[edit] Rosenborg?

I believe the proper title for this article should be Doctor Stanley Rosenberg, with of course Dr. Stanley Rosenberg and Dr. Rosenberg redirecting too. However, I don't really know how to fix this.

Also, I don't recall where Rosenberg's first name is ever given. Where did Stanley come from? MarphyBlack 03:15, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

I was wondering that myself. Isn't that also the name of the Lawyer from Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and San Andreas? --Rim-Fire 17:57, 7 May 2006 (UTC)
This is still a burning issue with me. I simply can't find any verification from any source that his first name is Stanley. I am attempting to contact Randy Pitchford, president of Gearbox and writer for the HL expansion packs, so I can ask him the question myself. I'll report here if successful.

[edit] Plot expansion

I added sections detailing Rosenberg's role in Decay and Blue Shift. Hopefully it looks okay, as editing in the wee hours of the morning doesn't do good for my grammer and spelling. Anyway, I know that right now it seems like a big chunk of text. I'm hoping I can add a screenshot of Rosenberg in Decay when he's contacting the marines, as I think it would break up the big hunk of text a little and it would illustrate the event of the HECU being contacted, a significant event in the HL storyline. Now, I just have to figure out how I'm going to capture a screenshot from a PS2 game... MarphyBlack 07:59, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rosenberg's first name

Through some very slow and tedious research, I have found that the name "Stanley" originated from a dead Half-Life mod called Escape Velocity. However, this name was simply made up for the mod. Rosenberg's first name was never revealed in any of the games, hence the article move. MarphyBlack 17:19, 22 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Return?

I've met many people who liked Dr. Rosenburg. Does anyone know if there is any possiblity mentioned as to a return in an Episode?

This is not a forum, please post this elsewhere, on a fan forum of the game, etc. JTBX (talk) 22:59, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
