Cleanup/merge targets
I've been going through the current Halo articles, and I've been thinking about additional merges and content folding based on the states of articles and available sourcing. Some of these need to get a proper merge discussion involved, but I wanted to run things up the flagpole here first.
- Halo Online-->Halo (franchise)#Cancelled projects—This stuff can get summarized and supplement the main section; I've been working on cleaning this stuff out with summary style so there's plenty of room.
- Red vs. Blue (season 3) (and all other season articles) --> List of Red vs. Blue episodes—what's in these articles is basically a paragraph of (usually unsourced) production info and then just longer versions of the episode listings with more plot summaries. I think this stuff could and should get folded into the list and main article, as there's really no reliable sources talking about critical reception for these seasons to suggest standalone notability.
- Blood Gulch-->This feels like another case of "technically might be notable enough", but not really worth mentioning outside of the reception of CE.
- Halo Championship Series and various esports stuff-->I think a Halo eSports or whatever catch-all article is probably best for this, since there's a ton of history and I don't think individual championships are generally notable.

- (As an update, I've started merge discussions at Halo (franchise) and List of Red vs. Blue episodes. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 16:47, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
- (Further update: Merge of all the RvB seasons into the main list is complete.) Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 17:19, 18 October 2019 (UTC)
- Might be a good time to re-merge the Red Versus Blue episodes articles back into one article. Looks like there are three, there should be one. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 21:48, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
Blood Gulch deletion discussion
Could use opinions from WP:Halo members. Deletion debate is here. JOEBRO64 22:19, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
Request for information on WP1.0 web tool
Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.
We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions at this Google form where you can leave your response. Walkerma (talk) 04:24, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
Hello everyone! I've just created a draft for the Noble Team. Any help would be greatly appreciated! The Optimistic One (talk) 18:06, 7 July 2020 (UTC)
- Hey Optimistic One, late to the party here, but I don't think Noble Team meets Wikipedia's threshold for inclusion as a notable subject in its own right, versus the games. Outside of Reach, they're barely mentioned in other Halo media, let alone significantly by secondary sources. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 19:00, 7 November 2020 (UTC)
Reassessing WP:HALO assessments
I haven't really done anything about it, but I've noticed for a while our assessment ratings for top/high/mid/low importance don't seem to make a ton of sense. Lots of related articles have different assessment levels for no discernible reason. I was thinking of trying to organize it a bit more logically, to me, a la:
- Top: Halo (franchise), List of Halo media, and the mainline games.
- High: Major spinoffs (a la Halo Wars, Halo: Reach and the like), Most important characters (Master Chief (Halo) and Cortana (Halo)).
- Mid: Major universe articles (Factions of Halo, Characters of Halo, etc.), 343 Industries, Master Chief Collection feels like it ought to be here as a major PC release, as opposed to low.
- Low: Everything else (EU novels, minor universe articles, personnel, tangential pieces a la Marketing of Halo 3, etc., and minor spinoffs like Halo: Spartan Assault.)

- It sounds good, does well to go from the center outwards in terms of importance. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 21:45, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
