Hey Specops!
First of all, since I haven't been here in a while, I'd like to say congrats on becoming an admin! That aside, I've discovered a discrepency. While the page Eridanus II says the planet was destroyed by the Covenant in 2530. The page Reach states the the title planet fell in 2552. However, the page Epsilon Eridani says that both planets are in the same system, and has the references to "prove" it. As I lack easy access to the Halo books, I was wondering if you could come up with a theory to why this is, or explain to me what is wrong.

Ah, that does make a bit more sense, thank you. KamakaziSparow CommContributions 22:13, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Your fruitfull efforts have not failed you




Slight Problem
After checking through pages that I periodicly help on, I have discovered a small problem that the two of us participate in. You see, your template

Template:Covenant Government

is the one most often used when dealing with the theocracy of the Covenant, however my (older) template

Template:Known Governmental Branches of the Covenant

has also been in use. After finding this out, is there a way to merge the two together, to make a single source?

Tips for beginners
From now on i will edit some pages with tips that will help beginners if it is multi player or campain so mind the edits

Elite Ranks?
Where are the Minor and Major Stealth Elite ranks on the Sangheilli page? Where would and Ultra Honor Guard ranks fall between? What about the Specop Commander rank? Where would that fall? I noticed that all four ranks arn't present under the Covenant Elite Picture under "Ranks" (the one that goes, Councillor, Arbiter, Aristocrat, Imperial Admiral, Supreme Commander, etc.) I think you guys did a really good job. Its hard to find sites like this... Thanks


 * Actually, Ultra Honour Guard and SpecOps Commander are there. As for Major and Minor Stealth Elites, I'm not sure whether they exist. I was under the impression that there were only Stealth, and SpecOps.
 * You're welcome to create a profile, as well. If you did, then it would make answering your questions easier, for one thing! :D --  Councillor  Specops306  -  Kora   'Morhek  05:29, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

A message from Bioniclepluslotr
hello, it's Bioniclepluslotr. ok, i admit, i was sockpupetting Hup2thepenguin, but i didn't know that it was forbidden until very recently, and i'm sorry. also i'm actually thankful that you banned my Hup2thepenguin account. now that account is inactive, i don't consider myself a "criminal" on this site. i also want to know if there is some way to contact admins during a ban. thanks. Bioniclepluslotr


 * Well, talk pages like this are usually the way to contact an admin. Some, like Manticore, use them exclusively, shunning message boards altogether. Others have their email addresses on their userpages, if you look for them.

 * My problem is people who think it's funny to vandalise our articles, often adding abusive, sexist, racist, and otherwise intolerable parts to them, and then get uppity when we ban them.

I am but a lowly regular editor and could use your assistance. Could you please move Aww, Too Bad to Awww, Too Bad. I can't. There's a redirect in the way.

Page that shows ranks and points
i'm not sure if this is a real problem or just a lag, but when i went on the page that shows the logo for each rank and the points you need to get it, a few of the images were missing, replaced with red writing.

Re: Re: Councillorship
What kind of activities do you propose? I'm thinking of little contests to see who can do the most work on a page, the best work on a page, highest quality edits, stuff like that, which will give awards and promotions, and that will inspire CoH users to edit articles more. But EwCDnaudee being the only admin Councillor; he will still have abilities Nicmavr and I won't have; such as protecting and unprotecting pages. Though Nicmavr and I do have Rollback, so that will be sure to help.

And about my sig, I decided to take your advice, use my favorite color, and give myself a rather Lord of the Rings inspired, if not lofty title. — Ko ug  er  ma  st  er  s ,  Lo  rd   of   Va  li  nor  23:06, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

Question Concerning Correction
Specops306-

On the page for "Halo: Combat Evolved" you took "Microsoft took interest in its development" and changed it to "Microsoft took interest in it's development". I just wanted to notify you that "its" mean it belongs to "it". That form of "its" was correct, contrary to popular belief. You corrected the already correct "its" and changed it to the incorrect "it's". "It's" means "it is", and not that it belongs to it. You made it mean "Microsoft took interest in it is development", which is, no doubt, incorrect. I just wanted to tell you not to change any more "its" to "it's" because they both mean different things and the latter is incorrect. Please reply to me once you've read this message.

Legendary Ending
what exactly does the legendary ending mean? like is bungie making an expansion or something because they just cant leave us at that part

Nobody knows what it really means. At its most basic, it just means Forward Unto Dawn is drifting toward a Forerunner planet. But we don't know what that world is, whether it'll enter its atmosphere, whether the Chief will survive reentry, or how long he's been in cryo-sleep. It was just meant to show that, while Bungie has ended the trilogy, it isn't the end for the Master Chief. -- ' Administrator  Specops306  -  Qur'a 'Morhek ''  Honour Light Your Way!

Hey Speccie
Not being a douche or anything but I saw you reverted my edits to John Forge. Why?

About Spartan-II Numbers
I would much appreciate it if you would stop stating that there were 300 SPARTAN-II's, as that is a false statement. According to Fall of Reach, 150 candidates for the program were located by ONI, but due to budgetary constraints only 75 were captured, trained and augmented (out of the 75, of course, we have the 12 cripples, 30 dead and 33 survivors)

Where you are getting your idea that there were 300 S-II's, I don't know: either it's the 300 Spartans of the Greek legend (and subsequent movie 300), or the fact that the Spartan-III Alpha and Beta Companies had 300 candidates in them.

It is true that the Class 2 is of extremely dubious canonicity, but at the current time there is no other, adequate solution to the Spartan problem. So, in the end, the point of this was please stop spreading the falsehood that there were 300 S-II candidates.

New Wiki Help
Specops - I am a sysop on a new wiki (Section 8) and I was wondering how Halopedia got the AJAX refresher on the recent changes page and the Site Activity Special page, because those are both very cool and useful pieces of code that help out a lot and I would like to put them on the Section 8 wiki.

Thanks - ShadowBroker44   (TALK)   (CONTRIBS) 04:08, September 6, 2009 (UTC)

P.S. I saw on your page that you liked Contact Harvest the best out of all the Halo Books, my personal favorite is the Fall of Reach, what did you see in Harvest that you liked so much?

RE Contact Harvest
Hmmmm.... interesting opinion. I liked Contact Harvest, it was a great book and I loved the Dadab storyline, it showed how awesome grunts could be and it gave us more information on Engineers which are one of my favorite races, but there were some things I disliked. One was the AI love story. It wasn't that interesting and I think it diverted the book where another more interesting storyline could have been placed, but it did offer some insights into what the rampant Forerunner AIs could have gone through. The other storyline I didn't like was Sgt. Johnson's. I know it added a huge amount to his character, but I preferred him as the unshakable hero, not the shady ONI operative and that sort of ruined my view of him.

Re: Eridanus-έ Eridani Controversy
Hey, mistakes happen. This is a confusing matter, and I, as much as you, hope we could get a clear answer to it. I know the feeling when you just want to "correct" stuff; something just seems wrong, so no time should be wasted to put up a discussion and wait for someone to answer, which will most likely happen in a few weeks or months, possibly never. I was ready to accept the merge of the systems, but then again, it's hard to ignore all that evidence. Anyways, no harm done. But there's still the question with Ehilend; see the talk page.

The Package Question
What armor is Master Chief wearing in "The Package"? It looks like Mark VI, but he didn't get that until Halo 2. How can he be fighting alongside Kelly after Halo 2 when she was on Reach and then got trapped on Onyx? Is this an episode inaccuracy?

Stranded ships
I was looking at the ships that followed Regret's ship to Delta Halo, and if the ships that chased him completely missed there location, wouldn't that mean they are stranded? Since it was calculated that Delta Halo was like several thousands light years, wouldn't that make it nearly impossible for the ships to return home? I was wondering because I was going to use one of them in a fanon article on the halo fanon wikia. Thanks. --Sgt.T.N.Biscuits 01:49, January 18, 2010 (UTC)

"The other wiki"
Very interesting. There was talk among the administration long ago of moving back to their own wiki, but they never got it off the ground. Besides, while some history and contribution pages have history going to 2005, there is nothing for 2006. If this is indeed an attempt to re-create Halopedia (and not an attempt to steal visitors), they're using a back-up copy of the coding from as early as November 3 2005 - I haven't seen any edit after that, yet.-- Forerunner 14:29, August 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't think that would work.


 * 1) We're too well known as ".wikia" and many sites link to ".wikia";
 * 2) We left Halopedia.org because we couldn't afford to keep it at a large size - how would we work with 6000+ articles when we couldn't afford 1500?#Again - the article count. We failed to transfer a couple hundred articles in its last active month in 2006. How can we properly move 6000+ articles?
 * 3) A similar problem occured on a wikia about Mario wiki members. When one of the admins made his own site, he had Angela permenantly lockout the original, after an argument between the administration (that's profanities - not a political argument).
 * 4) Based on the above, we'll loose many fine members and potential members alike. -- Forerunner 21:30, August 12, 2010 (UTC)
