Halo 4 (closed)
Reason: Concisely-written. Might as well promote this to the front page. Killing hundreds of birds with a stone...

Votes

 * — Per above.— subtank   06:43, 26 May 2012 (EDT)
 * — Per Subtank.--Main-Superintendent.png KEEP IT CLEAN  Comm Line  Transmissions 22:04, 27 May 2012 (EDT)
 * Changed vote.-- Spartacus  ('''Talk 14:59, 22 August 2012 (EDT)
 * — Well I guess I can indulge in some ego stroking at least once in awhile. :) Though my only concern about a pre-release Featured Article status are the dips in quality that comes when the game launches. Typically, it takes a month or two before a game page mellows out after its released and I fear that such award, while entirely deserving at the moment, may not be up to our expectations come this fall.
 * Changed vote. Grizzlei
 * — I think that promoting this would help make more people interested in it and make more people edit it positivley: REACHSURVIVES
 * — per spartacusWeeping Angel 20:13, 9 June 2012 (EDT)
 * — Very well written\documented article with substantial information & sources. -- Killamint   Comm  15:14, 12 July 2012 (EDT)
 * — Are you kidding me? This page is too unstable.  You can't make a "current event" a features article.  Because what's going to happen is too unpredictable.  (or so it says in the sacred caves) Vegerot!'' 00:35, 17 August 2012 (EDT)!
 * - Too soon. UNSC_MIC.jpg Captain MIC  14:51, 22 August 2012 (EDT)
 * - Let's wait until after the game is released.-- Spartacus  ('''Talk 14:59, 22 August 2012 (EDT)
 * — Right now its still a great article with minimal flaws to it, but there's still plenty of content that could be added to it and we should probably wait until December to mold it into an article worthy of Featured status.
 * - Vote against on grounds that a featured article should be one that has been extensively fact-checked and has all, or nearly all, of the information available on the subject.

Comments
Considering E3 2012 starts next week and its been confirmed that plenty of information about Campaign, War Games, and Spartan Ops will be released, I suggest that we hold off any vote until the page is normalized and the editing consistency calms down after new information editing and rewrites.
 * True, and pages about recently released games tend to be bogged down by the story description for a month, sometimes several. Let's see how concisely the plot can be summarized first. Tuckerscreator (stalk ) 14:13, 30 May 2012 (EDT)
 * If its best to wait, should we hold off this article and nominate another article for now, then bring this article back up in November-December? Instead of it saying Pending, have it say On Hold? -- Killamint  [Comm |Files ] 16:53, 22 August 2012 (EDT)
 * Good idea. I'm presently looking through our articles to find one to nominate.-- Spartacus  ('''Talk 17:14, 22 August 2012 (EDT)

Well, since this nomination has hit a stalemate, does anyone have any objections to me closing/suspending this nomination?-- Spartacus,   Halopedia Administrator  Talk 14:11, 8 September 2012 (EDT)
 * I have no objections per what I asked above. I say suspend the nomination.-- Killamint  [Comm |Files ] 16:10, 8 September 2012 (EDT)

SPARTAN-II Program (closed)
Reason: This is one of the biggest aspects of the Halo universe. This article is properly sourced, well written, and meets all requirements. Why not promote it?-- 22:22, 8 October 2012 (EDT)

Votes

 * - As the nominator.-- 22:22, 8 October 2012 (EDT)
 * - The writing is good and the paragraphs through, but the article needs more integrated pictures and the list of Spartan-IIs should have a scroll box added to it. It could also perhaps have these two sections added to it: one about the Spartans' abilites and combat prowess, and another about the perception of them across the UNSC and Covenant. Tuckerscreator (stalk ) 00:06, 18 October 2012 (EDT)

Glassing (Approved)
Reason: Glassing is one of the aspects where the Halo universe takes a horrifyingly powerful turn. I feel on this article we've managed to fully explain that horror to every detail, as well as reconcile its various discrepancies that have shown up. Tuckerscreator (stalk ) 15:04, 17 October 2012 (EDT)

Votes

 * - As per above. Tuckerscreator (stalk ) 15:04, 17 October 2012 (EDT)
 * - Tucker said it all.-- 15:21, 17 October 2012 (EDT)
 * - This article is practically begging to be featured. --Courage never dies. 00:24, 18 October 2012 (EDT)

Thel 'Vadam (Approved)
Reason: I believe this is well-written and very detailed. It meets all requirements and appears to be properly sourced. As it hasn't been made a featured article before, I strongly believe it's about time this article was made a featured article. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 19:42, 19 December 2012 (EST)Xamikaze330

Votes

 * - As per my statement above. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 19:42, 19 December 2012 (EST)Xamikaze330
 * - This page really has improved from the mess it used to be. A few more edits here and there it's got my support. Tuckerscreator (<font color="#008000">stalk ) 20:04, 19 December 2012 (EST)
 * - As per all above.-- 20:09, 19 December 2012 (EST)
 * - Because it does. —  SPARTAN 331  04:15, 20 December 2012 (EST)

Comments
Hey guys, this. —  SPARTAN 331  22:24, 19 December 2012 (EST)
 * Subtank cleared out the featured articles a while back, as most of them no longer fit the requirements. This one was among them.-- 22:30, 19 December 2012 (EST)

We should have taken the Featured Article icon off their pages, then. Tuckerscreator (<font color="#008000">stalk ) 22:39, 19 December 2012 (EST)

Well, it isn't closed, and it seems it didn't win then. And if it did, shouldn't it say so? And if it did, why isn't it in the Featured Articles category, under "T"? And if it wasn't won back then, therefore, why not now? Isn't it about time now? --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 00:16, 20 December 2012 (EST)Xamikaze330


 * What I meant is that we should move those votes into here as well. —  SPARTAN 331  01:48, 20 December 2012 (EST)

Those were for a different version of the article. This is an evaluation of the article now. Tuckerscreator (<font color="#008000">stalk ) 03:32, 20 December 2012 (EST)


 * Fair enough. —  SPARTAN 331  04:15, 20 December 2012 (EST)

✅ -- 12:14, 11 January 2013 (EST)

Sadie's Story (Closed)
Reason: Shows what you're fighting for, gives more info as to what's happening in mombasa, has cool effects on gameplay, and is just a cool story in general.

Votes

 * For the reasons stated above. This is craZboy557, signing off. 13:36, 25 January 2013 (EST)
 * - This article seems a little too short to be worthy of featured article status.-- 14:34, 25 January 2013 (EST)
 * - I too agree with Spartacus. Way too short. No offense, but, next suggestion please! --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 15:03, 25 January 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330

Comments
'sigh', fine. I just thought I might try nominating something since there's nothing else up. I assume that an article can't win twice, right? This is craZboy557, signing off. 15:11, 25 January 2013 (EST)

Catherine Halsey (closed)
Reason: Clear, detailed, lots of diverse information, good images, and does a pretty great job of explaining the kerfuffles that emerged from Glasslands.

Votes

 * - Above. Tuckerscreator (<font color="#008000">stalk ) 16:01, 25 January 2013 (EST)
 * - Definitely good enough to be featured.-- 16:10, 25 January 2013 (EST)
 * Changed vote.--Spartacus (talk) 08:53, 29 January 2013 (EST)
 * - Seems good. Long enough, detailed. I accept that my previous nomination was too short. This is craZboy557, signing off. 16:35, 25 January 2013 (EST)
 * - Great article and an important character.--[[Image:PENGUIN4.gif|15px]] Fluffy Emo Penguin ( ice quack! ) 13:33, 26 January 2013 (EST)
 * - No arguments here. Only that there is still information being added to it on an almost daily basis. But other than that, it gets my vote. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 14:35, 26 January 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
 * - Character development in SpartanOps renders it impossible for the nominated article to be considered. It would fail in the immediate category, "Information", where not everything is properly sourced and is open to being altered subject to SpartanOps' episodes. Until the subject's development is stable, I don't think it is suitable. On top of that, the gallery can be shortened by using the Linkbox template and moving the less relevant images into a category (like how we did with other articles). One minor issue is the referencing issue, basically not following the proper format. — subtank   23:35, 28 January 2013 (EST)
 * - Subtank brings up some good points.-- 08:53, 29 January 2013 (EST)
 * - Agree with Subtank, but it would make a very good feature in the future. --LinkFox101113 03:14, 02 February 2013 (EST)

Comments
Looks like we have a sizeable opposition here. Guess we should close this nomination? — subtank   08:14, 12 February 2013 (EST)
 * Nomination is now closed.-- 08:53, 12 February 2013 (EST)

Composer (closed)
Reason: A well-written article with appropriately-named headings, suitable amount of images, and correct references/sources. The gallery contains a balanced variety of concept art pieces and in-game screenshot when the Composer is in its dormant state as well as when it is being used. All information are sourced with certainty with no questions marks in the Sources section. Last but not least, there hasn't been any new info on the Composer in newer media (like Spartan Ops), so information about the Composer is like when the Composer itself is onboard Ivanoff Station: in a stable state. —  SPARTAN 331  11:18, 12 February 2013 (EST)

Votes

 * - As per above. —  SPARTAN 331  11:18, 12 February 2013 (EST)
 * - No arguments here. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 11:28, 12 February 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
 * My vote remains, but I would suggest a postponing of this as a featured article until Halo: Silentium comes out. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 14:19, 13 February 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
 * - No objections.-- 12:34, 12 February 2013 (EST)
 * Vote changed.--Spartacus (talk) 13:54, 13 February 2013 (EST)
 * - Agreed. Unlike with Dr. Halsey, we probably won't have to deal with new information on the Composer any time soon. As it stands, the article is well written and very informative. --Courage never dies. (talk) 12:45, 12 February 2013 (EST)
 * - No objections from me. --Master of Halo
 * - It mat be a little short, but it's a solid and informative artcle that would be relevant to new readers. Always use the DMR. This is craZboy557, signing off. 12:40, 25 March 2013 (EDT)
 * - It's got all the relevant information on the Composer, but the article strikes me as fairly squished otherwise considering it's got only two sections. And as I pointed out below, there's possibly going to be a new addition of information in about a month, and it will likely be a lot, considering much has to be done to reconcile the Composer of Primordium with the weapon of Halo 4. Tuckerscreator (<font color="#008000">stalk ) 13:35, 13 February 2013 (EST)
 * - As per Tucker. It's almost the same situation with Catherine Halsey.-- 13:54, 13 February 2013 (EST)

Comments
Won't Silentium be bringing in a lot of information about the Composer? We know it will be involving the events of Halo 4, and have to reconcile them with Primordium. Tuckerscreator (<font color="#008000">stalk ) 14:43, 12 February 2013 (EST)
 * There's still about a month until Silentium is released! (wink) —  SPARTAN 331  00:23, 13 February 2013 (EST)
 * Actually, Tuckerscreator is right. It is quite possible that Silentium will have more information about the Composer that will need to collected and processed. Until then, I would suggest we postpone this as a featured article until Silentium's release. Just a suggestion. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 00:38, 13 February 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
 * I concur. We should revisit this then. This is craZboy557, signing off. 14:13, 13 February 2013 (EST)

Halo 4 (Approved)
Reason: I think we have enough information on this now and also it's the best Halo game so far!!! Its also very well written\documented article with enough information & sources. --Master of Halo

Votes

 * - As per above.--Master of Halo
 * -Great article!! --Sethslayer10
 * - I agree with Master of Halo .--Never Die
 * - Actually seems pretty well-constructed now. Tuckerscreator (<font color="#008000">stalk ) 15:24, 27 February 2013 (EST)
 * - Well, since Tuckerscreator seems to think so now, I guess I'll give it my stamp of approval. Does seem like it is pretty much complete overall. "Killing hundreds of birds with one stone", I believe someone said awhile ago when this was first nominated and denied. Now seems the time. I hope. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 15:33, 27 February 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
 * - Agreed as per above.-- 16:03, 27 February 2013 (EST)
 * - I don't know about it being the "best Halo game so far", though I love how well put together the article is.-- Killamint  [<font color="Red">Comm |<font color="Black">Files ] 16:50, 27 February 2013 (EST)
 * — Terrible game, fantastic article. [Natalie] Everyone did such a great job contributing to this! :)

Comments
I probably wouldn't say best.... not just because I disagree but because you've just marked yourself for not a flame war, but a flame endless drone strike. Best of luck. Always use the DMR. This is craZboy557, signing off. 11:56, 26 February 2013 (EST)

I think this has been up long enough and there's no opposition. Request to close??? --Master of Halo
 * I honestly it wasn't all that bad a game, Grizzlei. In fact, I might say it was a little bit better than Halo: Reach. Not a bad start for 343 Industries, if you ask me. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 13:41, 5 March 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
 * Splendid. I myself believed it to be a half-assed experiment in how you can best alienate hardcore fans.


 * Xamikaze330, I don't think its better than Reach at all and I do believe it is a bad start - in the wrong direction. Reach maintained those core properties that made a Halo game while H4 threw them out the window. Yes I like & play the game but that's just because. However, in the back of my mind I'm always thinking they [343i] could have done better. Read this review all the way through and you may see for yourself how bad 343i messed up.-- Killamint  [<font color="Red">Comm |<font color="Black">Files ] 05:15, 6 March 2013 (EST)
 * Well, I did say it was a little bit better than Halo: Reach, like 15-25% better. But I didn't say it was all the way 100% better. There are still many things I wish 343i hadn't done, like for example, not include Theater and Pan Cam modes, or like killing Cortana off. So, in a way, I do and I don't agree on all or some points. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 11:43, 6 March 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
 * That was just my personal opinion in regardes to H4 & Reach. The main thing with 343i is that they did too much at the same time got lazy. They added things to Halo that are un-Halo-like, and cut fun features from the previous games. There was a reason for cutting theater but in true honestly, they had 3 years to figure it out rather than waste time retconing grunts. I just hope 343i learns from their mistakes w/ Halo 5. Otherwise...Destiny awaits.-- Killamint  [<font color="Red">Comm |<font color="Black">Files ] 12:22, 6 March 2013 (EST)
 * Indeed. I do agree on both points. We all have our own opinions. I did forget to mention another thing I didn't like about Halo 4 is in the mission campaign level Midnight, in the beginning the player is stuck piloting an F-41 Broadsword starfighter (which is a little nice), but instead on focusing on destroying enemy ships or even enemy weapons emplacements, the player has to focus more on evading obstacles than shooting anything. That's just another I hate. Long Night of Solace was by far more enjoyable. And I prefer New Alexandria over Shutdown, for some odd reason, even though it is nice to finally pilot a Pelican Gunship without the need for glitching. But like I said, we all have our own opinions. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 12:39, 6 March 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330
 * I pretty much memorized almost every campaign skip in Halo 4 (except Infinity) and don't even bother going through the missions normally anymore. Midnight, F the obstacles - I exit the playable boundary and fly straight to the composer. As for Shutdown- I fly straight to the third tower. Haven't stepped foot in tower 1 & 2 eversince.-- Killamint  [<font color="Red">Comm |<font color="Black">Files ] 12:59, 6 March 2013 (EST)
 * (reset indent) Pretty neat. Wish I'd known that sooner. Would've gone much faster. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 13:21, 6 March 2013 (EST)Xamikaze330

✅-- 10:53, 6 March 2013 (EST)

Halo: Reach (closed)
Reason: It has been relatively complete for some time now, meets all expected requirements, and I believe to be Bungie's best Halo game so far. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 14:47, 15 March 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

Votes

 * - As per my above statement. --Xamikaze330 (talk|contribs) 14:47, 15 March 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * - Article is well written and very informative.-- 11:42, 17 March 2013 (EDT)
 * - Mostly good, but needs more pictures, especially to the synopsis. There's room for improvement. Tuckerscreator (<font color="#008000">stalk ) 15:20, 17 March 2013 (EDT)
 * - Its a good article but doesn't have enough explanation and pictures... --Master of Halo

Comments
Best game ever... I might agree but i think its to early to have a new featured article but thats the peoples choice not mine ;)--Master of Halo
 * Well then, if it needs more pictures, then why doesn't someone do something about it? I'll go and see what images can be used for the synopsis, and maybe look through all (or most of) my Halo: Reach I have saved and stockpiled on my computer. But it's gonna take more than one person to make this article ready as a featured article. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmit |<font color="Green">Files ] 13:44, 20 March 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

I'll try to find some also. -- Master of Halo

Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn (Approved)
Reason: Best Halo film ever, far better than Halo Legends. Is relatively complete, meets all expected requirements, has plenty of explanation and pictures. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmit |<font color="Green">Files ] 11:23, 1 April 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

 * - As per above. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmit |<font color="Green">Files ] 11:23, 1 April 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * - Its a good article but we should wait untill all the videos come out on youtube because some people don't want to pay to watch it when we can wait untill it comes out on youtube. -Master of Halo
 * - Seems well informative with many pictures and so on.-- 13:43, 9 April 2013 (EDT)
 * - Its a good article. has good info. could use 1 or 2 more pictures though. im good with it. -Master of Halo
 * - Sure thing. Tuckerscreator (<font color="#008000">stalk ) 14:46, 7 June 2013 (EDT)
 * - perfect for a featured article. --Weeping Angel (talk) 15:39, 7 June 2013 (EDT)

Comments
@Master of Halo: It doesn't really matter whether it's on YouTube or not. We are only judging the state of the article here.-- 13:43, 9 April 2013 (EDT)
 * Seems to me that there are no further objections by other users. Make it a featured article now? -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmit |<font color="Green">Files ] 14:46, 15 April 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * Little late I know, but I'll put it up as featured now.-- 18:16, 7 June 2013 (EDT)

Halo: Reach (Approved)
Reason: Is (I believe to be) totally complete, has plenty of data and pictures added. Meets all expected requirements. And, most importantly, to reiterate something said earlier, is Bungie's best Halo game so far. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmission |<font color="Green">Commencing ] 17:26, 2 August 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

 * - Looks good. Second chances huh?-- 23:44, 2 August 2013 (EDT)
 * - Not trying to ruin the vote but I think it still needs more pics for the synosis, maybe 1 or 2 more like the last mission "lone wolf", or pics of noble 6 near the POA, and also 1 or 2 more pics of noble team in the screenshots section. Add those in and I'll change my vote. -- Killamint  [<font color="Red">Comm |<font color="Black">Files ] 12:39, 14 August 2013 (EDT)

I've just added some more pictures to the article, in hopes that this would make things appear a little more interesting. If needed, I can work to find other images to add. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmission |<font color="Green">Commencing ] 17:26, 2 August 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * Might as well add that, if more images are needed, then a list should be made available. Something that maybe should be made official policy, like a Featured Article Nomination Specifications List category. Then we know what to look for, and how to make things even better. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmission |<font color="Green">Commencing ] 17:52, 2 August 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * Is it just me, or does everybody here not care anymore? This bugs me. :-( Please, do speak now, or forever hold your peace. ;-) -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmission |<font color="Green">Commencing ] 12:16, 14 August 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * If you mean how nobody cared about HoTM anymore then I say no. I think it just needs a banner on the "recent changes" header & main page so that word gets out of the nomination. Otherwise people will go about their business like I was, till I saw your comment.-- Killamint  [<font color="Red">Comm |<font color="Black">Files ] 12:39, 14 August 2013 (EDT)
 * (reset indent) I added pictures that highlighted critical moments throughout the game. I can add a few more, but keep in mind that there is such a thing as having too many pictures in an article. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmission |<font color="Green">Commencing ] 13:02, 14 August 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
 * You don't have to add more. I think what you added was enough. Trust me, I know. Learned that from the numerous comments made by Subtank (and she's right). I noticed you added more images than expected. But its kool. I was just looking for those critical images as the original ones I saw were kind-of meh IMO. But you got my vote. :)-- Killamint  [<font color="Red">Comm |<font color="Black">Files ] 14:37, 14 August 2013 (EDT)
 * Yeah. I'm glad you caught on. There does seem to be many articles with way too many pictures added. I'm still working on trying to rectify that, with partial success. Creating an image category usually is the solution. The question is, which ones stay, and which ones go? -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmission |<font color="Green">Commencing ] 14:42, 14 August 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

I'll add something to the recent changes to advertise Featured Articles.-- 14:50, 14 August 2013 (EDT)

Reason: I think that the page is very interesting and gives insights to one of Halo's many enemies (or in Halo 3, allies).

Votes

 * - Very detailed, well sourced, fair amount of pictures and overall looks very good.-- 13:32, 19 August 2013 (EDT)

Catherine Halsey (Approved)
Reason: Nominating this again. Because it's detailed, has good pictures, is well organized, and the conspicuous lack of Spartan Ops Season 2 means we don't have to worry about incoming information cluttering it up again so soon.

Reason: It is very detailed, well organized, has plenty of pictures, and it meets all requirements. That and it is the most powerful starship the UNSC has built. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmission |<font color="Green">Commencing ] 11:53, 12 October 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

There is an ongoing development in Initiation comic book and presumably in the upcoming Escalation comic book that renders it impossible for the nominated article to be considered. It would fail in the immediate category, "Information", where not everything is properly sourced and is open to being altered subject to the comic books. Until the subject's development is stable, I don't think it is suitable. On top of that, the gallery can be shortened by using the Linkbox template and moving the less relevant images into a category (like how we did with other articles). — subtank   11:57, 13 October 2013 (EDT)
 * There already is an existing linkbox on the article. All the images that are on the article have been placed there, and so any image that need not really be there can be removed. Anyway, you do have a good point. I have a list of potential featured articles I can choose from. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmission |<font color="Green">Commencing ] 13:45, 13 October 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

Reason: Very detailed, meets all requirements, and pretty much complete overall. That and I believe it's time we gave this noteworthy starship some respect and admiration for its place in Halo history and lore. -- Xamikaze330  [<font color="Blue">Transmission |<font color="Green">Commencing ] 11:55, 18 October 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330

I'm going to let this one go a little longer, as I feel two votes isn't quite enough for a consensus. Anyways, the new two week limit requirement will apply to each nomination after this one.-- 13:04, 2 November 2013 (EDT)
