I think there should be an article about Halo FAN CONTENT! I would do this, but I am INEXPERIENCED at making articles.{{Unsigned|Cheatcodeman}}

:I'd recommend you take a look at our [[Halopedia:~~Notability_Policy~~#Fan_content|existing guidelines]] on fanworks. We do allow articles on a very small number of fan works (such as [[Red vs. Blue]]) that are of substantial scale and notability within the franchise. However, due to the sheer amount of fan content out there, we typically very rarely allow for new fan project articles to be created (and as of recent, we've been re-evaluating which ones to keep or remove). I'd recommend checking out [https://halofanon.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page Halo Fanon] for more in the realm of fan content.[[User:BaconShelf|BaconShelf]] ([[User:BaconShelf|talk]]) 16:32, May 27, 2021 (EDT)

:::Same deal - only rarely, if they can be proven to be of substantial scale within their space, and have been recognised by multiple news outlets (IE articles on sites such as PC Gamer, Kotaku, Polygon etc) or 343 themselves. We have pages dedicated to some mod projects such as OPTRE and SoTP that have recieved official recognition from 343 themselves, and have extensive media coverage outside of that. In the case of your game (which I would assume is what this is about), it would unfortunately not fall under these guidelines.
