An excellent article, excellently written with solid sourcing and notes per the new sourcing guidelines. Evolutions has provided a lot of new information for him and I think the article warrants some time as a featured article. - [[User:ShadowBroker44|<span style="background:black; font-family:Courier New;font-size:10pt;color:white;">''' ''S.B.44'' '''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:ShadowBroker44|<span style="color:black;">[Talk]</span></sup>]] 01:12, February 28, 2010 (UTC)

#{{Neutral}} Being a picky bastard right now; sources should be well cited; that includes page numbers and what chapters they were mentioned/appeared in and formatted properly. Some of the content looks legit but potentially well made-up. Citations would clear things up.

==[[Ripa 'Moramee]] (Approved) ==
==[[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey]] (Won)==
'''Reason''': This is actually my second attempt at getting this article to featured status. Finally found time to finish this up. Effectively rewrote the article, making it completely comprehensive and updated it with new sources. Filled it with quotes and quality pictures as well, not to mention updated citations throughout the article.
Dr. Halsey is an integral part of the Halo canon. From her development of the MJOLNIR armor system, to the augmentations performed on the Spartan-II's , and even the creation of Cortana, Halsey has indirectly saved humanity many times. She has not been directly mentioned in any of the games but it is clear that she is one of the most important characters in halo universe and warrants featured article status. In addition to this it is a well written article, and fits all of CommanderTony's new criteria for featured articles. - [[User:ShadowBroker44|<span style="background:black; font-family:Courier New;font-size:10pt;color:white;">''' ''S.B.44'' '''</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:ShadowBroker44|<span style="color:black;">[T]</span></sup>]] 03:47, March 17, 2010 (UTC)

== [[Outbreak on Installation 00]] ==
==[[New Mombasa]] (Won)==
'''Reason''': Haven't had a featured in a while, I'm probably gonna start highlighting some of the articles worked on over the past year by myself and others, as a lot of overhauls and stuff have been made recently. Figured I'd start off with one that takes place most recently in the timeline. Otherwise, this article collates every source I was able to find on the matter and is pretty comprehensive as far as the Flood outbreak can go.
New Mombasa has had a flood of new information upon the release of ''ODST'', and it has been maintained to a high standard since then. It is well written, laid out accordingly, fully sourced, has a fine amount of images in the main article, and a sizable gallery. Being such an integral part of the series, being a main setting in ''Halo 2'' and ''Halo 3: ODST'', its article does it justice. It fits all of CT's new Featured Article criteria. - [[File:Black Mesa.jpg|28px]] [[User:Halo-343|<span style="color: purple; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 128%;">'''Halo-343'''</span>]] [[User talk:Halo-343|<font color="red"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Talk'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] [[Special:Contributions/Halo-343|<font color="orange"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Contribs'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] [[Special:Editcount/Halo-343|<font color="green"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Edits'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] 20:17, April 14, 2010 (UTC)

For an article about a character that technically has no gender, SPARTAN-B312 is both surprisingly well written and well constructed.

She is the reason that their were many Halo Wars levels. If she had not been captured the end of halo wars would not have ended like that. She is a great addition to the halo wars campaign levels.
