::The fact that many factions don't have flags, banners or symbols is the biggest obstacle. What do you put for the Free Peoples of Meridian? Or Venezia, which has no visual depictions? These are separate entities to the UEG and UNSC. Or for a group like Vata 'Gajat's mercenary group? Just putting a generic Covenant symbol might be misleading for a reader, who sees it and assumes they were still part of 'Mdama's Covenant. -- [[User:Morhek|<b><font color=indigo>Qura 'Morhek</font></b>]] [[w:c:halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>The Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>of Morheka</sup></font></i></u>]] 08:26, 20 April 2016 (EDT)

:::Not to mention it takes up space in the infobox that we should be preserving. Personally, I think it is fine without the flags. --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 10:08, 20 April 2016 (EDT)

:I understand that, but like Imrane-117 said and shown, the UNSC, UEG, covenant etc do have logos and they should be placed whenever there is one available. Surely they should be placed in infoboxes for major wars and battles, e.g. human-covenant war, battle of installation 04, 05 etc. Also, how does it take up space on the infobox when its just a small icon, it makes the infobox more presentable. Its always done on wikipedia conflict pages/infoboxes, so why not on here?--[[User:Paulhalo121|Paulhalo121]] ([[User talk:Paulhalo121|talk]]) 04:52, 21 April 2016 (EDT)
