-Hi guys, i'm just wondering why we called the site Destinypedia in the first place. I mean in the 'Destinypedia's about page' it says that they've been using the name since December 2011?

 :Because the owner of this site is also owner of http://halopedia.org. Thus its pretty logical for the site to be called destinypedia. [[User:Sgtfrankieboy|Sgtfrankieboy]] ([[User talk:Sgtfrankieboy|talk]]) 17:13, 20 February 2013 (EST)
+I can note that destiny.wikia was the first (created on May 23, '12), followed by destinypedia.wikia (created on September 19, '12) and now this wiki (domain registered on November 28, '12). This is all publicly-available information. As for why "destinypedia", it's a common naming convention to use "{GAME}pedia". I've made several suggestions with regards to changing the wiki name to something of unique identity in my previous comment but no one has replied yet.  — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 21:17, 20 February 2013 (EST)
