→Sourcing
Each section/fact must be sourced with reference to a footnote; with games it is acceptable to just source the whole game although greater detail is preferred if available (ie level 2 or whatever). Where multiple background divergences are a possibility (ie who is the traitor) the canon background goes in the main body and a Notes section is created to document the other possibilities. '' If canon is unclear'', no definitive statements should be made in the main body, but a Notes section should still be created to recount all the possibilities.

I believe the point that was being made with the edit is that the possibilities from Chaos Rising are as follows:
*Martellus = cannot be canon traitor due to being a loyalist character in Retribution
*Tarkus = as above
*Cyrus = as above
*Jonah = as above
*Thaddeus = Tarkus explicitly reveals the traitor as having served with him on Kronus; which, if I remember correctly, Thaddeus did not do canonically. Would be worth just double-checking that though.
*Avitus = sole remaining possibility. Not shown as a loyalist in Retribution and did serve with Tarkus on Kronus.
Apart from Avitus the only one not explicitly shown to be loyalist for Retribution is Thaddeus; who I'm pretty sure is ruled out for the above reason, although that would have to be double checked and confirmed by someone. By the simple process of elimination Avitus is the only possibility within the canon; theres no possibility of alternatives or divergences because all of the other options are accounted for.
