Ah thats a fantastic catch. Archive.org refused to work well with that site... till recently! So good job! You saved some canon!

I'll get a video made of Week 0! So its safe!

Look at that thing: it's quite clearly the Gravemind. Along with having the Gravemind's signature teeth, it looks to be a depiction of the monster about to consume a planet. What other monsters do we know with giant mouths, distinctive teeth, have a habit of consuming planets and match Kwan's description so perfectly??? I think that the old lady, or whatever is using her form is actually a Forerunner AI, the one that set the Ha family on its path. It was mentioned in Inheritance, remember??? Either that or Halo has ghosts now!!! She seemed weird in Sanctuary too.

Okay. Cool. Why did you message me that???

Yeah, it would be best to deal with these on a case-by-case basis, unfortunately. Best to bring these up on talk pages or the Discord server.

Generally, yes. However, I would suggest avoiding simply using "X is a Y" for every character page.

That's totally fair, yeah - I just wanted to mention it. For specific stuff like weapons, feel free to give me a shout if you need any help! (We also have a pretty active Discord channel too)

Hey, when uploading images it'd be great if you could also remember to add image categories for them. In the File Upload form, they can be found in that little bit next to Categories: - just click the "+" button to add them.

I've done an example here on one of your previous uploads https://www.halopedia.org/index.php?title=File%3AHTVS2_-_Kai125.jpg&type=revision&diff=1612949&oldid=1612948

Image categories are a really helpful way for us to manage and maintain the site, so it'd be much appreciated to do while doing lots of uploads in a short timeframe.

Yep - multiple citations for a given piece of information is a very useful thing to have, in the event that one page goes down.

Hey. Please refrain from outright removing citations from a page. Thanks.

Its not something we are putting a focus on anymore. Along with the systems numerous issues, we want to push everyone being Halopedians.

But if you really want. We kept the leaderboard page up. But its nothing we will ever "push" on the face of the wiki.

Hey there, again can you stop removing the space before }} in some templates on the wiki. Its there to stop users deleting it when changing stuff on infobox templates. :)

We can very easily bot that if we wanted to fix that.

Tip: Please stop moving the }} to the previous line. I just noticed, and we have it on the next line so its easier to add/change info on the last input area without causing issues. Thankies.

While you cant really do much with it yourself atm (we are still doing a lotta work to it) here is the link to our Archive we are working on. May help provide a lil context to what I just said. https://www.halopedia.org/Archive:Main

Oh old/current Waypoint links are part of an overhaul Halopedia is currently working on regarding our "Archive:" namespace. That is due to be more obvious in the coming weeks. :) Right now its archiving everything into Archive.org so we can be 100% safe. Then we move onto the Archive namespace work. Then we move onto the source rehauls.

In the example you gave. I wouldnt worry about it too much right now as its already noted as a big part of "old waypoint" that it will be one of the first things sorted. (Its number 7 in my list)

Hey again, you caught me just as I was winding down for the night. As you said its essentially to reduce editing difficulty.

Among other factors like it looks neater and flows better. And big blocks of text push away editlrs.

Oh and the biggie. If a new section is added. The space is added automatically. Its such a standard that its baked into Mediawiki itself. I just made sure of that myself. So we'd be fighting the wiki itself.

Regardless we keep the space. :)

Hello there, first thanks for the edits. Now I have a favor cause I keep reverting the edits cause its kinda a issue.

Can you please stop removing the spaces after each header. We have them there so its easier to edit pages instead of them being 1 block of text.

Thankies~
