Name of this ship and others[edit]
Hmmm I think its a lil early to say for sure that all first ships of its class are what its class is called. For example are we 100% sure the first Halcyon was called the "UNSC Halcyon"? I mean sure Loftus' info is good for a ship naming page for all confirmed examples of that. But I aint 100% happy with us creating pages based on that alone. By all means the first ship could be a Tribute name for example. So I am here to say unless confirmed 100% we delete all the pages of ships that have no external source to remain safe on that regard.-CIA391 (talk) 18:24, 20 September 2018 (EDT)
