Want to help out and make this site a better place? Here are a list of tasks that need to be done.

Halopedia Image Gallery
Just thinking that to really improve the space we need some more graphics like they have at Wookieepedia. A Halopedia Image Gallery has been created and I hope everyone can show off their Photoshop skills.

Think you know everything?
So think you know everything about the Halo universe? Well then you can help clear up Heretic lies from Gospel truth! These articles need proof!!  Please add sources or confirm that they are in fact lies told by the unbelievers! Some examples:


 * What is a Kelorist? See the Reference here Mamore
 * Is CVS-class a real class of Covenant ship? Discuss here

Did you know?
We should also do a "Did you know?"--JohnSpartan117 01:22, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, like "Did you know that ...." Just to help your point. --ah2190 07:32, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Firefox Halopedia Toolbar
It's like the google toolbar --Doomguy0505 07:41, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Download it at Halopedia:Search Plugin --Doomguy0505 10:54, 11 November 2006 (UTC)
 * What does it do? -- Esemono 12:30, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Here's a screenshot http://img150.imageshack.us/img150/8198/hpediavj5.th.jpg

Showers?
Supposedly this is a gametype like Slayer or Oddball but I can't find any info on it. Anybody know what the Showers gametype is? -- Yamanba 01:51, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I haven't heard of it. --Dragonclaws 02:43, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
 * I've seen mention of it on various sites like Halowiki.net or halo.neoseeker.com but I've never actually seen the game rules described. -- Esemono 00:16, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Well I don't really like the multyplayer things that arn't my bro. I'm more of a cheating on campain an killing Regret in afew seconds AND NEVER DIE, HA HA HA. -- Leckgolo43423:10, 9 November 2006 (edit)
 * Showers is using the sentinel beams as the only weapon on the multiplayer map. Its actually called golden showers, and its in referrence to a certain gross sexual fetish. LMAO. Gotta love Bungie. Love, a friend of a friend (Who isn't into that kind of stuff.)

Halopedia Clan

 * Anyone interested in a Halo 2 clan for Halopedia, please post your gamertag. --Dragonclaws 08:10, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Where are the games?
Do you know any places with online Halo games because I hate having to look at all those things that come up when you search--prophit of war 01:29, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Try Halo Movie Online it's a Halo message board with an arcade. --Dragonclaws 22:35, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

Where is the Plasma Mortar Article?

 * I think the covanant weapons page needs to be updated with a plasma mortar article like the one I created but that was deleted. --

Why no augmentations mentioned on the Spartan One Page?

 * The Orion Project page dosn't talk about the augmentations that the Spartan 1's had--
 * We can only list information we know. The books follow the second and third projects with only passing mention of the first. --Dragonclaws 01:40, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Add to the trivia!
Did you know the merines in the Halo 2 demo trailer say the same phrases as in metropolis. Why isn't this added anywhere?

Pronunciation
Ex. merine(mar-een) I can pronounce that but not sharquoi, only type it.
 * I think hard to pronounce words should have how to pronounce words should have how to pronounce them in parenthisese.
 * Well, alien names we don't know how to pronounce because we've only seen them in text. Sharquoi I'd pronounce "shark-woy(rhymes with boy)", but that's not official. --Dragonclaws 00:09, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh, well I just wanted to know how to pronounce these things but if there not offitial...eh oh well. Thanks. Wait a minite I'm saying oh well alot aren't I...yeah I am.


 * Hey, how would you pronounce Jirallhanae?--prophit of war 01:57, 18 November 2006 (UTC)69.152.233.196 01:55, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I pronounce it "jee-ral(rhymes with Paul)-hawn-ay", but that's an actual word in Korean, so I could be wrong. --Dragonclaws 01:43, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Covenant Ship Classifications
We need to hammer out what is real and what isn't. It's getting crazy with people making up ship classifications so please prove these exist in the Halo Universe:


 * Holy hell. I know that's the biggest oxymoron of all time, BUT...wow. You're going insane killing these things. ESEMONO, I BEG YOU: READ THE BOOKS AND SEE FOR YOUR OWN EYES! Okay! I will provide your little page numbers later, but first...Cheersm  Relentless Recusant [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]] 02:20, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Ship Naming Scheme
RelentlessRecusant has been able to hack the article titles allowing special characters to be used to display the article name i.e. it's now possible to ilovebees all in lower characters.

It has been proposed that for ships that we italicize the name. What is consenus with the naming convention? Should we italicize the names? Something else? -- Esemono 16:16, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

For all ships, I recommend...XYZ-class Cruiser, ABC-class Frigate, etc...for individual ship names, use: UNSC XYZ, or for Covvie ships, use JKL. This is standard naval terminology. To write a hyperlink to a UNSC ship within an article, insert: For example, appears as.

And don't worry, Esemono. I'm keeping a sharp look over fanon ships. I am not purposely making up fanon, and if you check ht epage histories, you'll see me reverting fanon stuff.

Cheers,
