Twelfth Annual Halo Fanon Wikia Awards 2019
December 1st, 2019 — December 31st, 2019

Welcome one and all to the Twelfth Annual Halo Fanon Wikia Awards for 2019. We are honoured by your attendance to this annual community awards ceremony and celebration, the twelfth and certainly not the last of its kind. This project is coordinated by the Halo Fanon Wiki Administration, and would not be possible without the hard work of our community this year.

We look forward to your participation in this community-wide celebration, and hope that you will all participate! Now, read the regulations, nominate your favourite articles, and vote!


Regulations

  1. Nominations begin at around 12:00 AM midnight UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) on December 1st, 2019 and voting begins at the same time on December 15th. It will conclude promptly around 12:00 AM midnight UTC on December 31st, 2019! Any exceptions to this are listed below. Final winners will be announced and receive their awards on January 1st, 2020!
  2. Voting Qualifications: Users eligible to nominate and vote must have been users for at least four weeks and have sixty or more mainspace edits in order to vote. Because of the style of this ceremony, sockpuppets and sock masters are not invited, and will be promptly banned from the Wiki and barred from future voting. Newer users who spam edits just to gain the required amount to participate will also be barred from voting.
  3. Nominations:
    1. You may only nominate articles for a category so long as it expressly fits the definition of each category. Nominations that are not eligible for a category will be deleted or moved to the appropriate category by the administration. You may request a clarification about the definition of any category from Brodie-001. You may not nominate an article for more than one category, with the exception of Best Canon Expansion and Best Concept. Articles that are not eligible for nomination will be removed without any notice if they are found to have "content issues" ("Unrealistic", "Non-Canon Friendly", etc.)
    2. You may nominate an unlimited number of articles written by any number of other authors for any number of categories. However, you are restricted to nominating only one of your articles for only one category for the whole ceremony. This is to promote professional sportsmanship. For categories pertaining to users ("Best Writer of the Year", "Breakthrough User of the Year"), you may not nominate yourself.
    3. "Recycled" articles will not be accepted into the nomination process. An article that has received minor or no edits for the duration of the year is not eligible for the event. Every article's edit history will be checked when nominated, and will remain valid for nomination only if it has received moderate to major changes/improvements throughout the year.
    4. You must nominate articles according to the proper format (listed below). Fill out all the fields when submitting a nomination, and post the completed nomination form underneath the category that you're nominating the article in question for.
    5. Perceived breaches of good conduct and professional sportsmanship will be prosecuted by the administration to maintain the dignity of this voting system.
    6. The author of an article reserves the right to withdraw his or her own article from a nomination at any time, with or without given reasons. However, if a user has nominated an article that is not their own, they may not withdraw it.
    7. Eligible categories are decided in advance by the administration. If you have a suggestion for the addition or removal of a category, please discuss it with one of the administrators.
    8. Winning articles of the previous annual awards be nominated only if it's been improved upon drastically after receiving a previous award, for a maximum of three awards in separate years. This applies only to the articles, not the authors of the articles, who may only win the Best Writer or Breakthrough User award once. This does not mean that the article can only win three awards; for example, if an article can be nominated for the Best Canon Expansion category, along with its own category, and wins in the top three awards of the year, and does so for three separate years, the article in question can theoretically win nine awards in total (this is, however, highly unlikely).
  4. You may always contest in a category even if you won an article in that same category before with a different article.
  5. Voting:
    1. Eligible users may vote for a maximum of two articles in a given category. You may vote for only one of your own articles for the entire ceremony, no matter how many articles you have in how many categories. You may not vote for yourself under a user category.
    2. Please sign your vote with a non-bubble text signature to verify your identity.
    3. You do not have to vote for an article you nominated.
    4. The process has two stages: nomination and voting. Users may nominate articles for the Annual Awards from December 1st, 2019 to December 15th, 2019, in order to fill out the categories with prospective AA winners. Then, from the 15th to the 30th, voting will take place across all categories.
    5. Winners of the Heroic, Legendary and Mythic Articles of the year will be decided between December 30th, 2019, and January 1st, 2020.
    6. Any categories with ties by 12:00 AM UTC on December 30th, 2019 (24 hours before the end of the vote) will be remitted from public voting and will enter private administrative ballot to decide ties. The results of the ballot will be announced afterwards. All administrators with a registered email will have twenty-four hours to decide ties.
  6. Winning:
    1. The article for the most votes in a given category will be formally acknowledged as the winner for the category, and the article and its author will be commended by an official award granted by the administration approximately by January 1st, 2020 and the end of the ceremony. Category-winning articles will be eligible for winning the Heroic, Legendary or Mythic Article of the Year awards once voting is over.
    2. In the event of a tie, a tiebreaker will be performed, and the winner will be decided by private administrative ballot. The ballot's content will be disclosed at the end of the ceremony.
    3. If an article is the only nomination in its category and receives fewer than three votes, it will be combined with another similar category after the voting process to avoid "winning by default", and votes will be counted accordingly.
    4. Only one article may win each award in the placement category from 2018 onwards. In the event of a tie at this stage, a private ballot will be held by the Administration to determine the winner. This has been done due to several years of two or more articles winning a major award due to ties.
  7. Questions: Please address Brodie-001 if you have any questions whatsoever.

Characters

Annual Award Best Spartan Best SPARTAN of the Year

Samuel-B256 (TPF) (ThePeteFiles)

Voting (3)
  1. Beta Gang put out a lot this year, but Pete's written an interesting character in Sam, and then rewrote him into an interesting character again. Absolute madman. BetaCompanyBestCompany.User:Spartan-D042 - Of monsters and men 19:48, December 15, 2019 (UTC)
  2. Despite Alpha Gang obviously being the superior company, I have to credit Pete for his tenacity on Sam. Rewriting a character is not something easily done, yet Pete has done it with little flaw, which is something I can only be envious of. Oriana is yet another great Spartan written by this man, but despite my Alpha loyalties she seems more like a runner-up in terms of Pete's Spartans compared to Sam. I think Samuel's gone really far this year, and still has quite the journey ahead of him. UnggoyZealot
  3. ~ LHF [Talk] [Father] [Mother] [Warrior] [Stranger]

Cody-B042 (Spartan-D042)

Voting (2)
  1. It's a tough call between Cody and Samuel. One of the coolest things about this site's community is seeing characters and concepts come into their own as community institutions. That's on display for a lot of articles this cycle, but Cody is definitely a standout when it comes to characters becoming household--or at least Discord--names. Actene: Heaven and Earth
  2. I don’t have much to say (was never great at reviewing), so I guess I’ll just leave it at “BetaCompanyBestCompany.” KOY-1150-5 - (Talk) - * KingOfYou115 throws a book at <insert name here>.

Annual Award Best Sangheili Character Best Sangheili Character of the Year

Felo 'Ranak (Brodie-001)

Voting (2)
  1. I'm kind of surprised Felo was nominated so late this year. Then again, I expected him to be a contender at last year's awards as well. Felo is a strong character and embodies the traditional values of a Sangheili, having fought through the betrayals of both his brothers but emerging victorious. It's secured my vote. UnggoyZealot
  2. I'll echo UZ's surprise and take it a step further by saying I'm surprised this didn't already have an award. One of Brodie's foundational characters, one of the strongest contenders for best Sangheili in recent memory. Actene: Heaven and Earth

  1. A late entry that I bullied Silver to release for like, months, Epimetheus is just one of his incredible pieces, but the in depth profiles on the Spartans, the mountain of art he made for it, and the story told by the piece are just fantastic. I love the FORECON page, but this had to get my vote.User:Spartan-D042 - Of monsters and men 19:48, December 15, 2019 (UTC)

RP:Imperium (Brodie-001)

Voting (1)
  1. Looks like Imperium could be the two-timer RP. It's "Drastically" expanded over the course of the year for sure, and is still the biggest site collaboration (Excluding SOTF, if you want to debate) I've seen during my tenure here. Add to the complex plot and the diverse set of characters it contains, and it claims my vote once more. UnggoyZealot

Stories

Annual Award Best Novel Best Novel of the Year

Halo: Heaven and Earth (Actene)

Voting (4)
  1. Was there ever any doubt? Even if my characters are either being misnamed or shoved into the fridge literally, Actene's latest novel is yet another masterwork. He may think we're all only following along to see what becomes of our own precious characters, but in my case at least, I'd be reading it even if the cast wasn't an ensemble of some of the site's most beloved characters.User:Spartan-D042 - Of monsters and men 19:48, December 15, 2019 (UTC)
  2. ThePeteFiles (talk) 21:48, December 15, 2019 (UTC)
  3. Following Actene's venerable cast in yet another compelling story, this time a much bigger bundle, Heaven and Earth draws the reader in like Halo: Reach's original progression system. I eagerly await every new chapter, and can successfully realize my support for this with my vote. UnggoyZealot
  4. Actene said Andra could harass his protagonists and vice versa. I see this as an Avengers-level threat so we should all support this story. Also its a really fun ride. Actene did not buy my vote...? Distant Tide: Hunter - Killer

ThePeteFiles

Voting (3)
  1. Pete's been the real deal this year. He's been pumping out work like nothing's to it, which is something only my younger self can relate with. He's done quite a few collaborations with fellow users during his time here, and he's tenacious. Three times the charm for Samuel-B256 on GA, and his other Spartans provide a great deal of interest as well. While Silver's definitely an awesome writer, I find it that his main contributions (At least from my perspective) are short stories and anthologies, which are a bit unorthodox compared to the writing of usual articles. I haven't had the time to explore much of Manatee's work aside from Bodark-B076 unfortunately, so I'll have to cast in my vote for Pete. You did well, man. UnggoyZealot
