Forum:Halopedia Improvement Project Phase 2 & 3 Submission

Halopedia improvement project brief
Ok I am here to start submitting my Halopedia Improvement project. A project that is to help improve Halopedia in 3 Phases.

To be brief
 * Phase 1: This is the tidy up section. This prepares our wiki.
 * Phase 2: This is the Community section. This sets up our wiki for the community we will be welcoming.
 * Phase 3: I dont really need to submit this one as its more just keeping the previous phases up to scratch

Submission and request
I am finally submitting Phase 2 and 3 because Phase 1 is coming along nicely and it seems right to start moving on to submitting Phase 2.

I really need to things from you all right now.
 * 1. A vote to see if you all think these are ready to be put into the project.
 * 2. Comments on how we can improve these Phases.

Step 5 Internal Community improvement
This step is getting the wiki community fun
 * 1. Reset featured content for a clean slate.
 * 1.1. Choose what ones we already have and remove those that are outdated.
 * 1.2. Features articles ready to restart
 * 2. Add community events on the wiki.
 * 2.1. (Example ideas) Monthly polls.
 * 2.2. (Example ideas) Weekly featured articles/pictures/videos for users to vote for.(rotate them monthly so the homepage is more dynamic)
 * 2.3. (Example ideas) Aprils fools day and other holiday celebrations.(we make a special Wiki skin for the holidays)
 * 2.4. (Example ideas) Start weekly discussions in the forums.
 * 3. Make more dynamic news. More detailed.
 * 3.1. Start up news and build it up.
 * 3.2. HAVE FUN.
 * 3.3. Community Update on the Homepage.
 * 4. Be welcoming to new members.

Step 6 External Community improvement
This step is to help build relations with other communities outside our internal wiki one.
 * 1. Tidy and add to the Halopedia Community Portal using CIA391's other Community hubs as a example.
 * 2. Use the Community portal to add community's to the Sidebar.
 * 3. Get Twitter and Facebook more updated and up to scratch.
 * 3.1. Get more admins on the Twitter and Facebook.
 * 3.2. Add a bot to the Twitter and possibly Facebook so some automated posts are done to make life easier on the admins.
 * 3.3. Add posts on Featured stuff from step 5 on Twitter and Facebook.
 * 3.4. Add Admin and Patroller made projects on Twitter and Facebook.

Step 7 Get more Patrollers
This step is to help encourage members to become Patrollers.
 * 1. Look through active users and see if any are suitable to be Patrollers.
 * 2. If none are currently ready keep an eye out in the long run.

Phase 3 Keeping our work looking great
Once this project makes it to Phase 3 it will be discontinued and fused with the Article Improvement Drive project and other projects due to the similar nature of Phase 3 and that project itself. But is outlined so fusion will be easier in the long run.

Step 8 Content
This step is generally what already happens, but is here so people have stuff to work on.
 * 1. Use the Halopedia:Projects/Improvement to improve pages or add pages we need based on new media.
 * 2. Use the Special:WantedPages to add pages we need.
 * 3. Use the Special:AncientPages to updated old pages to suit newer standards.

Step 9 Keeping an eye on stuff
This step is kinda just the stuff that needs to be kept an eye on so they dont go out of hand in the future.
 * 1. Keep an eye on the Special:SpecialPages to make sure they are kept in check and dont get out of control. If a special page get into a list in the 300's then we need to do a clean out of it.
 * 2. Keep the feedback forum open, and use it to improve the site as time goes on.
 * 3. Update Old file naming conventions on pages to the new ones as done in Step 4.(Will link page when its ready)
 * 4. Update Old source conventions on pages to the new ones as done in Step 4.(Will link page when its ready)
 * 5. Keep updating the Community stuff we set up in step 5.(Will probably make a project page dedicated to keeping that set up)
 * 6. Keep the twitter and Facebook active with content.
 * 7. Keep up with Step 7 unless we have plenty of them.
 * 8. Keep up with 8 in general like we do already.
