Halopedia talk:Halopedian

Wookipedia
I thought it would be a good idea to show a sort of roster similiar to Wookipedia: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Wookipedian. Everyone add your name to the list! --JohnSpartan117 03:43, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks to whoever changed the table of contents. Also, for you Dragonclaws, I added the Talk link and contributions link. --JohnSpartan117 04:05, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Question
Should we add other known Halopedians to the list ourselves? Most people don't know about this page, and it could be useful. -ED 01:48, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Lets make it known, could you give a message to the active members?--JohnSpartan117 04:41, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Just put a message on our Communist Centre, or Talk:Main Page--05:47, 2 October 2006 (UTC)
 * If they want to put there name up they can. If people want to know you is making all the edits the can check recent history or the Halopedia:Stats page --04:52, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Removal?
do we remove inactive Halopedians? the list is getting full of users who don't actually contribute here anymore. -- ED ( talk )(gaming) 05:34, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, got some cleanup to do, anyway, do you think Halopedia will still be active after halo 3 has been out? I hope so. ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 12:28, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

I think it will be more active after halo 3 and halo wars comes out. Peace. I ' m  O n  F i r e !    FeedTheFlame    Wa tc hM yS mo <font color=DimGray>ke  00:17, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

I hope you're right, but it would die down soon after they had enough of Halo and start on other Xbox games.ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 06:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * There's 2 Halo games and a Halo movie coming out after Halo 3. Plus books. -- demon spawn  ED  06:25, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

I said, if they have enough about Halo, that includes the ones you've mentionedΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 06:27, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * True. But I bet those games won't be the end of Halo. Anyways, bigger wiki communities manage to stay strong even after most of the information they can have has been added...just look at memory alpha. Still, if Gears of War expands the same way Halo did, I imagine the GoW wiki will be as big and active as ours in a few years. -- demon spawn  ED  06:30, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

I always support Halopedia, ever since I enter this wikia myself. It a very good example you've took ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ 12:39, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

?
can anyone be on the list, or only the "elite"( AKA: edits by the thousand) sign there name? SpecOps ODST com link 00:32, 4 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh no, any registered user can sign. -- demon spawn  ED  06:27, 4 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Not anyone who just edits a couple times and then leaves, tho, or anyone who edits thousands of times and then leaves, but almost anyone, as I understand it. -- NOTASTAFF  GPT ( talk )( eating ) 06:29, 4 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Well, people like that have put themselves on the list...which is why I was wondering if we should clean it or anything.-- demon spawn  ED  06:32, 4 August 2007 (UTC)


 * I think we should clean it--just go through it every once in a while, and anyone who hasn't editted in, say, three months, get's the boot until they return, if they return? Sound good? Savvy? Savvy is a funny word. =P -- NOTASTAFF  GPT ( talk )( eating ) 06:35, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * A splendid idea. Wait...savvy? the things said here at 2am...are the most random ever.-- demon spawn  ED  06:42, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Pic
Who the heck suggest that we should put your own pic on the Halopedia page!

Categories
As we are getting up there in numbers, it occurs to me that perhaps we should follow Wikipedia's lead and use the categories as a primary means of listing the users? --<font color="#4D56B1">Dragon<font color="#F28500">c laws (<font color="#4D56B1">talk ) 09:28, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Organization
This might just be me and my love of categorizing and junk, but would anyone be opposed to me 'alphabetizing' the sections?Firstcabalist088 21:25, 5 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I've already alphabetized the R section. I'm sure no one has any objections. I can find some time to help you do the others if you want.--Emblem 1.jpg<font color="Blue">Rusty <font color="Red">- <font color="Blue">112 04:54, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

Redlink cleanup
As you can see, this page is pretty cluttered with links to userpages that no longer exist. If nobody has any objections I'll soon be trimming down the list and deleting the users who don't exist anymore.--  Rusty  -  112  11:51, 17 June 2012 (EDT)
 * Can we keep the names at least? Some members were very influential, and shouldn't be deleted from the list... ...right? — S331 Bubbleshieldhud.svg(COM • Mission Log • Profile) 13:02, 17 June 2012 (EDT)
 * I'd keep former admins and rollbackers on the list. Just change redlinks for their userpages into a link to their contributions, like how we have it for former admins here-- Spartacus  ('''<font color="Grey">Talk 13:49, 17 June 2012 (EDT)
 * I'm deleting the redlinked names of anyone who has fewer than 250 edits and hasn't made an edit in the last year.--Emblem 1.jpg  Rusty  -  112  21:22, 17 June 2012 (EDT)
 * Sounds good.-- Spartacus  ('''<font color="Grey">Talk 21:24, 17 June 2012 (EDT)

Automation
I've been noticing ALOT of new user accounts being created this year yet they haven't shown up on the page (for obvious reasons). Should this page be changed to be automated? In other words, when someone creates a new account they automatically show up on the page rather than them having to automatically add themselves.-- Killamint  [<font color="Red">Comm |<font color="Black">Files ] 13:02, 17 September 2012 (EDT)
 * This is more or less meant to be a list users voluntarily add themselves to. If it had an automated (bot) additions to it, the list would be ridiculously long and have a lot more redlinks than it does now.-- Spartacus,   Halopedia Administrator  <font color="Black">Talk 13:52, 17 September 2012 (EDT)


 * Yeah and if that was the goal we would just link to the user list. -- 13:56, 17 September 2012 (EDT)


 * I totally forgot about that list. That makes complete sense. To be honest though, I thought that accounts would get deleted rather than becoming red links on the User list when someone deletes their account.-- Killamint  [<font color="Red">Comm |<font color="Black">Files ] 17:58, 17 September 2012 (EDT)
