UNSC of Halopedia Logo

Hey I was just wondering, why'd you change the image for the UoH invite template? Was there some discussion I missed? Phil.e. ^{[Talk to me]} 01:55, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

I was being bold as they say on Wikipedia. The other version was a black-on-white stuck on a black background, and not very friendly to the eyes. The white-on-black inverted version is a little weird, but much easier on the eyes when set on a black background. Just my take, though. Trying to help. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 05:52, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

IP invite

um, thanks, but I already have an account. that was just me on my mom's computer.  ;-) thanks, though. --Charles II 00:36, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Oh, I've just been inviting every IP that hasn't been invited already. Sorry for the inconvenience. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 02:44, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

No problem. just letting you know. ;-) --Charles II 02:53, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

Why? I think it works fine. Also, why Marathon? We should try to move most of that stuff out to Pfhorpedia, anyway. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 17:16, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

Why Move The Halo CE stuff out of halopedia?? --þ†öW讥 ^{^ (UNSC Fleetcom)(UNSC History)(UNSC Mision Log)} 22:26, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

No, just Marathon. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 22:31, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Question

Hi, I noticed that it seems "Bureaucrats" were renamed to "Cabalists". Do you think you could explain how that was able to be changed? Thanks. (You can reply here.)   jj137 (talk) 21:36, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

I don't know. Ask User:Guesty-Persony-Thingy or User:RelentlessRecusant. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 21:55, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok, thanks   jj137 (talk) 17:07, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Halo-halo and Wikipedia attribution

I brought over a template from a Wikia I'm a bureaucrat on to help out in cases like this. It's used in the way you tried to use the Central Wikia's attribution template, only it's local. I grudgingly removed {{delete}} from Halo-halo since I'm not expecting it will be deleted anymore. --Coredesat 01:55, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. I got a bit confused on the usage. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 03:35, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Inappropriate forum title.

Hi Blemo! There is a forum title on the Halo: Combat Evolved section of the forum titled the95headhunter is a b**** (without putting the asterisks to cover the rude-word up).

The forum link can be found below and I was wondering if you could take any action against it:

Monitor/Installation Numbering

Dear Dragonclaws, I was directed to you by User:Spartan G-23 about the numbering of Monitors to Installations. I had thought this topic had already been cleared up, but if you could help us on this issue again, I'd be delighted. I myself thought that the numbering for the Monitor's corresponding to their Installation was this: Monitor#Trivia. And I thought, on this discussion page, this issue was resolved, but... for some reason Spartan G-23, still believes the Monitor's number for Installation 02 should be 14. -TheLostJedi 23:43, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

I'd be happy to discuss it further. Where? --Dragonclaws^(talk) 05:36, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

This talk page is where the discussion is at. Your views on the topic will be appreciated, thank you again. -TheLostJedi 21:44, 01 November 2007 (UTC)

RE: ilovebees Paragraph

Dear Dragonclaws,

Well, according to modern scientific nomenclature, this cryptic paragraph refers to a specific article in a scholarly journal: Journal of Higher Dimensional Physics, Volume 49, Pages 264-575, published in 2079, at least in my experience with biology-related scholarly literature. :P From what I can make of it from my limited understanding of physics and quantum mechanics, this paper appears to describe a mechanism by which Shaw and Fujikawa have been able to appropriately control D-branes in order to control the quantum strings bound by these D-branes, and thus effect the vibrations of these strings and possibly even the particles dictated by these string vibrations. This has some unknown connection to Slipspace, probably, possibly explaining the electromagnetic anomalies of particles moving at high speeds? O_o

Query

I'm just curious on a subject I've written a few weeks ago, specifically concerning a potential mistake in Contact Harvest. The details are on both the main page and talk page of the Epsilon Indi System page. I don't have the ability to contact Mr. Staten, but I'm curious if any of the admins know what to do. Thanks for your time. Regards, P03 James 01:12, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Try posting in the forums here. Bungie reads that sometimes. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 01:16, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Hey Dragonclaws. I started a new project:User:Spartan781/Project 2. Check that page out, the prototype article, read it all, and state if you disapprove or approve of the new article to be rolled out. Thanks!--Spartan-781 ^Comm_CSV 13:41, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Heys! I gots an ideas!

Hey DC, good to see you again, hey while I was gone I came up with a great idea that could benifit the wiki community. I came up with the idea of a new Usergroup/Community Team for Halopedia, Halopedias very own Forge team! Now before I go on understand that I know about the policys and rules about this so consider this to be an idea(just like the Monitors of Halopedia) to be approved by you and the other admins. Basicly this would be a group of any number of individuals with a leader/organizer. Screening would included so not everyone joins. the rules would be that you need to have a basic knowledge of forge, have a good working knowledge on how to make FAIR,FUN, and EXCITING maps. Noone who makes maps for a single person or team would be accepted. People who wiss to join would send me(if it is OK that I be founder and leader,open to suggestion btw) an application on 1.Why they want to join and why they think they would benifit the community. 2. Examples of maps they have made. pics or vids would be great. and 3. If they have a particular role or job they would wiss to have such as Sandtrap only maps,etc. Anyways as I have said this is an Idea to be approved as this is also sent to the other admins. If you have any questions regarding this, contact me. BTW, good to see you again, I finally got unblocked! yay! WRAITH 21:24, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

UoH Legion Medal

Hey. I just dropped by to ask if I am applicable for another UoH Legion Medal (The one awarded for every 1000 mainspace edits). I have 2000 already. So am I applicable for the medal?--Spartan-781 ^Comm_CSV 10:49, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Nice to join you guys.

Hey Dragon, I was actually thinking of joining this site for quite some time. I got your invite last night while browsing this on my PSP.

Anyways, I am quite a nut when it comes to the history of the Halo universe and absorb all information about it like a sponge. I look forward to helping out as much as I possibly can in the articles and on the forums.

Thanks for your invite, I am glad im wanted =P.

My name on this site is OrexxerO and my real name is Dustin. Cya all around.

Hi, OrexxerO. We're always happy to get new members. I look forward to your contributions. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 23:56, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Forge Team of Halopedia

I was wondering if you or any of the other Admins have thought this over yet. The previous message with most of the details is titled "Heys I Gots Ideas!" if you have not yet read it. Please tell me what you think at your earliest convienence. BTW sorry to be a pest, but I just am trying to find out as the community is more focused on other forum topics than this. WRAITH 21:58, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I've been busy. I personally am not a fan of these hierarchy-based usergroups where certain users have greater power and such. I think a more free wiki-typical group where people would enter a position to accept more responsibilities based on their merits (i.e. contributions) rather than an arbitrary system of ranks would fare better, my main opposition to the CoH, UoH, ect. Other than that, I like the idea of a Forge group in theory. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 07:49, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the message Dragonclaws. I am now a member of wikipedia. I will be happy to fix any errors found in any article.

P.S hope you enjoy Atlanta!

Sorry

Dragonclaws,

Sorry about the screwup on the CHRYSANTHEMUM article. Just to let you know, i do know that Project CHRYSANTHEMUM was a UNSC project. I just wanted to move it to "Project: CHRYSANTHEMUM", and I didn't know that would automatically change it to "Halopedia:".

Again, sorry about that,
Stryker117File:UNSCoH Dingo without letters.PNG 01:04, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Ah, okay. I couldn't see that in the history. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 01:58, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Right, because "Project:" is a universal Wikia namespace that automatically changes to the name of the wiki. That way they can make default pages. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 05:05, 4 December 2007 (UTC)

Chicken Article

Sorry for making you delete it twice, I had gone in to add the "delete|reason" to the original page but by the time I finished it you had already deleted it so it made a new page instead. Gado 17:24, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

H:NOT

I put some ideas about Halopedia censorship in the General Disclaimer, should it be moved to H:NOT? --EDFile:ArmyROTC.gif 19:20, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, the disclaimer seems more a warning to the viewers, while the HP:NOT is a guide for writers. I could see both remaining as they are. *shrugs* --Dragonclaws^(talk) 19:42, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

Problems Uploading

Hello, Dragonclaws. I was told to come to an administrator if I was having problems uploading an image. I need some help because an image I treid to upload will not upload. I get the message that the file is corrupt or that there is an incorrect extension. I saved the image I wanted on microsoft word, clicked on browse, found it, and selected that it is for my userpage under liscencing, but I got that message instead of a successful upload. Need some clarification, Covenant Ghost 04:35, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Did you try to upload the Word document? You'd need the actual image file, and also I don't think you can upload bitmaps (.bmp). You can save the file in an acceptable format (.png works well, but also .jpeg/.jpg and .gif) using a graphics program like Microsoft Paint. If that doesn't answer your question, please rephrase. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 08:54, 16 December 2007 (UTC)

Main Page Weekly Poll?

Fan Art Committee

Dear Dragonclaws,

Was just bring to your attention the Fan Art Committee (FAC). I was speaking to users @ the IRC, and I was critiquing a particular article when I noticed the main image was fan art. I asked why they'd placed it there and the response was it was approved by the FAC.

Sir, with respect -- I think no fan material in any form should be permitted on Halopedia. Halopedia is a place for canonical material, not for fan material. I ask if the FAC may be disbanded and fan art be immediately removed.

Regards,

RelentlessRecusant 'o the Halopedia Team ^TALK • _MESSAGE 04:33, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

I would disagree. Fanart can provide useful illustration at times. I would place restriction on it so that everything follow canon, but not condemn the lot. My opinion. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 08:03, 25 December 2007 (UTC)

Nice to meet (not really meet but you know what I mean) you. I have two questions...(1.Are there any userboxes on this site? (2.I saw the sword box type thing at the very top left cornor of your userpage could I put one on my page only with the Spartan signale in the box?

Halo Emblems

Not to sound deperate but can you help with the emblem thing I asked about I can't do it on my computer because it is too slow? If you can do this for me I want the Spartan emblem with the primary color blue, secondary color silver (or maybe it is some kind of metal color but it looks like silver), player color 1 red, and player color 2 gold. If you can do this it would be great and if you can't or don't want to that's fine. Thanks for answering my questions.The Master Chief-117 00:07, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

CoH Elections

Dear Dragonclaws,

My name is Ew C 'Dnaudee, I wanted you to know that i voted for you as a Councilor, and have faith in you to be a good Councilor based on your edit count and your experience here. I was wondering if you became a Councilor, how often would you check the Promotions page? As well as being on Halopedia, do you go on every day? Thank you for your time, it is much appreciated,EwCDnaudee 20:54, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

I may not be the best choice for Councilordom, actually. I haven't participated in CoH as I'm not a fan of its hierarchal structure. What exactly is the Promotions page? I try to check Halopedia as often as I can, but I've gotten busy because of class and I don't always make edits. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 22:55, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Ok, forget it. You dont have any idea about what im trying to say... its ok dont worry about it. Maybe you could help me with my profile, how do you align userboxes? If you take a look at my userpage you will see that there is a large gap between my last 2 userboxes and the rest. Any ideas for helping me?? Can you fix it for me??EwCDnaudee 23:09, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

The thought struck me, but I figured I'd try to answer. I'm not quite sure what the problem with your userboxes is, but it seems to work by rearranging the order. It somehow conflicts with the infobox, possibly having some to do with the sizes not matching up. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 23:21, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Wow, thanks. I didnt think it was that easy :) anyway thanks for the help, i appreciate it. Ill be in touch buddy,EwCDnaudee 08:16, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Article Names

Why is it that we rename Brute to Jiralhanae, but when I try to move Brute Chieftain to Jiralhanae Chieftain, it gets reverted? Çya, Møuse 04:44, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Because the real name for "Brute" has explicitly been stated to be "Jiralhanae", and "Jiralhanae Chieftain" unless mentioned explicitly is regarded as speculation. If there's some mention in CH, I'd add a source next to the title. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 08:08, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Unban

I need you to unban me on Halofanon, I've been banned for a week, by the prosecuter Ajax, his reasons for banning me were luticrus. So far, its been three days, here are my reasons for me being unbanned.

(NOTE: When I saw you or you're or yours, im refering to Ajax)

• This is my second warning. Not the third.

• I've acted this way for a long time, and you had no problem, is it coinsidence that you chose now?

• You only banned Dark Energy for 1 day for cussing straight at you, im not cussing at you, and yet you banned me for a week.

• Don't act like you haven't treated users this way.

• If you just heard, I backed off of the arguement temporarily, yet you still banned me.

• I was making a point, nothing more.

• If you were going to ban me at all, why didn't you do it yesterday, when it aaaaaaaaaaalll got worse.

• The users involved in your project dissed me, dissed me in my face, why not ban them instead?

• I wasn't cussing at you, I was just sayin it. Yet you couldn't help yourself.

• The Civility rule says Be civil towards others, I was being civil toward you, I just happened to swear a few times (But not in your face, nor insultingly), yet you still banned me.

• Johnson knows this, I did say "I'm Starting to see your point, but I'm not surrendering to it." I didn't give up my reasons, I gave up arguing with you, and your ridiculous excuses, it was over, you had your way, your real reason to ban me, AND YOU STILL BANNED ME!!

• You did as a matter of fact say: Nogard is stupid (Nogard), This article is reallly stupid (Kashan), Nogard is horrendously godmodded (Yet he's a villian, as you said, you could godmod villians). So why didn't you get punished, hell, why are you even an admin with this attitude!?

• You didn't even say Shut up or i'll ban you or anything like that. It says on the whole adminship thing to give a specific warning before a ban. If you've been banned before, and you did something not that serious, how would you feel to be banned and claimed to be warned a long time ago for different reasons!?

• When Dark Energy requested an unban, you listened, why not me!? HE DID ALOT WORSE!!

• Don't pretend you didn't get this message, I checked your contributions.

He's been ignoring my messages for all three of these days, I need to be unbanned NOW!--Bugger| ^{Bug Me}_{| Bugged} 00:55, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

RE:Stubs

I only add stubs to articles that need them. If there are some that didn't need stubs, then I apologize for the inconvenience.

Purity of Spirit

I really hope you can point out a source for me - I'm just worried someone's copied my fanon article, Purity of Spirit. As far as I can tell, the link appeared on the Covenant article - and then it was created from that link. But the mention was never referenced, and I don't remember it being in the Cortana Letters.

Just hoping I haven't inadvertantly given someone ammunition to throw at our site.
