:Could we make a template, say something similar to [[wikipedia:Template:Hang on|the "hang on" template]] on Wikipedia, so that it says "This image, while unused, is <good-quality/is already being used/should be used in an article>". Then, we could make a category similar to [[Special:Wantedpages]] that would show images that needed to be added into articles. The template could also be added onto the Era images, etc, so they don't get deleted.

While I understand what you were doing on the [[Battle of Viery]] article, I would like to bring a similar event to your attention.
During the [[Battle of Hat Yai]], Covenant ships exited Slipspace once their assistance was required.
Based on this, we can assume that these ships were at the very least nearby when the battle commenced, which may suggest that the Covenant may keep some ships within slipspace to avoid advertising their true size.
It is also interesting to note that during the [[Battle of Onyx]], the Covenant reinforcements arrive just before the UNSC defeats them.
Similarly, the Covenant supercarrier ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'' during the [[Fall of Reach]] only made itself known once the UNSC began to cut into the Covenant outposts. Again in that battle, it was not until the supercarrier was destroyed and its accompanying corvette sent into slipstream space that the fleet made itself known. In the corvette's control room, you can see symbols over the planet Reach - I believe these to represent the co-ordinates that each ship is preparing to jump to.
Would this be considered a common-enough Covenant action to be considered a genuine military strategy of theirs?-- [[User talk:Forerunner|Forerunner]] 09:27, 20 December 2010 (EST)
