Line 54: :For what it's worth, if you have the time and the willpower to get the job done, I'm all for it. There are a ''lot'' of other one-off characters from novels and other (non-phonebook-listing) sourcebooks with their own articles.--[[User:Cache|Cache]] ([[User talk:Cache|talk]]) 16:38, 22 July 2021 (EDT) :For what it's worth, if you have the time and the willpower to get the job done, I'm all for it. There are a ''lot'' of other one-off characters from novels and other (non-phonebook-listing) sourcebooks with their own articles.--[[User:Cache|Cache]] ([[User talk:Cache|talk]]) 16:38, 22 July 2021 (EDT) − ::Agree. We're not afraid of very short or "stub" articles anymore. And you never know when a name might pop up again. [[User:Frabby|Frabby]] ([[User talk:Frabby|talk]]) 16:47, 22 July 2021 (EDT) − : I agree they aren't the most valuable articles going around, but they are pretty easy to write and make entirely complete, and I think it would be cool if we could get coverage of every canonical character for whom we at least have a full name and some data (there is likely a bit under 30k of these, excluding your unblooded Clan MechWarrior Bobs, Aunt Mays or Lieutenant Smiths without full names, which I don't track). It has some value from an RPG perspective I think, as well as just because it is available lore.[[User:HF22|HF22]] ([[User talk:HF22|talk]]) 19:10, 22 July 2021 (EDT) − ::It is worth creating articles for the purpose of crosslinking, too. If we have named people for a given military formation at a given point in time then that in and of itself is worth noting down. Major undertaking, but worth trying. [[User:Frabby|Frabby]] ([[User talk:Frabby|talk]]) 02:10, 23 July 2021 (EDT) − :::Good to know. Thanks. [[User:ClanWolverine101|ClanWolverine101]] ([[User talk:ClanWolverine101|talk]]) 22:08, 25 July 2021 (EDT) − − == Arkab Lgeions == − Hi! As you suggested, I've added a Notes section to the Arkab Legion page, adding back in the reference from the DC sourcebook along with explanatory text. I didn't provide external references for the real-world info, though; I'm not sure of the policy on external source links. Edit: I am apparently also bad at using the Talk feature... [[User:Wunjilau|Wunjilau]] ([[User talk:Wunjilau|talk]]) 09:42, 27 January 2022 (EDT) − : Thanks! Looks good to me now. --[[User:HF22|HF22]] ([[User talk:HF22|talk]]) 17:40, 27 January 2022 (EST) − − ==My User Page== − Why did you revert my User Page to a much older version? I have fixed it.--[[User:Talvin|Talvin]] ([[User talk:Talvin|talk]]) 09:13, 26 May 2022 (EDT) − : I didn't realize I did - Not sure how that happened! Sorry for the inconvenience. --[[User:HF22|HF22]] ([[User talk:HF22|talk]]) 09:42, 26 May 2022 (EDT) − ::Thing is, I am wondering if it was some weird glitch, because you reverted it to something that you can't even find unless you go *weeks* back in my history. Might want to take a look at whatever you tagged "Rollback" in an edit recently.--[[User:Talvin|Talvin]] ([[User talk:Talvin|talk]]) 10:30, 26 May 2022 (EDT) − ::: Yeah, must be something odd going on, since I have no idea how I could have even done it accidentally. I'll look into it, and if I can find what's happened, I'll report to Nic for further investigation. − ::::Every time I get involved in a Technical Writing/Documentation job, I end up finding some ''weird bug'' that has the Devs giving me the stink-eye and saying, "Of ''course'' it is ''you''." I once brought down a roughly half-million dollar supercomputer cluster like that while trying to document the user interface. I suspect I have been a little too smug about my very long (for me) run of no such here, and the Deities of Technology have decided to issue a caution.--[[User:Talvin|Talvin]] ([[User talk:Talvin|talk]]) 10:52, 26 May 2022 (EDT) − − == Hour of the Wolf Characters == − − [[User:Talvin/HotW Characters]], I just got done making sure all the Bloodnamed were added to the appropriate Bloodname pages. Thought you might find it useful as well. (Eventually it will go away, once there is far less red there.)--[[User:Talvin|Talvin]] ([[User talk:Talvin|talk]]) 20:37, 6 June 2022 (EDT) − : Thanks. I will start working through them at some point, so that should be helpful.--[[User:HF22|HF22]] ([[User talk:HF22|talk]]) 22:13, 6 June 2022 (EDT) − − == Articles that need to be renamed == − − The majority of articles that need to be renamed have a surname of Wolf (https://www.sarna.net/wiki/Category:Clan_Wolf_Characters?from=W). With the exception of Jaime, Joshua and Alaric, these articles only have the Wolf surname to disambiguate them from other Clan warrior articles that happen to share the same first name, sometimes even the same Clan and phenotype. − − As per https://www.sarna.net/wiki/Policy:Article_Naming#Clan_Characters, Clan character article titles have a pretty well defined disambiguation process that does not include adding a non canon surname. − − For articles with Wolf surnames that are properly disambiguated per above policy, the parent article with no surname may also need to be properly disambiguated as well. − − * An example of an article that has a non canon surname attached would be [[Zasser Wolf]]. − * Examples of articles with no surname that needs to be properly disambiguated [[Zasser]] and [[Zasser (Clan Wolf)]] − − All three articles are for Clan Wolf warriors that served at roughly the same time, but are not the same character. − − * First one should have article title of "Zasser (279th Battle)" − * Second one should have article title of "Zasser (aerospace pilot)" − * Third one should have article title of "Zasser (3rd Battle)" − − There are of course other articles with the Wolf surname that need to be retitled, Zasser was just picked out as an example of what needs to be changed. Due to the volume of articles impacted, it will be challenging to come up with a definitive list of impacted articles, and what their names should be changed to. − − As an aside, I wouldn't be surprised if the same problem crops up when the Jade Falcon Sourcebook is mined for data. − − [[Special:Contributions/75.23.228.139|75.23.228.139]] 12:09, 31 August 2022 (EDT) − − : Noted. I'll work through them on the weekend.--[[User:HF22|HF22]] ([[User talk:HF22|talk]]) 05:50, 1 September 2022 (EDT) − : Ok, all the Wolf Surnamed ones are done now.--[[User:HF22|HF22]] ([[User talk:HF22|talk]]) 07:36, 2 September 2022 (EDT) − − == DA Governors == − − Hey HF22, − − Just a quick one as I am in work, just wanted to give you a heads up to be extra careful doing the DA governors as the sources sometimes get the governor and legate switched.--[[User:Dmon|Dmon]] ([[User talk:Dmon|talk]]) 08:13, 28 February 2023 (EST) − − : Noted. I think I have most of the references to them on hand and indexed, so I should be able to catch where there is confusion, but I'll keep an extra eye out for it.--[[User:HF22|HF22]] ([[User talk:HF22|talk]]) 03:26, 1 March 2023 (EST) − − ::All good, It has been on my to do list for some time to compare the two primary sources but it kept slipping down the list. I think I have done all the DA governors that show up in the novels and later sourcebooks but I have not done the legates at all.--[[User:Dmon|Dmon]] ([[User talk:Dmon|talk]]) 07:08, 1 March 2023 (EST) − − == Award == − Thank you for your willingness to always help. I couldn't have contributed nearly as much with the wiki without your assistance. [[File:DA.jpg|Direction Appreciated Award, 1st ribbon]] --[[User:Csdavis715|Csdavis715]] ([[User talk:Csdavis715|talk]]) 22:00, 30 June 2023 (EDT) − − : Oh wow, thanks man, I appreciate the kind words! --[[User:HF22|HF22]] ([[User talk:HF22|talk]]) 22:38, 30 June 2023 (EDT) − − == Award == − From one minor character page author to another, I greatly appreciate your assistance with deleting that junk page that I inadvertently created! You absolutely earned this for helping a new user fix his mess and learn more about the way the site works :) [[File:AA.jpg|Assistance Appreciated Award, 1st ribbon]] --[[User:Fish|Fish]] ([[User talk:Fish|talk]]) 1:03, 6 November (PST)
