Hey there. I posted this on CommanderTony's page also. I am currently an Administrator on the Dragon Ball Wiki and was wondering, how you have configured all of these additional features, the customisation on the user pages. Like the Gifts, Xbox Live Gamertag, Add as Friend, Points and Rank System, Awards, overall look of user pages, Board, Statistics, Quiz's etc etc. Also, what is large interactive box that appears on [http://halopedian.com/User:CommanderTony this] page? I would quite like to know about this. I'd really appreciate any information you can give me, if its not to much trouble. Many thanks. SSJ4 Lewich

Hey, I just wanted to say that I'm coming back to this wikia after leaving to go to the *shudders* Call of Duty wikia, but I have seen the light and found out that it is a terrible, unorganised mess. They're trying to run a professional wikia and you have Admins raging at people, blogs blocking the Recent Changes meaning important things don't get through and basically, its just full of 12 year old CoD noobs. I hope you look foward to having me back on the team!

I just had a quick question regarding the Spoiler policy for Reach. Well, two actually:

2) Does it matter if the title in itself is a spoiler? For example, let's say I created an article called "The Battle of Installation 00" a day after the release of Halo 3. According to the Spoiler policy, the <nowiki>{{HideSpoilers}}</nowiki> template should solve any issues w/ someone who hasn't bought the game, but in this case, the title itself could ruin the game for them.

Yeah, I think it's time to clarify that not all ships in the Halo Universe are starships. Thus, I think this is the time to fix this error that was created back in 2007. The next plan would be to implement [[Template:Ship class infobox]] into Class-specific vessels (i.e. ''Ket''-pattern battlecruiser, UNSC frigate). This does not include individual ships (i.e. UNSC Forward Unto Dawn). This is simply to eliminate redundancy due to overuse of similar field and information.

Hey, I see what you mean, that [[Plasma turrets]] fire plasma torpedoes, but if you go on the {{Pattern|Ket|battlecruiser}} page it mentions the armaments of having 'plasma torpedo launchers'. This is actually an error - you are right - plasma turrets are capable of firing other things. Therefore I think page that makes reference to a specific 'plasma torpedo launcher' should be edited to plasma turrets. Agreed? [[User talk:AlexB1001|AlexB1001]] 11:44, 7 December 2010 (EST)

I admittedly didn't think this problem would pop up. I instructed Datadeleter and several other users to mark those files for deletion so I could mop them up with Nicbot to make the job easier (its impossible to delete all those files with a human admin). As it is I never realised some files were used in templates or why they're showing up as unused when they're not, so I'll take the blame for that one. In the meantime I advise the editors to continue with care, while is there some way we list out all of the images that are actually in-use? -   [[User:Nicmavr|<span style="color:DarkGoldenrod; font-weight:bold; font-family:Arial">Nìcmávr</span>]] ^{<span style="color:DarkGoldenrod">(</span>[[User Talk:Nicmavr|<span style="color:DarkGoldenrod; font-weight:bold">Tálk</span>]]<span style="color:DarkGoldenrod">)</span>} 13:49, 19 December 2010 (EST)

:Could we make a template, say something similar to [[wikipedia:Template:Hang on|the "hang on" template]] on Wikipedia, so that it says "This image, while unused, is <good-quality/is already being used/should be used in an article>". Then, we could make a category similar to [[Special:Wantedpages]] that would show images that needed to be added into articles. The template could also be added onto the Era images, etc, so they don't get deleted.

:We've considered this in the past (in fact we previously had the Harvest ship under the Covenant battleship page) but because of the lack of sufficient proof stating they're indeed the same—as well as the different designation given for the Harvest ship in ''Evolutions''—we treat the two ships as different.

Within all of the current Halo lore we have available to us it appears pretty obvious that any and all SPARTANS within GEN2 gear are fairly similar in their physical capabilities; therefore, the existing assumptions within the page suggesting otherwise should be clarified to represent speculations verses facts. Furthermore and most importantly, lore points to the genetics, robustness, and fortitude of a particular Spartan candidate making up most of their differences, but it also acknowledges that the time they've had to acclimate themselves to their augmented body, the type of training they've had, and any real world experiences go a long way toward unmasking their full potential too. What is also known is that the advancements in augmentation with regards to the SPARTAN-IV program have not only allowed for the past strict guidelines to be done away with allowing less than ideal candidates to receive custom-tailored enhancements meant to bring them to the closest margin possible of the previous Spartan programs' physical and mental results. This knowledge also signifies that were a SPARTAN-IV candidate to possess the genetics, robustness, and fortitude to have been a candidate for the predecessor programs that they could potentially be just as impressive as a SPARTAN-II or III out of Armor once fully acclimated to their augmentations and well trained; hell, even the additional experimental augmentations that were tried during the prototype phase of the program speaks volumes of the maximum potential of these newer augmentations despite the terrible failure rate which ended their inclusion. Anyways, my point is that the SPARTAN-IV augmentation page is full of incorrect assumptions suggesting that '''all''' SPARTAN-IVs are inferior to those from the predecessor programs. {{Unsigned|67.52.246.42}}

::@Morhek: well said, you covered pretty much what I was going to say anyway. To add to the above, there's very little justification for adding the hypothetical Spartan-IVs who could reach S-II levels of prowess outside armor to the page because that's exactly what they are - hypothetical. To date, there are two statements (that I know of) from Frank O'Connor stating that a SPARTAN-IV is only equal to an S-II in armor while the latter would ''destroy'' the former outside of it. This was especially clear in Frankie's more recent NeoGaf post (which should, by the way, be added to the sources on the S-IV augmentation page). Other than that, your edit to the page contained quite a bit of speculation and information that is at best up to interpretation, as well as extraneous material that is already covered on other pages, which is the reason I trimmed some of it down. I did change some of the wordings on the page to make it more vague, however. But there's no reason to dispute the II/IV comparison when it comes straight from the horse's mouth and there's nothing to contradict it in other sources. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue">'''Jugus'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]])</small> 09:00, 26 July 2015 (EDT)

:I'm not dismissing genetics as a contributing factor here; I'm merely saying it doesn't really make any sense to have been the only selection criterion in that scenario, especially when you're picking people based on abstract traits like leadership, sharpshooting, reconnaissance, etc - how do you even begin to measure those from genes alone? In many cases a natural inclination and practical skill will likely correlate, but the thing about genetics is that they don't always express themselves in clear-cut ways and there are other, random factors which may influence the outcome. (This is obviously different from the program's selection criteria as a whole, which were about augmentation survival rates, thus making genetics of paramount importance in that case.)

 

 

:I do frequent the Halo Archive at least and have posted on Reddit a few times (where I think I actually discussed this very topic with you once). --[[User:Jugus|Jugus]] ([[User talk:Jugus|talk]]) 00:29, 6 April 2017 (EDT)

 

 

 

:That's what I was saying. Even though they had access to the candidates' genetic records from the start, most of the sources that describe their selection (such as Jun's bio quoted above) are written in a way that gives the implication they were set apart from their companies only after their training. These things don't have to be mutually exclusive; most likely the final decision was up to a combination of inborn potential (which Kurt and co. would have known from the onset) and skill as observed in practice (which could only be ascertained after training). This leaves more wiggle room for other factors which realistically affect a person's development, and as I said, I don't see how one can divine skills like sniping, leadership, etc. from genes alone.

Wondering if you can help me out.  I'm Agent C from Nukapedia, the Fallout wiki that is still on Wikia.  I don't know if you've [https://kotaku.com/fallout-fans-resist-wikias-attempt-to-pivot-to-video-1804145954 heard about our little problem with wikia], and we're looking at all available options.  I was wondering if someone from when your wiki split/move/fork/(whatever the preferred term is) was around to talk to us about the technical aspects of it, as we are considering all available options.  I see your wiki's using Discord, and we've found it useful for the process, you can reach me (and the guys who are looking into this option) [https://discord.gg/MYgS75y here on ours]. Thanks for any help you and your guys can offer. [[User:Agent c|Agent c]] ([[User talk:Agent c|talk]]) 17:08, 12 September 2017 (EDT)

Due to work situations and a lack of means to keep up with current Halo media, I'm afraid I can't be involved as a Halopedia administrator anymore. My apologies for exiting and for taking this long to say so, and thanks a bunch to you and this wiki's community.
