Suck at formatting but I have a way with words (I do write sci-fi if that helps) and I'd like to have a bash at educating the masses. Is it open editing?

It's open. I mostly keep "Weapons and Tactics" and the "Ship-Class" sections to myself as those are usually things that pertain to the mod balancing and design rather than sci-fi jargon.

However if you want to spice up the "Ship-Class" sections you can do that as long as it keeps their original message.

There is also the "History" section that is literally all Sci-fi text by Kheva you can edit or make new ones. I have no part in that.

Yeah, I may leave it as I'm reluctant to tread on people's toes. That said, I'll keep a weather eye open for gaps that need plugging!

EDIT: Also, guys... whoever's messing around with categories is doing it wrong. More specifically, it's backward (Example: Wiki Content was a subcategory of "People Behind the Mod", which a subcategory of KhevaKins)... Add Category is used to specify the category for that specific page

Sigh... Guys, if you're not going to cross check info before posting it on our wiki please don't contribute, you're just making us look like uneducated fanboys.

The Halcyon is not a fucking heavy cruiser. It's a light cruiser. It's the smallest cruiser to ever receive the designation in the UNSC.

I commented that on the wiki. I would of changed it but I didn't know how.

Also we need names for things everyone, mostly the structures. So the Civic and military research, the broadcast center, trade and metal buildings. Also the UNSC Constructor and trade ship.

My suggestion for sradeship was,  Privateer Navy Supply Ship a.k.a PNSS (Pins) or Privateer Supply Ship PSS (Piss) but they got shot down so I am asking you, the people. Preferably something with the word Privateer in it because I like that word :D .
Reference:http://www.halopedia...lian_cargo_ship

Secure Operations Transport Privateer? Because of Cole Protocol.

Edit:
We also need a new ones of these: http://i.imgur.com/w9K3nuS.png ,
Preferably in a SotP flavor, so the same thing but with SotP and the logo.

Also this:
http://www.sinsofthe...ld_space/bg.jpg , a new one.

Just wondering, why does privateer fit in any regard? Since privateers were pirates for hire that preyed on commercial shipping...

Going with the Greek theme, I'd probably choose something like Odyssey-Class Commercial Vessel

Fine, not privateer.

This.

Do you mean this as in you are agreeing that privateer doesn't bit or you want that to be the name, or both?
I was hoping for something with a catchy acronym.

If we are going Greek it could be Hermes.

Seems like that might have nailed it. I'm not too picky between Odyssey or Hermes, but I'm always in favor of the Greek theme.

PNSS = Penis. Never going to happen. Also privateer sounds nifty to someone who doesn't understand naval terms, but we're going with authenticity here, not what excites 15 year old kids with a loose awareness of naval words, but no understanding of their historical context, no offense. Please update the wiki. People see your penis ship.
