Current Halopedia Administrators:


  • Angela and Splarka are Wikia staff who frequently visit Halopedia. They have sysop rights to every wiki in the network. NOTE: Please do not message them about local issues. The above Administrators will deal with minor problems.

What is an Administrator?

An Administrator, sometimes called a system operator or sysop for short, is a member of the Halopedia community who is charged with maintaining the smooth operation of Halopedia. Administrators alone have the ability to delete pages, protect pages from editing, and block users and IP addresses.

Administrators are essentially the leaders of Halopedia. When you have a problem or question regarding the site, an Administrator will help you any way he or she can.

Can I become an Administrator?

Administrators are selected on an as-needed basis only. As Halopedia grows, more administrators may be needed to assist in its operation. There are no official criteria to become an administrator, however there are a few basic guidelines. When an administrator is needed, one will be selected from the rest of the users who:

  • Has had an account on Halopedia for some time
  • Is an active contributor
  • Has no history of vandalism or abuse of Halopedia

Again, Administrators are only selected when one is needed. When this occours, the current Admins will let the rest of the users know. Until then, it is safe to assume that Halopedia is operating smoothly as it is.

Former Administrators
