If there are two or more subjects with the same name, it is necessary to disambiguate the article titles from one another. When disambiguating titles with bracketed addendums, in-universe subjects should always be treated as primary; for example, the page for the Covenant ship is titled ''[[Long Night of Solace]]'', while the level of the same name is disambiguated as ''[[Long Night of Solace (level)]]''. Note that exceptions to this policy can be made if the real-world subject is considerably more notable than its canonical counterpart; an example of this would be the titling of the real-world [[343 Industries]] and [[343 Industries (manufacturer)]] which, while an in-universe subject, is too obscure and canonically insignificant in comparison to the real company to take precedence. If two or more in-universe subjects share the same name, the more notable subject should be treated as primary; for example, the article title for the | If there are two or more subjects with the same name, it is necessary to disambiguate the article titles from one another.

Separate disambiguation pages with the addendum ''"(disambiguation)"'' are used when there are more than two articles with the same title, with a link to the disambiguation page placed on top of the "primary" (i.e. non-disambiguated) article with that name. | Separate disambiguation pages with the addendum ''"(disambiguation)"'' are used when there are more than two articles with the same title, with a link to the disambiguation page placed on top of the "primary" (i.e. non-disambiguated) article with that name. | ||
