You're changing links for [[Hegemony Armed Forces]] to [[Terran Hegemony Armed Forces]]. However, the name of the armed forces of the [[Terran Hegemony]] prior to the formation of the [[Star League]] was the Hegemony Armed Forces - just like the armed forces of the Federated Suns was the Federated Peacekeeping Forces and then the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns. I'm not sure why you're making the change, because you're pointing the links away from the correct name. Are you perhaps under the impression that when Hegemony Armed Forces is being used as a link, it's being used as shorthand for [[the armed forces of the Terran Hegemony]] rather than as the actual name for the armed forces? The HAF was distinct from the closest armed forces with a similar name which are the [[Marian Hegemony Armed Forces]], which specifically have the word "Marian" in the title, but the Hegemony Armed Forces never had the word "Terran" in the title. If a disambig page has been set up, then it's been created in error - we should have one page titled "Hegemony Armed Forces" with an otheruses tag to point to "Marian Hegemony Armed Forces".
