Why is it that on Halopedia I am unable to add logos and flags to the different sides and belligerents/groups of a conflict to add illustration and make the infobox presentable better. For example, i cannot add the logo/flag for the Unified Earth Government or UNSC in the 'Human-Covenant war' infobox because a copyright message replaces it instead! Yet on normal Wikipedia, you are perfectly allowed to placed flags and logos for different belligerents and armed militant groups involved in wars, for example, the logos/flags for all of the      militant groups in the Syrian civil war. Can someone tell me why this is pls?--[[User:Paulhalo121|Paulhalo121]] ([[User talk:Paulhalo121|talk]]) 05:31, 20 April 2016 (EDT)

:It should be something like these: [[File:Perfect White UNSC logo.png|20px]] [[File:UNSC insignia (post-war).png|20px]] [[File:SLoftus-CIV-UEG.png|23px]] [[File:Covenant LogoHD.png|20px]] [[File:Swords of Sanghelios symbol.png|25px]]. But we should have a debate on whether we need them in the first place. Many factions don't have a banner so the template may look irregular at times.

Why is it that on Halopedia I am unable to add logos and flags to the different sides and belligerents/groups of a conflict to add illustration and make the infobox presentable better. For example, i cannot add the logo/flag for the Unified Earth Government or UNSC in the 'Human-Covenant war' infobox because a copyright message replaces it instead! Yet on normal Wikipedia, you are perfectly allowed to placed flags and logos for different belligerents and armed militant groups involved in wars, for example, the logos/flags for all of the militant groups in the Syrian civil war. Can someone tell me why this is pls?--Paulhalo121 (talk) 05:31, 20 April 2016 (EDT)

It should be something like these: File:Perfect White UNSC logo.png UNSC insignia (post-war).png SLoftus-CIV-UEG.png Covenant LogoHD.png Swords of Sanghelios symbol.png. But we should have a debate on whether we need them in the first place. Many factions don't have a banner so the template may look irregular at times. Imrane-117 (talk) 08:09, 20 April 2016 (EDT)
