:Done. Just to point out that that ''Halo Nation'' only caters to one theme whereas ''Halopedia'' is maintaining two themes. Since we don't have a working script that switches the theme on the fly, we have to ensure that the templates work on both dark and default theme.

Hi editors!
We are currently rolling out an experiment on a dark theme for the wiki. For now, it is restricted to the wiki's Vector skin. If it works with Vector, the experiment will be implemented on the wiki's default skin (which is called the Nimbus skin).
- If you're interested in testing out this dark theme, simply follow the following steps
- Click here.
- Select Vector and save your changes.
- Copy the code in this page and add in to your own vector.css page. Save thereafter.
For some users, you may need to force your browser to clear their cache to see the changes. The instructions are on your vector.css page.
- Known issues
- Most templates are incompatible with the dark theme: they're ugly for now.
This will be an ongoing experiment. Have fun testing it out! — subtank 14:25, 15 September 2017 (EDT)
