Halopedia talk:Projects/Improvement

General note: While users may nominate any article for the project, it is useful to first consider the significance of the article in question. As a general rule, it should be noted that canonically significant subjects with potentially higher page traffic should take precedence over lesser ones, e.g. supporting characters. Articles about recently-released media are also often in need of updating. Pages that require more drastic improvement should take priority over ones with less problems; a good rule would be that if an article can be fixed by a single user in a few minutes, it does not belong on the list.

Suggestion
I am not sure if this is the proper place to add this, so please feel free to remove this if I am wrong. Anyway, I have a possibly useful suggestion. After an article is considered complete, or improved, we can "check" it off in some form. This will let other users know what articles are done, and possibly lead them to ensure that the article is, in fact, improved. - NightHammer (talk) 16:37, 14 May 2014 (EDT)
 * This was part of my original idea, but I thought it would add an extra layer of work to the project that could instead be spent improving articles. I also thought it might discourage editors from making an article even better even if the basic standards have technically been met. Still, I can see the benefit of it in terms of informativeness and motivation. Could try it on the next round. --Jugus (Talk  | Contribs ) 00:03, 15 May 2014 (EDT)

Article suggestions
I have a couple article suggestions for future weeks. All pages relating to the Yanme'e need vast amounts of updating. I also think that Tartarus could use some work. A lot of the Halo 4 enemy rank pages could also use a bit of expansion, like the Sangheili Storm or the Kig-Yar Heavy for example. Although, I do think it is a good idea to improve the multiplayer content on the wiki. - NightHammer (talk) 20:53, 19 May 2014 (EDT)
 * Little bump. We really need to make some of the "newer" weapon articles bigger along with adding info to pretty much all the Halo 4 multiplayer maps. Old vs. New. Sith-venator Wavingstrider  Fett helmet.jpg ( Commlink ) 00:35, 17 September 2014 (EDT)

Reminder for deprecated templates
Just a general reminder that we have outdated templates that needs to be replaced with updated ones. All the templates listed in that category page should be removed from all articles whenever possible. Also, the Covenant Rank infobox needs to be replaced with the Unit infobox. For reference, check Elite Minor which has the updated template.— subtank   14:05, 2 June 2014 (EDT)

Suggestion for Improvement
Here's an improvement suggestion. The list of Forge objects needs to be updated to include all Halo 4-related material, including creation of subpages for each individual category. It seems these lists have been forgotten.-- 16:19, 25 June 2014 (EDT)
 * In addition to the above, putting the feature list to use where necessary. :)-- 12:27, 27 June 2014 (EDT)

Bornstellar's ancilla
I think someone who has a good knowledge of Halo: Cryptum could definitely be useful by creating an article for this ancilla. I can't really help, since I read the book in 2012, and I can't really remember the details about this character. (and my book is like at the other end of the world) But I do remember that she was a character with a decent amount of information and background, seen both in the first chapters of the novel and then later when she's reunited with Bornstellar for Faber's trial. I think the page title "Bornstellar's ancilla" should work fine, since she doesn't have a name as far as I can remember. It's been some time now that I've refrained myself from creating the article, since I can't really say more than four or five sentences about her. If no one does it, I will probably do it myself later. But I'm just checking if anyone think they can do a good job on this. Imrane-117 (talk) 20:49, 14 November 2014 (EST)
 * I'm not sure if she's actually reunited with Bornstellar at any point later on (but then it's been a while since I last read Cryptum). But I agree there should be enough material for a page (as there is with Bornstellar's mother and sister). I've entertained the idea of having a constant "articles to be created" list on the page as there's a bunch of articles I've never gotten around to making; other people could also suggest their own additions here. --Jugus (Talk  | Contribs ) 11:03, 16 November 2014 (EST)
