Reboot Continuity and Naming Conventions
In "rebooting" the Robotech storyline, Harmony Gold has apparently opted to abandon the traditional notion of rivalry between the Robotech Defense Force (RDF) and the Army of the Southern Cross in favor of a "United Earth Forces" (UEF) model. As a result, abbreviations have changed; for instance, in Palladium Books' Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles RPG, references that would formerly have been made to the RDF or Robotech Expeditional Force (REF) are now made to the UEDF or UEEF.

Famous quotes containing the words continuity, naming and/or conventions:
“Only the family, society’s smallest unit, can change and yet maintain enough continuity to rear children who will not be “strangers in a strange land,” who will be rooted firmly enough to grow and adapt.”
—Salvador Minuchin (20th century)
“The night is itself sleep
And what goes on in it, the naming of the wind,
Our notes to each other, always repeated, always the same.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“Art, it seems to me, should simplify. That, indeed, is very nearly the whole of the higher artistic process; finding what conventions of form and what detail one can do without and yet preserve the spirit of the whole—so that all that one has suppressed and cut away is there to the reader’s consciousness as much as if it were in type on the page.”
—Willa Cather (1873–1947)
