Grammar Problems and Still-Missing Pieces[edit]

If this article is to be "a[n exact] transcription of the text", then should we leave the grammar errors present in the original text, in the article? How would we tell which are original and which were introduced by editors?

Also, some pieces appear to still be missing -- the transcript seems to end abruptly. Is this because content that was unchanged from the original Halo 2 manual was omitted (in which case such an omission should be noted in the article), or simply because nobody who has the Collector's Edition Manual has bothered to complete its replication in this article?

Regarding the originality of the transcript, I suggest talking to Dragonclaws about that as I believe he is the editor who added the transcription of the text. If the transcript is original, then we should leave the grammar errors as it is. (Oh, visited your deviant page... :P )- 5əb'7aŋk^(7alk) 21:24, 29 May 2009 (UTC)

Some of them is really useful. :) - 5əb'7aŋk^(7alk) 18:10, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

Missing Pieces[edit]

I was just wondering. I lost my special edition manual long ago, but was there not more? Descriptions of human weapons were included too. Anyone with the manual willing to transcribe the rest?

And how do I sign my name? accidentprone8

You're right, there is a lot more that is simply missing. However, I don't have that manual, so I can't personally fill it in. Anyone mind doing the deed. Oh, and for signatures, 4 consecutive "~" without the quotes. XRoadToDawnX 11:02, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Thel 'Vadamee may not be the Supreme Commander[edit]

IT is possible that Thel 'Vadamee is not the Supreme Commander who wrote this. Although it is likely that it was, but until further proof this should be removed as soon as possible!Gogeta21 21:30, April 30, 2010 (UTC)!!!!!!!!!!
