Update required

Changes required to this mediawiki page:

• Change "We Are ODST" to "The Life"
• Add "Halo Waypoint" link under Community Related Sites
• Remove "Ascendant Justice" link under Community Related Sites as it is no longer updated by the site's staff
• Remove "Halo Wars" link under Community Related Sites as Microsoft has pulled support from it and it will most likely be merged into Halo Waypoint
• Remove "Disbanded Usergroup" link since all it does is attracting unneeded traffic/attention

That's it I guess. :) — subtank 11:49, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

Done, thanks for the head's up Kai! User:CommanderTony/Sig

Shouldn't Bornstellar Makes Eternal Lasting and perhaps the Didact be added to the "Main Book Characters" tab? --"Government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have." -Thomas Jefferson 14:26, 17 April 2011 (EDT)

Community sites

Shouldn't halo.xbox.com be included in the community section of related sites? -- SFH 13:41, 11 June 2011 (EDT)

It's linked under it's official name as Halo Waypoint. User:CommanderTony/Sig

Ah, my mistake. I was looking in Related Sites, didn't know it was at Gameplay. Sorry. -- SFH 16:15, 11 June 2011 (EDT)

Format for Games

I suggest following the one currently used in Template:Halo Games. To make it simpler, just copy the following:

**Category:Games|Original Trilogy
***Halo: Combat Evolved|Halo: Combat Evolved
***Halo 2|Halo 2
***Halo 3|Halo 3
***Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary|Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary

Because I care. :) — subtank 18:53, 11 June 2011 (EDT)

Remove old stuff

Wouldn't it be better to remove the old stuff, i.e. disbanded, or no longer in use? Of course, I am referring to "HOTM", "Usergroups" and "Parodies".

While you're on it, please replace "Category:Halopedia Policy" with "Category:Halopedia policies". :) — subtank 16:13, 27 September 2013 (EDT)

Good point. I'll remove them and replace the categories as well.--Spartacus ^{Talk • Contribs} 19:59, 27 September 2013 (EDT)

There is already a bunch of stuff in the comic and film categories to warrant their separated inclusion on the sidebar from what is predominately books. Might be easier to have one less step in the process for two of the more rapidly growing mediums for Halo. Helianthus — All right. Shoot!
