanish

Completed

Phase 2

I do not own most of the Spanish novels, indeed only the first eight, for which I'll try to add also information that spanish translators might have created and also any possible translation error that I know of thanks to having read also the novels in english.

Work is on-going recovering all this information

Miscellaneous

This is add-hoc ideas I'll try to do. I'll add them here while I think on them. Wishes for 2019 are:

Re-Reading the books

I'm re-reading the books just trying to add minor units/characters that I do found along the way. It is going to be an enjoyable task.

On-Going.

Mercenary units

Phase 1

I'm trying to build articles on the minor periphery mercenary units like Cavanaugh's Cavalry and then then Arms of Thor, the Larsen's Loners, the Nelson's Longbows and for sure other minor ones that I'll find. Just finished these four + a few minor ones. Now I want to review the Field Manuals on Periphery to tackle those mercenary units not described in wiki. Outworlds Alliance gave me 3 happy surprises yesterday... more to come I hope. I keep going with the minor units...
This is by itself a fascinating world, though usually there isn't much information in them, I do like this :)

Always On-Going

Phase 2

Ensure all mercenary units follow correct template, with sections with no information as Unknown. Among things to do: the list of commanding officers correctly presented. Somehow tackle other officers in there.

  • Superseded by other points linke Unit standarization. No longer "open". ==> "Completed"

I'm going Solaris

I intend to review all Solaris books and Battlecorps information in order to compile it and enhance that section of the wiki!! Lets Solaris for the coming weeks :) Two big mini-projects inside this one I intend to do:

Erik Gray and the SHDL --> Completed
Types of matches, home leagues... --> Always in progress

Phase 5

Review small histories and some "minor" RPG books that can add additional information (minor are in terms of Solaris VII relevance). Like:

==> Add article on the Solaris Gaming Commission‏‎

In progress. Any help identifying Solaris Histories that can be reviewed would be welcomed.

Project Minor Characters

Category Link: Category:Minor Characters

Tag all images to category artist (this to be done from start again, not done yet)

Project Unit Command officers

List of Category:Military Commands.

Phase 1: Table Creation

Go through the unit commands and ensure they have the officers table, even when no officer is known.

Completed

Phase 2: Commanders

Create / Expand articles on commanders based on their unit. Ensure alignment in Uses. Not commanding officers should be added under a sub-level title Other Officers, while comments on the unit should be under a Notes sub-level.

--> Completed

Phase 3: The very Complex Phase

This would mean digging all units and creating its commanding officers (and any officer / warrior that can be named in the unit article and then dig their name in the wiki to see if he commanded another unit, fought in an important battle or whatever we can find just with internal wiki digging.

In the future, mine-diffing the books themselves to check if Militia are named enough to grant an article for them.
