I added a diagram and label from Wikipedia about the different arms of the Milky Way. Its not perfect, but it adds to the article.

Perhaps some more info on the Covenant's activity in the Milky Way? And I'm sure the section about war was ripped from the UNSC article, and should be cleared up.

Why is there a grossly inaccurate fan-made "map" on the page? I thought halopedia wasn't supposed to be the place for speculation. The map is so inaccurate it makes me cry. | Why is there a grossly inaccurate fan-made "map" on the page? I thought halopedia wasn't supposed to be the place for speculation.

I especially like how he calls his knowledge "above average". This seems more like below average to me. Like many people, he doesn't realize how big the galaxy actually is, and how large the distances are. | I especially like how he calls his knowledge "above average".

:I included it as an estimate, even noting that it was fan-made and not exact, but I agree, the latter is more accurate.

::Yeah. I know that one. It's one of the best galactic maps out there. But yeah. My point was, the new map isn't good 'cause it's misleading. More uninformed people can still take it as a fact, as seen in the DA page. And Halopedia's purpose is to present facts, isn't it. The problem in the map isn't only the assumed locations of the unknown systems. It's also the locations of basically all of the real-world systems, epsilon eridani, epsilon indi and procyon just as examples. --[[User talk:Jugus|Jugus]] 09:13, 5 June 2009 (UTC) | ::Yeah.
