Hey man,

I noticed you frequently like to add trivia to articles about what other things in the real world share the same name or appearance as the item/location/vehicle/weapon/other. You have done this on the following articles: Sparrow, Pike, Vandal, Hard Light, Gjallarhorn, Vex, Osiris, and The Cassini.

We should be a lot more hesitant to include this kind of trivia; usually, this is meaningless filler in most situations unless we hear in an interview or read in an article that this is an intentional reference by Bungie. It is no more relevant than the word's language of origin or the number of letters. In most cases, trivia should be interesting facts that are directly related to the Destiny itself or to Bungie (for example, see the Trivia sections on Moonbase or Hive), rather than being a coincidence in naming or appearance.

I'm going to be removing some of these trivia facts; please do not be offended -- we really do appreciate the edits. But unless we get confirmation that Bunge intended some kind of real-world reference, I do not think that they are relevant enough to be included. I hope you understand, and thanks once again for your help!
