History of Halopedia

Help US!

Want to help out and make this site a better place? Here are a list of tasks that need to be done.

Want to become an Admin?

Search_logo.png

Can we change the Image:Search_logo.png link so that it doesn't go to the Wikia Home page. On Wookieepedia when you click on their Search_logo.png it takes you to their Advanced Search Page. Can we change our link so that when you click the Search_logo.png it also goes to the advanced search page? --John117 02:35, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

Minor Star Ships

Should all Star Ship Stubs be moved to a central page? As shown for example in, Minor Star Ships? Add your opinion on the Talk:Minor Star Ships page.

Game Types

Our Game types are lacking as shown by the huge amount of stubs in the Category:Stub-Games. HaloWiki Game Types has a bunch of GNU articles that we can copy over. Anyone up for the task or should we just include a link to Halowiki instead?--210.174.41.209 03:49, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Google hits the OLD Halopedia

I think this is a real problem. When you google Halopedia you get the old Halopedia address as the number one hit site. Is there anyway of creating a redirect to here? Before when Halopedia was down there was a page with a few words. Could that be recreated so that it is a page that redirects here?

As of now it is directed to some shopping center links, how long before its sold to a porn site?

To preempt this we need to get sites to update their links so that they point to here. This includes personal pages like Dragonclaw's personal page so that next time google trawls through the internet everything will point here. --John117 06:20, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

-==Admin policy==
-We need to state a clear admin policy we can't just be passing out admin rights to everyone.   Now with more admins we don't know if they're going to just give admin privilages to all their friends, people the community hasn't chosen.  We need a clear policy of voting in New Admins. --[[User:210.174.41.209|210.174.41.209]] 00:23, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
-:There is only one new admin, and that is me. I have been part of Halopedia for almost a year now, and I can assure you, I would not just randomly give out admin privledges. I was given them because, as per a concern I have had over the past year, there has been only one admin actively monitoring the site. I don't intend to make new admins without consulting Dragonclaws. In fact I leave it up to him entirely if he wants more admins. The general policy is stated on [[Halopedia:Administrators]].  -[[User:ED|ED]] 02:50, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
