Talk:Human colonies

Given that this article will go into the details of colonization (and presumably, terraforming as well), would it not be better to call it "Human colonization of space" or something similar?--The All-knowing Sith'ari 11:24, 14 October 2012 (EDT)

Yeah, that title would be a little more appropriate.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 20:05, 14 October 2012 (EDT)

Could tie in with how we've titled Prehistoric human civilization. Tuckerscreator^(stalk) 20:34, 14 October 2012 (EDT)

Wow, we sure are finding out about a lot more colonies nowadays, aren't we? Awesome.262VigilantGuardian 15:00, 30 October 2012 (EDT)

Inner or Outer?

Given that some colonies aren't given an inner or outer label, should we include a section for these? File:Colonel Grade One.pngCol. Snipes450File:Colonel Grade One.png 12:30, 14 October 2012 (EDT)

Glassed

There are several planets listed as "Glassed" that should be listed as "Unkown Status." For Example New Constantinople is listed as "Glassed" when according to the Book Ghosts of Onyx it was likely a UNSC Victory, so it should be listed as "Unknown Status." There are a handfull planets that need to be changed. Flavius Aetius (talk) 20:26, 3 March 2013 (EST)

Inner Colony list

Given that it's been consistently stated that the last of outer colonies were glassed or otherwise destroyed or abandoned in 2536, by definition every known remaining UNSC colony is or was an Inner Colony. Is there anything in the Encyclopedia or any of the Visual Guides that contradicts this that I'm not aware of? -- Qura 'Morhek ^{The Autocrat of Morheka} 02:04, 20 February 2014 (EST)

No, it's been said that the majority of the Outer Colonies were wiped out by 2531. Some still remained.262VigilantGuardian (talk) 02:10, 20 February 2014 (EST)

Yeah, the statement about the Outer Colonies' destruction in the original Halo timeline always did say "virtually all". Venezia, for example, obviously isn't an Inner Colony, though I don't think it's ever definitely categorized in the books. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 02:30, 20 February 2014 (EST)

Ack, thanks for the clarification. -- Qura 'Morhek ^{The Autocrat of Morheka} 02:39, 20 February 2014 (EST)

I just thought about whether or not that Camber is a Inner or Outer Colony World and I have decided that it is a Inner Colony, along with other colonies that were featured in H2A/Terminals 2 and 3. Reason #1: the high population (5.6 million), Camber seems to have sprawling cities across it's surface and a economy that mainly manufactures UNSC fleet materials, a hint that it is one of Inner Colonies; Reason #2: it's defenses consisted of a ODP cluster (which were common among the Inner Colonies), several Marathon-class heavy cruisers, some Halcyon-class light cruisers, and a huge amount of frigates (possibly some destroyers and carriers wouldn't be a UNSC Navy battlegroup without them). As for the other colonies it's simple, they are heavily populated (Estuary: over 89 million; Mesa: over 219 million; Greydowns (possible lunar colonies): over 76 million; Kroedis II: over 15 million; Alluvion: over 336 million; Bounty: over 199 million), and that makes think that should be in the Inner Colony list. - EpicZealot1239
