==Guidelines on adding "Seven" References to the Article==

In order to keep the list relevant, please refer to the following guidelines:

#No seven character words/phrases.
#Subject must directly relate to Halo.
#Numbers cannot just merely contain 7 as a digit. (e.g. no 1'''7''').
#If numbers are to be placed into equations, the operations are to be kept consistent. (e.g. no 1+2+8-1+6-9=7).
#No fan fiction, including [[machinima]] such as [[Red vs Blue]].

== Halo:CE The Maw detonation timer ==

It is stated on the article that the timer stops at 12:31. That timer stops just at a random time, I had it in 14 minutes, in 13 minutes,... It all depends on how fast you walk the first part of the maw. If you walking it slowly, the timer will count more minutes off. This is NOT a Bungie reference, just a random clock stop.

== the 7 people in the 21 gun salute ==

<math>Insert formula here</math>

That doesn't have anything to do with Bungie's addiction to 7. That's how it is at all military,police,or firefighters funeral. It is a 21 gun salute because it is 7 people shooting 3 shots each, no coincidence. You just saw 7 and thought Bungie put it in there just for you to find. I mean if the military gave Master Chief a whole memorial for his service and death and what he did, yea I'm sure they would give him the 21 gun salute. Oh yea i know all this cause I am on the Honor Guard at a military school. So the "Seven Marines fire their Battle Rifles in the air in the ceremony at the end of Halo 3." part should be erased.

Although Bungie didn't make the 21 gun salute, there's no way of telling whether they put it in their '''because''' of their favourite number, or whether it's coincidence.

:I'm afraid you're making a common mistake. What was fired at the end of Halo 3 was NOT a 21-gun salute, but rather a 3-volley salute. The difference is that a 3-volley salute consists of rifles firing blanks into the air simultaneously 3 times, as where the 21-gun salute uses artillery pieces, fired one at a time for a total of 21 shots. Very important is that a 3-volley salute doesn't necessarily need to have seven shooters, but rather an odd-number of shooters numbering 3 at the least and 7 at the most. Seven is the most common form, but since it is not the only form, the seven-man 3-volley at the end of Halo 3 can still be considered a 7 reference.--[[File:Emblem 1.jpg|18px]][[User:Rusty-112|<font color="Blue">Rusty</font>]][[User:Rusty-112|<font color="Red">-</font>]][[User:Rusty-112|<font color="Blue">112</font>]] 03:10, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Is it possible that the rounds fired were not blanks? I read that blanks cannot be fired semi-automatic, and the battle rifles were fired in a semi-automatic fashion. it could just be a mistake by Bungie, but they seem to do there research. --Can SPARTANS eat pie?

It's not good to mix operations. You can get any number you want from a batch of numbers if you work hard enough and have perfect freedom. I do think there are numbers that are a reference when added together, but mixing subtraction in there seems over the top to me and liable to pick up stuff that are not real references. --<b>[[User:Dragonclaws|<font color="#4D56B1">Dragon<font color="#F28500">c</font>laws</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Dragonclaws|<font color="#4D56B1">talk</font>]])</sup></b> 19:18, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

== Mythic map and 30 new achievements ==

Bungie only lets you do the first 10 new achievements of halo 3.(30-10=20)When the first 3 new Mythic maps come out you can do 13 more of the new achievements.(20-13=7).So when the last 3 Mythic maps come out you can do the last 7 new achievements of halo 3.

==Halo Wars date==
Halo Wars comes out on March 3rd. March is the 3 month and Halo Wars comes out on the 3rd day. (3+3=6)Also, Halo Wars is the first game of it's kind. (6+1=7)

That's just coincidental, no one is that sad to put the RELASE DATE of a game to reference 7. And Halo Wars isn't the first futuristic RTS either. Wr1ghty 17:47, April 10 2009

Even if it was the first game of its kind, that wouldn't have anything to do with the date or any possible seven reference associated with it. --<b>[[User:Dragonclaws|<font color="#4D56B1">Dragon<font color="#F28500">c</font>laws</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Dragonclaws|<font color="#4D56B1">talk</font>]])</sup></b> 08:54, 9 April 2009 (UTC)

==Halo 3 Maps==
There are 6 maps still due to come out. There are 27 maps all togather but only 3 diffrent variants (Sand Tarp, Boundless, and Epithap) 27 divided by 3 = 9. But 3 divided by 3 = 1. 6 new maps plus the 1 = 7. Then 7 + 9 = 16. There're 2 numbers in 16 so 16 divided by 2 = 8. There is only one number in 8 so 8 - 1 = 7.

Is it possible that many of these are not real references placed by [[Bungie]], but rather coincidental? I mean, some of them, like the IWHBYD one (16 syllables; 6+1=7) are kind of complicated. [[User:Bioniclepluslotr|<span style="color: lime; font-family: BankGothic Md BT; font-size: 12pt;">'''BPL'''</span>]] 15:20, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

My friend, I couldn't agree with you more. It seems as though every blasted page has some kind of "7 reference" that is broken down into such a convoluted mathamatical argument that it just has to be a coincidence. But the problem is that most people don't think so. Most editors see a number and think of every possible mathamatical operation they can do to make that number equal "7". It's insane. I'd venture to say that 75% of the number-inclusive articles on Halopedia include something like this:
*The service number of Marine John Holliday, 49-JH-3056, is possibly another of Bungie's infamous [[7]] references: (3+0+5+6 / 10-8(H and J) = 2 2nd root of 49 =7).
It's just embarrasing how many alleged 7 refernces are explained this way. I try to remove any that just seem completely incredulous ("Phantom" having 7 letters '''''must''''' be a 7 reference!) but inevitably, someone puts it back up. [[User talk:Flag-Waving American Patriot|Flag-Waving American Patriot]] 01:33, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

I was thinking the exact same thing. Some things, I think, should be put up because of the references. The Asian character engraved on the Halo 1 pistol being the equivalent of 7, Commander Keyes's 7-shaped scar on her cheek, Guilty Spark and the other monitors' numbers being powers of 7 and whatnot, there are seven Halo rings, and some other things. Though, most of the things on this page are absolute crud, to put it lightly. "Warthog", "SPARTAN", "Cortana", "Arbiter", "Evolved" and "Phantom" all have seven letters in them! Halo 3: ODST has seven syllables in the title (Hay-loh Three Oh-Dee-Ess-Tee)! Fourteen ensigns were killed in a slipspace accident, and 14 divided by 2 is 7! It takes seven needles from a Needler to cause an explosion! On page seven of this book, a SPARTAN uses something with a designation of "7"! There are currently seven Halo games!

Seriously, most of those are coincidences. Do you honestly think that a company would design their game and universe that heavily around making references to a single number? The Human brain sees what it wants to see. I'm ashamed that Halopedia has an article this pointless and speculative, especially when so many things on this page are obviously only coincidences. Chiafriend12 00:49, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

You don't know how good it is to ''finally'' hear someone else say that... Oh wait... my last sentence had 14 words in it; divide that by 2 and you get 7! Add it to the reference list! [[User talk:Flag-Waving American Patriot|Flag-Waving American Patriot]] 03:10, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

I know...for instance: The IWHBYD means I would have been your daddy, so what if it can equal seven? Some people spend half an hour on every number just to see if any equation of it can hit seven! Imagine the number 73686 shows up in a book, I bet someone would do this: 7-3+6-8+6=7. Thats a simple one, yes, but my point is people would look for every way possible to find seven. I seemed plauged by the number 117 now though, it pops up everywhere...[[User talk:Papayaking|Papayaking]] 01:51, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Perhaps adding a categorizing system where the obvious (intentional) seven references are placed in one category, on the fly (need a number? use 7!) references are placed (FTA: "Twelve shots rang out, and seven Grunts fell.") and the convoluted (probably coincidental) references are placed. (FTA:"The Pelican that extracts the Master Chief, Johnson, and the Arbiter after Johnson is rescued is named Kilo-two three. Kilo = K (phonetic alphabet) and is the eleventh letter. 1+1+2+3 = 7.") --[[User talk:KickButtUnggoy|KickButtUnggoy]] 00:23, October 22, 2009 (UTC)

==Analysis==
Out of curiosity, I decided to analyze the likelihood of seven references. I put my work over [http://www.angelfire.com/dragon2/lambton/7_Count.htm here] for reference. Basically, it confirms that there're way more numbers other than seven, and that adding up the digits of various numbers is probably not going to yield a reference. --<b>[[User:Dragonclaws|<font color="#4D56B1">Dragon<font color="#F28500">c</font>laws</font>]]<sup>([[User talk:Dragonclaws|<font color="#4D56B1">talk</font>]])</sup></b> 10:02, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

== Another ==

These are all real figures, no joke. Me and my friend (who both own Halo 3) live at house numbers 27 and 19 respectively. 27 plus 19 is 36. 36 divided by 6 (the number of houses connected to the cul de sac) is 6. 6 plus 1 (the number of streets we live on) is 7. Bungie must have planned this.

But seriously, some of these references are just stupid. Any mathmatical equation should not count. I can change any numbers to suit what I need them to be. Halo 3 is not a seven reference just because 4, the number of letters plus 3 is seven.

== 9 ==

I'm not bringing this up because of the upcoming movie of the same name but I just noticed that there are also a lot of number 9 in the halo universe almost as much as 7 and usually along side the number 7. Johns code name equals 9 when each number is added together. the Pillar of Autum's number was 0709, Antipersonnel Mine model number is TR/9, Oscar 9 is the pelican's name and number in Land Fall,a common Drop Pod is 9 feet Long, November 9th is the date of halo 2, Spartan II were kidnapped and flashed cloned on September(9th month) 9th, March 9th the spartan IIs were augmented. 2545(2+5=7 4+5=9) was the year Class II of the Spartan II project was augmented. Brutes are approximately 9 feet tall and Tartarus is only said to be "over 9'". Jacob Keyes has 9 ribbons on his uniform. The In Amber Clad and Forward Unto dawn can carry 9 warthogs. 9 Marine Personnel wounded during the battle of Sigma Octanus VI. Messlia the AI along with the Ilovebee's server were kept functional for 500 years until October 9th, 2552. the Covenant believe this is the 9th Age of Reclamation, and it proved to be the final one. Installation 5's reported time since it requested maintenance was 32 minutes, 9 seconds excatly. [[7-89]]. Cortana's reg number is CTN 0452-9 and Endless Summer is MIL AI 4279. In halo 3 it takes 9 shots to the head to take down an Elite or Brute with a pistol. the Albatross Heavy Dropship is excatly 120 feet and 9 inches long. Operation: TORPEDO launched 291 spartan-III and 9 were lost. A staff Sgt commands 9 marines at minimum. Battlegroup Stalingrad was made out of 9 ships. The Spartan II were made out of kids as old as 9. Hayabusa's shoulder's parts is unlocked when you get 9 skulls. When you beat the level Halo in Halo 3 you get an achievement "return" with the roman numeral 9 as it's icon. the Fleet of Retribution is made up of 9 CCS-class Battlecruisers.

You jump through ring #6, 1 time. Ring #5, 2 times. Ring #4, 3 times and ring number 3 once. 6+1=7, 5+2=7, 4+3=7. so there are 3 7's in the sequence.

why the heck did no one put that there are 7 armor permuations!!!![[Special:Contributions/70.121.51.239|70.121.51.239]] 21:46, August 22, 2010 (UTC) not a member

== Take off the unneeded redirect ==

Is there a particular reason why, every time anyone click on any link to seven, it leads to a page which tells you to click another page to get to the page you're looking for? Why not just merge the two pages where, each time you click the [[Seven]] link, you get taken to the Seven page [[User talk:AvalonTreman|AvalonTreman]] 02:59, August 31, 2010 (UTC)

== Biggest 9 refernce ==
Halo CE was released in 2001

Halo Reach is relased in 2010. 9 years later.

== Cortana's Date of creation ==
Cortana was made in 2549/11/7, which can be 2549117 without the slashes

this can be split into 25, 49, and 117

2+5=7,

7^2=49,

and 117 follows the already known techniques of:

1-1+7=7 and 1*1*7=7

also, 25+49+117=191, which can be -1+9-1=7

(this is unrelated, but there has to be more on "ERROR CODE 5929" in the 6/27/08 Bungie Weekly update (in Miscellaneous section of 7 references), even if not 7-related... right?)

I'm pretty sure conspiracy theorists couldn't come up with that one... and stop showing us that you passed pre-algebra, I could make any number equal seven... [[User talk:Sayian Spartan|Sayian Spartan]] 00:27, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

I know that it seems a bit too unlikely myself, but i posted it for the fact that it was the date Cortana was created, and thought that this date might have enough significance that Bungie might have put in some sort of reference. If not for that, i understand that these types of complicated things should not be taken seriously as proper references. Anyway, i intended to put as many references here as ''possibilities''. For example, the whole thing might not be a reference, but maybe just the 11/7 date being a proper reference. Rather than putting a rude statement, look into it a bit more, and answer a bit more politely please.

::Well, it's been a while, and I notice that: 

::"Most of the Halo series is set in years beginning with the number 25. 2+5=7 The vast majority of the game trilogy is set in 2552. 5 and 2 is the exact same equation, per order of operations."

::is listed under the Miscellaneous section. 

::Following this, in the date 2549/11/7: 

::- The "25" is already accepted, 

::- The root(49)=7 seems as straightforward as 5+2=7,

::- So lastly, what's the opinion on 11/7?

:::Never mind, just found it in Halo Reach section "Cortana was activated November 7, 2549 or 11/7/49.[80] 49=72 The month and day date may also be a reference to John-117's service number." [[User:KokoroSenshi|KokoroSenshi]] ([[User talk:KokoroSenshi|talk]]) 07:25, 12 September 2015 (EDT)

== Editing Template ==

Forgive my ignorance but I'm wondering how to edit the contents of the scroll boxes to add more references. Or one of you guys could add it. In Halo: Reach, during the beginning of the mission Exodus, the pistol you start with is missing one bullet. (8-1=7).

The very long title is, my opinion, cumbersome and not very easy to link to. Because of this, this article has '''[[Seven]]''' [[7|redirects]] [[List of Seven references in Halo|that are]] [[List of 7 references|just variant]] [[List of "seven" references in Halo|renamings]] [[List of "Seven" references in Halo|of this one]] [[List of "seven" references in the Halo series|page]]. ([[Bungie's Lucky Number|And this pointless thing]].) A new one gets made every time the title is changed slightly, and half the users just link to "Seven" anyway. Because of this, I recommend this page should be moved to "Seven" for ease of linking. The current title could perhaps be kept through the Title Template, but it would not be the actual title.

:::I agree as well. The use of the title template also isn't needed here; I've been meaning to start a larger-scale implementation of the [[Halopedia:Manual of Style#Title template|additions]] I made to the MOS regarding the template a while back (the rationale for which can be found [[Halopedia talk:Manual of Style#Proposal: an end to the obfuscation of article titles|here]]). --[[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> 13:11, 8 February 2015 (EST)

I added a bullet to Halo 3 regarding the time frame the first seven maps were released in (209 days, roughly seven months). I hope that's alright.
