'''TL;DR:''' A new, optional MediaWiki skin is available for Halopedia, titled Onyx. It is an improved recreation of the Oasis skin used by Wikia/FANDOM on their wikis. The skin can be selected as your personal default in [[Special:Preferences]], and can be previewed on any page by adding <code>?useskin=onyx</code> to its URL. All feedback, positive or negative, is welcome and appreciated, and I encourage you to try Onyx out and [[Special:WikiForum/Onyx Early Access - Feedback Thread|let me know what you think!]] | '''TL;DR:''' A new, optional MediaWiki skin is available for Halopedia, titled Onyx.

<small>'''PS:'' Some of you who I have spoken to about this project on Discord or elsewhere may be wondering about the status of Onyx’s companion project, Trevelyan. For those unaware, Trevelyan is a similar project, but for the mobile side of the wiki. It aims to recreate - albeit loosely - and improve upon Wikia’s mobile skin, Mercury, and produce a mobile companion to Onyx that has feature parity with its big brother, in the hopes of providing a much improved experience for both reading ''and'' editing the wiki on the go. Though I had initially intended a simultaneous release, Onyx took an unexpectedly long time to develop due to a number of factors (chiefly, lack of familiarity with the language and MediaWiki API, and lack of time due to my own life getting in the way), and I didn’t want to delay its release any longer. I’m not ready to give an ETA for Trevelyan yet, but I haven’t given up on the project, so expect it some time in the future.</small> | <small>'''PS:''' Some of you who I have spoken to about this project on Discord or elsewhere may be wondering about the status of Onyx’s companion project, Trevelyan.
