==Ranks==
== why I dislike the army==
Hey ed do you think all the ranks are right ?And if you do can you put a stop to the deletion crap and stuff?--[[User:Ryanngreenday|Ryanngreenday]] 21:29, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
:The problem is, we have no difinitive rank scheme. The ranks that have been mentioned so far are all american ranks, but we don't know for sure if they are the only ranks. We've never seen a ''specific'', citeable chart depicting all the ranks. For all we know, there could be a "third lieutenant" or a "technical sergeant" in the Marine ranks. We just ''don't know for sure.'' That's why the ranks will probably have controversy attatched to them until Bungie comes out and says for sure that the rank system is the same as today's american system. -[[User:ED|ED]] 23:37, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

Dear sir,
Hi, I'm pretty new to the whole halopedia thing so I figured i should probably ask what to do (I found you'r name on a discussion tab, please let me know if i should send this to someone else).


I have found problems with the [[User:Fist of Rukt|Fist of Rukt]] regarding a statement saying that I should "rot in the pits of hell". This can be found at [[User talk:Fist of Rukt#Covenant Supercarrier|the following link to his talk page]].  
I listened to the axon sound files in "I love bees" and noticed that there seems to be a problem with the timeline of the Spartan II project in relation to Jan, Durga and Kamal's respective ages.


Cheers,
According to you'r page on the spartan projects the potential candidates for the Spartan II project were abducted in 2517. Yasmine died during her augmentation process in 2525, Durga is created at this point. As she is 7 years old when she meets Jersey the year must be 2532, according to "I love bees" this is the time that the covenant first attacked earth, however, according to the novels, games and your own timeline this did not occur untill 2552, twenty years later.


'''[[User:RelentlessRecusant|<font color="red">Relentless</font>]][[User talk:RelentlessRecusant|<font color="blue">Recusant</font>]][[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]]''' 20:42, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
Also, the time between Jan's attemped abduction by ONI and the time when she appears in "I love bees" is said to be 15 years (2517-2532) meaning that if she was six years old at the time she must now be 21, however, her age is given as 17.
==Relentless Honor for Work on [[Sangheili]] Article==
I dont know wether this issue has been adressed before as I only listened to the axon sound files a few days ago, if they have I apologise for wasting your time.
Sir, for your exceptional, persistent work on the Elite article, I present to you...

== Few Questions. ==
 
Are you back from your vacation? Also if you dont even have an Xbox or play Halo....why are you so dedicated to Halopedia?--[[User:JohnSpartan117]] [http://installation07.uk.to] 01:54, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
:Heh, yeah I'm back, though not in the same 50-edit a day capacity as I was; I think I did a pretty good job at transcribing every detail from the books to the wiki, so I cant really be as active as I was since theres not as much for me to do.
 
:I'd have to say I'm still dedicated to Halopedia just because the story of halo is amazing. I have/play Halo PC and go to plenty of Halo parties, but never got around to getting an Xbox. I'm really thinking of getting a 360 when Halo 3 and/or Halo wars come out though, and I'll probably get Halo 2 Vista (I borrowed my friend's xbox and beat Halo 2). So, I still play the games a lot, and I like the storyline. -[[User:ED|ED]] 19:52, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
 
Makes sense. Would you like to play Warcraft with me?--[[User:JohnSpartan117]] [http://installation07.uk.to] 05:19, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

==Legendary==
 
Wikias are horrid places. There are always vandals, power-abusive admins (on other sites, not this), idiots who think that know everything and make amends to articles w/o actually considering references, so on and so forth. I have found no such characteristics in you, Ed. Every ''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx'' article has already been conceived by you. Hell, most articles of this Wikia are your children, offspring so numerous that they seed the stars.
 
You are the one I hold in highest esteem. None sing praises of you, and I feel that your desolation can not end, as I continue to uncover your unceasing work.
 
Therefore, I proclaim you Legendary: higher than all users. As the chronometer looms closer, drawn to the New Year, I believe it is time to herald the greatest Halopedian that has ever stood: a brazen, fearless one who has labored for so long in such darkness, never faltering, never heralding your work.
 
I am honored to give you the following accolade:
{{Legendary|December 22, 2006}}
 
With utmost sincerity and respect,

A forum isn't good enough because of many different reasons, 1, it's not popular on Forums, because it's boring there. 2, it's easier to make a fan fiction on a wiki than just some forum, trust me I would know.--[[User:H*bad|H*bad]] 04:25, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Ed, to tell you the truth, I was kind of skeptical that SOC was an Elite rank, but from experience from Wookieepedia, until two things, ranks or ships, have been explicitly confirmed to be equal, i.e. SOC and Ultra in our case, two seperate pages are constructed.
 
Thanks.

:It has never been implied in any way that they are different. The only "difference" that was given between them was that Half-Jaw's armor looked "a little lighter". That could be just as easily explained by the ambient lighting of the images, or just because we don't have any actualy game screenshots of a regular Ultra to compare to, so the writer compared Half-Jaw to the images on the Ultra page. It could also be that, since they designed the Half-Jaw model from the ground up, they made a mistake, or that is just how the game renders the model. There are a million reasons why the armor "looking" lighter could have been unintentional/made-up, and only one far fetched reason why it could. Making two seperate articles for this nonsense is reading ''way'' to far between the lines and making things up. Ultras are seen everywhere, commanding all kinds of forces, including the SpecOps. -[[User:ED|ED]] 23:18, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
==RE:[[Template:Elite Ranks]]==
 
it's a rather radical change, but I can't disagree. I think both look kinda stylish, so it's your call, bossman, Ed, Mr. Administrator, sir, excellency, Mr. Administrator of Halopedia, one whose userpage was ripped off by a user who's known as RR, someone that's made a helluva number of pages, or WHATEVER TITLE YOU WANT! =D ;D

== fanart ==
 
Our little disagreement in the fanart topic was getting a little out of hand, so I'm just going to ask you here: What exactly constitutes that an image be classified as fanart? What exactly constitutes that an image classified as fanart be voted upon as to whether it is kept or deleted? Because as far as anyone else can tell, the Seraph picture is only fanart in that the model was taken out of the game and rendered from a good angle with different lighting and a background. Dojorkan actually said that it's probably classified as fanart because it wasn't an official picture released by Bungie. If this is the case, then every single unofficial game screenshot should be voted upon as well before it can be used. Even if you allow multiplayer screenshots, there are other modded screenshots that have been left untouched by the fanart committee, and it just gets confusing. If you can answer those questions, it would be greatly appreciated, and putting them on the fanart page would also be most helpful. '''[[User:Guesty-Persony-Thingy|<font color="red">g<sup>u</sup>e<sub>s</sub>t<sup>y</sup></font>]]-[[User talk:Guesty-Persony-Thingy|<font color="blue">p<sub>e</sub>r<sup>s</sup>o<sub>n</sub>y</font>]]-[[Special:Contributions/Guesty-Persony-Thingy|<font color="green"><sup>t</sup>h<sub>i</sub>n<sup>g</sup>y</font>]]''' 02:54, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 
:Oh. I wasn't really mad or anything I was just saying...Anyways, Fan Art is usually considered to be anything that was created outside of Bungie resources. All screenshots, most mods using material on the Halo disk, and all images from the [[Halopedia:Canon Policy|Canon]] sources are not fanart, but any drawings, graphics, animations, or other things are considered fanart because they were completely created by fans. The Seraph Image is considered fanart because, though the seraph shown is based on the one that appears in the game, it isn't. It was likely designed and rendered entirely by a fan and not made from modding. It's in a gray area, so the fanart comittee gets to decide it.
 
:Of course, you'rte talking to me, probably the hard-liner of the comittee. I don't think any non-screenshots are needed on Halopedia, and usually vote that way. For clarification, though, I should create an Image Policy. -[[User:ED|ED]] 20:03, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 
==I had an idea==
I’ve had an amazing idea;
As certain Users have more knowledge in different areas of the Halo Universe why not chose a main user to keep an eye on, watch over those certain articles e.g. the star ship articles Relentless worked hard on, or all the weapon articles. They would be like Semi Admins with no privileges it would just be their job to make sure that there was no Fan Fiction or over vandalism in their articles and start up votes for articles deletion or merging; Users could go to them to refure data and so on. They could be chosen by the Admins or elected by the users meaning starting up campaigns which would be very amusing. And given Titles to fit their job e.g. [[Imperial Admiral]] it was just a thought. --[[User:Climax Viod|Climax Viod]] 15:46, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

I meant not to offend you, Ed.
 
I understand that Halopedia's not exactly any other Wikia, but implore you to look at Wikipedia and Halopedia. For all fictional battles (ie: in our case, Halo), it's the Battle of Whattevergoesinhere.
