BattleTech Centers:

This list was updated based on an edit by VirtualWorld Owner Nick Smith that got reverted. He is the direct source on this information, so no reference is needed, however, I referenced the list of sites on the website, as well as his post on the forums stating he made the original edit as sources for the official information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dicion (talk • contribs) 00:16, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Recent edits on BattleTech Centers:

I'm not sure why so many edits keep getting reverted. I updated content to keep it factual and had edits purged indicating that the referred site did not match (The company website that I own and operate). When I reverted indicating that the data was indeed on the web site, another editor removed the operators listing outright stating that wikipedia isnt the yellow pages.

Well, from what I can tell, plenty of other articles feature product and location information (Planet Hollywood for example). How does this relevant information breach the intent if Wikipedia? -PropWash PropWash (talk) 19:08, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

I was reverting changes to the list of BattleTech Centers because I kept going to http://www.mechjock.com/main/sites/ and finding information that differed from the website. The Mechjock.com website takes precedence over Wikipedia. (I think I've been through this before.) It looks like the Mechjock site has, finally, been updated so I won't be reverting changes to the BattleTech center list. --TreyGeek (talk) 04:18, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

We support a history and list of the historical Battletech sites. We desire to avoid self-proclaimed authorities. As someone with interest in the regulatory aspect, the sources should have been better cited. Propwash that is self proclaimed as the "owner" should be vetted with regulatory authorities. Example: go to the State of Michigan, find a business search. If the State regulatory agency doesn't find a company claim to be "In Good Standing", then why should this be allowed on Wikipedia as a fact? ICAAN, GSA, USPTO and other agencies are increasing activities to evaluate credibility. Wikipedia might always respect the regulatory authorities status over someone's webpage. The statement above that The Mechjock.com website takes precedence over Wikipedia should be reconsidered. Please visit MechJock.com. If someone claims to have purchased a company, it is an easy claim to validate with the regulatory agencies. It is an easy claim to cite with a realistic "news release" as required by Delaware regulatory agencies. Planet Hollywood did check out.

Virtual World Entertainment LLC has been a Delaware LLC since 1998 or so and anyone is welcome to pay the good people of Delaware for the certificate of good standing.

Repeated IP vandalism

As there seems to be repeated and ongoing edit wars between good-faith editors and the same few IP addresses, I reverted the page back to the last known good edit, and perhaps nominating it for protection. A sentient pickle (talk) 01:58, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
