Halo Nation User?

Hey there. I have a question. Are you the user Spartacus0898 from Halo Nation? Because your username looks familiar.

Regards. Coolbuddy379 • talk • contribs 04:20, 13 March 2015 (EDT)

Yeah, that's me. Welcome to Halopedia!--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 11:22, 13 March 2015 (EDT)

Image

How can I add a image for my profile page? I don't know. Can you please help me? Thanks in advance. Regards. Coolbuddy379 • talk • contribs 08:04, 14 March 2015 (EDT)

Also, can you please once check the Halo: Reach page? I think it is some vandal.

Regards. Coolbuddy379 • talk • contribs 08:04, 14 March 2015 (EDT)

Vandalism was taken care of, thanks for the heads up. For adding images, use the "Upload file" link on the sidebar to upload your image. Second, add the following to your user page:

[[File:<-Image name here->]]

You can also specify what side of the page you want the image by adding |right |center |left. Also, be sure to mark your images as personal images by adding {{Personal-image}} to the file. Hope this helps.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 11:42, 14 March 2015 (EDT)

Deleted Sub-Category redirects

The Category:Melee Weapons and Category:Human Weapons have live links from the Category:Weapons page. Not sure if they need to be remade as redirects or if there's a way to drop them from the main category page. They were replaced by Category:Melee weapons and Category:Human weapons. 173.89.224.81 15:05, 13 May 2015 (EDT)

The categories were replaced because it's only necessary to capitalize the first word of the title. As far as the links go, I think they were removed already. Thanks for the heads up.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 19:32, 13 May 2015 (EDT)

No, the links are still there - that's what I was saying. If you go to the Category:Weapons page and click them you'll see what I mean. They link to the deleted pages instead of the new ones. 173.89.224.81 10:16, 14 May 2015 (EDT)

Oscar-129's First Appearance

Heya buddy. I'd hate to have our first conversation in a long time to be an edit war, so I've decided to bring it here. In Homecoming, we see all of the five S-II escapees in a flashback scene (well, as I mentioned in my edit summary, one of the escapees only had his arm in the frame, but I believe it constitutes as an appearance). I would compare this situation to that of Benjamin Giraud (or other unnamed minor characters), although an article of Oscar-129 prior to the release of Hunt the Truth would have had barely any material to make up a page. In both situations, the character would have "First Appearance" in the first unnamed appearance, followed by a named appearance in Hunt the Truth. Thus, I think the list of appearance section for Oscar-129 would look something like:

• Halo Legends
  • Homecoming (Flashback) (First appearance)
• Hunt the Truth (Mentioned only)

Do let me know what you think! —SPARTAN331 19:20, 3 June 2015 (EDT)

I totally forgot about that flashback scene in Homecoming when I made that edit, but yeah, I agree with your point and idea. Long time no see! :P --Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 11:36, 4 June 2015 (EDT)

Rename me ?

Hi, It's possible to rename me "Leosoras "? This is the nickname that I use the most. Oromisor (talk) 17:19, 22 July 2015 (EDT)

Sure thing.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 10:53, 23 July 2015 (EDT)

Thanks Leosoras (talk) 04:58, 26 July 2015 (EDT)

Name change

Mind changing my name to "Rock-O-Jello"? That's what I'm known as most. Some bookish girl. Wikia stinks. 16:04, 24 September 2015 (EDT)

Done - In the future, all requests must go here. I will no longer accept any requests on my talk page.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 12:48, 26 September 2015 (EDT)

Gallery

Hey Spartacus, do you know if there is a limit to how much images can go into a single gallery? Alertfiend - Team Chief 20:20, 4 December 2015 (EST)

To weigh in here, I don't think there is an actual set limit on the amount of images per gallery, but we should avoid putting too much. By rule of thumb, I typically try to have no more than 30 images in each gallery, as I find it tends to be a bit cluttered after that. It's not really necessary to fill up a gallery just because we can, especially when there is a gallery category. When a character or object appears enough (Master Chief or the Arbiter) and inevitably ends up with a lot of images, we usually try to limit one image to the gallery from each media source. --NightHammer^{(talk)(contribs)} 21:49, 4 December 2015 (EST)

As per NightHammer. Plus, the more images there are in a gallery, the slower the article will tend to load depending on the connection speed.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 00:11, 5 December 2015 (EST)
