On your reversion of my edits for the page for the [[Unidentified Sangheili Shipmaster (The Return)]], you answered that "Human", not being a proper noun, should not be the capitalized. The reason that I did was because on [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page Wookieepedia], the policy there '''IS''' that "Human" be capitalized, out of uniformity since the names of all the other species are (See [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Human#Behind_the_scenes here] at the last sentence of the section for more details.) Halopedia is closely modeled off of Wookieepedia, and I expected that policy to carry over as well while I was editing. Your call to whether it should or shouldn't.

:I'm familiar with that policy. However, as mentioned [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Human#Behind_the_scenes here], "human" is only capitalized on Wookieepedia because pretty much every other ''Star Wars'' species' name is capitalized. The word is never capitalized in any of the dozens of ''Star Wars'' novels, games, or comics that I own. It's the same case with the ''Halo'' series. Thus, it should remain uncapitalized. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson]] 20:23, 7 April 2011 (EDT) | |||
