Covenant empire symbol
Shouldn't the article be using ? Or at least display it? 98.24.14.97 09:33, 18 May 2013 (EDT)

Furthemore, shouldn't there be an article on the various covie glyphs we see? Not the forerunner ones, but like the ones seen on ghosts, wraiths and the weapons. 98.24.14.97 09:35, 18 May 2013 (EDT)


 * As discussed here, it's been determined that that glyph does not actually stand for the Covenant but actually for its vehicles, and that it changes throughout the games. Tuckerscreator (stalk ) 18:37, 18 May 2013 (EDT)


 * I might as well point out that I have seen this glyph on other Covenant devices besides their vehicles. So, it could be considered the symbol of the Covenant Empire. -- Xamikaze330  [Transmission |Commencing ] 15:16, 19 February 2014 (EST)Xamikaze330

I think this ( http://imgur.com/a/SaO1V ) might be the closest thing we now have for a symbol of the Covenant Empire. Lord Susto 01:35, 29 July 2015 (EDT)
 * The second one down does match, or is at least very similar to, the Covenant emblem in Halo 4 and Halo: The Master Chief Collection. Sith Venator Mega Blastoise.gif ( Dank Memes ) 01:39, 29 July 2015 (EDT)

I will be changing the picture once I get a better resolution picture of the covenant flag the letters of which are seen below and on Sunaion. --The Master Builder (talk) 16:24, 29 July 2015 (EDT)


 * I agree, we should get a symbol/flag for the main image ASAP as a counterpart to how the UNSC article uses a symbol. Preferably, we'll have confirmation on it first, maybe when H5 comes out? The dark and grainy Halo Wars images just doesn't cut it - especially since only Elites and Banshees are represented. (I took the liberty of turning The Master Builder's image into a thumb so it doesn't obliterate the screen.)--1221751884 I-animated-this-for-you.gifEnder the Xenocide 1221751884 I-animated-this-for-you.gif 15:05, 18 August 2015 (EDT)

I much prefer the current image, if we are to change it I suggest we vote on it. Alertfiend (talk) 22:20, 8 September 2015 (EDT)


 * I put up the current image, but never really liked it; it's merely the closest we had to something high-graphics that shows the multitude of their species and technology. If the above is the new Covenant symbol, which seems likely based on the UNSC juxtaposition, then that works instead. Tuckerscreator (stalk ) 03:17, 9 September 2015 (EDT)

Since we have the triangular characters that represent the covenant I think we should change the picture of this and Jul's covenant pic to that of the triangular glyphs that officially represent the covenant. They have been seen in halo fleet battles, a replica of truth and Reconciliation and on Sunaion as the flag of the Covenant. The current pic only shows the Sangheili and there is no reason why the UNSC should have its actual faction logo but the covenant should not. --The Master Builder (talk) 07:55, 9 September 2015 (EDT)


 * I actually prefer the current image because it shows the Covenant's power and tenacity real well. But if the decision is to change the image to what The Master Builder has proposed, I'm fine with that.-- 17:29, 9 September 2015 (EDT)


 * The image TMB proposed is currently a photoshoped recreation and not the actual thing, besides I agree with Tucker, the current image conveys the power of the former covenant, use it for Jul's covenant. One more thing, how do we know it means Covenant? it could mean For Victory.Alertfiend (talk) 18:48, 9 September 2015 (EDT)

Founding?
The Halo 4 Interactive Guide says it was founded 5000 years ago not 3000. Retcon?Councilor &#39;Rumilee (talk) 14:36, 19 February 2014 (EST)
 * I would probably say mistake or typo. Sith-venator Wavingstrider Fett helmet.jpg ( Commlink ) 14:42, 19 February 2014 (EST)
 * All the other sources we have indicate the 3,000 year mark. As Sith said, it's probably a mistake or typo.-- 15:03, 19 February 2014 (EST)
