"T1? T2? T3? etc WTF? (2008)[edit]

I've *NEVER* heard of any versions of Traveller being called "Tx" except for T4, T20 and T5. Common usage is CT/MT/TNE/GT/TH. I'm adjusting the section titles to reflect common usage. Gruffty - ^{Hivers: If you tolerate us, then your children will be next...} 08:42, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah-no-sorry about that,that line of reasoning didn't bear up under the two day old pizza,and those 5 cans of beer... - Foss Altus (talk) 07:58, November 30, 2012 (UTC)

New Traveller[edit]

I think it is time to fix the “New Traveller” label for Mongoose Traveller 2e.

It never caught on as the label for MgT2e
Things labeled New will age out of that label

And finally

This is the only place I have seen MgT2e called “New Traveller”

What say the other editors?

... and, yes, I understand this isn’t a small task due to technology and cargo. —¿philoserf? (talk) 09:22, 6 August 2020 (EDT)

FTR: I still think this is something we should fix. —¿philoserf? (talk) 21:21, 30 August 2021 (EDT)

Cepheus Engine[edit]

Is it time to add Cepheus Engine to the list? DriveThru RPG —¿philoserf? (talk) 09:40, 6 August 2020 (EDT)

Edition column[edit]

The edition column does not correspond to any edition numbering outside this wiki. I propose it be removed and any references to these editions be removed from articles. —¿philoserf? (talk) 09:41, 6 August 2020 (EDT)

-This is just a thought-I know you,as in the people writing these entries, are well familiar with the various time periods and versions.However, some of our newer,perhaps younger viewers(and the almost alzheimary ones like me),might benefit from a clear "Hey-this is the time period/version this article applies to".I'll admit the main reason I know some this stuff is only because I've seen it from the engine to the caboose-well,it don't really have a caboose-prolly never will-but you know what I mean.Someone brand new to the game looking set up a campaign might find it a little frustrating (this cosa nostra we have)-since I figure we're kind of doing this for them anyway-right?  [[User:Foss Altus|Foss Altus]] ([[User talk:Foss Altus|talk]]) 06:54, November 30, 2012 (UTC)
