The '''Halopedia Improvement Project''' is a community project to help tidy, improve, and build the community of Halopedia in three main phases. Once this project makes it to Phase 3 it will be discontinued and fused with the ''[[Halopedia:Projects/Improvement|Article Improvement Drive]]'' project due to the similar nature of Phase 3 and that project itself. If you have any improvements for this project please suggest them on the [[Halopedia talk:Projects/Overall|project's talk page]]. | |||
