*Clean up categorization of technological items, especially adding "Technology" category tag to pretty much anything that would be considered a discrete technology. The category page [[:Category:Technology|Technology]] is the general umbrella start point.
 
*Finish the Jump Jet article tree to establish a standard for other technology types.
 
*Tag all weapon equipment and technology pages.
 
*generate list of needed articles.
 
*Determine how we want to handle equipment brands [[BattleTechWiki talk:Project Technology#Equipment Brands|See talk page]]

== Guidelines ==
*Of prime interest to PT is the stuff that goes into making other units. Things like the weapons and components that go into Mech' design along with small equipment such as infantry weapons and personal equipment. While completed designs are of interest to PT, they are secondary, primarily being the end product that the technology gets put into.
 
 
*Link everything, at least once. If the term is [[Star League]], link to it. If [[House Marik]] is referenced in the text, link to it. Link to other unit types, like [[DropShip]]s. If the same term is used a lot, especially in the same paragraph, please link only once. But link, even if the linked article does not yet exist: it will someday!

*Add any date information  and make sure it has a link associated.  This makes updating the timeline and associated year articles much easier.
