Re: Redirects
Hey ED, nice to hear from you :)

I do typically leave redirects alone but those two were tagged and had pretty ambiguous names, so I got rid of them.

Feel free to restore though, and thanks for the tip, I'll keep it in mind.

RE: List of UNSC Military Units
1. I was just speculating on what the unit's actual name probably is, "Twenty-Second Tactical" is normally a formal military unit name.

2. I'm convinced it is, members of the 105th Division are called Helljumpers, and so are the members of the 7th Battalion. Either i'm right, or every Shock Trooper is nicknamed as an "Helljumper"

And I sure will put my views down on this.

Rawr, Colonel  Tony  Talk 10/10/2007
 * Yeah I agree, "22nd tactical" is driving me crazy too. Unfortunately nothing else was released about the unit. It could be the "22nd tactical squad" or the "22nd tactical public relations team" for all we know. We just cant put anything down for certain about it. As for the 105th, there are many divisions of ODSTs, but no correlation between ODST units and the term "Helljumper" has been explicitly stated. I was under the impression that "Helljumper" described the job of an ODST, not a partuclar unit. Just like how all the US Army's special forces are called "Green Berets" even though only 2 of the 7 functional special forces groups have green insignia, and not all special forces literally wear green berets. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 02:52, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Hi, Ed, sorry to bother you with such a menial task, but I've been getting absolutely no help from the correct people whatsoever. I've done a few edits here and there as this IP, but it's actually Diaboy. I've requested my password be changed several times; I get the corresponding email but the password I recieve doesn't work. I sent a message to the wiki help people but I am yet to get a respons and this was a good week ago. Any ideas?

Fist Of Rukt
The redirect you made is not necessary unless someone links to that page; if someone types in "Fist Of Rukt" in the searchbar, but the page doesn't exist, it'll take them to Fist of Rukt instead automatically. -- NOTASTAFF  GPT ( talk )( eating ) 00:26, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Heys! I gots an ideas!
Hey ED, good to see you again, hey while I was gone I came up with a great idea that could benifit the wiki community. I came up with the idea of a new Usergroup/Community Team for Halopedia, Halopedias very own Forge team! Now before I go on understand that I know about the policys and rules about this so consider this to be an idea(just like the Monitors of Halopedia) to be approved by you and the other admins. Basicly this would be a group of any number of individuals with a leader/organizer. Screening would included so not everyone joins. the rules would be that you need to have a basic knowledge of forge, have a good working knowledge on how to make FAIR,FUN, and EXCITING maps. Noone who makes maps for a single person or team would be accepted. People who wiss to join would send me(if it is OK that I be founder and leader,open to suggestion btw) an application on 1.Why they want to join and why they think they would benifit the community. 2. Examples of maps they have made. pics or vids would be great. and 3. If they have a particular role or job they would wiss to have such as Sandtrap only maps,etc. Anyways as I have said this is an Idea to be approved as this is also sent to the other admins. If you have any questions regarding this, contact me. BTW, good to see you again, I finally got unblocked! yay! WRAITH 21:26, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

M-EDF 9/21/1 and the 1st Battalion are two names for the same unit, so I figured one should redirect to the other, and since M-EDF 9/21/1 was specifically names while "1st Marine Battalion" wasn't, I figured it would be a better idea. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 01:30, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Good luck on yours! -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 00:36, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Re: IRC functions
Hey ED,

This page has some information on commands, but the basic ones you need are:


 * /msg ChanServ op #halopedia - Ops you
 * /kick blah - kicks "blah" (replace with the nick you want to kick)

For banning, use:

/ban nick!user@host

So, if you want to ban "Manticore", you'd type /mode #halopedia +b Manticore!*@*

If you wanted to ban a particular IP address or cloak, you'd use /ban *!*@wikia/Manticore (wikia/Manticore is my cloak).

If you're banning someone who is using the irc.wikia.com gateway, type /ban *!*12345678@gateway/*

Where 12345678 is the alphanumeric string that is the users hex IP address.

If you've got any questions or need to know more, you can leave me a message or email. :)

 * Ahh, ok. Much thanks. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 01:18, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Edits
sorry man, my bad.
 * You didn't do anything wrong, I was just welcoming you to Halopedia and inviting you go create an account. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 01:02, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

An Image
How did you get this picture: onto Halopedia, becuase when ever I try to save that type of image from my service record it wont work it just says set as background. What's your secret to making it a jpg image?

 * All I do is open the service record, hit "printscreen" and use paintbrush to cut that image out. Here, I uploaded your current one for you:

Thankyou.

Thanks!
It just started out as a couple pictures, but soon became an obsession. Glad it ended up in a shiny medal though. :) --Justin Time 22:02, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Sure thing. It's not often I notice someone with such devotion. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 00:22, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Justin Time's images
As the uploader, his name is on the file history. As I understood, we don't allow people to put their names on any mainspace things--articles, images, templates, whatever, if it's not a talk page, you don't credit yourself. If you want to change that, please email the Administration so we can discuss it. -- NOTASTAFF  GPT ( talk )( eating ) 22:59, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Its part of the legal nonsense we have to fulfill. Though he doesn't use a disclaimer template, as the photographer of the work, he does have to officially release it to the public, and from what I understand, the upload log doesn't count. And so, about 95% of our images are currently copyright violations because they neither aknowledge Bungie for creating the work nor the creators of any images. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 23:33, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Good, lord, you're right! His pages should still have copyright templates on them, though. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 18:28, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Ok
Sure, but I might change that soon to something better. Until then though, go ahead, it's not like I am shy or anything. WRAITH 19:35, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
 * OK. You can just reupload another image under the same name, and save yourself the hassle of having to change the images and stuff. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 19:36, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Congratulations!
The way I see it is, if we give you the top rank right away, you'll have nothing to strive for! :P -- Manticore   (talk)  06:36, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Hah hah, very true. I'll work on that. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 06:49, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Deleting images
I dunno if you're just deleting all images or what... but if you are, could you make sure not to delete any that look like they've got at least a fair chance of being used in the future? Kthx. =D -- NOTASTAFF  GPT ( talk )( eating ) 23:44, 23 December 2007 (UTC)


 * I'm just going through the unused image and removing the ones that arent being used...most of them are duplicates, user images, or just low quality. And sorry about messing up the admin skin, I keep changing that without meaning to. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 23:45, 23 December 2007 (UTC)


 * Yeah, most are... but if you see any that look good, keep 'em around, will yeh? Categorize 'em too if you've got the time, I'm gonna start looking for good images to use sometime. I think. -- NOTASTAFF  GPT ( talk )( eating ) 23:53, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

Fan Art Committee
Dear ED,

Was just bring to your attention the Fan Art Committee (FAC). I was speaking to users @ the IRC, and I was critiquing a particular article when I noticed the main image was fan art. I asked why they'd placed it there and the response was it was approved by the FAC.

Sir, with respect -- I think no fan material in any form should be permitted on Halopedia. Halopedia is a place for canonical material, not for fan material. I ask if the FAC may be disbanded and fan art be immediately removed.

Regards,

 * Man, I can say with all honesty that I wholeheartedly agree with you- I want 0 non-canon images on Halopedia. But as it is a committee, I often get outvoted on these issues. I would hate to destroy the group consensus-based nature of the wiki, though. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 05:22, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

Medals
Not to sound needy or anything, but I recently reached the 1,000 mainspace edit mark. That means I get a Legion medal in the UoH correct? -- <font color="Black">Lieutenant <font color="Black">AJ  02:55, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Thats quite correct. You have earned it. I'll formally award you the medal in a few minutes. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 04:16, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

RE: list of ultras
sorry i didn't realize you were working on something. I'll revert the page back to the way it was before. --<font color="Green">EliteSpartan  <font color="Black">My Talk <font color="Black">My Contribs  04:11, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Don't worry, I already did that. -- E D [[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]] 04:15, 26 December 2007 (UTC)
