Forum:Halo Fanon: WE GON REVIEW YOUR SHIT

*Name suggestion by Brodie-001

Wassup Halo Fanon, it's Sona here, and no, I'm not dead. I'm currently finishing up my school semester and am extremely busy with exams, hence the prolonged absence. But I do have big plans for this summer, one of which I will get into now.

If there's one thing I feel that Halo Fanon is extremely lacking in, it's our collective lack of effort when it comes to putting in thoughtful feedback for each other's work. Now I'm not pointing any fingers here, because we're all guilty of this, myself included. But that's not the point. The point is that there will be an official review board to be launched this May. Suck it up, Halo Fanon. We're putting our writing skills to use in an essential part of writing. We all need to see some extensive, professional-level reviews on our hard work, and who better to do it than the community that knows each other so well.

I've appointed as the official overseer for this project. That means if you want to sign up as a reviewer, you have to impress him. So this is how it's going to work. Any article, story, or other piece of writing on Halo Fanon is fair game for review to any member of the board. An article can have multiple reviews if we feel so inclined to do so. These reviews, after being approved by Brodie, will be placed at the bottom of the article under a list of links showing each reviewer's rating of the article. Non-members of the board may not put their reviews here. Needless to say, users are still free to say whatever they wish on the talk page, even post their own "unofficial" reviews. But seeing as none of us really do that, I very much doubt this will be a problem.

These reviews will be written in the review's blog section. They're still blogs and therefore comments by anyone will be allowed. I wrote a prototype of sorts on a review blog back in 2011 (see here), and I will create the templates needed before this project is launched. That should be all for now, so if you have any thoughts, or suggestions for naming this project, leave your comments below.
