You guys have no idea how awesome it is to see the site back in Halopedia.org where it all started. Great job, everyone. - AgentSeeethroo

Hey man, I think so too! Although it technically started on the Black Box Republic heyoo. --User:Porplemontage/sig 17:30, 18 July 2012 (EDT)

Halopedia Podcast

Once again, my brilliance is showing. I think a really good way to gain traction in the middle of the Halo 4 hype would be to start doing a podcast. We could talk about exciting news that's constantly popping up in all the trailers and interviews and whatnot; have a featured article on the podcast just like we do on the page; give shout-outs to editors that are truly rocking the house. You know...stuff like that. If anyone wants to consider this, hit me up on my userpage thanger. I'd really like all your input. --Mutha Effin Seethroo

I'd love to listen to such a podcast, but it doesn't look like there are a lot of volunteers to host. --User:Porplemontage/sig 17:44, 1 August 2012 (EDT)
I don't know all that much about the technical side of things (editing, publishing, uploading, etc.), but I would be lying if I said that I wasn't even slightly interested in hosting or, at the very least, regularly participating in discussions. Grizzlei
I think it would be interesting to do, considering that we've done it in the past.--Spartacus (Talk | Contribs) 17:53, 1 August 2012 (EDT)
That's cool, I did a podcast several years ago too for my old Porplemontage Studios site. --User:Porplemontage/sig 18:02, 1 August 2012 (EDT)

(reset indent) A few requirement to make sure the podcast is successful for a long run (at least a year?): (1) a dedicated team of at least three, (2) a podcast for every week, if not for every fortnight, and (3) a length of at least 7 to 10 minutes.— subtank 06:53, 2 August 2012 (EDT)

Bulletin-Specialization

The latest bulletin (here) has a whole trove of new info and armor and stuff. But I'm not sure how to organize it. For example, are the names of the armor the same as the specializations? Bioniclepluslotr 10:22, 16 August 2012 (EDT)

I asked the same question. Just like you I don't know how to go about adding any of this information. I think the most I can think of doing is adding a new article called "Specializations" and adding all the information there. However specializations to me come off as the same as tactical packages & support upgrades so it's even more confusing. --Killamint [Comm|Files] 12:23, 16 August 2012 (EDT)
Okay I've read the bulletin more thoroughly. You do not have to wear that specific armor for the mod which means that the specific armor is in fact a new variant which means 8 new armor variants to add to the Halo 4 page & Halopedia altogether. That's what I believe. Also I went ahead and created the page so that we can go ahead and start adding more info. --Killamint [Comm|Files] 18:12, 16 August 2012 (EDT)
Do we know the names of the armors? Are they the same as the armor mod? Bioniclepluslotr 10:52, 18 August 2012 (EDT)
Like I said before, the armor is synonymous with the specialization, so the pathfinder specialization includes the pathfinder armor, the operator specialization includes the operator armor, and so on. However you do not have to wear that specific armor to use that specific specialization/armor mod. --Killamint [Comm|Files] 12:02, 18 August 2012 (EDT)
