Welcome from me as well, and thanks for your contributions! I have taken the liberty to remove the Stub tag from articles that I think are done for now, and have also removed the Mercenary category tag from some. Please note that the Mercenary category is for mercenary units, and not for general items having to do with the mercenary business (hence removed from Mercenary's Star and Hiring hall).

BattleTech Compendium

Hello, Cyr. This is only a discussion; please don't feel like I'm directing you. I was thinking this morning, as I created List of Products (By Year), that we should call the article BattleTech Compendium, rather than the longer form BattleTech Compendium: Rules of Warfare. My reasoning comes from the fact that the BattleTech Compendium was the only product with that title and that Rules of Warfare is a sub-title, rather than the title within a series (like Jihad Hot Spots: 3072, where 3072 is the product title within the Jihad Hot Spots series). While you're right that the full title is BattleTech Compendium: Rules of Warfare, enough people refer to it simply as BattleTech Compendium and that if they type only that, they might miss out on the actual article. Actually, my argument is admittedly weak, since a redirect would solve that problem, but it just seems to me that the shorter, common form is easier. What say you? --Revanche ^{(talk|contribs)} 19:03, 3 July 2008 (CDT)
