Nominations

Carter-A259

• Article Name — Carter-A259
• Writer — CommanderTony
• Nominator — CommanderTony
• Date of Creation — April 27th, 2010
• Date of Nomination — June 9th, 2010
• Description — Commander Carter M. Christiansen is a Human senior officer of the UNSC Navy during the Great War. He was a SPARTAN-III Commando and the commanding officer of BETA-5 Alpha Company and Noble Team throughout the war, leading special warfare missions all across the Milky Way galaxy. CDR Christiansen was heavily decorated for his successful actions during the Invasion of Reach in Summer 2552, where he led a large resistance movement against the Covenant Empire occupying the once colonial military stronghold.
• Why — Though I feel like i've done a great job creating the early life and awards & decorations for NOBLE ONE and hoping this article would serve as a model for those wanting to do character and/or canon expansions, I mainly nominated this article to see how our panel judges use their new position as a member of the project.
• Status — Earned Good Article status.

Voting

1. Support —Great article with a ton of information about the early life on one of the Halo franchise's next hit characters. While not finished, nor is it closed to completion, the author has nonetheless made a expansion article seeming worthy of recognition as the canon background for Carter-A259. Template:CT Sig small
2. Support — Despite the rather... egocentric nomination above, I must concur. This article is extremely well written - definitely at least FotM status - and is most definitely a good article. Hopefully the author can complete their creation before the Annual Fan Fiction Awards. -- Sergeant Major Arnold Lewis, UNSC Naval Special Warfare Development Group^[COM]
3. Support — As per the above posts. This article is a creative expansion of a character with almost no canon backstory (so far), and while the "Childhood and family" section of the character's biography requires some stretching of the imagination, the rest of the given history is very interesting and well written. Actene: Heaven and Earth
4. Support — As per above. The article fits all the requirements, is of high writing quality, and is a very imaginitive take on the character. It has high detail and great flow. Like Johnson said, egocentric, but still excellent. //Your screams blacken my soul// //I am shadow, I am death// //I am alone in the dark, but not afraid//
5. Support — So, apparently we can nominate our own articles? Or is this the sample nomination? Bah, either way... good article, no matter how you look at it. SPARTAN-091[Bureau] ^[Talk]

M56S Battle Armor

• Article Name — M56S Battle Armor
• Writer — Spartan-091
• Nominator — Sgt.johnson
• Date of Creation — May 24, 2010
• Date of Nomination — June 08, 2010
• Description — a user-created upgrade to the prolific Halo-era Orbital Drop Shock Trooper armor kit, showcasing several upgrades that follow a logical path after the end of the Human-Covenant War.
• Why — This article deserves the honor of "Good Article" for several reasons. First, the article is excellently written, with virtually no grammatical, spelling, or punctuation mistakes to be seen. Second, it is extremely informative, showcasing the author's extensive knowledge of military body armor systems. Third, well, it's just epic!
• Status — Nomination ongoing

Voting

1. Support — As per my nomination. -- Sergeant Major Arnold Lewis, UNSC Naval Special Warfare Development Group^[COM]
2. Support — Yet another good canon expansion of the community's [second] favorite armor suit. Beautiful images, well written and detailed images, and something i'd expect to see on Halopedia if 343 Industries released [proper] encyclopedias. Template:CT Sig small
3. Support — Bah, it's my own article. Now, promise me we'll give this award to someone who is not on the committee next, please! SPARTAN-091[Bureau] ^[Talk]
4. Support — As per everyone else. Being one not too inclined towards equipment and technology articles myself, I'm just that much more impressed when someone else manages to pull off a good one. Now let's start scouring the wiki for articles by non-committee users. Actene: Heaven and Earth
5. Support — As per the above posters. The article is of good length, is highly detailed, had good grammar and spelling, makes good use of pictures, and basically does all of the neccessary things right. Lets get some non panel judge articles now. //Your screams blacken my soul// //I am shadow, I am death// //I am alone in the dark, but not afraid//

Grizzlei — You Are What You Dare TALK • CONTRIBUTIONS — Friday, April 19, 2024 Nomination closed due to the following requirements not met: UPDATE: Article candidacy requirements have finally been met.

Cassandra-075

• Article Name — Cassandra-075
• Writer — Matt-256
• Nominator — Actene
• Date of Creation — September 12, 2009
• Date of Nomination — June 09, 2010
• Description — A user-created expansion of the canon Cassandra-075, who had a cameo letter in the Conversations From the Universe booklet included in the Halo 2 Limited Edition.
• Why — The third canon-expansion article in a row, I'm afraid, but it's a very creative example of a user taking a canon character who manages to have almost no information known about her and turn it into a fleshed out article. I'll be the first to come out and state that there are a few grammar/spelling/word format problems embedded in the text which should be proofread and corrected, but the actual story that's conveyed is very creative, especially in the way it connects the character with both canon and fan-made characters. It's the first canon-expansion character I've seen to have a fleshed-out relationship with a completely fan-made article, and to me that's the best sign of the linkage between canon and fanon.
• Status — Nomination ongoing.

1. Support — As per my nomination. Actene: Heaven and Earth
2. Support — It's a reluctant support unfortunately. While I like the background for Cassie, the unfinished and sections left alone are a real downside. However, it is still a solid piece of fanon. Template:CT Sig small
3. Support — As per the others. Solid article, excellent expansion. Definitely needs to be finished, however. -- Sergeant Major Arnold Lewis, UNSC Naval Special Warfare Development Group^[COM] 04:00, June 10, 2010 (UTC)
