*{{Oppose}} -- I think the sole reason for this article to exist is the fact sentience is canonically significant, in relation to the Halo Array, smart AIs and the hypothetical concept of "transsentience". Meanwhile, an article on sapience wouldn't have much relevant in-universe content besides defining the word. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 15:22, 22 January 2012 (EST) | *{{Oppose}} -- I think the sole reason for this article to exist is the fact sentience is canonically significant, in relation to the Halo Array, smart AIs and the hypothetical concept of "transsentience".

The word "sapient" isn't used in the series; only "sentient". We should just re-write the article; replace the definition of sapient (the ability to act with judgement) with that of sentient (to feel and perceive).-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 18:22, 21 January 2012 (EST) | |||
:That different is pretty big, in fact. While a full conciousness can only be confirmed amongst humans - a being acting on their own will rather than just by instinct, there are many sentient animals. That makes the Halo Array much more deadly, particularly to mammals.-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 18:27, 21 January 2012 (EST) | |||
