Wikia Spotlight[edit]
You might have noticed a new feature called Wikia Spotlight above the ads. We are featuring eight wikis here to see whether this is useful in bringing in new users. Halopedia is one of the first ones to be shown in this feature, and I'd appreciate your feedback at Wikia:Forum:Wikia Spotlight about whether you think this is useful, and whether it has brought any new users to your wiki. The eight wikis we're trying this with first are World Wikia, Marvel Universe, Halo Alpha, Cell Phone Enthusiasts, iPod, PokerWiki, The Film Guide, and RuneScapeWiki.

Welcome Template[edit]
This is just a question, not a recommendation. Should there be a welcome template on this page? -Blemo
- No, because the welcome template should send them here, and this is an information page, not a welcome center. That is what the main page is for. --ED(talk)(gaming) 03:32, 23 June 2007 (UTC)
