::I can provide a screenshot as I already referenced this trivia to the french WikiHalo by this mean, but Waypoint's messaging system don't let you see both the original message and the reply on the same page. Should I upload two screenshot ? What level of detail should be conserved (I would at least leave my gamertag, as a mean to confirm the interlocutors) ? (I'm kinda annoying with all this, but hey, universe is serious business.)  [[User:Lunaramethyst|''<span style="color:#483D8B">ΩPer Mare,</span>'']][[User talk:Lunaramethyst|'''<span style="color:#6B8E23"> ΔPer Terras</span>''',]][[Special:Contributions/|<span style="color:#0000CD"> ΨPer Constellatum</span>]] 13:15, 22 January 2015 (EST)

:::I found WikiHalo's reference [http://wiki.halo.fr/images/5/5f/Lunar_Message_Grim.jpg here]. If you don't want to, I personally don't think it is necessary to leave your gamertag in. And the original image may be fine, although it may be helpful if you could edit in your original question for context. - [[User:NightHammer|NightHammer]] ([[User talk:NightHammer|talk]]) 14:14, 22 January 2015 (EST)

:::Yes, past practice has always been "User takes a screenshot and uploads it; the wiki users will then scrutinise the screenshot". If it's two separate screenshots, so be it. The screenshot must include some form of confirmation that it's from the source (i.e. 343 Industries staff) and that the message was delivered to a user (i.e. owner of the received message). This would avoid any potential disputes as to the originality of the screenshot. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  04:51, 23 January 2015 (EST)
