The recent rename of the [[Battle of Reach]] to [[Fall of Reach]] reminded me of something I've been meaning to address for some time now.

As of now, the names of our battle articles are a mixed bunch. Most pages follow the "Battle of", "Raid on", "Assault on", etc. naming convention, and that's fine. However, we still have pages titled like [[Operation: TORPEDO]] or [[Operation: FIRST STRIKE]] that seem to contradict with the standard naming style. As explained by CommanderTony [[Talk:Battle of Ariel|here]], we should avoid naming battle articles by the name of the UNSC operation since as a wiki, our viewpoint should be as neutral as possible.

That said, there are exceptions like [[Operation: TREBUCHET]] or [[Operation: KALEIDOSCOPE]] that aren't battles in a sense and as such, the naming isn't that clear cut. That is, we shouldn't just go and rename every "[[operation]]" out there. But ones that are obviously battles, raids or assaults should follow the standard convention, with the name of the UNSC operation obviously mentioned on the page.
