 * That site seems to have stopped working. Luckily, you can continue working on this Wikia instead. We have at least 10 servers now, so these issues are far less likely to affect this Halo wiki than the other ones you might find on the Internet. Angela (talk) 10:51, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Halopedia vs Halo

 * This wikia is nothing comapred to halopedia because almost nobody is helping it grow. It's also kinda funny that evrybody is helping halopedia instead of this halo wikia. -gb2u
 * Halopedia is bigger but it's dead, this Halo isn't trying to replace Halopedia just provide resources because Halopedia doesn't have the means to operate.

Migration

 * So you guys want to move Halopedia here? We don't have the means to operate. -- Steve (talk) 04:07, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Any articles from anywhere are welcomed!  If you want to put in the time with the migration I can give you admin status!Esemono 06:31, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
 * That sounds a great idea. Do you know how to use Special:Export to automatically move the pages over? You can use that as long as the two wikis use the same license (GFDL). If you can convince some people on that wiki to come over and help, it would make the transition much easier. Angela (talk) 12:12, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I would organize the troops and have them move pages. But I was thinking more having this be Halopedia's new home, not just moving articles over. So it would be like the same site at a different location. I know that would benefit this site, too, since Halopedia got really popular with a lot of fans when it was linked from Bungie.net. People know the name and are used to the layout, etc. I guess I would have otherwise requested a wiki here for the site, but there already is a Halo wiki. I hope I'm not asking too much so hopefully we can work something out. -- Steve (talk) 19:11, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Most of the pages are already from Halopedia anyway.  My only conern is that the migration will delete the orginial pages that this site has... but I don't have  a problem with using the halopedia name or anything.  PS you now have admin status. Esemono 22:49, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Psst, my username is Porplemontage. But with the pages if the content isn't covered in the Halopedia page being transferred we can always merge content. A think a lot of the transferring will be manual so with the history preserved information won't be lost. And I still need to get AgentSeethroo's input, who I'm trying to contact. -- Steve (talk) 01:34, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
 * OK I think you're set up now.  You should rally the troops as you said and start transfering the content.   I have no problems with the Halopedia as it's an established brand. Esemono 05:47, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Yo we're still not confirmed. I messaged AgentSeethroo today but I couldn't get a response from him. So don't do anything yet, but I'm wondering, is it possible to have the name of the wiki changed to Halopedia if we are going to do this? -- Steve (talk) 05:56, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
