BattleTechWiki:Project Planets

Project: Planets This project aims to foster better articles for planetary (and other relevant) systems on BattleTechWiki. This page and its subpages contain suggestions on formatting and layout of articles, which can be discussed on the project's various talk pages. Project: Planets is in the midst of a major overhaul to all the (approximately 2,500) planet articles. Each article is being 'upgraded' in a manner intended a) to present planets within the context of star systems, b) highlight the text information provided for each planet within the canon and c) ensure the factual nature of the information presented. This effort is anticipated to require a large number of dedicated and task-driven team members or a small number of team members working over years. While we intend to strike out with whom ever provides us with their time and initiative, we hope to enjoy the assistance of numbers.
