==Project Warthog==
Because I'm really creative with names. Project Warthog is my own personal project to revamp and redo the current set of Warthog pages on the wiki, to make the information within more easily digestible and less bloated. For full details of my proposal, see [https://www.halopedia.org/Special:WikiForum/The_matter_of_Blitz_and_REQ_cards,_and_associated_pages this thread] on the forums.

Stats for REQ vehicle health can be found [https://twitter.com/zeddikins/status/774917326244241409 here] (backup of the pastebin incase the tweet goes down [https://pastebin.com/YH86QRxB here]).

===Steps===
# Create a page for the [[M12B Warthog]]. The idea of this page is to split Warthog information roughly in half, allowing the [[M12 Warthog]] page to focus primarily on the Warthog version found in ''Halo CE'' through ''Reach'' (and also CEA by extent but you get the idea) while the M12B page focuses on the version found in ''Halo 4'' onwards.. '''DONE!'''
# Create the following page(s) '''DONE!'''
***[[Armored Warthog]]
***[[Trooper Warthog]]
***[[John Forge's Warthog]] maybe?
***[[M914 Recovery Vehicle]] - Information on this vehicle design and the development process/ cut content aspect
***[[M868 Tropic Warthog]] - Information on this vehicle design and the development process/ cut content aspect
***[[M862 Arctic Warthog]] - Information on this vehicle design and the development process/ cut content aspect
***[[M864 Arctic Warthog]] - Information on this vehicle design, and its use on the map Avalanche
***[[Tundra Warthog]] - General summary page for the Tundra Warthog and what it does differently (link it to the M864 and M862 variants too. I'd imagine that the Halo 5 REQ variants likethe ones I list below would be on a similar "tier" to the Tropic/ Arctic warthogs)
***[[Woodland Warthog]] - As per above
***[[ONI Warthog]] - As per above
***[[Urban Warthog]] - As per above
***[[Sword Warthog]]
#Create an overall [[Warthog]] page as part of the wiki's wider "hub pages" project (see: [[Wraith]], [[Lich]], [[Spirit]] for examples). A disambiguation page will be needed too.
#Rework the Warthog navbox to better reflect the nature of Warthog variants. Likely divide M12 and M12B warthogs into different rows. '''DONE!'''
#Perhaps the trickiest, figure out a way to better divide the Warthog pages for the LRV, Gauss and Rocket designs (ongoing).
#Listed at the end but really something to do as the project goes along, use this rework as an opportunity to bring Warthog information over from Halo Nation as part of the two wikis' ongoing merger project. Links left below for future reference.

==Project ODST armour==
Because my naming creativeness knows no bounds. Project to revamp the ODST armours part of the site to resemble the MJOLNIR armor pages more, because why do Spartans deserve cool pages alone?

===Steps===
Creation of the following pages;
*[[ODST/UA personal protective equipment]] (AKA Mickey's armour)
*[[ODST Sharpshooter Battle Dress Uniform]] (AKA Romeo's armour. Needs a better name plus a source for said name)
*[[ODST/Bullfrog Battle Dress Uniform]] (AKA the Bullfrogs' armour. Needs a better name plus source for said name)
*[[S-1 ONI Recon Battle Dress Uniform]] (AKA Dare's armour)
*MJOLNIR GEN2/ ODST (needs a better pagename - possibly ODST-class mjolnir to cover the MKV and MKVI stuff too)
*[[Mark 117 chest plate]] 
*[[M/LBE hard case]]
*[[Mark IV/LBE-AA field case]] (not technically ODST, Jorge's backpack but including anyway)
*UA Collar/ Pauldron
*[[ODST helmet]] (include Dutch's ODST-HS helmet)
