Talk:Signal Alfa Lima

When you go to the source of the signal, you find a skeleton wearing a dress lying on the ham radio. The locked door has a skeleton with a bobby pin on it. It would appear that the woman locked herself in to get away from the guy, and sent out an SOS while he tried to lock pick his way in. Think this should be mentioned? —ErzengelLichtes (Contribs) 07:15, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

I removed the following section from the article. Being an English speaking person I can say that I have no idea what the author of this section is talking about. Alpha is the proper spelling of the word. It is how you spell the Greek letter Alpha from which this is all based upon. I frankly wonder what the author was thinking.

"Note: Alfa is how the English Alpha is spelled in the NATO phonetic alphabet, the most widely used phonetic alphabet. Numerous non-English speaking countries (i.e., the majority of NATO) spell it this way, so even English-speaking recipients write it "Alfa" in recognition of the standard, if they are using it."

 * The note is correct. It's incredibly random and doesn't have much to do with the article, but it's still correct. Try reading the statement again and then clicking on the link. Mr. Sully 03:17, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Player home
This place is confirmed by me to be available as a player home. The containers do not respawn, so safe keeping is ideal. And there is a bed. Very ideal home. (The funny hat) 6-26-09

Page Title needs to be changed back to Signal Alfa Lima
I know someone moved it a while back to Alpha Lima; but it appears in the game (at least, it does in MINE) as Alfa Lima, which is not an unacceptable spelling anyway (which was the reason for changing it in the first place). I'd move it myself, but I don't know how.70.121.211.242 20:23, 11 July 2009 (UTC)

The correct spelling
The correct spelling as used by the NATO/international phonetic alphabet is ALFA http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICAO_spelling_alphabet

OK?


 * We use the in-game spelling, which is "Alpha."--Gothemasticator 21:08, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually, we should get some confirmation on that, since a user above reports in-game spelling as "Alfa." Anyone in a position to check their PipBoy for spelling on the radio stations display? Thanks.--Gothemasticator 21:22, May 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * I feel like I would remember if that was the spelling, but I'm not positive.Warriors004 00:06, May 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * It's spelled ALFA in my game. --Anon undefined 00:25, May 19, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, then, it's settled. I'm moving the page to correct spelling. Thanks, all.Gothemasticator 04:29, May 19, 2010 (UTC)
