Be part of Community Links?
How does a wiki become a part of the Community Links? (Like Halo Machinima Wiki per say) ~Jman98~ 19:23, 20 March 2012 (EDT)


 * Guess it would be subjected to notability (i.e. at least one years old?). Somebody ought to create what makes a community website notable to be in the table. That aside, we could promote it as long as it stays active. — subtank  19:36, 20 March 2012 (EDT)


 * Hmm, yeah I see what you're saying. I was wondering since there's already a template linking to our Wiki (Halo Machinima), that it could become part of the community links, give it more notability. ~Jman98~ 23:54, 20 March 2012 (EDT)


 * I think there is one... but there hasn't been an increase activity on notable machinimas. However, seeing that the machinima wiki is seeing some activity and under a new management, I don't see why we can't reestablish the connection again and add it in the community weblinks.— subtank  07:16, 21 March 2012 (EDT)


 * Glad we see eye-to-eye. The wiki runs basically like this: If you have a Machinima, and it actually exists on a site like YouTube and it's watchable, then you can make a page for it. There's other things, though that's the primary goal. ~Jman98~ 01:01, 22 March 2012 (EDT)

Upload New Images: Where...?
I just noticed the Upload New Images link just got removed from the Main Page, and I don't see it anywhere here, like I would expect it to be. Can someone help? --Xamikaze330 20:18, 20 March 2012 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * It's still there under the Community tab. Alternatively, you can check for newly uploaded image in this page and you can upload some by referring to the navigation sidebar (beside Special Pages, underneath Preferences).— subtank  20:21, 20 March 2012 (EDT)
 * Well, I still can't see it anywhere in the Community page itself, but I do see it in the sidebar, as you said. I don't know; I kinda feel like someone should add that somewhere, just in case someone gets confused like I was. By the way, just so that not just anyone could edit this community page, shouldn't it be protected to be edited only by administrators and patrollers? Just a thought. --Xamikaze330 20:29, 20 March 2012 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * Well, as per your previous comment on Talk:Main Page, I readded Special:NewFiles and the Upload New Images on the Main Page; this is located under the Community tab. But as for your comment on adding the page in this Community page... noted. This community page is still under construction, so it's best to allow anyone to correct any mistakes made.— subtank  20:33, 20 March 2012 (EDT)
 * Okay. I guess I'll leave it at that then. Thanks. --Xamikaze330 21:16, 20 March 2012 (EDT)Xamikaze330

Automatic refresh feature
I was wondering: should we implement an Auto-refresh button on the Recent Changes page for easier patrol of recent article changes, rather than manually refreshing the page 24/7? In my opinion, it would make patrolling pages a lot easier for users. vadske @ halopedia 21:56, 29 November 2012 (EST)
 * Wouldn't be a bad idea in my opinion. Though, the guy to ask about this would be Steve.-- 22:01, 29 November 2012 (EST)

Timeline
Is there anyway we can incorporate thistimeline? I saw it on Waypoint, and thought this would be great here. any thoughts?--Weeping Angel (talk) 19:26, 10 May 2013 (EDT)

Halo.fr
Halo.fr, a French fansite operating since the days of Halo 2 !

Not since Halo 2, but since December 2001 ! Is it possible to change ?

 * Corrected.— subtank   09:43, 13 August 2013 (EDT)
 * Thanks ! ;-)    Oromisor (talk) 15:55, 13 August 2013 (EDT)

It's possible to change the image of Hfr ? So even change the link "French Halopedia" to that of WikiHalo (www.wiki.halo.fr) ? Because the wiki currently presented is not active and the WikiHalo is a partner with you. -- Oromisor (talk) 15:15, 26 September 2014 (EDT) // Partner WikiHalo
 * I'll change it. Thanks for the headsup.-- 17:19, 26 September 2014 (EDT)
 * Thank you ! ;-) -- Oromisor (talk) 18:25, 26 September 2014 (EDT)

Haloring.org
I removed the link to haloring.org, as the URL now redirects to Halosphere.net, which is some Halo-themed MMORPG game. Any idea if the site still exists at a different URL?-- 16:21, 23 November 2013 (EST)

Community Link proposal
Hey guys.

I’ve been a member of the Halo canon-orientated forums for more than a year now, and since I joined the site I’ve been wondering whether it would be possible to have the site as a Community Link here, and whether the site fits the needed requirements. The site has seen tremendous growth over the past few months, although a month ago we changed domain to our new site (the old one can be found ), with the creation of active and  outlets and a steady influx of new members. We have an active set of 35 members, with a further 30 essences, and are relatively well-known on other sites like Waypoint and the Bungie universe forum.

I would be delighted if it could be done, but if not that's okay. We're still growing, so it may be a little while before we gain full notability. Thanks, regardless. —Tent acle Torn ado  14:50, 8 April 2014 (EDT)

Wow. Thanks for posting that here. I have neither the authority to put it on the Main Page, nor the knowledge to help decide whether or not it should be there, but it I appreciate your bringing that to my attention. It looks like a very interesting site. --Weeping Angel (talk) 23:06, 8 April 2014 (EDT)


 * For now, the requirement seems to be that the site must be sufficiently active. Added.— subtank   09:07, 9 April 2014 (EDT)


 * Thanks, Sub. You're most welcome to join, Angel. The more the merrier. :P —Tent acle Torn ado  09:27, 9 April 2014 (EDT)
 * Had a look around the website. Decided to join!-- 11:28, 9 April 2014 (EDT)

Update to the community section
I just went though the community section, and well I feel it really needs a huge update. As sad as it is. Most of the foreign wikis are very outdated. With only German, Italian, Russian, and Spanish, being any good. Others havent been updated in over a month, and some have very little pages. Though first thing to do would be to update it with whats in the side-bar. Makes us consistent. Then I vote we take out any community that hasnt made an update in over 6 months(6 months is enough time in case the community took a break for a wee bit).

Then if you lot are up for it. We could either link this thread or add communities from it.(this is a big maybe, I know some like Halo Follower and Halo Nation are out the question at the moment) https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/forums/f9237adeaf1742c09de144d7bf3f7507/topics/halo-community-hub/37dc681d-4a56-47e8-b1f6-bb2d6c291513/posts

Hopefully this is a few good ideas. --CIA391 (talk) 20:19, 12 March 2016 (EDT)
