Rename to "Soldier"?

In the universe section of Halo Waypoint, it refers to Promethean Soldiers as just "Soldiers", unlike the entries on the other Promethean constructs which have "Promethean" in front of their names. Should we rename the page? -- Topal the Pilot Blueteam.png (Talk|Contribs) 03:26, 21 August 2015 (EDT)

I think I saw somewhere it was described as a armiger-class soldier or something, could be wrong. But yes I think that would be a good idea. Alertfiend (talk) 03:36, 21 August 2015 (EDT)

"...certain Soldier variants might be sometimes called "Promethean Soldiers" because they were once employed by Promethean forces." This implies that "Promethean" in the name is merely a descriptor for certain variants used by the Prometheans. I'm fine with dropping Promethean though. --NightHammer(talk)(contribs) 09:29, 21 August 2015 (EDT)

Going back to what Alertfiend said, they might be a variant of the Armiger-class. In this case the Armiger-class Soldier. Where the word at the end could change depending on the variant.
