Even if | Even if General5 7 gave you permission to recreate the article, this page needs to be merged with the plasma mortar article for two reasons: It has been confirmed to be a type of plasma mortar, but then someof you might say, "This subject is notable enough to warrant its own article.", however I might reply saying that because its name is unconfirmed and is called "plasma mortar" by Bungie, it should stay in the "plasma mortar" article until it gets an official name. --{{User:Cally99117/Sig}} | ||
:I agree. It is definately subject to its own article, as it functions entirely different from a traditional Wraith Plasma Mortar. However, we don't know its official name, or even its common name. Nor do we even know the official name for the Revenant. Bungie seems a little lax in their canon reveals and focuses more on gameplay reveals in these last few months before release. So, I believe we'll get some of what we're looking for in the game manual. Anywho, even though it hasn't been named yet, that doesn't stop us from creating an article for it. It is a different weapon and deserves a different article. A more appropriate name would be "[Unspecified/Unknown/Unnamed] Plasma Mortar".--''[[User:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Fluffy</span><span style="color:gray; font-family:Verdana">Emo</span><span style="color:black; font-family:Verdana">Penguin</span>]]<sup><small>([[User talk:FluffyEmoPenguin|<span style="color:gray">ice quack!</span>]])</small></sup>'' 19:37, August 13, 2010 (UTC) | :I agree.

::It is a ''type'' of plasma mortar, but it isn't ''the'' plasma mortar. I do feel that it's significant enough to warrant its own article. I added the ArticleName template to show that, while we don't yet know its official name, apart from the catch-all "plasma mortar" term, it is a separate weapon. My point is this: it's going to have its own article some day, so it might as well have one now. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson]] 19:46, August 13, 2010 (UTC) | ::It is a ''type'' of plasma mortar, but it isn't ''the'' plasma mortar.

::I'd say why not. A super scarab article seems fine by me, even though it isn't really that central to the story. Then again, the Scarabs in Halo Wars, Halo 2 and Halo 3 are considerably different in appearance and behavior, but don't have their own articles. One could argue that "Type-47 UHAP" only refers to the Halo 3 Scarab, while the others are different models whose formal designations are unknown. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 08:59, August 16, 2010 (UTC) | ::I'd say why not.

:::I would oppose such thing. There is not much information known about vehicle, or the mechanics of the weapon fired by all those vessels.

There is not much information known about vehicle, or the mechanics of the weapon fired by all those vessels.

True that ''"One could argue that "Type-47 UHAP" only refers to the Halo 3 Scarab"'', but the applied common word "Scarab" on all of these behemoths seems to suggest the designation does applies to all.- <font face="Century Gothic">[[User:Subtank|<font color="gold"><font color="#FF4F00">5</font>əb<font color="#FF4F00">'7</font>aŋk</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Subtank|<font color="#FF4F00">7alk</font>]])</sup></font> 09:19, August 16, 2010 (UTC) | ||
