==Stop your Excessive Editing==
 
You tend to make the rank pages look smaller, you should try a keep most of the info from before you change them completlely, combind with your new stuff they could look really good so keep the info and add the stuff you add except if you stat whats already there in different words. And how come every time you change the rank pages that there talk pages are gone? Signed the maker of all but 4-6 of the rank pages--[[User:ryanngreenday|<font color="red">'''ryan'''</font>]]''[[User talk:Ryanngreenday/Archive|<font color="blue">'''n'''</font>]]''[[User talk:Ryanngreenday|<font color="green">'''green'''</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Ryanngreenday|<font color="green">'''day'''</font>]] 20:50, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
:I believe when he '''moves''' the pages he isn't moving the Talk pages, pagan fool. -- [[User:Fist of Rukt|Fist of Rukt]] 08:55, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
I agree with Ryan on this one. Though your edits do tend to make some sense, they also shorten already short articles. Also, the Halo novels almost always refer to LTJG as lieutenant junior grade, lacking the comma you added. Because of this, I'm going to move the page back to lieutenant junior grade, but I'll leave the comma in the addresses (though I'm removing the shot you took at the original maker of the article).

Thanks for your input everyone. I have no problem with people editing everything I added, I was just trying to make the articles clearer and more standardised. Most of the information I removed was suplemented by the ranks template I added (such as LTJG lying between Ensign and LT) or seemed to be mere fan fiction. Hope I haven't offended anyone. [[User:Manticore|Manticore]] 09:09, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 
Oh, and in regards to the comma in Lieutenant, Junior Grade - that was based on that being the title for the U.S. Navy rank, which Halo seems to adapt. I know that in the books the comma was omitted but in all the ranks follow the U.S. scheme. No big deal either way in my opinion. [[User:Manticore|Manticore]] 09:13, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
:This is exactly why all Ranks not mentioned in the Halo Universe should be erased!  New users, like [[User:Manticore|Manticore]], are going to think that its OK to add Realworld articles about ranks for Halopedia!  We need to stop this before it gets out of hand!  Soon people are going start adding what present day troop numbers are in platoons and Battalions!  Battalions have changed what like three times since World War II and then to claim that they won't change in the next 500 years its ridiculous!  Only what is mentioned in the Halo Universe should be allowed in Halopedia!-- [[User:Yamanba|Yamanba]] 10:33, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
 
I agree with what you're saying about troop numbers Yamanba , which is exactly why I didn't include any of that sort of information, and was planning to remove it from Marine Rank pages once I got to them. I have read the [[Letter - RE:UNSC Ranking System|letter to Eric Nylund]] though, which states he uses the current U.S. ranking system, probably why the articles of ranks yet to be mentioned remain. I think that keeping these pages is appropriate, otherwise users who come here searching for rank information would only be subjected to a fractured rank structure, which would likely cause confusion. How can we just say Admiral is superior to Ensign? One without knowledge of U.S. ranks might assume that ensign immediately follows admiral in the rank structure. And my creation of crewman recruit/apprentice articles was merely to show a naval equivalent to Marine ranks, though I do understand the argument for deleting them.

Just taking the opportunity to do a little bragging LOL. This award was given on my fifth day of membership. I had 500 edits by my sixth day of membership. Also I created this pretty funky signature on my sixth day. -- [[User:Manticore|<b><span style="color: black">Manticore</span></b>]] [[Image:Fleet Admiral.jpg|25px]] [[User talk:Manticore|<sup><span style="color: black">Talk</span></sup>]]<sup> | </sup>[[Special:Contributions/Manticore|<sup><span style="color: black">CSV</span></sup>]] 13:37, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
 
==RE:[[Letter - Re:Polaski]]==
 
It is entirely possible. However, he may have meant her to be a PO2 and ended up refering to her as a WO1 because he had called her a Petty Warrant Officer earlier. I'll look through the book and present this to him. My main point was to remove Petty from Warrant Officer, as that would contradict the American system that I propose is the basis for the UNSC rank system.

Oh why thank you. I think it's pretty awesome too. Your old one with the monitor was pretty good too, I used it as my inspiration to use an image (can't do that on Wikipedia... too stuck up lol). -- [[User:Manticore|<b><span style="color: black">Manticore</span></b>]] [[Image:Fleet Admiral.jpg|25px]] [[User talk:Manticore|<sup><span style="color: black">Talk</span></sup>]]<sup> | </sup>[[Special:Contributions/Manticore|<sup><span style="color: black">CSV</span></sup>]] 11:55, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[[User:JohnSpartan117|JohnSpartan117]] has been declared MIA as he has not fulfilled his duties as Committee member for a month.  As per Halopedia policy his seat will come up for elections starting Jan 25, 2007.  The user with the most votes will replace John on the Committee for the remainder of his term, not a full three months.
 
If you want to have your voice heard in who to replace John go and vote now.
==award?==
"Thanks to RelentlessRecusant for this award, and for his dedication in presenting many such awards to numerous users."
 
No problem, man. I just feel that all your work on UNSC pages and starship pages is exceptional. Truely. No bsing here. Not that I bs anyway. =D
 
I love your sig. It proclaims you as a fleet knowledge sage, b/c the fleet admiral designator, and the UNSC theme flowing throughout your userpage and your TALK PAGE BOX (I wonder where that's from, cough cough cough...=D ;D ), is very ingenious.
 
Keep it up, Manticore.
 
Cheers,

I checked recent changes, and have seen the profusion of your work on UNSC military organizational unit and rank articles. Incredible. Dammit..you look like me when I started and got really hyped up 'bout this!

== Halo Story Bible ==
 
The Halo Story Bible, is a book owned by a select few at Bungie, that basically tells the whole entire story of Halo pretty much.--[[User:JohnSpartan117]] [http://installation07.uk.to] 04:37, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
 
:Many TV shows/book series/etc. have story bibles as well, so don't think it's just a Bungie thing. A noted exception is Star Trek, where episode writers just did their own thing, causing many continuity errors. --[[User:Dragonclaws|Dragonclaws]]<sup>([[User talk:Dragonclaws|talk]])</sup> 04:59, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
