Halopedia talk:Layout guide

Regarding "List of Appearances" section

I think it's best to list them according to their media category rather than according to their first appearance. Such order makes much more sense given that we now have indicators such as (First appearance) and (First mentioned). This is because when the Layout Guide was first presented, we didn't have such indicators. — subtank 19:23, 11 May 2012 (EDT)

I've always been annoyed when I see an article with a list showing the item's first appearance being halfway down the list. It doesn't make sense to me to have The Fall of Reach being listed below other things such as Halo 4 when it has a first appearance tag. In my opinion, it's more professional to list media items in order of release date. These are the two current formats.

Release date format

• Halo: The Fall of Reach (First appearance)
• Halo 2
• Halo 3
• Halo 4

Media category

• Halo 2
• Halo 3
• Halo 4
• Halo: The Fall of Reach (First appearance)

Which one looks the best?-- Col. Spartacus ^{Talk Page} _{Contributions} 19:38, 11 May 2012 (EDT)
