| Hey Subtank, is there really a need to remove very high-res screenshots? There are HUD details (the suit BIOS, for example) that can't be discerned at lower resolutions. Users can choose to open lower-res versions of the image anyway if they don't have the bandwidth to load the full picture, so I don't think reverting to 1920px is necessary. -[[User talk:Kronos101|Kronos101]] 16:54, 2 May 2012 (EDT) | | Hey Subtank, is there really a need to remove very high-res screenshots?

| :That last sentence is the issue: by clicking the link to the image, the page will load up the original size. This is set by default by the wiki. This can, however, be prevented if the user ha set a size limit in their preferences... but the likelihood of anyone actually setting a size limit is very very little. Of course, if we can change the settings to view it only at 1920px as the default size, then this wouldn't be an issue... pester Steve/Porplemontage about it perhaps? :P 16:59, 2 May 2012 (EDT) | | :That last sentence is the issue: by clicking the link to the image, the page will load up the original size.

| ==About the gallery==
| |
| I did that because the wiki's been glitching and reducing the width of galleries. Is it only on my computer? Or is someone going to fix it?

| :Glitching and reducing gallery width? I've checked with IE10, Firefox 17 and Google Chrome (godknowswhatversion), so it might be just your computer. By default, the width should be no wider than ~190px and the image in the box shouldn't be larger than 160px. Specifying the width in the gallery tag would override this, so this might cause this "Glitch" you're experiencing. Maybe you can provide screenshots of various articles and their galleries? — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 04:04, 4 December 2012 (EST)

| From my knowledge, it's been doing this for about three months now. Thel 'Vadam's page was the only one that didn't reduce the gallery width and that's because it was using that code.

| |
| Exactly. So the reason why I applied that code is so that ''it could stay five pics per line'', rather than be reduced to four by the default. With that in mind, can the code be restored?

| :It's simply scaling issue (although not really an "issue") than a glitch: it shows three pics per line for those using 1024px, four pics per line for those using 1280px (I guess you're using this screenwidth) and five pics per line if you're using 1366px (my current display). With that in mind, there is no point of specifying the width in the gallery tag since you would have to do it to all galleries in all articles. This looks like a personal preference than a site-wide "issue". If you prefer to have five pics per line, just add in the following to your [[special:mypage/nimbus.css|nimbus.css page]]:

| :Not a policy; more of an editing style for player-controlled character. It was derived from practices made on both John-117 and Rookie, out of the concern that the player's actions in the game might not reflect the actions of the character in the Halo universe in the same event. Take File:NobleSix_BansheeStun.jpg|this image]] as an example, some players might use the grenade launcher to shoot the Banshees but there are others who ignore them. It is impossible to tell if Six actually engaged the Banshees since it is not in a form of a cutscene, a scripted event, or a required objective. Since it is largely gameplay, the only safe use of screenshots should be from official screenshots (but this can be ignored if contradicted, outdated or otherwise) and cutscenes. Certain in-game screenshots can be considered as "safe" use such as File:NobleBeach.jpg|this image of the beginning of LNoS]] (e.g. directly after the cutscene).

| My dumb computer sometimes can't display Halopedia pages properly and instead causes complicated things like backgrounds, tab boxes, and infoboxes to not show up, with only the text on a plain white background. It doesn't seem to be a browser problem, as it glitches regardless of which browser I use. It's probably some bug with this local network, as it happens only when I visit Halopedia at school and not when at home.

| |
|
| |
| Hi Subtank, I've been doing some of my own tests with the randomiser proposal and I'd like to keep trying things out but my knowledge on css and js is rather limited. I basically have two questions. 1) Do you know of any way to pair a particular logo to a specific background or backgrounds. 2) Is there a way to implement another background image (preferably tileable) behind the banner? Thanks for any help you can offer--[[User:Soul reaper|Soul reaper]] ([[User talk:Soul reaper|talk]]) 12:57, 18 August 2014 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| :#1 - I know of a method but it would be based on the day of the week (i.e. Theme 1 on Monday, Theme 2 on Tuesday). So, essentially this would be limited to only seven paired logo/backgrounds. You want to try it out?
| |
| :#2 - That's simple. Refer to [[User:Subtank/nimbus.css|my CSS page]] and [http://www.halopedia.org/index.php?title=User%3ASubtank%2Fnimbus.css&action=historysubmit&diff=1090095&oldid=1090094 check this dif].

| :::Sorry for the late reply. I'll fetch the code now.

| :::As for your second query, to my knowledge, I don't think that is possible as there is only one element for the background (<code>#body{}</code>) unless you have a script that would replace the background element. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 00:14, 6 September 2014 (EDT)

| ==Image Issue==
| |
|
| |
| Hi Subs. Hope you're lurking about. I was wondering if you could help me with an image gallery issue. Basically, I want to arrange File:Halo3-MasterChief-MA5C.png|these]] File:Halo3-MasterChief-DualSMGs.png|three]] File:Halo3-MasterChief-DualPistols.png|pictures]] side by side at a roughly 300 height. May or not not add a fourth picture. Below are several attempts of mine to arrange them as such, but each attempt has so far not succeeded. Usually the pictures just end up overlapping or not tall enough. The code for each is hidden below; selectively de-hide each on Preview and maybe you can find how to solve the issue. Also of note is that this is supposed to go inside a tab box on my user page, in case that has anything to do with it.

| == Template issue ==
| |
|
| |
| Hey Sub, there's a issue with [[Template:Master Chief Collection Achievements|this template]] that I was hoping you may be able to solve. The "view" link for the main template does not link back to the template (it redlinks to an un-created article), however the "edit" and "discussion" links correctly link to the template. The sub templates included within the main template have the opposite problem, where the "view" link correctly leads to the template, but the "edit" and "discussion" links lead to "Template:Template:Template Name". I tried [https://www.halopedia.org/index.php?title=Template:Halo:_The_Master_Chief_Collection_Achievements&diff=1209013&oldid=1150892 fixing] it, but that only created the redlink issue I mentioned above.

| :Hey Spartacus, fixed your template. It's due to the use of the "colon" (i.e. <code>:</code>) which interfered with the operations of the [[Template:Tnavbar|Tnavbar template]] which creates the <code>v - d - e</code> on the upper left of the Navbox template. I recommend avoiding using colon as part of the template name. I took the liberty of moving the subtemplates. I would also recommend using codes for future subtemplates because (1) they're codes and not intended to be digested by readers and (2) easier to type out. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 11:26, 14 March 2017 (EDT)

| == Pages I created ==
| |
|
| |
| Maybe get rid of the dropship pages but what I did for the ships is the exact same thing as was done for the [[Covenant cruiser at Longhorn Valley]]. And I had nothing to do with that one. In fact, if I hadn't found that one, I wouldn't have tried.--[[User:WarGrowlmon18|WarGrowlmon18]] ([[User talk:WarGrowlmon18|talk]]) 15:19, 5 November 2017 (EST)

| As for notability, aside from Keyes' dropship, the ships I created pages for ''did'' play a big role in the games. One was responsible for the whole fight at [[SWORD Base]] and kind of acted like the final boss of the level. Same for the corvette at New Alexandria. The battlecruiser was notable for its role in the battle at the shipbreaking yards and if you think about it, was at least indirectly responsible for the death of [[SPARTAN-B312]] due to him having to stay behind to shoot it down. And it posed a major threat to the ''Autumn''. Alpha-Nine's Phantom was a major part of two of the ''ODST'' game's levels and played a major role in the team's escape. And had major objectives surrounding it.--[[User:WarGrowlmon18|WarGrowlmon18]] ([[User talk:WarGrowlmon18|talk]]) 15:25, 5 November 2017 (EST)
