Clan military structure article[edit]

We already have the article Clan military structure providing an overview. It makes more sense, imho, to group all articles on military formations into one article to better compare and relate them to each other. I therefore suggest this article be turned into a redirect.

It was on the wanted page, so it took the opportunity to put it in. My plan is to do one for every formation element in the Clan military and then link the Clan military structure article to those. It will still be the "father" of these more specific articles but will allow future elaboration Clan unit formations and a more uniform layout. Those where just my thoughts.

Instead of creating lots of small articles, I'd bolster the main article to give a comprehensive overview and then redirect to it.
Will you also create [Point Commander], [Star Commander] etc. articles? --Detlef 03:12, 30 April 2009 (PDT)
Like I said it was done because it was on Wanted Pages, I can start bolstering the Clan military structure article and yes I can do the rank articles. Cheers --FellBlade 07:44, 30 April 2009 (PDT)
I was ironic with the rank-articles. ;-) Nevermind, go ahead and give your best. :-) --Detlef 08:50, 30 April 2009 (PDT)
I don't know who was red-linking to this article, but Star and Point already redirect to the Dictionary. I think these articles can just be redirected there. --Scaletail 13:40, 30 April 2009 (PDT)
Alrighty i guess il just leave it as is. FellBlade 14:22, 30 April 2009 (PDT)

Symbol?[edit]

I cannot provide a source for this, but I was under the impression that the Clan symbol for a star would be the Cameron Star. The star depicted in this article looks like a bog standard military unit designation symbol. What source claims this is the symbol used by the Clans? Frabby 01:04, 30 April 2009 (PDT)

The symbol is from the "warfare symbology" download on www.classicbattletech.com FellBlade 02:04, 30 April 2009 (PDT)
