Broken Link Images

Hiya, you removed a number of broken (i.e., non-existant, redlink) image links from TCI Model Sets and BattleTech boxed set, among others. Normally, I would agree with that but in these two cases the redlinks were placeholders for images that absolutely need to be found and uploaded eventually. For this reason, I'd like to revert your edits but wanted to to raise the issue with you here first. Frabby (talk) 13:03, 6 January 2022 (EST)

Errors vs. requests. I thought about that after I'd removed them, so I put the articles in my queue to research. I may have some of those kits. I'll undo the edits myself later, if you don't beat me to it. Thanks for the note.--Cache (talk) 16:37, 6 January 2022 (EST)
Cheers mate! Would be great if you can fill in the blanks. Frabby (talk) 16:49, 7 January 2022 (EST)

RE: References

Thank you! I was just about to send you a message asking where to look up how to properly format those, the way I was doing it was clogging up the references at the bottom of the page ridiculously. Appreciate your help! Mage (talk) 17:33, 10 January 2022 (EST)

Hey! It's hard to tell from the book, I legitimately had to research each of the artists listed and hers, out of all of them, is the style most like that of the particular portraits I've uploaded. Mage (talk) 17:08, 6 February 2022 (EST)

Images-as-references test case

Discord go boom, major outage. When you have a chance, discussing practical concerns at Talk:Bull Shark.

Images by Artists/Unknown

Okay, Cache, got the message. I'm still not used to the new template used for image references. I will be sure to leave it blank next time. -- Wrangler (talk) 17:25, 26 March 2022 (EDT)

Filename breaking things?

File:LAAF + JF 3059.png and File:LAAF + JF 3067.png Are the filenames the reason the images don't show up for me?--Talvin (talk) 21:35, 10 April 2022 (EDT)

That appears to have been the problem. Fixed.--Cache (talk) 00:06, 11 April 2022 (EDT)

Citations on 'See also' sections

Just saw the Royal Divisions page today. Given that links in that section generally go to other articles and pages in the wiki, isn't requesting citations on those links a bit of overkill? (I did add citations on that note which seemed to concern you the most, since the Talon article itself is rather vague on things like the issue of Royal and Regular Army usage. I might do some work on that one tomorrow, too tired right now.) Echo Mirage (talk) 12:26, 21 May 2022 (EDT)

No, it is not overkill. For example, when I follow the link to the MAD-1R and MAD-2R, I see nothing in the Marauder article that states those variants were exclusive to the Royals. When I follow-up with the references on the Marauder article, I still see nothing that states those variants were exclusive to the Royals. I did not bother wasting my limited time tracking down the references on the others. 1) The user should not have to run down links to find references. They should be provided within the article. 2) You need to vet your information. Judging by the lack of references, you are making assumptions based on memory. That is bad for the reputation of this wiki. Put down hard facts only--WITH SPECIFIC REFERENCES. NO ASSUMPTIONS.--Cache (talk) 17:58, 21 May 2022 (EDT)
Ahem.
