So what is the policy on in-universe versus out-of-universe on these role pages. Are we free to add out-of-universe game use info since the roles are defined for the game, and hence out of universe? --[[User:Neufeld|Neufeld]] 23:38, 18 March 2010 (UTC) | So what is the policy on in-universe versus out-of-universe on these role pages.

- No, not really. In reality, we're re-wording/re-styling/re-formatting official text, so that we're not outright plagerizing. However, I would take your interest in the subject of 'outside' experience and plug my interest in creating essays regarding your experiences. You'll notice, these are all 'editorials' regarding aspects of the BattleTech domain from one person's perspective and I often refer to them later, as references in their own rights.
