Hi I'm arbie-007, I love filling Flood guts full of lead. I also like sniping Grunts. Elites are cool, and so are Flood Buddies. I Have finished Halo CE and Halo 2 on Normal. I've played Halo 3, but don't have it. My favourite weapons are: Shotgun, Sniper Rifle, Spartan Laser and Plasma Rifle. My fav grenades are: Spike Grenades, Plasma and Frag Grenades. My fav vehicle is The Warthog and Scorpion. I like MC and Sgt J because they're cool. The Arbiter is also cool. My fav level in Halo CE is The Maw. My fav level on Halo 2 is Delta Halo. My fav level on Halo 3 is Tsavo Highway. I can't wait 2 play Halo 3:Recon. That's just about me.
Just a question, is there a way to change the color of the outer most border surrounding the infobox?

Color[edit]

Just a question, is there a way to change the color of the outer most border surrounding the infobox? Ιι Ηη Ππ 21:13, 25 November 2011 (EST)

Yes there is a way. Why do you ask?— subtank 07:08, 26 November 2011 (EST)
It's for my user page. I just wanted to know how because the green contrasts heavily with the red on my profile. Ιι Ηη Ππ 10:44, 26 November 2011 (EST)
|BG=subtank 15:17, 26 November 2011 (EST)
Why thank you. Ιι Ηη Ππ 19:14, 27 November 2011 (EST)

Another question, can I change the name at the top of the infobox? If so, how? Thanks, Ιι Ηη Ππ 20:25, 29 November 2011 (EST)

|name=. Please don't add this to the template, since it will automatically generate the name.— subtank 07:06, 30 November 2011 (EST)
Thank you, and I won't. Hope you haven't found me annoying yet!- Ιι Ηη Ππ 15:52, 30 November 2011 (EST)
These queries are somewhat expected. :P — subtank 15:57, 30 November 2011 (EST)

Replacement[edit]

I don't think this template is really necessary seeing as all the information can be conveyed with the character infobox, which we've already been using for Spartan-IV character pages for some time (for one reason or the other); this infobox is little more than a relic from a time we had them for every different category of characters. The infobox's unique "Spartan tag" field isn't ultimately that important seeing as the information will be listed elsewhere on the page anyway, though we could always mention it in the "Service number" field too if it helps. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 00:43, 10 November 2015 (EST)

Agreed. Besides, Spartan tag is actually the Spartan's service number. And we could always add a green variant to the character template for Spartan-IIs if we wanted to. --NightHammer(talk)(contribs) 00:46, 10 November 2015 (EST)
Here is a test. The different colors may take a bit to get used to, but it still works fine enough. --NightHammer(talk)(contribs) 13:15, 10 November 2015 (EST)
The blue works just fine, I think. I don't really see the point in having a different colored variant just for Spartans. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 14:07, 10 November 2015 (EST)
