:::Yessir, I agree with using "Mark.06" for the official English designation. (Dodgy punctuation aside. I've never seen a period used like that outside of "loljapan". Is there a precedent for the usage anywhere?) "Rokugouki" still belongs here as the official Japanese version, as opposed to MAAKU SHIKKUSU in katakana or something. --[[User:Reichu|Reichu]] 19:11, 28 February 2011 (UTC)

The article mentions that the internal power source is "motive energy". Wouldn't it make more sense to say that it has a power source similar to a S<sup>2</sup> engine?

Designation

I know "Evangelion Unit-06" was used in the preview from 1.XX, but they seem to have switched to "Mark.06" starting with the initial 2.0 publicity poster. I suppose it would be worth doing a full investigation of the movie and post-2.0-release official sources to see how we should treat the Eva's designation on the Wiki. That is, is "Mark.06" simply an alternate form for "Evangelion Unit-06 / Eva-06", or is it a full-out replacement? --Reichu 20:18, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

I've since noticed that "Rokugouki" is still used in the Q preview, so it looks like "Mark.06" isn't a full replacement after all. --Reichu 14:26, 28 February 2011 (UTC)
