==Project Stardust Reference Pictures==
== Covenant Species Weights ==
I just thought I'd make something of a suggestion here. There's a fangame on Roblox called Project Stardust (which I will link when I get home), it's basically like a space warship combat game. It has lots of factions, but it has a whole section for Halo and some of the ship models are honestly really amazing. I'm not sure the canon status of some of them, like I know a select few of the ships in the game are complete fan works.


However, there are some ships that are actual Halo universe ships, but are never pictured due to only ever appearing in books or what naught. One such example is the '''[[Razor-class prowler]]'''. On the current page, there are no reference images for it as I assume they do not exist, however the Razor-class is modeled in Project Stardust with unknown canon status. There are of course other examples, but that's just the one that came to mind. There are other modeled ships that are faithful to the canon that I think would be good to add, such as the '''[[Halcyon-class light cruiser]]''' and the '''[[Paris-class heavy frigate]]''', which have models in the game that I'm very impressed with.
I know there isn't much room in Wikis for jokes, but here's just one to start off a long analysis. Please don't ban me. Cracked.com ran an article called 5 Things We're Making Fatter in Addition to Ourselves. And I've noticed a somewhat similar trend over the Covenant species articles with their weights. They've almost all gone up, to somewhat ridiculous levels, with the exception of Elites, who have lost about 200 lbs. and Prophets, who've stayed the same.


Permission of the creators of Project Stardust might be important, but I could certainly look into that.
I don't have precise figures to quote, but from memory here is a comparison of the original species weight to the current one:
I know I'm not a community member here really, but I really really love Halopedia and appreciate all of the knowledge here, and I just thought it could be helpful to include some of these as gallery images, especially for ships that have very little coverage.  [[User:Spr1ft17|--Sprift (They/them don&#39;t forget)]] ([[User talk:Spr1ft17|talk]]) 11:30, August 27, 2024 (EDT)August 27th, 2024, 11:30AM EST
:Thanks for the suggestion, but Halopedia has an explicit hard line on not using images from ''any'' kind of fan project or fan art - we only permit images from officially-released ''Halo'' sources from Bungie, 343, Microsoft, and so forth. The sole exception is a very small handful of [[Sins of the Prophets]] images, as they were officially used by 343 themselves as part of collaborations in the 2022 Encyclopedia and Canon Fodder articles (and even then, no images from the mod except those ''explicitly'' published by 343 in an official context are allowed).[[User:BaconShelf|<span style="color:green;">BaconShelf</span>]] <span style="font-size:90%">([[User:BaconShelf|talk]])</span> 11:33, August 27, 2024 (EDT)

Just looking at these, the Grunt and Drone figures seem ridiculous. How does a Grunt, a much shorter and smaller creature than a human, weigh in so much heavier? And the Drone would be in the obese category in human classification, yet not only is it a pretty trim-looking creature, it's a flying one.
::::Per NightHammer, dates don't need those suffixes. Please remove them anytime you see them in an article.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 14:19, 4 June 2016 (EDT)


== Navigation section ==
The Jackal and Brute aren't as egregious as this, but they're still somewhat implausible figures. The Jackal is supposed to have hollow bones and it looks pretty skinny, but it's probably the most acceptable figure out of these four. Before the Elite's weight was changed from around 500 to its present of around 320 lbs, the Brute weighed 1,100. So it weighed a little more than twice as much as an Elite. Plausible. Now with the new figures, the Brute weighs 5 times as much as an Elite. Which makes little sense to me.


Hey everyone, I feel like it may be time to update the Main Page navigation, as it's been the same now for a few years. I have two working draft ideas [[User:Spartacus/Sandbox|here]]. Do note the images on layout <nowiki>#</nowiki>2 are merely placeholders for now. Any feedback would be most appreciated, thanks.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 18:44, 27 February 2017 (EST)
The source of these figures seems to be the Halo Encyclopedia, and I think the standard is to use the newest material as the main source in case of conflicts. But we've all read through/contributed to the rants about how riddled with errors the Encyclopedia is, and I think I can see the source of the error in some of these cases.

::Deffo number 1.-[[User:CIA391|CIA391]] ([[User talk:CIA391|talk]]) 19:24, 27 February 2017 (EST)
It makes very strong sense for the Grunt and the Drone especially, because those kilogram figures are almost the same as the old pound figures. The Jackal would be a little bit on the anorexic side if it were only 88 pounds, so in that case the 195 lb. figure should probably be more correct. The Brute was always a heavyweight, but consider, if it were 680 pounds it would weigh a little more than twice as much as the old Elite did, the same that it used to be when the Elite was 500.


::: #1 [[User:Lord Susto|<span style="color:orange">Lord Susto</span>]] 21:11, 27 February 2017 (EST)
My proposal is to change the weights of the Grunt, Drone, and possibly the Brute so that it's the same number in pounds that it is now in kilograms. If it's unacceptable to consider correcting typos/errors in the Halo Encyclopedia like that, then my proposal is to find the more accurate-sounding numbers in the old sources, and replace the current ones with those.

:''(reset indent)'' Agree with everyone else; the icons in the second version just take up space on the page for no real reason.

::I left those quotes on there by mistake and just forgot to remove them. Just like everyone else, my preference is for the first format, more because it's less images to manage.--{{User:Spartacus/Sig}} 23:49, 27 February 2017 (EST)
I suggest we change formatting of sources for books and games because I think it looks a bit more precise. And here are my suggestions for my proposal:
#Books: <code>'''''<nowiki>[[Name of book]]</nowiki>''''' - ''Any sub-titles'', page Page number ("''Quote (optional)''")</code>, or if you want to link right to the book: <code>''<nowiki>[[Name of book]]</nowiki>'' ("''Quote (optional)''")</code>
#Games: <code>'''''<nowiki>[[Name of game]]</nowiki>''''' - <nowiki>[[Name of level/Name of level (level)#Any sub-title|</nowiki>''Name of level'', Any sub-title<nowiki>]]</nowiki></code> ("''Quote (optional)''")</code>, or if you want to link right to the game: <code>''<nowiki>[[Name of game]]</nowiki>'' ("''Quote (optional)''")</code>
And as an example: If you want to source a quote from page  of ''Halo Encyclopedia'' as an example: <ref group="Source formatting">'''''[[Halo Encyclopedia]]''''' - ''Chapter Six: The Forerunners'', page 185 ("''The Libarian had a deep respect for humanity, whom she viewed as “special” among all of the sentient life she had catalogued and felt it was well worth the sacrafice of her life to save them.''")</ref>


==Menu page suggestions==
And for something like a section from a level in ''Halo 3'': <ref group="Source formatting">'''''[[Halo 3]]''''' - [[Sierra 117#Quid Pro Quo|''Sierra 117'', Quid Pro Quo]]</ref>
I have a few notes that I thought of that should be relatively easy to make or change. All thanks to Spartacus's idea to change the navi bar.


1. Could we perhaps move the "Did You Know?" to the bottom moving up the "Article Improvement Drive". Makes the improvement area more clear so they ye know get done.

2. Small idea, borrowing it off Halo Nation of all places, a Monthly poll. Seems harmless enough.

:1) I'd like to do that because of it's importance. 2) I don't know whether or not we have the code to do that. 3) A featured image is something I've wanted to for quite a while but have never gotten around to it. It would certainly be a nice addition. 4) That's fine with me. 5) Yeah, it just needs more promotion which is more or less up to the administration team.

:As for your fifth point, I think we shouldn't just nominate articles because we need more featured articles. It should be based on articles that are legitimately worthy of it. I've been kinda pedantic with that lately and there is a handful of articles currently "featured" that I think could still use some work (including several I've nominated).
We are already a pretty reached-out (no pun intended) wiki and I don't think that would be so different of awesome. The whole halopedians-only matches sound exclusive and unfun as well. My suggestion is below:


:I've considered the idea of having a featured content system similar to Wookieepedia, with "comprehensive" (for smaller articles under 250 words) and "good" articles (articles with a word count between comprehensive and featured articles, as opposed to Wikipedia's "good" articles which are simply lower in quality than featured articles). However, I feel like it would be difficult to maintain. And where do we draw the line for articles that can be considered "comprehensive" and articles that contain everything about a subject but are literally just one sentence and hard to consider "featured" worthy (in my opinion, [[Minister (planet)|Minister]] is a good example of a comprehensive article here). --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 23:18, 27 February 2017 (EST)
Contests. Everything reach themed in any medium. Poetry, photoshopping, screenshots, songs, animation. Anything you could work, and we have enough users to run something like that. 1st 2nd and 3rd for each category. Cairo 'my sig's broken' Cat 07:48, August 18, 2010 (UTC)


::The "comprehensive" articles are definitely an idea worth considering. In general, different kinds of projects like this are great as long as they keep getting updated - it's good to keep in mind that Halopedia used to have all sorts of community activities in its heyday (like Halopedian of the Month, etc.) which have since gotten discontinued due to a lack of activity. Then again, our user base seems to have rebuilt itself somewhat after the dip that followed the domain change, so it may be worth a shot to try these kinds of things again. --[[User:Jugus|Jugus]] ([[User talk:Jugus|talk]]) 23:38, 27 February 2017 (EST)
In my opinion, we should replace the file of John holding an MA5C with a file of Noble Six. The background should be changed too (the Tsavo Highway background is getting old). And instead of the usual white-and-light-blue colors of this wiki, we should have a more "Reach" feel to it. Such as using darker and gloomy-er colors. Just a suggestion. --[[File:Invincibilityhud.svg|20px]] [[User:Ultra Force|<span style="color: gray; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 120%;">'''Ultra Force'''</span>]] [[User talk:Ultra Force|<font color="grey"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Talk'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] [[Special:Contributions/Ultra Force|<font color="grey"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Contribs'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] [[Special:Editcount/Ultra Force|<font color="grey"><nowiki>(</nowiki>'''Edits'''<nowiki>)</nowiki></font>]] 20:32, August 24, 2010 (UTC)

In no particular relation to the above, except for the OP, I'm not sure the "Meet other Halo fans" widget is all that necessary or useful; I like that we have something to welcome users back, but how many people actually ever use the randomized user links?

I like the new darker background, fitting in with Reach's atmosphere. But, since Master Chief is Halo's iconic character, I say, alongside having the Reach Chief (since he's most likely going to make a cameo appearance), we also have like a group picture of all the important characters within the series, including Noble Team as a whole and the ODST squad. The main characters should take center stage though. --k1ll8 saurav 20:31, September 1, 2010

I have a huge thing I wanna suggest. But its one of those things that really does need to be discussed cause its started to become a problem of recent years. That problem is the rising popularity in Digital media. That even some Halo Books start off as Digital media.


Now why is this a problem you ask. Well it causes hell on the whole system we have where we say the Book name, then say the page it is on. As numerous formats might have some chapters being on radically different pages.

Now I propose this possible method to change how we source a book. Throwing out the old method of page numbers on their own. We say the Book/Novella name as normal, but now we say the chapter instead. This ensures no matter what users can still find content if they wish. And in brackets we put the format used and the page in that format the item was found on.

::I believe there was some discussion about this a while back and I agree. The chapter thing would definitely be useful for more reasons than one, and we've already been identifying the early novel reissues and Google Play editions in sources for some time. Labeling every edition is just the logical next step from that. To avoid radically changing to our existing format, however, I'd make the new one something like the following:
Okay, well then forget a logo change. It can stay the way it is. However, the link colors are annoying me. They don't fit in with Reach's color scheme. If it's possible to change the color of the links, consider yellow/gold. -k1ll8 saurav 21:53, September 2, 2010

== Monaco problem ==


Must be done ASAP. I only need the armor in sets, all but the helmets.
There's a problem with Monaco skins across Wikia. For some reason, submenus don't receive the <code>position:absolute</code> setting, so they don't function properly and are near-unusable. Problem affects Firefox 3.6.3 Portable and possibly higher versions as well. Have not tested on other browsers -- can't at this time.
If someone could do that, I be thankful! Every picture will be used with credit. --Da BOI OF DA YEAAARR CHEATCODEMAN 20:12, June 7, 2021 (EDT)


:Just a heads up that this area isnt for requests like this. It is for discussions on the wiki as a whole. It may be better to request help on more public spaces.-[[User:CIA391|CIA391]] ([[User talk:CIA391|talk]]) 20:42, June 7, 2021 (EDT)
Simple fix that you guys could implement for Halopedia specifically:
#navigation div.sub-menu.widget{position:absolute}


::What would you recommend? --Da BOI OF DA YEAAARR CHEATCODEMAN 12:37, June 8, 2021 (EDT)
The problem stems from some (useless) CSS meant for browsers with JavaScript turned off; the CSS sets submenus to <code>position:static</code>. It seems to have been intended to make the menus usable with JS off. It has absolutely no useful effect, however, because the submenus don't even exist on the page when JS is off. (As part of Wikia's ''dreadful'' menu system, the menus are created dynamically, with their contents retrieved via AJAX.) This CSS, then, has no point; it may be safely overriden without further disadvantaging JS-less browsers.


== Missing feature ==
So you can implement the fix listed above and solve the menu issue for Halopedia specifically, or you can wait for Wikia to fix the problem. Alternatively, if anyone here is friends with a Wikia staffer, you can pass the fix onto them and see what they can do for Wikia as a whole.


Halopedia has a missing feature that Wikipedia has, and that's the '''protected edit request'''. It posts something on the talk page like [[Wikipedia:MediaWiki talk:Anoneditwarning#Protected edit request on 8 September 2021|this]]. And when it's done, the person that did it would reply with {{Tem|Done}}. And when the request is posted, the section says "Protected edit request on example date". Please use {{Tem|Support}} if you think it's a good idea, and {{Tem|Oppose}} if you think it's a bad idea for whatever reason.
