Talk:Insurrectionist: Difference between revisions

Line 30:

If the actual name of what is clearly the most prominent and resourceful rebel faction was indeed "United Rebel Front" like our articles claim, then I'm pretty sure it would've been mentioned in the novels more than once, not to mention capitalized. Obviously, when this article was first created, Halopedia's policy was to capitalize every word in article titles, so it's understandable something like this might've slipped by. Unless I've missed something and the faction is legitimately called "United Rebel Front" somewhere, I propose we merge this article with [[Insurrectionist]] for the sake of clarity. --[[User:Jugus|Jugus]] ([[User talk:Jugus|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|Contribs]]) 14:33, 25 July 2011 (EDT)

:As I recall, Robert Watts is stated to be ~~the leader~~ of the "United Rebel Front" - suggesting that it is the organization's proper name - in the ''Encyclopedia''. However, I agree that "united rebel front" seems much more like a descriptor than an actual name. It's hard to imagine that an insurgent group would publicly call themselves rebels; typically, insurgents identify themselves as liberators, freedom fighters, or something similar.

:As I recall, Robert Watts is stated to be one of three leaders of the "United Rebel Front" - suggesting that it is the organization's proper name - in the ''Encyclopedia''. However, I agree that "united rebel front" seems much more like a descriptor than an actual name. It's hard to imagine that an insurgent group would publicly call themselves rebels; typically, insurgents identify themselves as liberators, freedom fighters, or something similar.

:"United Rebel Front" is so jingoistic that it would easily damage the public's opinion of the organization, which is the opposite of what the Innies wanted. The name seems a little bit more suitable for Graves' cell on Victoria, (which was seemingly preparing to take the UNSC head-on, if only for a brief period of time), but for other groups, like the Eridanus cell, such a name would be public relations suicide. --[[User talk:Braidenvl|Courage never dies.]] 15:01, 25 July 2011 (EDT)
