Although I do agree with the moving of "The Ark" to "The Ark (level)", I disagree with this instance. The redirection of "Delta Halo" to "Installation 05" is too vague in the particular context you have described for several reasons. One, is that Installation 05 is rarely, if not never referred to as "Delta Halo" in-canon, only so through the level's title; the term "Delta Halo" is more used by fans to differentiate it from "Halo". In that respect, it is more likely for people to be searching for the level rather than the installation. For those looking for the installation, we use "Were you looking for ___?" for a reason, and avoids any possible confusion for those looking for the installation. - [[User:Halo-343|<span style="color: purple; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 128%;">'''Halo-343'''</span>]] [[User talk:Halo-343|<font color="red"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Talk'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] [[Special:Contributions/Halo-343|<font color="orange"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Contribs'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] [[Special:Editcount/Halo-343|<font color="green"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Edits'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] 14:13, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

:You may be right, although the main reason I moved it is because of [http://halo.wikia.com/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Delta+Halo&namespace= THIS]; it would require dozens of link changes in articles. I'm not sure, really. The disambig header works though, but it would also work in the [[Installation 05]] article, linking to the level. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 14:22, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

::That is a ''lot'' of links. I'm not so sure either now, although maybe Nicbot could sort it out? I don't know, but I just think it would be better if "Delta Halo" referred to the level, although judging by that sheer amount of links, it may prove to be difficult. - [[User:Halo-343|<span style="color: purple; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 128%;">'''Halo-343'''</span>]] [[User talk:Halo-343|<font color="red"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Talk'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] [[Special:Contributions/Halo-343|<font color="orange"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Contribs'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] [[Special:Editcount/Halo-343|<font color="green"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Edits'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] 14:28, July 18, 2010 (UTC)
