Following your comment [[User:Tacitus|Tacitus]], perhaps we can all think of a more suitable name or use context sensitive names on redirect links, one that doesn't give the implication that separating from the Covenant was voluntary. Covenant separatists is the only name used in an official context (Halo Encyclopedia, which is now outdated) and was used in a Canon Fodder write up by GrimBrotherOne but he changed separatists to Sangheili rebels (https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/bounty-hunters). Perhaps Sangheili rebels is a suitable name?

:"Rebels" is more fitting than "separatists", but we also know that these groups had more than Sangheili in them; otherwise there would be no point in having them as a page separate from the [[Sangheili]] one. If I had to call the page something, the best I can come up with is "Great Schism rebels" or "Great Schism insurgents", which both limits the usage to the Great Schism (as the Covenant saw numerous rebel, insurgent and separatist movements over the course of its history) and removes the implication that they were Sangheili-exclusive. --[[User:Tacitus|Tacitus]] ([[User talk:Tacitus|talk]]) 14:56, March 27, 2019 (EDT) | :"Rebels" is more fitting than "separatists", but we also know that these groups had more than Sangheili in them; otherwise there would be no point in having them as a page separate from the [[Sangheili]] one.

Still, I would dispute the need to have an umbrella page for factions within such a narrow timeframe, considering that, for all we know many of the Covenant remnants post-war could well have had their origins in the Schism era. --[[User:Tacitus|Tacitus]] ([[User talk:Tacitus|talk]]) 14:56, March 27, 2019 (EDT) | ||
