Current

BattleTech Project

I was advised to inform you, in case of your interest or whatnot, in an independent project I started and have been working on for the past few days. I posted a link on reddit, found link here which was what originally drew interest and someone pointed me to you. In short, its a web-based, interactive map (presently) displaying the ownership of every planet (that I have data for [the current version uses ISCS, but I'm reaching out to other -apparently better- sources for map coords and whatnot]) and its location in the BT universe. I'm also working on some interesting / useful pieces of functionality to click on / mouse over each planet and get information/description for that planet and the planets within jump distance of that planet. If you want to get ahold of me, providing you have a reddit account, send me a message there. --Cryp71c

Broken Link

I noticed that the MUX link on the left navigation bar is broken and links to a deleted page, so the link on the side should also be removed. -BobTheZombie (talk) 21:33, 6 October 2013 (PDT)

• I hope to create a small page that talks about the old-school (and current) MUX/MUSEs soon. Nicjansma (talk) 13:54, 16 October 2013 (PDT)

Layout

Hy Nic i copyied this talk from Mbears talk page, please give us a statement about the new layout on the various Combat Vehicle pages, if it works or not or ideas.

Hi Mbear, can you take a look on the Heimdall (Combat Vehicle) page i changed the headers a little bit, my feeling is it looks much better and has a cleaner overview as our standard formating, what do you think? Ok iam be bold the new layout looks great, if it not become acceptance i revert me changes.--Doneve (talk) 16:48, 29 October 2013 (PDT)

I for one don't like the new layout, because it makes the headings as big as the title, which just looks wrong to me. Additionally, Wikipedia uses the two == layout and it works quite well. That's just my opinion; we need more people to chime in. -BobTheZombie (talk) 20:06, 29 October 2013 (PDT)

There is no problem, we can change the headings size for the new layout, but a admin must do this, oh Bob the arcticle name size and the new heading size is the same, or iam wrong? I think not.--Doneve (talk) 20:32, 29 October 2013 (PDT)

If you look on Wikipedia, you'll see that section headings have a hairline that covers the width of the page. I do think it makes the article more readable. Any thoughts on adopting this here? --Scaletail (talk) 20:09, 30 October 2013 (PDT)

I would prefer to keep the previous layout, where two equals (==) are used for headings. This corresponds with an H2 HTML tag. One equal (=) is a H1 HTML tag, which should be reserved for the page title. Nicjansma (talk) 08:15, 7 November 2013 (PST)

Ok, Mbear give me a CSS code and it works then i have the layout i want.--Doneve (talk) 14:44, 7 November 2013 (PST)

Nic, it's not about using H1s instead of H2s, it's about changing what H2s look like. Rather than just being an underline, the Wikipedia formatting uses a hairline that runs the width of the page. I think it increases readability. --Scaletail (talk) 18:33, 7 November 2013 (PST)

But we still need to revert all those back that were changed, quiaff? -BobTheZombie (talk) 19:16, 7 November 2013 (PST)

Work in progress, quiaff!--Doneve (talk) 19:36, 8 November 2013 (PST)19:29, 8 November 2013 (PST)

My apologies, good sir, I put that up just before you were working on it and didn't remove it in time! -BobTheZombie (talk) 09:08, 9 November 2013 (PST)

Oh sure - we can make H2s have a bottom border instead of being underlined. I like it too, I've made the change. Nicjansma (talk) 14:45, 12 November 2013 (PST)
