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.
HaloWiki, The other Halo Wiki
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) Please add any input you may have here
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)
- Oh good Dragonclaw you changed your personal page. Any chance you can contact Bungie to update this article you wrote?
- I doubt it. First comes the matter of convincing them I'm the same person who submitted it and even if I can do that, I'm not sure they'd care enough. --Dragonclaws 05:03, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
Action Figures
I suggest we add the action figures page to the front page...menu or whatever you would call it. -ED 02:55, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- Which menu though?
What to do about the timeline
As it stands now we have a page called Timeline which has all the events listed year by year. Now User:ED has stated he is going to break it up into various years, see here. However I've noticed that other users have started their own project and are creating entries under a new Timeline Category. What is the format we are to use? What is the policy? --210.174.41.209 01:42, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- User:ED wrote or proposed to the following on the Talk:2552 page:--John117 02:02, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
- I suggest that we make a number of articles for each important year (2517, 2525, 2552, etc.) and put them all into a category: Timeline. At the same time, we could make a "2001 Productions", "2002 Productions", etc to cover the real world history of the developments and releases in the Halo universe. Another idea similar to the one at memory-alpha.org. -ED 03:12, 18 August 2006
- The idea sounds good and I've noticed whoever is making all these pages is using somekind of table on the bottom of the page. I propose creating somekind of template like the year template at Wikipedia for easy navagation.--John117 02:02, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Wikia Spotlight
You might have noticed a new feature called Wikia Spotlight above the ads. We are featuring eight wikis here to see whether this is useful in bringing in new users. Halopedia is one of the first ones to be shown in this feature, and I'd appreciate your feedback at Wikia:Forum:Wikia Spotlight about whether you think this is useful, and whether it has brought any new users to your wiki. The eight wikis we're trying this with first are World Wikia, Marvel Universe, Halopedia, Cell Phone Enthusiasts, iPod, PokerWiki, The Film Guide, and RuneScapeWiki.
