The name "Oracle" is used specifically for the Covenant. I am assuming the creator of the page, like most people, had mistaken a Forerunner monitor's name as "Oracle", as there are no subtitles in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'', and ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3'' cutscenes had barely mentioned an "Oracle"'s classification. We should rename the page to "Monitor Glitch" or "Hostile Monitor Glitch" or something that will not confuse the reader. —<span style="color:silver;">[[User:Spartan331|S331]]</span><sub>[[User talk:Spartan331|Talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Spartan331|Contributions]]</sub> 10:24, 11 April 2011 (EDT)

If you would read the Manual of Style talk page, then you would see the thing I made about "unspoken rules".  Well, one unspoken rule on Halopedia is that the guy who discovers the glitch names the page. (Unless of course, the person has a completely inappropriate name; like, "Special Balls that can Shoot Red Ejaculate Laser Glitch".) That's why everybody always tries to be the 1st one to make the page on Halopedia once a new game comes out.  So, whoever discovered this glitch named the page.
:If you would really like to conflict with this 'unspoken rule", then make your case with the "unspoken rule" itself on the Manual of Style page.

::This "unspoken rule" would only apply if no one can come up with a descriptive title. — <span style="font-size:120%; font-family:Palatino Linotype; font-style:italic;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 14:01, 12 April 2011 (EDT)
