 * This Stephen Loftus picture shows visually the evolution of the Pelican and should be approved.-- Esemono 07:13, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Hey, it IS what a Pelican looks like. Approve...  SPARTAN-091  [[Image:UNSC.jpg|15 px]] HelmetComm undefined Juliet

Ruling
TRASH The pelican troop pod has never been verifiably described, this image is pure speculation. -ED 21:35, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP The troop pod can be found on the Halo 2 Multiplayer map, Relic. Look at the UNSC-style base on the far end of the island.  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet

DELETE If there is no known source, Halopedia should not help perpetuate speculation. --Dragonclaws 22:21, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
TRASH per Esemono -ED 21:35, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

 * Just a canon image with lines drawn on it.  Guesty - Persony - Thingy  19:46, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Why is this here? It looks like a screenshot, not a contested image.  SPARTAN-091  [[Image:UNSC.jpg|15 px]] HelmetComm undefined Juliet
 * Click on it, it has lines drawn everywhere.  Guesty - Persony - Thingy  22:39, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
KEEP It's a screenshot. Keep unles it is a duplicate image. -ED 21:35, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Also, it has generally been our policy to allow fiction images to be uploaded unless they were used on actual pages. This image is only used by a user for his userpage. Generally we have left userpage images alone, no matter what they are. -ED 23:11, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

DELETE as per below. (changed vote. no dupes)  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet

Reasons to keep/erase

 * It is a fan created ship from here. --Dragonclaws 22:56, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
TRASH This image has been floating around the internet for so long that people believe it is a real image. First, it is fanfiction, as it doesnt even come close to anything else thats ever been seen or described as Covenant. second, it was made by someone who didn't know what ship classification was, as it is the size of a dreadnaught but is called a destroyer, yet is called one of the biggest Covenant ships. Destroyers are only slightly larger than frigates. -ED 21:35, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

DELETE per ED. Inaccurate. --Dragonclaws 22:21, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

DELETE per above.-- ryan  n  green '' day 20:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Reasons to Keep/erase
Erase. This image does not accurately depict how the Imperial Admiral was described, and besides, it looks to be fan art. -ED 21:13, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * "Looks to be fan art"? I'm confused. Isn't that what this page is specifically for? --Dragonclaws(talk) 22:40, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

TRASH per above. -ED 21:13, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Reasons to keep/erase

 * Um... that's a guy? It doesn't, um, look like one...  SPARTAN-091  [[Image:UNSC.jpg|15 px]] HelmetComm undefined Juliet
 * The length and pointedness of the jaw brings to mind a mausculine image (at least to me). I believe it also may have been inspired by Japanese style artwork, which can be more cartoony. --Dragonclaws 21:29, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I've seen manga dudes and they don't look that... *hem* girly. But, keep anyway. Only image we have.  SPARTAN-091  [[Image:UNSC.jpg|15 px]] HelmetComm undefined Juliet
 * What about this guy? --Dragonclaws 20:58, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
TRASH A real image of Jersey Morelli already exists, why highlight one person's interpretation of that image? -ED 21:35, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP There is no real image of Jersey Morelli, there is one of his voice actor. A voice actor can look quite different from the character they are playing; for instance, the character Tucker in RvB is Black yet he's played by a White actor. Not to mention all the aliens and AIs are played by human actors. The fanart, although non-canon, can do a better job of illustrating the character than a promotional image of Zan Passante. --Dragonclaws 22:21, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP pure above.-- ryan  n  green '' day 00:42, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP per my reasons above.  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet

 * To specific, we don't know if Linda is white, has blonde hair, has hair, etc -- Esemono
 * In one of the Halo books, Linda is described as having red hair and pale skin. (FoR, pg. 79: "Linda was the quietest member of the group. She was pale, had close-cropped red hair, and green eyes.)  SPARTAN-091  [[Image:UNSC.jpg|15 px]] HelmetComm undefined Juliet

Ruling
TRASH per Esemono -ED 21:35, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP per reasons above.  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet

KEEP per Spartan-091, assuming the information is correct. --Dragonclaws 22:31, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP Its pretty good looks like how she sounds like in the books.-- ryan  n  green '' day 20:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP - Its a cool shot and the MAC guns we know look like that. -- Esemono 15:28, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
KEEP Yeah. Good graphics for fanart.  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet

KEEP per above. --Dragonclaws 07:58, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP per above.-- ryan  n  green '' day 20:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
KEEP Real image impossible to obtain due to the Melissa character only existing in text and sound. Does not look inaccurate, based on dialogue suggesting her hologram is of an attractive woman possibly in her twenties. --Dragonclaws 22:28, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP per Dragonclaws.  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet

KEEP per reasons above.-- ryan  n  green '' day 20:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
KEEP This is fanart of a scene in Halo: The Fall of Reach, and that can provide illustration to characters that would otherwise have no image. --Dragonclaws(talk) 01:03, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP But I would prefer having accurate images on a page rather than having images on the page just for the sake of having them. -ED 01:40, 12 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Well, yeah. I didn't think to mention that. --Dragonclaws(talk) 01:44, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP Its really good.-- ryan  n  green '' day 20:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Reasons to keep/erase

 * This fanfiction image needs to be erased as it fasely represents what a Major badge would look like in 500 years. We don't know what a UNSC Prowler looks like so we don't allow fictional images of it therefore we should do the same for this fan fiction. -- Yamanba 11:00, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
DELETE per above. --Dragonclaws 07:18, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm changing my vote to KEEP per Ed. You can see the badge here. --Dragonclaws(talk) 02:41, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

DELETE as per below and above.  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet

KEEP first, this is not a Major Badge, it is a Lieutenant Colonel/Commander Badge. Second, this badge is seen on Miranda Keyes uniform in every depiction of her, including the images on this website. Look at her collar, you will find this badge there. -ED 02:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP For reasons above, Im canadain and I apove of a foreign rank system. It just makes sence.

Ruling
KEEP This depiction of a Marathon Hulk appears accurate and provides info to the Drinol article. --Dragonclaws 07:18, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP Everything about the creature is just speculation anyhow, the connection between universes is notable. -ED 02:23, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP I concur.-- ryan  n  green '' day 20:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

Reasons to keep/erase
Users want to use this cropped image of another fanart image, Image:Glassingreach.jpg for the Covenant page. What is the ruling?

Ruling
KEEP Looks accurate. --Dragonclaws 00:01, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP nothing here hasnt already appeared directly. -ED 01:44, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

TRASH Its really bad quality.-- ryan  n  green '' day 20:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP WTH, ryan? The image quality on the above pic isn't as bad as the one you supported...  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet

Reasons to Keep/erase
Brilliantly drawn, accurately shows the way they might attack.  guesty - persony - thingy  04:34, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
KEEP per Guesty-Persony-Thingy. --Dragonclaws(talk) 08:39, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP Wow. That's a drawing??  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet

KEEP Agreed.-- ryan  n  green '' day 21:18, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

NEUTRAL good image. -ED 21:31, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Reasons to keep/erase

 * I realize that this is just on someones userpage now but it would be nice to get a ruling so can know if it can be used in articles -- Esemono 16:26, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Is this really fan art? It looks more like a HUD-less screenshot from a cool angle... and it could be used on the page for the mining facility, since that's what it is.  Guesty - Persony - Thingy  21:00, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Ruling
NEUTRAL What for? Where would we use it? I don't know. It is a good pic, though.  SPARTAN-091   HelmetComm undefined Juliet  16:33, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

USABLE - Cool shot of the mine. Doesn't seem to be anything non-canon about it. --Dragonclaws 21:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP Its fine I like it.-- ryan  n  green '' day 20:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

KEEP its just a screenshot of a cinematic. Nothing questionable about it. -ED 21:17, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
