contents The uniform Hamilton-Waterloo Problem (HWP) asks for a resolvable $(C_M, C_N)$-decomposition of $K_v$ into $α$ $C_M$-factors and $β$ $C_N$-factors. We denote a solution to the uniform Hamilton Hamilton-Waterloo problem by $\hbox{HWP}(v; M, N; α, β)$. Our research concentrates on addressing some of the remaining unresolved cases, which pose a significant challenge to generalize. We place a particular emphasis on instances where the $\gcd(M,N)=\{2, 3\}$, with a specific focus on the parameter $M=6$. We introduce modifications to some known structures, and develop new approaches to resolving these outstanding challenges in the construction of uniform $2$-factorizations. This innovative method not only extends the scope of solved cases, but also contributes to a deeper understanding of the complexity involved in solving the Hamilton-Waterloo Problem.
