Considering there is a huge Australian connection with Halo and Bungie the following trivia is important:

There is actually an Australian town called Dubbo in the State of New South Wales. Two ships in the Australian Navy are named after the town:

  • HMAS Dubbo (J-251/M-251) was a Bathurst class corvette sold for scrap in 1958
  • HMAS Dubbo (P-214) is a Fremantle class patrol boat.Wikipedia Dubbo Link
I don't think so. These things have nothing to do with Halo, and only by chance share the name "Dubbo" and I doubt the character was made in homage to there hardly-notable things. -ED 21:01, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
I'm not sure... Chips Dubbo's Australian, and so are the town and ships, so I'm not sure if it's a co-inky-dink or something more... guesty-persony-thingy 21:03, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
I higly doubt they chose to name a charachter for them, though. They're just not that well known, frankly. A homage is usually more obvious. -ED 21:17, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Well, this is Bungie we're talking about, and they can be pretty weird sometimes, but, unless a direct link is shown in Halo 3, it shouldn't be put in the article. guesty-persony-thingy 21:19, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
All right. We can leave it here on the talk page unless the link becomes more clear. -ED 21:21, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
