I propose that the Achievements (Halo 3) be split off into its own article, [[Achievements (Halo 3)]] (as per the naming convention set by [[List of Achievements for Halo 2 Vista]]). The list and guide used to be their own article at [http://halo.wikia.com/index.php?title=Halo_3_Achievements&oldid=644479 Halo 3 Achievments]. That article was suggested for merging on [http://halo.wikia.com/index.php?title=Halo_3_Achievements&direction=next&oldid=634251 October 9th], but there was never any discussion about the matter until it was [http://halo.wikia.com/index.php?title=Halo_3_Achievements&oldid=650934 redirected on October 25th] and [http://halo.wikia.com/index.php?title=Achievement&oldid=650939 the whole article was slapped into this one]. This article starts off talking about achievements, but suddenly the whole thing shifts to specifically Halo 3 achievements. Not only is this bad form, it sets a bad precedent for future Halo games. What happens when ODST and Halo Wars come out? Are we going to add all of their achievements into this article? Finally, this section is so monstorously large (another sign showing that it shouldn't be here) that [http://halo.wikia.com/index.php?title=Template:Achievement&oldid=650943 it was split off already]... but not into it's own article, into a ''template''. I think that is a clear enough sign that this section needs to be split off. Templates are for things you want to do over and over again, not for hiding your articles when they get too long. This is just very bad form. Please voice your opinions so we can clear this matter up. Do you oppose or support splitting the list off into a new article? -- [[User:Couchpotato99|<font color="red">Couchpotato99</font>]] <small>[[User talk:Couchpotato99|<font color="blue">(talk)</font>]] [[Special:Contributions/Couchpotato99|<font color="blue">(contribs)</font>]]</small> 17:14, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
