*<s>{{Support}} — Well I guess I can indulge in some ego stroking at least once in awhile. :) Though my only concern about a pre-release Featured Article status are the dips in quality that comes when the game launches. Typically, it takes a month or two before a game page mellows out after its released and I fear that such award, while entirely deserving at the moment, may not be up to our expectations come this fall. {{User:Grizzlei/Sig}}</s>

===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. [[User:Tuckerscreator|<span style="color:#6600cc;">'''''Tuckerscreator'''''</span>]]<sup>([[User talk:Tuckerscreator|<font color="#008000">stalk</font>]])</sup> 14:13, 30 May 2012 (EDT)

'''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.

*{{Oppose}} - The writing is good and the paragraphs through, but the article needs more integrated pictures and the list of Spartan-IIs should have a scroll box added to it. It could also perhaps have these two sections added to it: one about the Spartans' abilites and combat prowess, and another about the perception of them across the UNSC and Covenant.

== [[Glassing]] (Won)==
== [[Outbreak on Installation 00]] ==
'''Reason''': Glassing is one of the aspects where the ''Halo'' universe takes a horrifyingly powerful turn. I feel on this article we've managed to fully explain that horror to every detail, as well as reconcile its various discrepancies that have shown up. [[User:Tuckerscreator|<span style="color:#6600cc;">'''''Tuckerscreator'''''</span>]]<sup>([[User talk:Tuckerscreator|<font color="#008000">stalk</font>]])</sup> 15:04, 17 October 2012 (EDT)
'''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.

*{{support}} The M79 Rocket Launcher, though only appearing in Halo Reach, 4, 5, and Infinite, was a great inclusion when Halo Reach came out.

*{{Oppose}} - Character development in SpartanOps renders it impossible for the nominated article to be considered. It would fail in the immediate category, "Information", where not everything is properly sourced and is open to being altered subject to SpartanOps' episodes. Until the subject's development is stable, I don't think it is suitable. On top of that, the gallery can be shortened by using the [[Template:Linkbox|Linkbox template]] and moving the less relevant images into a category (like how we did with other articles). One minor issue is the referencing issue, basically not following the proper format. — <span style="font-size:14px; font-family:Arial;">[[User:Subtank|<span style="color:#FF4F00;">subtank</span>]]</span>  23:35, 28 January 2013 (EST)

== [[Composer]] ==


'''Reason''': A well-written article with appropriately-named headings, suitable amount of images, and correct references/sources. The gallery contains a balanced variety of concept art pieces and in-game screenshot when the Composer is in its dormant state as well as when it is being used. All information are sourced with certainty with no questions marks in the Sources section. Last but not least, there hasn't been any new info on the Composer in newer media (like ''Spartan Ops''), so information about the Composer is like when the Composer itself is onboard ''Ivanoff Station'': in a stable state. —<span style="font-family: Eurostile;">'''[[User:Spartan331|<span style="color:#000;">SPARTAN</span>]][[User talk:Spartan331|<span style="color:#888;">331</span>]]'''</span> 11:18, 12 February 2013 (EST)

'''Reason''': His speech about dirt gives me goosebumps each time and his sacrifice to stop the [[Covenant]] and the corrupt UNSC forces is one of the most epic in the series, he might've slowed down [[Rookie]] but, in my opinion, it was worth it

*{{Support}} - Agreed. Unlike with Dr. Halsey, we probably won't have to deal with new information on the Composer any time soon. As it stands, the article is well written and very informative. --[[User:Braidenvl|Courage never dies.]] ([[User talk:Braidenvl|talk]]) 12:45, 12 February 2013 (EST)
*{{Support}} - No objections from me. --[[User:Master of Halo|Master of Halo]]
*{{Oppose}} - It's got all the relevant information on the Composer, but the article strikes me as fairly squished otherwise considering it's got only two sections. And as I pointed out below, there's possibly going to be a new addition of information in about a month, and it will likely be a lot, considering much has to be done to reconcile the Composer of ''Primordium'' with the weapon of ''Halo 4''.

== Unidentified Avien species. ==
Won't ''Silentium'' be bringing in a lot of information about the Composer? We know it will be involving the events of ''Halo 4'', and have to reconcile them with ''Primordium''.

::Actually, Tuckerscreator is right. It is quite possible that ''Silentium'' will have more information about the Composer that will need to collected and processed.

I probably wouldn't say best.... not just because I disagree but because you've just marked yourself for not a flame war, but a flame endless drone strike. Best of luck. Always use the DMR.

'''Reason'''
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.

Outbreak on Installation 00[edit]

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.

M79 rocket launcher[edit]

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

Date of nomination: 2023-01-10

Votes[edit]

  • Support.svg 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. Les 'Velliumn (talk) May 30th, 2023

Gage Yevgenny[edit]

Reason: His speech about dirt gives me goosebumps each time and his sacrifice to stop the Covenant and the corrupt UNSC forces is one of the most epic in the series, he might've slowed down Rookie but, in my opinion, it was worth it
