In most instances on the wiki, sections on the game page give an overview on the topic and provide a link to the topic page which gives more fleshed out and thorough information. In this case it's the reverse. Rather than a simple copy-paste, I think we should move some of the Infinity info from the Halo 4 page, to here. This page should also feature the maps template. This is just my opinion, but in its current state, this article may as well be a redirect to the section on the Halo 4 page.--[[User talk:Soul reaper|Soul reaper]] 06:45, 1 September 2012 (EDT) | In most instances on the wiki, sections on the game page give an overview on the topic and provide a link to the topic page which gives more fleshed out and thorough information.

Honestly, I don't think the template is necessary since it has a limited, trivial and non-crucial use. Wouldn't it be better to present the maps in the traditional, yet simplistic bullet-style format like the rest of the articles? Two other reasons is the potential issue of scalability and compatibility (''when'' the wiki receives a mobile skin, the table will be mangled), and my personal rule to "avoid template creep".— <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span> 09:34, 3 July 2013 (EDT) | |||

Rename
According to this[1], specificaly the sentence "The competitive multiplayer modes of Halo 4 are known as War Games", Multi-Player in Halo 4 is called War Games. - DefeatingLine 20:13, 20 May 2012 (EDT)
- Yes, competitive multiplayer is known as War Games. Meanwhile, Infinity includes both War Games and the cooperative Spartan Ops. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 00:39, 21 May 2012 (EDT)
I talked to David Ellis (the guy behind Spartan Ops) last night during Waypoint's playdate and I asked him about this. Infinity is just the general multiplayer name. Infinity contains War Games and Spartan Ops. So it looks like this:
- Campaign
- Infinity
- Spartan Ops
- War Games
- Big Team Battle
- Rumble Pit
- etc.
- Forge
- Theater

Expanding the article
In most instances on the wiki, sections on the game page give an overview on the topic and provide a link to the topic page which gives more fleshed out and thorough information. In this case it's the reverse. Rather than a simple copy-paste, I think we should move some of the Infinity info from the Halo 4 page, to here. This page should also feature the maps template. This is just my opinion, but in its current state, this article may as well be a redirect to the section on the Halo 4 page.--Soul reaper 06:45, 1 September 2012 (EDT)
Regarding the use of Template:Halo 4 War Games Main
Honestly, I don't think the template is necessary since it has a limited, trivial and non-crucial use. Wouldn't it be better to present the maps in the traditional, yet simplistic bullet-style format like the rest of the articles? Two other reasons is the potential issue of scalability and compatibility (when the wiki receives a mobile skin, the table will be mangled), and my personal rule to "avoid template creep".— subtank 09:34, 3 July 2013 (EDT)
