==Production notes==
The [[Halo Encyclopedia (2009 edition)|2009]] and [[Halo Encyclopedia (2011 edition)|2011]] editions of the Halo Encyclopedia put the 111 Tauri system as the Taurus system. Listing Victoria as a location on a planet named 111 Tauri. This was in direct conflict with [[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx]]. The [[Halo Encyclopedia (2022 edition)|2022]] edition of the Halo Encyclopedia rectified this issue by supporting Halo: Ghosts of Onyx depiction.
