Why is it that we rename [[Brute]] to [[Jiralhanae]], but when I try to move [[Brute Chieftain]] to [[Jiralhanaea Chieftain]], it gets reverted? <span title="I am not an employee of Wikia.">Çya</span>, [[w:c:halo:User:Mouse among men|<font color="black">M</font>]][[w:c:halo:User talk:Mouse among men|<font color="black">ø</font>]][[Special:Contributions/Mouse among men|<font color="black">u</font>]][[w:c:halo:Halopedia:Parasite of Halopedia|<font color="black">s</font>]][[w:c:halo:User:Mouse among men/Sandbox|<font color="black">e</font>]] 04:43, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

:We go on the most proper names avaliable. Despite the fact that the Halo 3 manuals and as campaigns make it abundantly clear that "Jiralhanae" is the true name for the Brutes, Brute units are still always referred to as "Brute Minor", "Brute Major", etc. It doesn't fully make sense to me why this is the case, but we can't do anything about it, because the game designers made it that way. Halopedia just ''conveys'' the information they create. We can't ''assume'' that things can go any other way. --<b>[[User:ED|<font color="black">E</font>]][[User talk:ED|<font color="black">D</font>]][[Image:ArmyROTC.gif|15px]]</b> 15:44, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
