Hey[edit]

I just thought I'd drop by to congratulate you on your bang-up job on maintaining this wiki. I just checked up on the spoon for the first time in 2 - 3 years and it sucks lol.

Keep it up! :) --Can I drink this? ☆ Do you want to EXPLODE!? 12:18, 18 September 2017 (EDT)

Thanks, I appreciate that. I do what I can! :P--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 12:38, 18 September 2017 (EDT)

CSS[edit]

Hey Spartawhale, just thought I should let you know your CSS highlight is broken and you should probably fix it. Shouldn't it be purple like the other patrollers...? --I don't know how to deal with signatures... 16:59, 25 September 2017 (EDT)

Yeah it should be, looks like we just forgot to add that in. I'll bug CIA or someone about it. Thanks for letting me know.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 17:27, 25 September 2017 (EDT)

Pages I created[edit]

Maybe get rid of the dropship pages but what I did for the ships is the exact same thing as was done for the Covenant cruiser at Longhorn Valley. And I had nothing to do with that one. In fact, if I hadn't found that one, I wouldn't have tried.--WarGrowlmon18 (talk) 15:18, 5 November 2017 (EST)

As for notability, aside from Keyes' dropship, the ships I created pages for did play a big role in the games. One was responsible for the whole fight at SWORD Base and kind of acted like the final boss of the level. Same for the corvette at New Alexandria. The battlecruiser was notable for its role in the battle at the shipbreaking yards and if you think about it, was at least indirectly responsible for the death of SPARTAN-B312 due to him having to stay behind to shoot it down. And it posed a major threat to the Autumn. Alpha-Nine's Phantom was a major part of two of the ODST game's levels and played a major role in the team's escape. And had major objectives surrounding it.--WarGrowlmon18 (talk) 15:24, 5 November 2017 (EST)

Response is here. Edit: Removed link to deleted page.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 12:03, 10 November 2017 (EST)

Gallery cleanup[edit]

As you probably are aware I am doing a huge image sort out on Halopedia. If its not much of an issue can we get this page cleared up. Articles and Uploads. Your contributions do a similar job.-CIA391 (talk) 08:07, 10 October 2018 (EDT)

I don't see any images on that page that are unused. I'd like to keep it the way it is for a record of what I've uploaded to here.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 14:30, 12 October 2018 (EDT)

Its not just unused stuff on others userpages. Most (if not all) images are getting renamed, and userpages are the thing thats making the whole project take 10x longer to do. Your contribution page also has all your edits/uploads on it so its not that the uploads are lost.-CIA391 (talk) 15:57, 12 October 2018 (EDT)

Voting[edit]

Hey spart! I'm so sorry, I only just saw the bit about having the have a certain amount of edits, I'll add something to comments and suggestions later. --EliteForceRecon (talk) 08:34, 8 January 2019 (EST)

-== Stalking my edits again and being biased in favour of the humans ==
-I swear to god if you stalk my edits again, I will report you to the administrators do you want history to repeat itself (and you know EXACTLY what I mean)? Because I sure as hell dont. So, please understand that the covenant do use tactics and strategy like the UNSC (if not more so) especially Elites, Jackals and Brutes, they do have a mind you know I mean 1 single Major Elite could take on 4 marines and still win so thats saying something. {{Unsigned|CookieMonstersayshello}}

-:You can't compare Covenant and UNSC battle tactics and say that one is better - they are too different; it's like saying that Bungie is better at making games than Ensemble, despite your most comparisons being FPS and RPG games. The Covenant military tactic is based on brute force and numbers - they send out Unggoy to their deaths to slow down the enemy. The Sangheili spend their time either shooting in the open or punching their enemies - that's nothing like the UNSC's tactics which involve shooting from behind walls and guerilla warfare strategies. Both the UNSC and Covenant are experienced warriers, but the Covenant, despite campaign successes, cannot be called "tacticians". That word better suits militaries that use strategy to limit casualties, not the Stalin method of throwing in as many as it takes to make it go away.-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 12:28, 7 July 2011 (EDT)
-So Fore, you saying even the Elites arent tacticians you told a different story to 90. MAKE UP YOUR MIND, either the elites are good tacticians or they arent. The humans spray fire and link it thats all THEY do.
---[[User talk:CookieMonstersayshello|CookieMonstersayshello]] 13:17, 7 July 2011 (EDT)
-:The Sangheili are smart - they just don't see the need in using tactics to defeat the enemy. Remember that they have little regard for personal-safety, thereby considering the majority of warfare strategies as unnecessary. Furthermore take note that they have shielding and strong armour plated uniforms - do you think there's a point in sneaking around if you'd consider yourself unbeatable? Cookiemonster, although the Jiralhanae can easily defeat humans in battle, they are ''not'' tacticians - they follow the standard Covenant military strategy of attacking head-on - they're only effective because they're naturally stronger than humans. So in conclusion: the Jiralhanae use their strength and the Sangheili don't see the point in it. However, also note that winning a battle is not automatically a ''tactical/strategic'' victory. Were the Sangheili to use the UNSC's more covert strategies like the SPARTANS (which active camoflague users use to a limited extent), then their Army wouldn't suffer such heavy losses.-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 13:36, 7 July 2011 (EDT)
-As for you HaloFan1234 youve been worse, YOU caused the argument, I have not been blocked for vandalism cause im still editing now. Stop golding up UNSC tactics or the covenant will continue to be golded up by me, who plays halo 1,2 and 3 hours on end just to watch the moments where unsc and covenant fight. The elites and brutes are very superior fighters to the humans considering the humans have spartans on there side, YOUR SAYING ELITES arent as smart, Elites arent as smart, ELITES ARENT AS SMART!?
