Halopedia:FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I edit such-and-such, change such-and-such, add such-and-such, create such-and-such, or delete such-and-such?

 * Yes! This is a wiki. By all means, do what you want. If we didn't want you editing/creating documents, we wouldn't give everyone the ability to do so, would we?! If you've done something wrong, we'll let you know. In this community, it's better to ask forgiveness later than permission now. All we ask is that in doing so you follow the guidelines and to be kind.

How do I add an image here on Halopedia?

 * You can add an image very easily just follow these instructions

How do I create a page here on Halopedia?

 * When you edit a page, you can add "" and "" around a word to make it an internal link (a link to a Halopedia article). If there is no page that exists with that name, the link will be red and you can write the page. It is good to use the search bar first to make sure that there isn't already a page with a similar name.

I have a great idea for a vehicle/weapon/character, can I add it to Halopedia?

 * No. Halopedia should only contain information that is Bungie canon. Perhaps you would like to write a story using your ideas and submit it to a site that accepts fanfiction, such as Fanfiction.Net. Alternatively, we have Halofanon and Gruntipedia, where your ideas can find a home.

I want to share some of the glitches I know. How do I get them on the list?

 * Give a name to these glitches or use a common one, and add links to the list. See "creating pages" above. Then write articles about the glitches. You might want to check through the list to make sure there isn't already mention of such glitches under an unfamiliar name.

How can I play Ogg sound files?

 * See here for instructions.

What's the deal with the Cabal?

 * On April Fools' Day of 2007, the official Halopedia joke was a page claiming that Halopedia is secretly run by a mysterious cabal led by the admins and other prominent users.
