To create a page, you need to make a link to it. Go to a related article and edit the page, creating a link to it. (In this case, "<nowiki>Unidentified Forerunner millipede</nowiki>") I'll make a link right here on your page: Unidentified Forerunner millipede. Press it, and you will be redirected to a page which says the article doesn't exist. Look at the bottom of the page, and you should see "Create this page!". Press it, and create the article. :D | To create a page, you need to make a link to it. Go to a related article and edit the page, creating a link to it.

Except for the main section, there are a few things to make sure you include in the article: "Era", "List of appearances" and "Sources". "Era" means which part of the Halo timeline the object appeared in. Insert "<nowiki>{{era|}}</nowiki>" into the top of the article. Since the millipede appeared in the Forerunner times, insert "Forerunner" between the <nowiki>"{{era|" and "}}"</nowiki>. "List of appearances" is pretty much self-explanatory, so I won't explain it. "Sources" is a bit more complicated: After you added certain information in the article, put "<nowiki><ref></ref></nowiki>" after the sentence, and between <nowiki><ref> and </ref></nowiki>, type the source of the statement. In this case, it's page 335 of Halo: Cryptum. Inserting "<nowiki>'''Halo: Cryptum''', ''''Chapter ??''", ''page 335''</nowiki>" there will create a source for the article (Note that I typed Chapter ?? because I don't know which chapter that page 335 is in, so replace it with the actual chapter number). Most important thing about citing your edits is to make sure you have a section named "Sources" and have "<nowiki> | Except for the main section, there are a few things to make sure you include in the article: "Era", "List of appearances" and "Sources".
