User:CIA391/Projects

This is a list of projects CIA391 is doing or is/has planned to do.

User page file use Policy v0.1
A policy on what can go on a userpage or not, and what to use instead if you want something.

On your userpage a total of 5 files are allowed to be used. These can range from your personal images or mainspace images.

We regret having to be legalistic about this (the wiki is supposed to be lighthearted and fun, after all), but we have grown to the point that having a standard is necessary, and simply giving free rein in this area is counter to the goals of the knowledge base.

If more than 5 images are on a userpage you will be notified and will have to choose. If you have not chosen within a week the Halopedia team will remove the mainspace files first, if no mainspace assets are on the page the team will delete the oldest user files. This will be done till there is 5 files left on the page.

Uploaded gallery
You are not allowed to have a gallery of every image you upload. You can search your profile here and link this instead to get the same result. https://www.halopedia.org/Special:ListFiles

Sandbox Exception
In the case of the files being used in a sandbox. These files are allowed to be there for 1 month since the last edit.

Projects for 2019 (Will do VERY IMPORTANT!!!!!)

 * Halopedia Community Team (Name pending a change to be more ace but right now it says as it does on the tin): This is something that I been wanting to do in some form for years. Get a bunch of Halo fans who love Halo, share their love of Halo. And as we are on Halopedia make the most of the platform we are on. This will consist of the "News", "Social Media", interacting with fans to help them out with lore and potentially other stuff, make videos, find stuff that is interesting no matter its source to share to Halo fans (sourced of course), and also have fun.


 * Operation: Spartan Field Guide: A project to update all our Gameplay, achievement, secrets, and so on pages. This is so we can escape our "lore" stigma we are in. While its ace we are known for our lore, we can aim to do so much more.


 * HWA: Halopedia admins know this. Just this is us making it public.


 * Wiki support network: Make a network of wikis that starts with wikis under porples control to assist each other if its needed.


 * Emergency Patroller Protocol: A protocol to be drafted that "in the event" of Halopedia having less than 6 admins, we ask Destinypedia (may link this with the Wiki support network plan) to come into play and assist us till we get back on our feet with Patrollers hoping to be admins.


 * User page overhaul: After the merger get a overhaul of userpages done so they are easier on all users. Even if it means a reset on the wikitext on a lot of pages.


 * Disambiguation pages fix: Pages that are Disambiguation pages and pages with Disambiguation headers (and similar stuff) have a major issue of not showing text in links and are due a major overhaul on the wiki.

For the news
These assets I refuse to delete in the hopes I can use em for the news later.

Category fixing up
There is a lot of stuff needed to improve categories so to prepare for it. Here is a bunch of links most of which are Shazamikazes galleries atm that will ultimately improve stuff in the long run.
