Name of the armed forces?

Is there any mention of this group apart from the page linked in the Sources section? It looks like "the Sangheilian armed forces" mentioned in that page's footnotes is just a generic term for the Sangheilian military, not the name of a specific entity that goes by the name Sangheilian Armed Forces.

If there is another mention of the Sangheilian Armed Forces (or SAF), please add it to the Sources. Otherwise, I recommend that this article be deleted. --blue_j 22:10, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Okay, and a generic term for the Sangheili Military merits it's own article. There is no point to your post, and if more information was available, it would be added to the page. And the thing is, Halopedia takes every drop of information, even if it only has one or two sources. File:UNSCoH Dingo without letters.PNGColonel TonyTalk 10/12/2007
I apoligize if I have made a mis-step here. My point was only that the Wiki article reads as if there is an official military organization called the Sangheilian Armed Forces, which is known by an abbreviated name S.A.F., but there are no sources or references linked which support this. To the best of my knowledge, this S.A.F. has not been mentioned in any games, books, comics, or other material outside of Halopedia itself. (Specifically: "Sangheilian Armed Forces" and "Sangheilian Fleet")
If such references exist, they should be linked here. If not, I recommend the article be deleted as this would mean that no organization called Sangheilian Armed Forces exists in the Haloverse. However, I agree with you that the armed forces of the Sangheili, in general, would merit their own article. If this page were re-written to focus on the Elite military structure rather than this S.A.F., I would support that. --blue_j 01:13, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
Well go right ahead on writing the Elite military structure in here. It would be greatly appreciated since you recommended it. And if you need any help, just ask me.File:UNSCoH Dingo without letters.PNGColonel TonyTalk 10/13/2007
Six years and a wikifork later, this page reads much better, thanks guys. :) blue_j (talk) 18:40, 20 January 2014 (EST)

"Sangheilian"?

"Sangheilian"? Isn't it just "Sangheili"? Isn't "Sangheilian" like saying "Humani", "Humanian", etc.? Template:Signatures/Chiafriend12 22:16, 17 April 2008 (UTC)

Bump! To my knowledge, the plural of Sangheili is simply Sangheili. So Sangheilian would not be necessary. Has Sangheilian been used anywhere else? --TentacleTornado 09:25, 11 November 2012 (EST)
I agree, after reading the novels I have never seen ian written ever. Only ever Sangheili. VARGR 13:22, 11 November 2012 (EST)
