As you are probably aware, there are substantial problems with the forums - new topics are not listed on the main forum page. This is a problem occuring on other Wikis as well, which I am trying to rectify if it is a local problem, and which Wikia, Inc. will correct if it is a MediaWiki problem.

== Cannon Cock up (I think) ==


Into [[MediaWiki:Sitenotice]]. I have done a large amount of research on MediaWiki v1.9, which we have just upgraded to last night, and am just detailing the ramifications of the upgrade and also announcing the forum breakdown.
Hi, I'm pretty new to the whole halopedia thing so I figured i should probably ask what to do (I found you'r name on a discussion tab, please let me know if i should send this to someone else).


Thank you.
I listened to the axon sound files in "I love bees" and noticed that there seems to be a problem with the timeline of the Spartan II project in relation to Jan, Durga and Kamal's respective ages.


Best regards,
According to you'r page on the spartan projects the potential candidates for the Spartan II project were abducted in 2517. Yasmine died during her augmentation process in 2525, Durga is created at this point. As she is 7 years old when she meets Jersey the year must be 2532, according to "I love bees" this is the time that the covenant first attacked earth, however, according to the novels, games and your own timeline this did not occur untill 2552, twenty years later.


[[user:RelentlessRecusant|<font color="#D3D3D3">Gho</font><font color="#A9A9A9">st I</font><font color="#808080">nsi</font><font color="#000000">de the M</font><font color="#808080">ach</font><font color="#A9A9A9">ine</font>]] <font color="#808080"><sup>''([[user talk:RelentlessRecusant|<font color="#808080">Whisper through the Storm</font>]]) ([[Special:Contributions/RelentlessRecusant|<font color="#808080">My Journeys</font>]]) ([[w:c:gearsofwar:user:RelentlessRecusant|<font color="#808080">Omens</font>]])</sup></font> 00:07, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
Also, the time between Jan's attemped abduction by ONI and the time when she appears in "I love bees" is said to be 15 years (2517-2532) meaning that if she was six years old at the time she must now be 21, however, her age is given as 17.
I dont know wether this issue has been adressed before as I only listened to the axon sound files a few days ago, if they have I apologise for wasting your time.


== message function edits ==


Dear Ed,
PS


I have done a small amount of research on the MediaWiki, and have come up with proposed MediaWiki edits on [[User:RelentlessRecusant/Tech]]. Please implement what is on there, and I believe the message function will be restored to v1.8-era by my manual patches. Thnx.
Christ i hope this is going to the admin's page and not straight up on the site.


Cheers,
== Hey ==

Dear Ed,


I'm pleased to announce that I have fixed the forums. The error was caused by an error in MediaWiki v1.9, but my measure is a (fully functional) stopgap before the Central Wiki fixes it and reloads it onto Halopedia.

I thought users could only do one term in a row for the Fan Art Committee. However, Ryangreenday is running for re-election, is this allowed?

:The Halo series is going in a different direction tahtn other sci-fi universes. Halo is immensely popular and makes huge money for bungie, as well as keeping fans like us hooked on it. Someday they may publish technical manuals, starship and fleet schematics, and the like, but for now, they have only limited manpower, and are pushing for quality over quantity.
