Be part of Community Links?

How does a wiki become a part of the Community Links? (Like Halo Machinima Wiki per say) ~Jman98~ 19:23, 20 March 2012 (EDT)

Guess it would be subjected to notability (i.e. at least one years old?). Somebody ought to create what makes a community website notable to be in the table. That aside, we could promote it as long as it stays active. — subtank 19:36, 20 March 2012 (EDT)

Hmm, yeah I see what you're saying. I was wondering since there's already a template linking to our Wiki (Halo Machinima), that it could become part of the community links, give it more notability. ~Jman98~ 23:54, 20 March 2012 (EDT)

I think there is one... but there hasn't been an increase activity on notable machinimas. However, seeing that the machinima wiki is seeing some activity and under a new management, I don't see why we can't reestablish the connection again and add it in the community weblinks.— subtank 07:16, 21 March 2012 (EDT)

Glad we see eye-to-eye. The wiki runs basically like this: If you have a Machinima, and it actually exists on a site like YouTube and it's watchable, then you can make a page for it. There's other things, though that's the primary goal. ~Jman98~ 01:01, 22 March 2012 (EDT)

Upload New Images: Where...?

I just noticed the Upload New Images link just got removed from the Main Page, and I don't see it anywhere here, like I would expect it to be. Can someone help? --Xamikaze330 20:18, 20 March 2012 (EDT)Xamikaze330

It's still there under the Community tab. Alternatively, you can check for newly uploaded image in this page and you can upload some by referring to the navigation sidebar (beside Special Pages, underneath Preferences).— subtank 20:21, 20 March 2012 (EDT)

Well, I still can't see it anywhere in the Community page itself, but I do see it in the sidebar, as you said. I don't know; I kinda feel like someone should add that somewhere, just in case someone gets confused like I was. By the way, just so that not just anyone could edit this community page, shouldn't it be protected to be edited only by administrators and patrollers? Just a thought. --Xamikaze330 20:29, 20 March 2012 (EDT)Xamikaze330

Well, as per your previous comment on Talk:Main Page, I readded Special:NewFiles and the Upload New Images on the Main Page; this is located under the Community tab. But as for your comment on adding the page in this Community page... noted. This community page is still under construction, so it's best to allow anyone to correct any mistakes made.— subtank 20:33, 20 March 2012 (EDT)

Okay. I guess I'll leave it at that then. Thanks. --Xamikaze330 21:16, 20 March 2012 (EDT)Xamikaze330

Automatic refresh feature

I was wondering: should we implement an Auto-refresh button on the Recent Changes page for easier patrol of recent article changes, rather than manually refreshing the page 24/7? In my opinion, it would make patrolling pages a lot easier for users. vadske@halopedia 21:56, 29 November 2012 (EST)

Wouldn't be a bad idea in my opinion. Though, the guy to ask about this would be Steve.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 22:01, 29 November 2012 (EST)

Timeline

Is there anyway we can incorporate thistimeline? I saw it on Waypoint, and thought this would be great here. any thoughts?--Weeping Angel (talk) 19:26, 10 May 2013 (EDT)

Halo.fr

Halo.fr, a French fansite operating since the days of Halo 2 !

Not since Halo 2, but since December 2001 ! Is it possible to change ?

Corrected.— subtank 09:43, 13 August 2013 (EDT)

Haloring.org

I removed the link to haloring.org, as the URL now redirects to Halosphere.net, which is some Halo-themed MMORPG game. Any idea if the site still exists at a different URL?--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 16:21, 23 November 2013 (EST)
