Hello everyone, I am Arcmind. I signed up for Halopedia a while back, but did not have any idea on how to edit on a wiki, so i went mostly dormant. However i have gained tons of experience helping on the regular wiki and so forth.

If you guys would allow me, i can create a more accessible Timeline for Halo. What i mean by that is, right now, (For Me Anyway) The Halopedia Timeline is a little hard to get at in the sense that if you want to see a particular date, you need to scroll through a list, and to go to the next date in the sequence, you have to scroll again. However what i am proposing, is that i create a large page complete with all of the dates, and their attached information. That way we can map out the entire universe. From there, we can classify the dates into eras, ans so forth. Well, what do you think?

I think there is way too much to all be on single page, but it would help enormously to be able to click "next" or "previous". If I'm looking at the page for 2525, I should be able to click "next" and instantly be taken to the page for 2526. {{unsigned|Japeth555}}
 
Yes, but i would if i wrote the timeline in sections, it would be very manageable. Making things way easier on Fans....How about this, if i can create the page to the community's liking, in the sandbox, then might the admins at least consider making the transition? {{unsigned|Arcmind}}

Oh, i see that page is similar, but i wanted to make  page complete with all of the events in the halo universe. Basically taking the events in the timeline, and then just put them in a complete page instead of a chart.

:So pretty much... moving all the timeline pages into one mega-page...

:So um sadly I am against this idea. Sorry friend. But if majority agrees with the idea. I will play along. Never been one to argue on something in this regard.-[[User:CIA391|CIA391]] ([[User talk:CIA391|talk]]) 20:24, 21 July 2016 (EDT)

Your opinion is understandable. I am a huge halo fan, so the timeline is of no use to me, just thought i would create it for those who need it. Thanks for your input. :)

I hate it when wikis do that, to me it seems lazy. [[User:Alertfiend|Alertfiend]] - Warning, my comments may appear passive aggressive. <small>([[User talk:AlertFiend|Converse]]) </small> 21:23, 21 July 2016 (EDT)
