=={{UNSCShip|Pillar of Autumn}} (Approved)==
'''Reason''': Well referenced and sourced, plenty of images, and well detailed overall. It is one of the most noteworthy named vessels of the ''Halcyon''-class light cruiser, and the predecessor of the newer ''Autumn''-class heavy cruiser. The ''Autumn'' played a pivotal role in the Battle of Installation 04. And also because it should be given another try. --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmission</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Commencing</font>]]''''']</small> 18:55, 27 January 2014 (EST)Xamikaze330

'''Reason''': I think the presentation of the article serves the article well, giving it a clean look. Though it lacks transcripts from each video, what the article does best is providing readers the best collection of videos without ever needing to leave the article.

== [[Halo: Faith]] (Approved) ==
'''Reason''': It comprehensively covers virtually everything we know about this cut-short fan film, from screenplay to casting to budget to music. It's an unusual choice, since it's not an official piece of ''Halo'' media, but it's just as detailed as one, and so worth giving attention.

*{{Oppose}} - A lot of red still exists on the Halo: Nightfall page, and the actual show wasn't the most well received Halo show. [[User:SamGall|SamGall]] ([[User talk:SamGall|talk]]) 15:17, 14 March 2015 (EDT)

==''[[Halo: Contact Harvest]]'' (Approved)==
'''Reason''': I should probably be working on ''Broken Circle''/''New Blood''/''Spartan Strike''/''Nightfall''/''Hunters in the Dark'', but I noticed that Wikipedia's article on ''Contact Harvest'' was better and a featured article there. So, borrowing some of Wikipedia's sources and some of my own, I expanded our own article on ''Contact Harvest''. I believe that the article is well-sourced, has a sufficient plot summary, effectively details the development and reception of the novel, and I added some missing characters to the "Appearances" section. I believe that this article includes all relevant information on the novel.

'''Reason''': Another comprehensive article that details the first mission of the Spartan-IIs with lots of relevant quotes and images.

Should we replace the image of Sam using an SMG with another image that doesnt play so fast and loose with the canon? - Japeth555
:I was thinking about it and if you guys would prefer another infobox image, then I can easily replace it with the image in the gallery of ''Laden'' arriving at the asteroid (it was the original infobox pic when I was working on the article, though I felt that a pic of Watts' actual capture would be better). --[[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>'' 20:55, 26 March 2016 (EDT)

'''Reason''': It is an enormous article describing service record of the main protagonist of the entire ''Halo'' series. It is well sourced and quoted, has lots of pictures, and is rather detailed.

Honestly, the article is in decent condition. It has a lot of good quotes and pics, but I have a few issues. Most importantly, the article needs some references in some places (particularly in older sections). Secondly, (this is just my opinion) I'm not a fan of having small subsections with only a couple sentences. Obviously, it is unavoidable in some cases, but I find it happens a bit too frequently in this article. Most of it can be resolved by either merging them into a larger subsection (kind of what I did with parts of Fred's article) or in some cases, the subsection can just be expanded upon (such as Sigma Octanus). I was actually working on John's article on the side, though I've been too busy with uni lately to work on it. I can add part of that to this article to help though. --[[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>'' 18:34, 11 April 2016 (EDT)
:Ok, yeah, you're right. But as for me, i don't see any problems with small sections. It's like military service record, where each event, every single operation deserves it's own paragraph, even if it's small one. Maybe one day we'll got the chance to fill in the blanks. Besides it will be shame to loose a few good quotes, they suits well. But again, this is my opinion. --[[User:Necrontir|<span style="color: black;">'''Necrontir'''</span>]] 19:33, 11 April 2016 (EDT)

Meridian

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.
