The policy on blogs was established in 2008 to prevent the recent changes page being filled with poor-quality and useless blogs (eg. "LAWL I MADE A BLOG"). It was decided that the following criteria should be met:
#It should be of appropriate length
#It should be well-written
#It should be related to Halo; Halopedia or a major aspect of the Halo community
#It should not be an advertisement for a product; website or Halo clan
 
I'll look for the page; we removed a lot of policy pages after Halopedia, the community being hosted by this wiki, left the site, removing policies that no longer applied. I'm sure I've read it recently, and even asked 118 to link to it on the community-corner so that bloggers can't file the exact complaint/question you just filed out.-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 18:05, April 24, 2011 (UTC)''

Are getting way out of control. The pictures were understandible, but how can you accidently create a new page ? If I were you I would be more careful becuase you look like your hogging points.

That was the second mistake I made and immediatly restore it, so I don't see the point. And that new page wasn't created by me, but someone on my laptop while I wasn't looking. The instant I noticed it I marked it for deletion. [[User talk:Wilc0|Wilc0]] 12:04, April 29, 2011 (UTC)

(also posted on Forerunner's talk page) I don't think Forerunner actually runs a bot (correct me if I'm mistaken), and there are any active bot-flagged accounts on the wiki. I myself have one, and I'd be happy to make this kind of change.

The policy on blogs was established in 2008 to prevent the recent changes page being filled with poor-quality and useless blogs (eg. "LAWL I MADE A BLOG"). It was decided that the following criteria should be met:

  1. It should be of appropriate length
  2. It should be well-written
  3. It should be related to Halo; Halopedia or a major aspect of the Halo community
  4. It should not be an advertisement for a product; website or Halo clan

I'll look for the page; we removed a lot of policy pages after Halopedia, the community being hosted by this wiki, left the site, removing policies that no longer applied.
