==The Great Sangheili Reformation: An Analysis of Elite Ranks==
==Contributions (that I can remember)==


===Stand First===
[[File:TLJ Flood Ranged Form.png|200px]][[File:H2 Stealth Elite.png|180px]]


Editing is often like the principle of learning mathematics; you slowly build and build upon what you have already accomplished. Sometimes though, we've just gotta start all over again. This is the case with our current archiving of Sangheili ranks. For those who don't want a long read, a summary of my analysis exists in the image tables that I've uploaded (I've used a posterized elite for instances where a good quality, cropped image wasn't available). Otherwise, read on, because I intend to reference every rank and title and my subsequent categorizing of them with full sourcing. And if I can't find a source for something, then I will make a point of it.
Halo: Reach medal images. Halo: Reach rank images. Campaign Difficulty shield images. Various technology and architecture images. Numerous minor edits fixing things like broken links or spelling and grammar errors. A few major edits here and there.
 
===Standard Military===
 
[[File:TLJ Standard Military.png|thumb|right|300px|Standard Military]]I'll start with the basics of Minor, Major and Ultra by addressing what I'm certain is basic, in-universe nomenclature for the ranks.
 
I'm not sure how this fad of "Major Officers" as a sub-class came about, but in both Bungie's ''[[Halo: Reach]]'' and 343 Industries' ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary]]'', it is clear that Elite Majors and Officers are one and the same. This conclusion can be drawn by the apparent lack of regular Majors in the former, in tandem with the visual substitution of 2001 model Majors with 2011 model Majors in the latter video game.
 
It is my speculation that the usage of the word Officer was only favoured due to the simple nature of marketing. As the armour of the Elite Majors in ''Halo: Reach'' was being offered as a video game exclusive, a logically appealing name was required in order to generate interest for it and ultimately boost sales. Therefore the nomenclature of Officer, borrowed from Special Operations Officer as seen in ''[[Halo: The Flood]]'', was used.
 
Another noteworthy instance of Elite Majors, which strengthens the connection between Majors and Officers as a singular intermediate-echelon of enemy, exists in ''[[Halo 3]]''. Whenever Sangheili Majors are present, they are depicted in various shades of red, yet it would be ludicrous to argue that they are different ranks. A similar relationship can be identified in regard to the "regular-class of Majors" seen prior to ''Halo: Reach'' and "Officer sub-class" observed thereafter.
 
The Halo trilogy has even shown that across games, exact colour of armour associated with particular ranks can change. In ''Halo: Reach'', Bungie gave the Elites a new plethora of armour styles to identify them. As it happened, the Elite Major's red armour was given an orange tint. Possibly to make it easier to distinguish their new Zealots, which are of a similar red hue to that of previous ''Combat Evolved'' era Majors.
 
If the term Officer is synonymous to the term Major, then Trooper can likewise be synonymous to Minor. Which is supported by the usage of the word Trooper as a term for lower-echelon infantry in both Stealth Sangheili and Spec Ops ranks. What's interesting now, is if we look back to Spec Ops ranks and their present terminology, Trooper and Officer, in essence they are the Elite Minor and Elite Major of the Special Operations.
 
Yet I must digress, because unless the word Trooper came from a game, strategy guide, novel, an online field guide, ''[[Halo Waypoint]]'' or any other creditable source, it would appear that Trooper was a term created by Halopedians. In militaristic terms it is of course very befitting, but at the same time unfortunately, it is not at all official. If anyone can source usage of the term Trooper for lower-echelon infantry, please message me. I presume we use the term Trooper on the wikia for a good reason, but I'd feel better if there was proper citation for it.
 
I'm about to jump back onto the speculation train now, because I'd like to consider the possible connection between the term Commander and Elite Ultras. The single example of a Commander which I'm aware of is the Special Operations Commander, [[Rtas 'Vadumee]], of ''[[Halo 2]]'' and ''Halo 3'' fame.
