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.
I didn't even think Penis, I legitimately only saw Pins. What name do you want instead?

I am setting up most of the base work and place holders at the moment and so I need more names. People need to get more active with this 
.
Keeping with the Greek/Mythological theme for names here are some suggestions for the Civilian and military research stations, sourced from some other people:
Military
Prometheus
Ares
Sparta
Civillian
Athena (either)
Apollo
Minerva
Eidyia
Metis
Frigate Ship construction yards.
(name here, capital) Heavy Construction Yard and (name here, frigate) Construction Yard
Kulla
Musdamma
Ptah
Mamaldi (my choice for one)
Asgard
Midgard
Svadilfari and/or Hrimthurs

Maybe contractors would be better for shipyard names:

After deliberation it has been decided structures will be named after Halo corporations.
Here is a complete, comprehensive list:
Those with multiples could use combinations, so Vyrant/Atlas Intersystem Communications
Broadcast center
Ship Yard
Also this is everything that still needs names:
Metal Extractor • Crystal Extractor • UNSC Construction Yard • UNSC Heavy Construction Yard • Military Lab • Civics Lab • Trade Port • Broadcast Center • Orbital Refinery • Anchor Station Repair Platform • Phase Jump Inhibitor • Shield Generator • Proximity Mine Field • Titan Foundry •
Tactical: SMAC Station • Sabre project hangar •UNSC Construction Drone

Yeah the Eion is a canon ship modeled after the UNSC Musashi, not fanon.

We need a main page like the Halo wikia has.
http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page
Someone get on that and you'll get digital cookies from me. Probably an Xmas present too.

Oh how I wish I could do something like that. But the idea of me creating a webpage is pretty laughable, I'm still wondering how I was able to set up my internet for the 360.

I'd like to point out that these
aren't from Greek mythology.
Also, just to clarify, do you want us to invent a name for those structures you listed below your post, a Mythological name, or do you want us to choose from what you've linked? Or am I completely off the track?

I'd like to try to find an appropriate name for these structures using in-lore assets, like those military contractors. If we don't come up with a good one for something, it would be best to pull it from Greek mythology/history/warfare.

I'm in favour of industry names for construction yards (one of the few things I can remember about a Halo 3 was TRAXUS plastered across every spare inch) and mythology for tech stations. Athena for at least one, and if you really want to be cheeky go Athena for Civic and Minerva for Military. Before anyone corrects me I'm going off the premise that the Roman versions of the Greek Gods were more martial and ordered, not the strongest case I know, but it works.

On a side note unrelated to the wiki.
Shouldn't our Moddb be moved to Rebellion by now?

Asked Canada to do it this morning. I'm sure he will as soon as he has time.

It doesn't say the eion is fanon, it says the class name is. It would seem I haven't been clear enough about that. There is no reference to 'Eion' meaning it would generically be called 'Carrier' if we were to follow canon to the letter.

I've been in favor of incorporating companies into the UNSC for a long damn time. Can't wait to see a brand plastered on everything.

That is what I have began doing, it is slow going though :\
Edit:
We named almost all the structures. Just:
Repair Platform • Phase Jump Inhibitor • Shield Generator • Proximity Mine Field • Titan Foundry
Left to name so if you want to contribute to the SotP lore act now.

Perhaps the Titan Foundry can be something like "Oort Cloud Shipyard" since that's where the Infinity was built?

I was thinking that except it wouldn't make sense if you were to built the Infinity in the, say, Reach gravity well.
You know, I think I have just about finished the Main page 
. When we get the other factions I'll add a faction template in but I think it turned out pretty sexy, as Mr. Unikraken requested. So, do I get a present?
Edit:I need someone who knows how to do it to come in and add catergories to pages. I'd do it myself but last time I did things got... screwy (page linked to category. Then another page, then a category. Inside is page linked to the first page. PageCeption) so I don't really want to do it. Sloose buddy, you were doing that kind of thing, you want to take a swing?
