'''Reason:''' Concisely-written. Might as well promote this to the front page. Killing hundreds of birds with a stone...
'''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.

===Comments===
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}}
:True, and pages about recently released games tend to be bogged down by the story description for a month, sometimes several. Let's see how concisely the plot can be summarized first.
