Do you not think it worthwhile to mention some examples of how things in the Halo Universe may be based off of modern day models? This would give viewers something real to read about and possibly help them associate better with the Halo Universe and its many components. I understand that, for the most part, this is pure speculation. But if you look on many other pages, you see most people do not know for sure whether or not what they say is completely true. They put it out there as a theory, and that's part of the fun in editing these things. We get to put our own ideas out there (provided they are not ridiculous or implausible) for others to see and build off of. Removing all these edits seems like censorship on your part.

:Again, they're speculations and have no grounds in Halopedia unless supported with evidences. Similarities with realworld applications should be avoided as almost everything in the Halo Universe is inspired by something in the present-day/world.

::::That right there sounds worth mentioning in the talk page so you don't have to have the same issue again with another editor. What if you encounter this problem again? Had you left that part of the talk page alone, the editor might have been smart enough to look at it and realize that it had already been addressed. For this reason I believe that ''any'' piece of information referring to the article, no matter how seemingly irrelevant, should be left alone, so that some bozo doesn't repeat the same thing all over again. I understand why you would want to remove the social aspects, but if this socializing is discussing the article and what to do with it, then that too should be left alone. I thought that was what a talk page was for. So far, I haven't seen anything in a talk page worth deleting.
