:Not all information on the Haloverse is put on Bungie.net, heck, barely anything on Halo itself is on that site. Therefore, much of the information put on these pages is gleaned from other canon sources: usually the games, but books/comics as well. Rtas' name was revealed in the introduction to the 'Last Flight of the Infinate Succor' in the Halo Graphic Novel,which is considered canon by Bungie.

==Shorthand Name== | |||
Hate to resurrect an old argument here, but as far as I recall, every other Halo novel besides Halo: The Flood that I've read- and I'm fairly certain I haven't missed one yet- consistently uses every Sangheili's first name as the shorthand. For example, Halo: The Cole Protocol consistently uses "Thel" as Thel 'Vadam(ee)'s shorthand name, while Halo: The Ghosts of Onyx consistently uses "Voro" as Voro Nar 'Mantakree's shorthand name. Heck, most of Thel's handpicked group aren't even ''given'' last names, so this rule is even used in actual speech in The Cole Protocol's case. Going from seeing every other major Sangheili character referred to by their first name to Rtas consistently referred to as "'Vadumee" and "'Vadum" whenever mentioned by name in the article is just really jarring and ruins the internal consistency Halopedia has going. Would anyone mind if I went and changed most of the instances of "'Vadumee" and "'Vadum" to "Rtas", to fit the naming conventions followed by the majority of the canon as well as the majority of the Sangheili character articles here on Halopedia?
