== Wikia Spotlight ==


You might have noticed a new feature called ''Wikia Spotlight'' above the ads. We are featuring eight wikis here to see whether this is useful in bringing in new users. Halopedia is one of the first ones to be shown in this feature, and I'd appreciate your feedback at [[Wikia:Forum:Wikia Spotlight]] about whether you think this is useful, and whether it has brought any new users to your wiki. The eight wikis we're trying this with first are [[wikia:world|World Wikia]], [[wikia:marvel|Marvel Universe]], [[halowikia:|Halo Alpha]], [[wikia:cell|Cell Phone Enthusiasts]], [[wikia:ipod|iPod]], [[wikia:poker|PokerWiki]], [[wikia:filmguide|The Film Guide]], and [[wikia:runescape|RuneScapeWiki]].

:I think it's a great idea!  Any publicity will help us out!  Is there are any user tools to tell if there is an increase in site traffic?  Also, do you have a solution to the Search_logo.png, shown further up the page? --[[User:John117|John117]] 21:48, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

This is just a question, not a recommendation. Should there be a welcome template on this page? -Blemo

:No, because the welcome template should send them here, and this is an information page, not a welcome center.
