In most instances on the wiki, sections on the game page give an overview on the topic and provide a link to the topic page which gives more fleshed out and thorough information. In this case it's the reverse. Rather than a simple copy-paste, I think we should move some of the Infinity info from the Halo 4 page, to here. This page should also feature the maps template. This is just my opinion, but in its current state, this article may as well be a redirect to the section on the Halo 4 page.--[[User talk:Soul reaper|Soul reaper]] 06:45, 1 September 2012 (EDT)

Honestly, I don't think the template is necessary since it has a limited, trivial and non-crucial use. Wouldn't it be better to present the maps in the traditional, yet simplistic bullet-style format like the rest of the articles? Two other reasons is the potential issue of scalability and compatibility (''when'' the wiki receives a mobile skin, the table will be mangled), and my personal rule to "avoid template creep".— <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  09:34, 3 July 2013 (EDT)

Simply put, "Infinity" is just a flavour text/description used by 343i as another word for multiplayer. A synonym for "multiplayer" if you will. Nothing noteworthy at that end. As such, I don't think it is notable enough to have its own article. The [[multiplayer]] article already does a better job of providing [[Multiplayer#Halo_4|an overview of ''Halo 4''<nowiki />'s multiplayer]]. Also, most, if not all of the content in this article has been sufficiently covered in [[Halo_4#Multiplayer|''Halo 4''<nowiki />'s multiplayer section]]. I would prefer this article to be deleted, but I think a merge is more appropriate. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  13:09, 26 December 2013 (EST)

{{Support}} - Agreed. This article is utterly superfluous. --[[User:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">'''''Our vengeance is at hand.'''''</span>]] [[File:Gravemind.svg|14px]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|<span style="color:gray">Talk to me.</span>]]) 23:21, 26 December 2013 (EST)
{{Support}} – Agreed, so long as it is meaty enough to include all useful information. [[User:Erickyboo|Erickyboo]] ([[User talk:Erickyboo|talk]]) 00:19, 27 December 2013 (EST)
