Isoroku Kurita

Isoroku Kurita is up. I just love Robert Charette's minor characters. :P ClanWolverine101 04:15, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

Dragoons Images

Hy, have you any idea where we can found, images from Dechan Fraser and Jenette Rand, i search in all my sources and my litte databas...but grml.--Doneve 00:19, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

No, I don't think so. In the novel Wolf Pack, there is a picture of Fraser talking to Takashi Kurita, but its from behind. :( ClanWolverine101 00:51, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
  • Hmm, ok i look what i do can to bring it on top.--Doneve 00:56, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Vasily Cherenkoff

Vasily Cherenkoff is up. Yes, another Kuritan Warlord jerk. Everyone who worked for Takashi Kurita was an ass-hole. It was essentially a job requirement. :P ClanWolverine101 05:27, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

The Planet Thomas

The planet Thomas has been posted. Apparently, its a small, Liao world that keeps getting left off the maps. Feel free to discuss this on the Talk:Thomas page. ClanWolverine101 20:48, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Barber's Marauder IIs

Barber's Marauder IIs is up. I'm actually quite proud of this one, as I used all the current templates. I managed to find mention of them in a fairly long list of works. Also : The idea a full battalion of 100 ton Marauder IIs jumping up and down chasing somebody always amused me. Like Jurassic Park. :P ClanWolverine101 03:58, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Selvin Kelswa III

Selvin Kelswa III is up, for anyone who is interested. ClanWolverine101 05:30, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Tamar Jagers

Tamar Jagers is up. These guys have a weird history, in that they were there and then they weren't. Feel free to hit their "Discussion" page. ClanWolverine101 18:25, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Infantry

Hello my friend,

please can you help me to develope a infobox with following content:

Notable Unit: DEST Heavy Response Platoon Tech Base (Rating): Inner Sphere (E/X-E-E) Transport Weight: 4 tons Equipment: Primary Weapon: Secondary Weapon: Armor: Battle Value: 95 Notes: Platoon Type (Specialty): Ground MP: Jump MP: Platoon Size (Squad/Platoon): Armor Divisor: To-Hit Modifier (Range in Hexes): Maximum Weapon Damage (# of Troopers):

tnx

I forget... I will support your work with the updating of all military units. I will concentrate on the tactic and other small types.Neuling 21:32, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Neuling - I appreciate it. I like the idea of an Infantry infobox, but its probably outside of my expertise. ClanWolverine101 21:40, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
I Jump in, I create the needed Infantry Infobox, on next day, i hope you guys enjoy it.--Doneve 21:48, 18 January 2011 (UTC)
Okidoky, i added a Infantry Units Infobox example, any thoughts.--Doneve 20:42, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Richard Steiner II

Richard Steiner II is up. Yeah, another jerk. It seems to be a thing with me. :) Anyway, I was proud of the research I did on this one, though I used quite a few "red links" (some of which are now on my to-do list). Still, I think the overall quality was good. ClanWolverine101 05:08, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Tamar Pact

Tamar Pact is up. What do people think? ClanWolverine101 18:17, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Hy ClanWolverine, very very nice article.--Doneve 18:20, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

sub-stub

Hey, tnx for your message. I have two questions to you:

1st: How many content is necessary for an article that he doesn't fall under the sub-stub category?
2nd: Can we create a common style for the biography like the units?

with best regards Neuling 18:56, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

No problem. To answer your questions:
1) Ask Rev. :)
2) Sure. The pic just jumped out at me because it was huge; most of the pics are "thumbs".

Cassie Suthurn

Hi Wolverine. I'm slowly doing Cassie Suthorn article, i do have the novel. I'm nearly burned myself out writing first two. I plan to do it within next or so. -- Wrangler 11:57, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

That's cool. I just through some stuff up there so it wouldn't be forgotten. Thanks. ClanWolverine101 21:17, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

2010 Founders Awards

Hey Wolverine! For being with us for just a year, you've had a huge impact on the quality of articles on BTW. The research and level of detail you put into articles is reflected immediately on the site. Thanks for all of your hard work! You've been awarded the Founder's Superior Editor of the Year award: Nicjansma 06:21, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Founder's Superior Writer of the Year Award

Thank you very much! Its nice to be recognized! :) ClanWolverine101 03:37, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Personal - Equipment

Hey wolverine. What is your opinion about my latest article about the euipments? I know it must be filled with additional information from the indivdual sources. I will do this the next couple of days. For help or any helpful thougths I'm grateful. Neuling 22:04, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Neuling - Its an impressive amount of material. I would suggest a new Project:Discussion page to go over thingslike formatting. (Much like you see with mechs, character bios, and planets.) Does that makes sense? ClanWolverine101 22:30, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Kester Hsiun Chi

Kester Hsiun Chi is up. Yet another minor Robert Charrette character I've become enamored with. :) ClanWolverine101 06:10, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Hy, sorry i have only the pdf version, with no pics :(.--Doneve 14:17, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
Oh well. Thanks anyway! ClanWolverine101 06:23, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

7th Lyran Regulars

7th Lyran Regulars are up. These poor guys never stood a chance. Hey Doneve - got an insignia image for me? :) ClanWolverine101 11:47, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Isoroku

I laughed when I saw your summary memo, but can you please fill in the licensing info for File:Isoroku.jpg? I'm curious as to where it comes from and we can be fairly certain it falls under fair use. --Revanche (talk|contribs) 23:48, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Done. Sorry - I don't do images often. ClanWolverine101 01:08, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
Looks like a leader token from the Succession Wars boardgame. Frabby 00:44, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
Indeed it was. ClanWolverine101 01:05, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
Thanks!--Revanche (talk|contribs) 12:15, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

My own tools

One Year

Wow. So I have been an Editor and Writer on Sarna.net for one year. In that year, I feel I've gotten to know a lot of you a little bit, and perhaps you've gotten to know me. I'd like to thank Rev and many others for really guiding me early on, helping me conform what I was doing to the greater whole without discouraging me at all. I'd like to thank Doneve, not only for his incredible amount of content, but for helpfully providing images to character bio articles, which helps make good articles into great ones. I'd like to thank Nic for starting this up in the first place, and for honoring me with a Founder's award. I'm grateful to all of you. (Yes, even you, Scaletail. :) ) Most of all, and this is selfish of me, I'm grateful to have an output where I can pursue my passion for writing.

When I look at some of my early contributions, I confess I do cringe a little. I was looking for my voice with respect to Sarna.net, and hadn't found it yet. I think I made progress with my Waco Rangers article, and I think I hit my groove with my later character articles. Along the way, I like to think I've helped improve other articles around the wiki, many with relatively small copyedits and "cleanup" tags reminding me to come back; others with far more substantial contributions. I've racked up a decent Edit Count (though I'll never touch Doneve. ;) ), but I like to think I've done so in good faith.

Because honestly? In my opinion, no article on this site is ever truly complete. There are always potential changes to be made, as the vision of the wiki changes. Even the product articles may need editing from time to time to note a reprinting, new versions (like the TROs), and new contexts. There are almost always copyedits, and compromises to style. So even though part of me considers the articles I've written from scratch to be my "children", another part of me knows I need to let them go, and (hopefully) let them grow with the help of other editors.

As we move forward, I hope to put a dent in the "to do" list of new articles I keep by my desk. I hope the wiki will grow in respect to the Classic Battletech community, which was always healthier than WizKids understood. I hope we are joined by more editors with a passion for this fictional universe and a willingness to work with others. I hope good thoughts for all of you.

Thanks all.
