::I'm still certain that the ''Ghosts of Onyx'' usage implied it wasn't meant to be understood as the name of an organization, but it's regardless found its way into official material because Halopedia (erroneously) used it as such. Oh well. Given the rather frequent mentions, there's no arguing against bringing it back, though we should keep the note to remind people where it came from. --[[User:Jugus|Jugus]] ([[User talk:Jugus|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|Contribs]]) 00:09, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

::I agree with Braidenvl. It does appear that the URF is the official name for a faction of insurrectionists. That said we must remember that in the same way all thumbs are fingers but not all fingers are thumbs, all URF are insurrectionists but not all innies are URF.--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|20px]][[User:Rusty-112|''' Rusty ''''''- ''''''112 ''']] 00:15, 3 September 2012 (EDT)

I certainly concur with Subtank's Doylist interpretation of the facts. Clearly, someone at 343i assumed the information about the URF which the ''Encyclopedia'' plagiarized from us was canon and thus "ran with it", so to speak. However, it is clear that, misunderstanding or not, 343i now intends for the United Rebel Front to hold a proper place in canon. Like Jugus says, we should bring the article and related content back to the wiki and add a note about the real-world origins of the organization.

On another note: Congratulations on your newly acquired admin rights, guys. You'll make this community proud. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|Courage never dies.]] 00:25, 3 September 2012 (EDT)
