==[[Meridian]] (Approved)==
== [[Operation: RETRIBUTION]] (Approved) ==
'''Reason''': Actually kind of happy with how this article turned out. An informative article on Meridian's history, geography, government, economy, and culture with some behind the scenes trivia. The article is properly referenced and comprehensive. Lots of quotes and images (special thanks to Chronarch) too.
Finally finished with this. Check it out.{{Unsigned|TheEld}}

==[[San'Shyuum]] (Approved)==
== [[Outbreak on Installation 00]] ==
'''Reason''': Well-sourced (a loooot of sources), as many decent quotes as I could find, comprehensive, and lots of nice pics. I've been working on this article for a while and ''Pokemon Go'' didn't help me at all, but I finally sat down today to finish it and I think it turned out pretty good. The quote I used for the "Reproduction and life cycle" section is pretty creepy though.
'''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.

*{{Oppose}} - This article is not even anywhere close to being there. ((Reply from Spr1ft17)): What does that even mean?
*However, should we add the image of Tem'Bhetek to the post-war section? Also, the image of the reformists is technically from the San'Shyuum meeting the Sangheili on Ulgethon, isn't it? Not the time of the schism. -Japeth555
**For Tem, I was thinking about it, but I'd rather wait until we get a higher quality one from ''Mythos''. To be honest, that's one of the reasons why I haven't bothered nominating his article to be featured either, as I prefer them to have the best pics possible. As for the Reformists, you're right, but I just threw it in there to give readers an idea as to what the Reformists looked like. They are still Reformists after all. --[[User:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">'''NightHammer'''</span>]]''<sup>[[User talk:NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(talk)</span>]]</sup><sup>[[Special:Contributions/NightHammer|<span style="color: #2B1AAA;">(contribs)</span>]]</sup>'' 18:49, 13 July 2016 (EDT)

===Comments===
== [[M79 rocket launcher]] ==
I disagree. The notion that the SoS and the UNSC were jointly controlling it and watching for the Flood still seems like it could have been a mistake where installation 05 was meant instead. Also, there is not note about how it is curious that Lasky didn't bring 07 up in Halo 4 when he mentioned Halo rings under UNSC control, such as 05 and 03. I think there are still too many problems here. [[User:Japeth555|Japeth555]] ([[User talk:Japeth555|talk]]) 13:14, 13 October 2016 (EDT)Japeth555
'''Reason''': A warthog with rockets! What isn’t there to love? Also the part where you get the M79 rocket launcher in the mission [[Tip of the Spear]] in [[Halo Reach]] is unforgettable. -MisterPillay117
:You're right in that those bits are questionable, especially Catalog's statement. We could always choose to politely ignore it, maybe relegate it in the "Production notes" section, or just slap a note on it. As for the second one, technically ''Halo 4'' is two years after ''Hunters in the Dark''. Something could've happened that led to Lasky not including 07. --[[User:Jugus|Jugus]] ([[User talk:Jugus|talk]]) 00:22, 14 October 2016 (EDT)

*{{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.

Great job. I wonder of we should include an image perhaps of text from one of Halo 3's terminals, since there is such a lack of images. {{unsigned|Japeth555}}

She is the reason that their were many Halo Wars levels. If she had not been captured the end of halo wars would not have ended like that. She is a great addition to the halo wars campaign levels.  
:Eh, I don't think it is necessary.
