Halo News Network Template and stuff to update[edit]

News example template[edit]

This is the Halo News Network article example. Most issues will use this format. (Still a Work in Progress so until its finished this may not be used consistently)

Here is a link to the header template also for every issue that is also being worked on. As it is a work in progress it might change as time goes on.

Stuff to update with every release[edit]

Every time a new news article is posted. The following areas must be updated to have the most recent news on it.

News:Main: The main news page. This is where all the news get put.
News:Archive: Put down when the news article was published.
MediaWiki:Sitenotice: Replace the last issue with the newest one.
Main_Page/News: Replace the last issue with the newest one.

Section Two[edit]

Since this wiki is under the management of Section One, may I propose that all news should be handled by Section Two? It's only fair for our concerned public. — subtank 13:46, 25 September 2017 (EDT)

-(A History page will be made when the News Namespace is made)
-===Oracle Newsletter===
-The Oracle Newsletter was originally started by '''RelentlessRecusant''' on December 30, 2006 in an effort to educate Halopedia members about what work needed to be done and also to add a bit of fun into the lives of Halopedians. It was haltingly designed, written, and distributed by RelentlessRecusant himself until the night of February 10, 2007, when the acclaimed user '''Guesty-Persony-Thingy''' offered to help write and distribute the Oracle Newsletter.
-The two brought the Oracle Newsletter from its state of torpor, and RelentlessRecusant graphically redesigned the newsletter in accordance with the new trendy color schemes, while Guesty-Persony-Thingy reorganized the newsletter and worked on the content. Both agreed to distribute the newsletter on Saturday nights regularly.

+Every time a new news article is posted. The following areas must be updated to have the most recent news on it.

+*[[Main_Page/News]]: Replace the last issue with the newest one.
-After yet another state of depression for nearly a month, on May 20, 2007, RelentlessRecusant restarted the ''Oracle Newsletter'' in yet a ''third'' different skin with the help of a new staff writer, '''Phil.e.''' and a new graphical designer, '''Caboose'''. Later, '''CommanderTony''' and '''TheObviousOne''' were recruited for their knowledge about the ''Halo 3 Beta''. Volunteer '''James-001''' later lent a large helping hand to the ''Oracle Newsletter'', and was accepted as an Intern Writer on June 24, 2007. In the following two days, RelentlessRecusant accepted six more intern writers: '''2401 PT''', '''David Fuchs''', '''Echelon3''', '''GhostXIII''', '''Spartan-091''', and '''Spartytime'''.

-Due to some unknown reason (but presumably preoccupation with other tasks), production of the ''Oracle'' was halted in July, with Issue XVI being the last to be published. With the introduction of the Halopedia Podcast, and the fact that issues had ceased to be published, RelentlessRecusant stepped down as Editor-in-Chief, and appointed '''Manticore''' as his replacement as Editor-in-Chief on September 16, 2007.  Manticore only produced one issue and officially resigned on January 16, 2008. '''Forgottenlord'''' appointed himself editor-in-chief on July 26, 2008 and has since brought the Oracle back to monthly distribution till Volume XX.

-Halopedia News was then brought back in a new form around March 31st and brought news often daily for the year of 2009. Managing to get 2 big interviews. Though it was was officially disbanded by CommanderTony on February 7th, 2010 due to a lack of interest by the community and by a majority of the staff.
