About Me Version 1.1

This is my first version of my userwiki. I hope to make this more useful for users who wish to use this to their advantage so I can help them.

Howdy folks I am CIA391, but y'all can call me Chris.

I am a gamer who tries to keep on top of things. If you have any questions please PM me and I will try my best to answer. Or I will show you to someone who can help.

I am rather active here. And will always respond if talked too. You may reach me here, on Halo Waypoint, on Halo Archive, on Twitter, or through the Halopedia Discord.

I personally love a good chat. I hope we can all be friends. (^-^)/

Halopedia improvement project

Step 1 Tidy up

This step is getting the wiki in a usable state and allows us to make radical changes.

1. Tidy the wiki by getting majority of the pages in the Special Pages areas tidy.
2. Clear out Project Userbox, and tidy up the mess it causes.
3. Clear out old forums and other group related materials predating 2012. This allows us to have a clean slate.

Step 2 Policy's and Rules

This step is getting the wiki rules, policies, guidelines, and other similar stuff up to date.

1. Get the Admin, Patroller, Rollbacker and other roles and ranks more defined.
2. Get the Policies more defined and updated.
3. Get the Guidelines more defined and updated.

Step 3 Improve the Main page

This step is improving the main page of the wiki and its navigation bar.

1. Talk possible improvements with admins.
2. Talk possible improvements with Patrollers and Rollbackers.
3. Implement said improvements.
4. Ask for possible improvements from Halopedians and make a list.
5. Keep list for future updates.

Step 4 Implement general Template/Category/File naming conventions

This step is to improve and implement our Template/Category/File naming conventions we have.

1. Decide what will be used.
2. Start using the new conventions
3. Update old names to suit the new conventions.

Step 4 Internal Community improvement

This step is getting the wiki community fun

1. Add community events on the wiki.
- 1.1. Monthly polls.(Example)
- 1.2. Weekly featured articles/pictures/videos for users to vote for.(rotate them monthly so the homepage is more dynamic)
- 1.3. Aprils fools day and other holiday celebrations.(we make a special Wiki skin for the holidays)
2. Make more dynamic news. More detailed and have a image to help.
3. Community Update on the Homepage.
4. Be welcoming to new members.

Step 5 External Community improvement

This step is to help build relations with other communities

1. Tidy and add to the Halopedia Community Portal using my other Community hubs as a example.
2. Use the Community portal to add community's to the Sidebar.
3. Start a Halopedia Twitter and Facebook and give admins access to them.
4. Add a bot to the Twitter and possibly Facebook so some automated posts are done to make life easier on the admins.
5. Talk with other groups if we can work with them on stuff.

Step 6 Get more Patrollers and Rollbackers

This step is to help encourage members to become Rollbackers and Patrollers.

===Step 7

Step 7 Content

This step is generally what already happens, but is here so people have stuff to work on.
