:::: Of course we don't only use in-universe sources, I never implied that. And I would hold that the source you linked isn't evidence to suggest any in-universe name is intended, rather just nicknaming him after his Voice Actor. "Voice of the Grunt" and "Voice of Sarge" don't exactly indicate a strict format to those outtake labels. Here's an incredibly similar source where a Bungie employee refers to Sergeant Banks as "Sergeant Jones" for example despite calling other characters by their in-universe names: http://nikon.bungie.org/misc/voices.html | :::: Of course we don't only use in-universe sources, I never implied that.

:::: This isn't judging what is or what is nor canon. This is simply avoiding stating things that we aren't certain of. If we don't have enough evidence to believe something happened, we can't detail it | :::: This isn't judging what is or what is nor canon. This is simply avoiding stating things that we aren't certain of. If we don't have enough evidence to believe something happened, we can't detail it, and there is simply not enough evidence to suggest that Halo CE's Marine Sergeant is a distinct character *at all*, let alone Marcus Stacker. If you exclude ''The Silent Chartographer'', he is scripted to spawn a total of **Zero** times across the entire game, his other three appearances are completely random. Even upon spawning, he does not always have a consistent voice. And his face bitmap is not unique, the "Marcus" bitmap can be found on regular, helmeted marines as well. | ||
::::Character biographies should be written from an in-universe perspective. This is why we avoid specific gameplay-related details and screenshots for example. We can detail the possibility of a Marine Sergeant on Installation-04 possibly being Stacker in misc and/or trivia sections the same way his appearance in Halo 3: ODST is handled. | ::::Character biographies should be written from an in-universe perspective.
