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)

-:The page itself ([[Unified Earth Government]]) is named "Unified". I do believe "Unified is the correct way. The cases where "United" is used I believe to be mistakes, as the novel ''Glasslands'' names the President of the UEG as President of the Unified Earth Government.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}}
