'''Reason''': This is actually my second attempt at getting this article to featured status. Finally found time to finish this up. Effectively rewrote the article, making it completely comprehensive and updated it with new sources. Filled it with quotes and quality pictures as well, not to mention updated citations throughout the article.
'''Reason:''' Concisely-written. Might as well promote this to the front page. Killing hundreds of birds with a stone...

== [[Outbreak on Installation 00]] ==
'''Reason''': Haven't had a featured in a while, I'm probably gonna start highlighting some of the articles worked on over the past year by myself and others, as a lot of overhauls and stuff have been made recently. Figured I'd start off with one that takes place most recently in the timeline. Otherwise, this article collates every source I was able to find on the matter and is pretty comprehensive as far as the Flood outbreak can go.

Considering E3 2012 starts next week and its been confirmed that plenty of information about Campaign, War Games, and Spartan Ops will be released, I suggest that we hold off any vote until the page is normalized and the editing consistency calms down after new information editing and rewrites. {{User:Grizzlei/Sig}}
*{{Support}} I don't really know what this is but sounds good. ;P ((Date of Vote: 2/22/2021))

*{{support}} The M79 Rocket Launcher, though only appearing in Halo Reach, 4, 5, and Infinite, was a great inclusion when Halo Reach came out. Yes, it was a bit janky back then, but it's served its uses and has been an incredible exception within Halo.
