For

2. ADD agreed. -ED 04:25, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
3. ADD Interesting stuff, even if it is noncanonical. -Azathoth 02:22, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
4. ADD Man I got attached to that damned elite--The Chazz 02:51, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
5. ADD This is an article not very many people would know about - Ares.117 4:33, February 13

Neutral

1. Neutral While it is a good article shouldn't The Winner be Canon?

Ultra Grunt Mewai File:GruntUltra03.jpg|50px]] ^Comm 12:17, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

• Why should it have to be? It's very interesting, and it is a part of the Haloverse, if only in a roundabout sort of way. -64.141.141.25 20:53, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
  • Hmm. What's procedure for when there's five Add votes and a Neutral? -Azathoth 20:21, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
  • It should stay at 5. Respect them Grunts, --Mouse among men 03:05, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Uplink Crate (5)

For

1. ADD Good sized article with two images. Somewhat obsure topic. --Dragonclaws 11:23, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
2. ADD Per DragonClaws--User:JohnSpartan117 [1] 09:06, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
3. ADD No one knows anything about these things, might as well put it up so they at least know what a halopedian would say thay are. —This unsigned comment was made by Lt.O'Brien (talk • contribs). Please sign your posts with ~~~~
4. Weak Add - surprisingly in-depth. a bravo zulu to Ed. Cheers, TRU⁷H 17:06, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
5. ADD as per Dragonclaws. -Azathoth 18:27, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Neutral

1. If you'll recall, I made this article ridiculous one day just because I could. It was more of a gag than an in-depth study of uplink crates, most of that info is my speculation or just what I noticed about the crates in Halo: Combat Evolved. And its pretty funny to think someone would go all out to research uplink crates. -ED 21:35, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Hmm. Well, I found it useful when I wrote a scene that involved one in my Halo 3 fanfic. --Dragonclaws 21:48, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

I agree that its a good article, if not a bit nerdy on my part. -ED 21:51, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Well, Halopedia itself is rather nerdy. --Dragonclaws 08:15, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

Special Ops Grunt (5)

For

1. ADD extensive article with a lot of background. -ED 22:02, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
2. ADD per Ed. --Dragonclaws^(talk) 22:04, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
3. ADD This may not be that important in its subject matter, but it's still very well set up and formally written. --Azathoth 00:39, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
4. Weak Add I spent some time fixing this up, and in contrast to Azathoth's comment, think it's very important in clearing up many misconceptions about Grunts. Cheers, TRU⁷H 17:09, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
5. ADD because RR said so. g^ue_st^y-p_er^so_ny-^th_in^gy^{I too have an AI... his name is Supreme Honcho.} 04:26, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

Sergeant Avery Johnson

MJOLNIR armor

For

1. ADD Very well-thought-out article with a lot of information that few people are aware of. --Azathoth 01:50, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
2. Support Pretty good. A couple sections need sourcing, but that's a fairly quick fix. --Coredesat 23:54, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
3. ADD per above. --Dragonclaws 08:21, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
4. ADDSure.--User:JohnSpartan117 [2] 20:49, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

John-117

For

1. ADD I nominate John-117 He's the center of the Halo universe and the article fills the requirements.--JohnSpartan117 18:44, 5 November 2006 (UTC)

2. ADD the Master Chief is the character who has influenced the Halo universe the most

Against

1. Against - needs cleanup, especially w/ picture @ bottom. Cheers, RelentlessRecusantFile:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] 20:35, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
2. Against- The Featured Article is supposed to be something about what the average Halo fan wouldn't know. Considering the fact that John-117 is the center of the Halo universe, most average people would already know stuff about him. Copaman, 30 Nov

   I believe that just means you can't get away with a short article like "Master Chief SPARTAN-117 is the protagonist of the Halo games. He is friends with Sergeant Johnson." Obviously that is a bit too short, but there is limited space available in this discussion thread, so mentally stretch that out a couple paragraphs. This article, however, is set up as a comprehensive history. --Dragonclaws 19:42, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

   Actually theres a lot of information an average fan dosnt know, like the Bible references and the changes as a spartan he went through. And most fans dont know his early life. oh...and what exactly is "an average fan"? MY definition is someone who played Halo 1 and 2 but didnt read tyhe book s or anything.--JohnSpartan117 08:01, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

3. Against- Whether it contains information the average Halo fan (using JS117's definition) would know or not, I feel that there should be more out-there knowledge in the Featured Article. --Azathoth 21:01, 11 December 2006 (EST)
4. Against, cleanup and a bit of expansion would be a good idea first. Also, if this fails and you'd like to renominate it later, use the actual article title and not a redirect. :P --Coredesat 07:12, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

   Wow like it really matters.--User:JohnSpartan117 [3] 09:25, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

   I wasn't being serious.--Coredesat 23:55, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

The Halos

For

1. ADD Large, in depth article with lots of images. --Dragonclaws 07:44, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
2. ADD Agreed--User:JohnSpartan117 [4] 09:07, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
3. ADD Ditto. Some problems have been cleaned up and a fuller explanation of the Halos' function added. --Azathoth 16:32, 12 December 2006 (EST)
4. ADD I'm very proud pf that article, though it does not have any sources cited. -ED 21:37, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
5. ADDSanghelli 06:06, 24 December 2006 (UTC) Its a great article and deserves some recognition.

Neutral

1. Neutral I'll support if sources are added and cited. --Coredesat 23:53, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

United Nations Space Command

For

1. ADD Good history section as well as directory. Many Halo fans wouldn't know the backstory about Koslovics and stuff. --Dragonclaws 05:20, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
2. ADD Its a good article and would tell newcommers the back story of humanity --Climax Viod 11:36, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
3. ADD its a rilly informative article on the history of the Humans, and the Human-Covenant War -- 64.180.59.72 20:46, 19 November 2006
4. ADD The Master Chief article is a great one, but this article seems to explain the basic foundation of the Halo world well enough to get my vote. Lo-Volt December 3, 2006, 8:15 PM EST
5. ADD Very good article explains almost everything. --EliteDeath 20:28, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
6. ADD It fits the description on a fetured atricle. It tells things that the average fan doesn't know (such as the laws, ship names, and multiple links to more articles that inform halo players of even more unknown wonders).--Lt.O'Brien 22:30, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

Neutral

1. Neutral - needs cleanup and a wee bit of speculation, but I see the effort. Cheers, RelentlessRecusantFile:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] 20:35, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

• 5 - 1 This needs one more add to be a featured article.--JohnSpartan117 22:04, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

• It's actually 3-1 as IP 64.180.59.72 voted three times. -- Esemono 22:27, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

• Ok..so we technically only have 2 votes for it. Im deleting those extra votes.--JohnSpartan117 03:28, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Against

1. DONT ADD Lots of elements of speculation.--JohnSpartan117 15:10, 6 November 2006 (UTC)

• • Where is the speculation? Most of the backstory comes straight from xbox.com's Halo section. --Dragonclaws 21:37, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
    • Like how UNSC Spirit of Fire is listed as a carrier.--JohnSpartan117 04:15, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
      • Spirit of Fire must be a carrier for it to carry enough troops for Halo Wars's purposes.--Azathoth

Cortana Letters

For

1. ADD An interesting aspect of the Halo franchise I'm sure plenty of people don't know about. Because these were a series of emails, images are not possible. --Dragonclaws 23:47, 16 November 2006 (UTC)
   1. Strike that. We managed to add one. --Dragonclaws 23:24, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
2. ADD Per Dragonclaws.--JohnSpartan117 08:25, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

Real Sizes in the Halo Universe

• ADD Cool info on the sizes and scale of objects in the Halo Universe. -- Esemono 13:35, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
• ADD Really helps you understand the scale of these structures. --Dragonclaws 21:10, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

• ADDPer JohnSpartan117, Esemono, and Dragonclaws--Ryanngreenday 11:48, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
• ADD To the Covenant! -- Fist of Rukt 14:29, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Kamal Zaman

• ADD Good bio, I'd say. Being an ilovebees character, many Halo fans wouldn't know of him. It doesn't have any images only because he's a character in a radio drama. --Dragonclaws 05:12, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
• Dont ADD No picture--JohnSpartan117 04:16, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
  • As I said, because he's a character in a radio drama no picture yet exists, therefore it can't have an image. Surely an exception can be made in this circumstance? --Dragonclaws 04:20, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

• I noticed there were some cool I Love Bees graphics on the Logo Contest page couldn't we just alter it for the ILB characters? -- Yamanba 06:07, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

• ADD Really well researched and is like the ideal model article of what every article should look like. I think we should overlook the lack of images because it's a radio play there were none to begin with. -- Yamanba 00:25, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
• ADD Yeah we need a I Love Bees article and this is probably the most extensive. -- Esemono 15:36, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
• ADD Wow this is reasearched up the ying yang. Very impressive! And I don't know what that guy is talking about, I see two pictures! What you smoking man? -- SprtnOneOneSe7en 14:47, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

• The images were added after that comment. --Dragonclaws 05:38, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

• Change to ADD Fits all the the requirements now. Can someone strike out my old vote?--JohnSpartan117 08:24, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

• ADD I agree with this all.--JohnSpartan117 06:16, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

Halo: Combat Evolved

For

1. ADD Great Article, probably one of the most professional ones. Follows all restrictions and contains info a lot of halo fans dont know.--JohnSpartan117 08:14, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
2. ADD First game should defenitly be on it plus it is an imformative article.--Jack-137 00:18, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
3. ADD Halo1>Halo2, if this hasnt been featured yet, all the H2 noobs should learn about the original- and best- game.--Ryanman 7 December 2006

   Comment That's not a reason to support an article for featured status (one of the games being "better" than the others is not one of the FA criteria). --Coredesat 07:24, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

4. ADD per above. --Dragonclaws 08:33, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
5. ADD, exceptional article. --Coredesat 07:24, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Captain Jacob Keyes

For

1. ADD Large article with images and sources. --Dragonclaws 08:56, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
2. ADD Simply put, its to commemorate a gatuitous soldier for his efforts in the Human-Covenant war. He was a great soldier, and a true Hero to the UNSC.--Lt.O'Brien 22:39, 10 December 2006 (UTC)
3. ADD Very professionally done article...besides, how many gamers took the time to observe every little ribbon Keyes is wearing? Great research. --Azathoth 21:17, 11 December 2006 (EST)
4. Add, seems fine to me. Good article. --Coredesat 07:09, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
