• Dude, no worries: I've seen you've made some good calls on corrs already. Do *whatever* you feel like doing. But definitely bring in some of your stories, too! --Revanche (admin) 23:18, 12 November 2006 (CST)

• Thanks for the compliment. I have been workign on the designs for a while, 3025 was a real hard one. I had a big run on getting things done in the designs when I was out of work with a herniated disc for a couple of weeks, couldnt work at work so I had to do something. That and I have an interest in the technology of the game and its fiction as well. I havent had a chance to read your fiction yet but Im sure I will soon and Im glad to have you on the BatleMech project.--CJKeys 23:28, 13 November 2006 (CST)

• Welcome! It's great to have the additional help! Nicjansma 01:39, 14 November 2006 (CST)

Fiction

• Yeah, I've just made a couple of basic grammatical corrections at the moment.

As for my fiction most of it is kind of New Star-centric so doesn't completely fit within the CBT canon 'verse. I'm gonna write some new stuff to post here. Jimmy the Tulip

Great! Even your New Star fiction rings as being BT-related. Maybe its not the easiest stuff for non-New Stellarians (New Starites, New Starians...?) to grasp right away, but the intent of the stories are clear. Hint: on the edit field, when you're done writing something and want to 'sign' it, click on the 2nd button on the right, which looks like a Q and some script. Doing that actomatically inserts the wiki code necessary to sign and date-stamp your post. --Revanche (admin) 17:30, 13 November 2006 (CST)

Ok, well I'm more than happy for it to go up here. I don't have the original Word Docs (on a CD at home somewhere) so it's probably best to copy and paste it over from New Star. I'm in the process of writing a CBT fan fic set during the Reunification War so will have some "legit" stuff to post soon. ;)

• I've made my first fairly substantial change to an entry, BTW. the Planet Cerberus now has historical Information added. Let me know if the format or the positioning is wrong so I know for next time. :)Jimmy the Tulip

I saw, and when it comes to the planetary files, almost nothing has been done by anyone. That means...you're setting the style. I looked over it and added a few links (years, names, planets & events (like treaties) are always good to link to, even if no articles yet exist for those items). I'd recommend taking out the preceeding years (like 2583) that you have in front of the paragraphs. They exist within the text, so don't really need to stand out. If you want to add links just add [[ ]] around the item you want linked. That automatically sets the code for the linked article. --Revanche (admin) 18:36, 13 November 2006 (CST)
