Halopedia:Projects lists wiki wide projects that need to be done in order to improve the current state of the wiki. Some projects may require entirely new articles to be created, and some may just require some code to be added to certain parts of the wiki. The Manual of Style still matter here, so it is recommended that users become acquainted with those prior to working on a project. For past projects, see here.
Project MOS (Ongoing)
- Main articles: Manual of Style Presentation, Halopedia:Manual of Style
This Manual of Style for Halopedia is a guide for editors on how to properly format Halopedia articles and an effort to overcome these problems by providing an itemized list of examples of the right way to write articles. In the interests of keeping the articles as clean, concise and professional as possible, all wiki contributors should strive for consistency of content. That is, articles of a similar type should follow a similar layout in order to be consistent.
