 (reset indent) The Great Schism was a conflict that began concurrently with the Covenant War and continued after. As this article is soley about conflicts that arose '''after''' the war, the Great Schism should not be added ("Ongoing Great Schism" isn't even an official name so it shouldn't be used anyway). Also Editorguy, please [[Halopedia:Manual of Style#Avoid making multiple edits in an article|don't make multiple edits]].--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 13:02, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
-::"Ongoing Great Schism" Isn't an official name. I think the official name for the conflict should be "Sangheili-Jiralhane war". That is what it is as described in The Return. The shipmaster also refers to it as a species wide conflict, calling the enemies Brutes/Jiralhanae opposed to just a splinter faction (like Jul's faction or Lydus's faction).
-*(source 3: "It was a terrible war. The Prophets provided the Brutes with powerful new weapons, hoping that they would in turn defend their Prophets against our wrath. But when the Prophets went into hiding, the lack of leadership allowed the Brutes to return to their savage nature and they soon began to fight against each other. This lack of solidarity made them much easier prey. Some of my fellow commanders continue that fight even now" Halo: The Return)
 I do not think the ongoing conflicts between the Sanghieli and the Jiralhane are a part of the Great Schism. The Great Schism was a fight between the Elites (led by the Arbiter) and the Covenant (led by the Prophets). No. 1, The Jiralhane were merely the muscle the prophets put in between the elites and themselves. No. 2, the Elites were fighting the ''Covenant''. In many ways a possible continuation of the Great Schism much closer resembles the fight between the Swords of Sanghielios and 'Mdama's Covenant than between the Elites and the Brutes, as both the Great Schism and the Arbiter's conflict with 'Mdama were largely religious in nature, whereas the current fight between Elites and Brutes is largely cultural, strategic, and based on old grudges. I do think this page deserves a section on the continued animosity, and occasional violence between the two species. --[[User:Weeping Angel|Weeping Angel]] ([[User talk:Weeping Angel|talk]]) 21:09, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
-:: I agree completely, the conflict between the two species is an important part of the events that happen after the Human-Covenant war and is still ongoing as of 2559.
 The Schism continued despite the collapse of the Covenant, all that is left of the Covenant are the Jiralhanae led forces still fighting. The war between 'Mdama and 'Vadam is merely a civil war between two factions, not the continuation of the Schism since they are not fighting about religion, they are fighting for control. But I understand where you are coming from. [[User:Alertfiend|Alertfiend]] - [[Blue Team|Team Chief]] 21:23, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
