ok well that makes me doubt it
why would more spawn if there was only one?
Nate is a fish, so it is easier for him to find many
The glow whale with 10,000 health is a real thing though.
and especially after they were all removed from the area
Probably sets it as a respawn point for them or something
and picked up creatures do respawn
or you just haven't noticed
i spawned a nootfish once
it only stayed one
and after i picked it up it didnt respawn
unless we can find more in an unaltered world we should assume it doesn’t spawn
@turbid ermine don’t you have a list you can look at?
I have, but it's still possible if it was added by hand.
This list is about entities generated by the game.
ah
For example, the squid isn't on the list, same as penglings.
so it is spelled penglings
Pengwings are the adults
@snow sail have you picked one up?
Yes
Who ever played just cause 3
why are you asking in here
Ah wiki chat, sorry I thought I was in general
so i went back in and i coudlnt find one
i spawned one in and picked it up and still nothing spawned
let’s assume it doesn’t spawn
what
yeah i think the spawn command sets a spawn point for them
me too
ive confirmed that they were only spawning because i spawned one in
ok lol
I
stop
Why are you continuing it?
SLS do you have the bot available atm
Yes.
Can you do the same thing you did with {{FaunaLink}}, except replacing all Flora links with {{FloraLink|FloraName}} and ignoring templates and the Flora page?
is it possible for users to add pictures from the game to the wiki?
Yes.
how do we do that?
Login required | Subnautica: Below Zero | FANDOM powered by Wikia
Speaking of that, @snow sail your pictures are great but in the future can you name the files something more intuitive when you upload them?
ok thanks tueman
what do you mean?
The name of this image is a pain in the ass to add to pages
its the pure screenshot name
yikes
So change it
i didnt really think to name it
But now you know.
ill change it from now on though
great 👍 thanks
@agile spindle Done.
thanks
Don't you love when people post random in game events in the comments of a page?
what?
Eh, nevermind.
Okay so I've reached an odd thing
All of the dialogue in the ending cutscene is actually a single file.
Including all the sounds.
Should I just edit the section to include all the dialogue in a single list segment with the file at the bottom?
sure
Okay, I'll do that.
But there's also another problem.
There is about three of the ending files and I don't know which I'm suppose to use
so compare them
choose the most accurate one
Oh and the first one without the number doesn't have the emperor dialogue packed in with it.
The other two do.
then pick one of those
The two with the emperor dialouge?
is there a file with just the emperor dialogue?
Yes.
then use the first one and separate the lines
Got it.
Is the first telepathic message from the emperor time-based or location-based?
I said the first one.
He is asking about SN
It's clearly not location based, but I don't know if it's related to the radio messages at some point.
Can't remember.
I suppose I'll put time based until proven otherwise.
It sure is time based, but maybe time based from a radio message that's what I meant.
Does anyone know about the second one?
I know the third one, I just need the second's trigger.
Is anyone not busy right now and able to test something for me?
sure
yea
If your able to, can you see if the files on the Sea Emperor Leviathan's page are the same as in game? (Voice files)
https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Sea_Emperor_Leviathan#1
ok
👍
all her voice files?
Ah, thanks for telling me!
np
I added the Sea Emperor's dialogue to the dialogue page, as well as added the Rocket Dialogue/SFX to that.
Note the Dialogue is combined with the SFX in all files I checked so there was no removing it.
I can confirm every single line of dialogue currently on that page has a file except for a single one.
That single one being one that never had dialogue added for some reason.
Someone called crabsquids "spidery things" in the comments of the crabsquid page.
that clade template looks complicated
ok what is all this template stuff you are working on?
first - what wiki?
second - for what purpose?
and third - Is there anyway I can help contribute
- Probably BZ
- What else would you use a template for
- No

templates are written in HTML and some require CSS, JS, or even Lua to set up
The Clade template bippity is referring to is from Wikipedia. I’m having trouble setting it up because it’s the first time i’ve used a lua module
i did some templates a while back on the SN wiki iirc
i think I made a "not in game" or "may not make it into the game" or something template for the BZ wiki, but then SLS's bot did this thing that removed unused templates soon after
and i think it was the same language as the navbox template things are
Not lua
oh lua... I might've used that when scripting roblox long ago but I have forgotten since then
the templates i’ve been making or adding recently are more involved than those
k
Anyone know what triggers the Alterra Contact radio message?
...
I stll need an answer to that question.
Tge one where your told the Captain's code
It's timed and it's after the sunbeam event. If you don't trigger the radio at all you never have the message.
Erm, @summer kindle, commas come before and when your listing thing.
thing, thing2, and thing3.
oxford comma is a pretty polar issue
it really doesn’t matter that much, it’s preference like british vs american spelling
But a data bank entry is what was being changed
Data bank entries are to be displayed exactly as they are in game, including any spelling errors or grammatical errors
Well someone went in and added a comma to the entry, I assume that it doesn’t appear in game like that.
Oh it was an entry. Okay that's fine.
as much as it pains me we don't mess with entries
which is why the word "vertibrate" appears several times on the wiki
reee
honestly that entry is kinda off in general
says it's not cold enough to freeze most """"""vertibrates""""""
but what is the Brinewing's prey? Vertebrate fish that it freezes solid
also weird conflation of vertebrate and warm blooded
actually it's not the entry in general it's just the bit on the end
which happens to be the only bit not taken straight from Alex's description
we don’t know its prey tho
it attacks things already
and eats things
also we apparently missed this at some point
It eats leviathans
someone changed every mention of Brinewing throughout the page
how did we miss this
double edit
vivi made the mistake of undoing rather than rollback
unless content mods can’t rollback
They can.
there you have it
Fixed.
that person was blocked after that anyway i guess no one looked at the page though
Apparently, Microsoft Edge has a reading view.
Please restart my computer for me.
Its lore size?
lore size of what?
🤔
Because the data bank entry says it's 112 metres long, but the actual creature is a bit shorter than that now because it was shrunk down at some point
but the entry was unchanged
Ah.
interesting
@edgy lagoon, there is a comment in the language file for your question earlier. //Triggered 5 days after sunbeam event, or on lostriver base
comments are not always accurate
👌
You were right, it seems to be location based only.
Starting next week the updated Discussions page will be the new default page for new users instead of the Main Page
Hmm.
im gonna say i dont like that at all
Discussions are actually dumb.
well theyre updating discussions
it looks better
but it is not fit for a landing page
The most recent posts tagged with an article will be shown underneath that article on the wiki
hrng
We have it yeah
Like 3 people use it per week
We’re going to be introducing @ mentions so you can ping other users.
kill me
Well, if you look up https://www.google.com/search?q=subnautica+wiki , the result you get is the front page specifically.
But if somebody types in the link, then yes, they will get that landing page.
unregistered users will still see the main page
apparently Discussions isn't in mediawiki
No, it is too separate.
which basically means I won't be posting in it at all
By the way, I added some old Cyclops dialogue to the trivia.
Luckily I can probably extract some of the older game version's files in case the sounds are deleted for other things.
Maybe this is a good time to bring up that idea we had for the new wiki again
Yeah, want to explain it?
where to start
idk, it's not that complicated though
Basically it'd be like a connected UWE wiki network
with a main hub with links to all of them
to each wiki for games made by UWE
NS/NS2, SN/BZ, ZoS and future games
<@&192900629797142528>
There is the whole issue of getting people to move to the new wiki but with sufficient advertising that would be less of a problem
of course there's the whole discord here which would have links to it and mention it, and we could probably get some Youtubers to let people know about the move
So we have a wiki for each game, and there is a central page linking to all of them?
yeah essentially
Company-hosted?
yes
Yeah UWE hosted
So we get to do whatever we want with it, if we know how to do it?
it's additionally good for UWE because it brings more users to their less-known games
yep
stay on topic sls
Fine.
is there a joke there that I'm missing
anyway
wiki network
UWE hosted
no FANDOM restrictions
and can advertise their other projects
Plus it'd make it easier to navigate between the SN/BZ wikis
and any future subnautica game if they make it, it's good future-proofing
I still give it my support.
(I gave it my support the previous times we brought it up, right?)
Yeah we want everyone here to support it before we bring it to Ted
Great, time to ping the others. Or maybe I will in negative eight minutes.
I pinged the others already
Or you can ping them in negative eight minutes.
sam you have to stop spamming this chat
I am subscribed to neither, so #memes-and-media .
No, I am a member of #📚wiki-discussion .
#memes-and-media
I cannot hurry any faster with spamming this.
Oh cmon why are the mods not answering
Take a guess, @frail dragon .
I got it
legend bluerose comes to the save ❤
Resume being legendary wiki keepers 
And now I know playtesters have some moderator skills.
obraxis told me he doesn't want to hear about pewdiepie vs tseries
What
some people were just talking a little bit about pewd vs tseries
Nobody is talking about that in here
scroll up a little bit
Oh wait never mind they were 8 hours ago
And already got banned
So why did you feel the need to mention it now
wait wot did they really get banned?
For multiple things other than just that
oh
i mentioned it because obraxis didn't put that in the #sn-discord-rules
and i was sleeping when they said that
so now that the frozen river plant 02 is not unique to the frozen river
can we change its name
i think its funny when you guys tell me the names arent confusing
I don't think I ever said that
I'm numpto
I will personally be annoyed
no
ok that hurts a little
wheres the brinefall
I think I was behind it there
no because the splashes are in front of you
but they look like theyre just floating there
You can see the brinefall straight ahead
@summer kindle did you see the UWE-wiki idea that dino posted yesterday?
yeah
what are your thoughts?
It's all well and good to think about, but you have to remember that we would not be the people setting it up.
You have to rely on other people for that and I'm not 100% certain they will want to.
Well UWE would actually benefit a bit from this as opposed to just hosting the wikis separately
@late island
Yeah it's part of that concept
Well that isn't the full concept though
it's wider than the ones we've seen
but there's still a lot missing vertically
oh shoot
I just posted the vertical one
omelette plant
omelettes don't have visible yolks
@agile spindle any idea why the Redwort biome section is so squashed
the others aren't doing that
combination of a squared image, bullet points, and long biome list
also lack of spawn id
try decreasing the image size parameter below 200
put it to 130 and it's fine now
wait what
now all of the tool tips that were not doing that are doing that
how did that even happen
you didn’t modify the original floratable template did you?
illuminati + omelette + dorito
stop spamming
i'm not spamming
and the others are
revert it and see if that fixes the others
the cave bush relative one is no longer doing it
but the violet beau relative and bowl plant are
what manner of witchcraft is this
nvm i get it now sry for the spam
Why does nobody know any English Grammar on the wiki lmao
young playerbase
idk though because when I was younger my grammar was fine
At least spelling-wise
And I don’t think they understand that spell check (whatever you call it) exists
Alright Lee we all know you were a 250 iq baby
Or maybe
They see other people not using grammar when talking
And think that’s cool
or maybe
they’re 8 years old
and they’re excited because you tubers play this game so they type quickly
They had to type quickly to get back to Anthomnia's video.
I'm probably the only person who uses links and such in my comments.
you aren’t
Ah, good, lmao.
iirc people would always but brackets around every word that was a page on the wiki so it'd be like
"Why don't we have a [Peeper] [Leviathan]? That would be a nice addition to [Subnautica]"
but the brackets made it into a link
and it was kinda annoying
single brackets dont link unless there's a link separated with a space inside it
oh okay
(it was just an example)
because I'm not actually sure what they did to have all those links
I just realized, I responded to a dude with information from another page when the information was also on the page we were on
I linked him to the Alien Arch Caches page while we were on the Alien Arches page.
And all you needed to do to find what he wanted was click on the "Slave Arches" tab
really makes you wonder why those pages arent combined though
Yea, why do we have two pages with the same info?
I mean I guess the Cache one details more about the Caches ontop of the arches, but still, they're the same topic.
heh
btw @fluid lagoon @stuck pawn @heady gulch @fierce imp did you guys see dino's idea? we discussed it a bit yesterday
Don't bug them
But that is the only way to get "consensus."
🤔
Thoughts?
i'm neutral about this tbh
I know tueman forgot to ping you, so here you go: @hallow basalt
if you guys think it's the right idea, then go ahead
I feel like most of the keepers would be fine with leaving
it's just
we gotta get the devs on board
it's best to make sure there's a consensus before we go to ted with it
By the way, I can't merge the Clade template to the wiki because apparently Wikipedia runs on a newer version of the engine than Fandom
I think a reason people would be hesitant about this would be that the devs might not want it
I think Wikipedia is 1.34, while we are 1.19.
Yes, https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Special:Version confirms we are 1.19.24.
Wikipedia uses 1.33.0-wmf.23 (f51b1f3), published 18:22, 28 March 2019.
thats uh
new
hey @cinder kestrel can you find a version history? around what time did they use a similar version as us?
There you go.
It was released seven years ago.
MediaWiki 1.19 was a release that contained many new features and bug fixes.
This is a summary of the major changes.
You can consult the RELEASE NOTES file for the full list of changes in this version.
It was deployed to Wikimedia wikis in February 2012, see /Deployment annou...
oh shoot
Yes.
Cladogram?
yeah
I’ll take a look in a minute
the styles css is here https://subnautica-belowzero.fandom.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Clade.css
/* Template:Pp-template*/ table.clade{ border-spacing:0; margin:0; font-size:100%; line-height:100%; border-collapse:separate; width:auto;} table.clade table.clade{ width:100%;
cause the current line color is for Wikipedia which is a white background, but black on dark blue is hard to see
I’ll probably go for orange
clade time
Why did we have blogs disabled on the BZ wiki?
Too much junk is my guess.
they're enabled on SN though
Hmm.
Yeah I'm just wondering why you disabled them in the first place
thats what prompted the question
Ah.
ok
I'm having issues working out how to get further than this
Trying to expand it further is confusing
as in same level as arrow ray or another split off?
this whole group is meant to be nested within a larger group
including the Eyeyes, Peepers and Reginald
like this?
Pretty sure you just call a new clade template for every split off
lol, well if you understand how to use it it's fine
is it some fish family tree?
are oculus and peeper on a different ''branch''?
its not done yet
ok
and it's also not official so
you got rid of the pictures?
Just to make it easier to work out
I'll add them back in now
it's easier to comprehend when it's just one line rather than a whole image link
yeah
just put |label1=Name or whatever number you need above that branch's parameter
There's a bunch more styling and other options available atm if you look at the documentation on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Clade
since we have an older version of the template I'm not sure how much of it works or if you even need it though
god these get confusing to work out
Just trying to work out where to even place these labels
put them immediately above the branch you're trying to name
that seems to be the easiest way
Yes it is, but it is difficult to tell where each branch is sometimes
never mind I got it
probably
thats cause youre placing the end markers at the same level lol
how do you change the line color?
/* Template:Pp-template*/ table.clade{ border-spacing:0; margin:0; font-size:100%; line-height:100%; border-collapse:separate; width:auto;} table.clade table.clade{ width:100%;
where's the color in that?
you gotta add it
I would assume to the first class
otherwise I think you can define the color on a per-clade basis but you'd have to define it for each leaf
let's see if this works
I added it to every section so I know if I'm just doing it the wrong way
that's the color right?
np
i dont think the css worked

guess what
I get that sometimes
if you dive in the void in creative about 3250m i think
I just download it from the article link or something
@chrome jackal this channel is for wiki discussion only
wrong channel
I see now
my laptop refuses to save certain images correctly
I don't know why

Nah mine does it sometimes too
and if they're like that they won't upload
I don't know how to get around it.
if you're getting the issue from the vignette link I just go back to the image-article link and download that
it's the same res and it usually works fine

The seamonkey nest can unlock the constructor and the seaglide.
It's not on the wiki.
SeaMonkeyNest1 => LaserCutter
SeaMonkeyNest2 => PropulsionCannon
SeaMonkeyNest3 => HighCapacityTank
SeaMonkeyNest4 => Seaglide
SeaMonkeyNest5 => Constructor
2 fragments needed.
I was told that was a bug
It's entries in the file that's for sure, maybe it's not intended but it's there.
Alright, the bot is going to check for articles still using {{Recipe}} instead of {{Recipe2}}.
I just found two.
Nothing to do while my dinner microwaves.
But Recipe and Recipe2 are different templates
Recipe is how the template is built and Recipe2 stores the individual recipes as a database
And articles should use {{Recipe2}}.
I found Chair just now while browsing the wiki.
hm ok
Note to self/whoever: https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Giveaway_Items needs conversions from {{Recipe}} to {{Recipe2}}, including updating the latter template to have the recipes.
Since we have the Fauna page ordered like the databank should the flora page do the same
There’s something called scrolling up and reading.
I say yes, tueman
Did how to change the clade template’s colour not get worked out
For some reason you can’t apply custom colours to the labels either
Oh ok I tried to use the same thing that is used to colour naxbox text
Apparently it’s just that which doesn’t work
temp solution
alternatively you can specify the background color for the entire page
from what i can tell changing the color of the lines would require some heavy module modification which i dont have the know-how to do
alternatively-alternatively I can try to add this template which is specifically made for containing the clade template
alpha peeper? ooh
Nah that doesn’t seem needed
oki
Hmmm I can use a modified tool tips template to add compact information to the clades
It wasn’t a question
sounds like youre playing with fire
You can't just make a new FaunaTable template because the tooltip literally pulls straight from each template page
actually, hm
I know
I guess you could just make a new table but you'd have to build it yourself cause using the FaunaTable template probably doesnt suit your needs
also you will have to put it as a subpage in FaunaTable because of how the JS reads tooltips
thx
@summer kindle if you want I can hook up a CladeInfo tooltip for you
Nah I deleted it because putting it in there messes with the clade template
How do you know? if you put {{CladeInfo}} in your clade obviously it'll break, you arent linking the tooltip but the whole table
That is not what I did
Then what did you try?
I mean you are linking the entire table by doing that
If you want a tooltip I can easily set it up for you
There's probably a better way to do this anyway isn't there
I suggested references earlier
but unlike on wikipedia those dont show up in the tooltip so it might be a bit awkward
I see you've already done it
yeah
i mean it's really easy to do, it just takes a few hours while it waits for approval
you can set up the tables now or when it's ready you just wont be able to link them till it gets approved
is it? lol
the way it talks about it is just a misunderstanding of how evolution works
Like how it describes the alpha peeper as developing photosensitive patches of skin and later, eyes
that would be many, many species
not the alpha peeper
and calls the Eyeye and Reginald subspecies
theyre just species right
and also insinuates that they only evolved eyes then? That seems pretty late to evolve eyes
and I also disagree with the Eyeye being included there in general
can I make the text not bold
changed it
thanks
if i were you I'd specify a maximum width cause that thing might be hard to display nicely on smaller screens or bigger clades
If you were me you wouldn't know how to do that
changed it also
What do I add to make the text itself smaller
style="width:60%; font-size:12px"
or whatever size
the width is the table width not the text
I got that
I don't know most things but I know some
albeit not much
The Alpha Ray entry has similar issues
"Playstation 4
There are currently no known techniques to use console commands in the PS4 version of Subnautica, although some may be implemented later."
i thought cheats are on ps4
no thats on the wiki
I don't know, unless you have a PS4 to test it dont change it
isnt there like a button thing like the xbox 1?
xbox doesnt have cheats either
they do
"Pressing XBOX Left Bumper + XBOX A + XBOX Right Bumper brings up an input box.
Pressing XBOX Left Bumper + XBOX Start + XBOX Right Bumper will open the Start menu and add a seventh "Developer" option, "
pretty sure they removed that
why would they :/
This isn't a discussion for the wiki chat.
The only thing to take into consideration really is removing the description on how to enable console for Xbox, as it no longer works.
@agile spindle The work on {{CoralLink}} is successfully completed.
gratzie
like in the game? yeah
I asked this earlier but should we order the Flora page like the databank does? Sea/Land/Exploitable
Well currently we don't know what plants may or may not be useful really
and where would you place things like the Lily and Glow Plants? Exploitable?
yes
just had a revelation
Bloom Plankton is biofluorescent, and not bioluminescent
I am a fool
whats the difference for us plebs that dont understand science
Basically bioluminescent things emit light by themselves
biofluorescent things absorb light and then re-emit light
so the glow plants in the dark cave are biofluorescent too
Am I mistaken or is the Bloom Plankton the only creature that got past the concept phase and was still cut?
Rock Puncher
Grab Crab also got past the concept phase
Sand Worm was just a test as far as we know
they didnt actually plan on implementing it
There's not really enough biofluorescence in the game to warrant a whole separate category
maybe it can just redirect to bioluminescence and that page can have a little section about biofluorescence
just add a small section on the bioluminescence page about
and mention it on their individual page/sections
I assume the Glow Plant is what those Chinese Potato plants are currently placeholders for
yeah
youre killin me
ok so they're actually biophosphorescent
can we get a gif of the current glow flowers?
I’m confused why people think Xbox still has commands when I have stated at least twice on the page that console commands aren’t on Xbox or ps4
Everyone always quotes the part that begins right after when I explain that it doesn’t work...
I went ahead and updated the Subnautica Console Commands page (base game) to say the Xbox console has been disabled. If anyone disagrees with this edit, feel free to reverse it.
It already says that... unless someone changed it
clearly it doesnt if he had to edit it
it isnt disabled on pc
ik
That's what I changed.
But I think saying Subnautica 1.0 refers to the PC version... well at least that’s how I interpret that
It was called 1.0 when it launched on Xbox and PS4
well good luck for people not be able to use the spawn cheat on xbox and ps4 when stuck
why would you use the spawn command if you're stuck
because i wouldnt be able to move
spawn spawns in stuff./
no just write spawn itself it will tp u anywhere in the map
no it doesnt
it does
`{{SimilarName|
"spawn Respawns the player a small distance away. Good for getting un-stuck."
where does it say that
Well I don't know what moron wrote that because I'm doing it in game and it does nothing @minor axle
@agile spindle That fact was added in 2015. That may explain it.
Actually like I said the command is spawnme not spawn
What is that image
the text was correct but the name was not
@edgy lagoon
That's from before the H2O update jesus
Y'know bip you shoulda just done your clade stuff on the SN wiki cause I already uploaded all the BZ fauna pictures to it with a few exceptions
Never even heard of the "spawnme" command
You can check.
SN wiki is so last year
lol fair enough
SN Wiki Better Wiki don't @ me.
@edgy lagoon fool
Did we ever hear back from the other wiki keepers about migrating?
nope
Not really necessary
You want to say "yes" and be done with polling around?
like dino said it's more of a question of whether they are willing to do it
than if WE are willing to, because most of us are okay with it
Yeah my point is most of our opinions here don't actually matter
Let's wait to find out how much work it will be until after Ted approves.
It wouldn't really be that much work for us
(Sorry, if he approves)
like, not an obscene amount
but for the devs, well someone would have to set it up
We should all do a big screenshare so that UWE can livestream our progress and receive lots of money and recognition.
The pathfinder got removed after ea iirc
well someone would have to set it up
Hopefully, we are not involved with most of that work, just some of it.
what
The Pathfinder tool got removed?
Isn't that the tool where you dig in the ground
Terraformer.
no
Bleeder, new rule: you have to check in game before you come to us with issues
okay?
^
Ok
because so far you're 0/2 for being right and it's very annoying
Or you ask in #subnautica-chat / #below-zero-chat .
Ok
@summer kindle over time our wiki would regain the userbase
Not really. Because the original one will still be there
Yeah but it would slowly become more outdated
not to mention it is very difficult to edit for new users
Well, if we replace all pages with signs redirecting to the new wiki, that would help.
That is, until FANDOM staff revert that.
and obviously the newer wiki would be advertised in place of it
master plan, make it so complex that nobody else can work it out
Eh, it makes sense to me.
Recipe2 ain't that bad
I guess it is for brand new people
since tabbers used to confuse me
i didnt understand it till I tried replicating it for databank2
So, we want to ask Ted about moving, if this is what we want?
Yeah Yayie was a god of CSS
Recipe2 isnt css
see
neither is recipe
I know nothing
templates are written in HTML
CSS is what causes the tabbers to look the way they are.
I thought they were written in MediaWiki.
Yayie was a god of CSS and HTML
With the exception of Clade, which is written in lua
We will miss him
I don't know. But he made a lot of the stuff that we use a lot
and he implemented tabbers

I saw him on the Hollow Knight wiki recently
Yes, still is.
yeah he comments on the SN wiki every now and then but he doesnt do much editing
I have a suggestion, if possible add a wiki section on how long it will take to complete subnautica
that depends on the player
that's
subjective
We already do: https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Subnautica
there you have it
Is it still up-to-date, though?
seems right
I ran through the game in about 10 hours so i assume a less experienced player would take 20
It has said that for over two years.
Since December 12, 2016.
20 hours even if you know where everything is?
seems like an overestimate but
i dont know who wrote that and i dont feel like testing it
let's just say it's an "upper estimate" and call it a day
I do not know where it originally came from.
looks like ChrisFo added it from another user's page or edit
unfortunately that user's account doesnt seem to exist so I'm not sure

found it, he made the general structure for the section but it seems like ChrisFo added the information
How come searching Subnautica: Below Zero on the BZ takes us to the front page but searching Subnautica on the SN wiki takes us to the game page?
Because one wiki has "Wiki" in the name of the wiki, while the other does not.
Because somebody forgot to include "Wiki" when naming it.
(Honestly, I do not know who)
smh
that was just me messing something up probably
Want me to ask to have it changed? We cannot do it, but FANDOM staff can.
its fine
Or should we just leave it because we plan on migrating?
just leave it
So, are we going to talk to Ted about migrating, or no?
Or at least, get that date set up.
Anyway, I am going outside to practice with my mace, so enjoy yourselves in the meantime.
I am back. Nothing? Oh, well.
Whoever made the Subnautica page didn't know how headers worked.
There was one right above the one you fixed SLS.
Make that two.
There was one that wasn't labled as a header for some reason.
why dont you fix them then
But, of course, it was imperative we know.
Even though https://subnautica.fandom.com/wiki/Special:RecentChanges makes us aware, I guess it is a bit related to what we were discussing.
@summer kindle noob
I thought we said either/or on American vs. non-American English.
miles
Because if we did, it is a terrible decision.
Who says metres
no one should be forced to write in a dialect they arent comfortable with
But the inconsistency is terrible.
British people are weird.
But by the looks of things with SoAwesome1227, it does matter.
if people want to waste their time "correcting" british-english thats on them
is there something mentioning this in the guidelines
no
cuz it probably should
anyone who thinks metres is a typo isn't smart enough to read the guidelines
wait uh, we know kelp forest is the technical name for the biome
but is creepvine forest the real name...? I remember seeing it somewhere but maybe I'm just making things up
well it's a forest of creepvines
how does one "deforest" a kelp forest?
You know how you can strike at kelp with a knife, eventually destroying the plant?
That is how one "deforests" a kelp forest.
It was called Creepvine Forest once on a dev site
but there was some reason that wasn't a thing actually
@edgy lagoon we are not weird

@fierce imp do you remember the name for the cove tree databank picture?
is this the dev site you are talking about, or is this fan-made? http://subnauticagame.com/
thats a dev site im pretty sure
i probably shoulda told him no
no just some random kid on the wiki
Re: the Discussions update that just went live today on Fandom - I'd like to clear up one point of confusion about that: New logged-in users have the new combined Discussions Feed as their default landing page. Everyone else sees the main page as their landing page. That means 99.9% of all your visitors continue to see the main page as their landing page, because 99% of your visitors are not logged in, and everyone who had an account before today has the main page as their default. So this update barely has an impact on what your visitors see, other than the fact that it ties the wiki and Discussions closer together, visually.
On SN, which doesn't have Discussions, today's update has no effect whatsoever.
Both wikis has discussions
Hm. I see it now, though I could have sworn a second ago it didn't. Maybe my eyes are broken today 🙄
I don’t like the idea of anyone being put on the discussions page by default
We work hard on the front page and I want people to see that
And 99.9% of visitors will see it just as they have before
Every logged-in user has a choice, so no one is forced to see the Feed when they don't want to
everyone should have it as the default
if they want to land on the discussions page instead, that’s their choice
There are already a ton of people (prior to this update) who chose not to see the main page as their default - those that go straight to Wiki Activity or Recent Changes
those are people who stay on the wiki for longer
they made that choice consciously
Our user testing and data has shown that main pages don't do a good job at getting people to stay on the wiki at all. Almost no one clicks on links on main pages, no matter how pretty and thought-out they are, except for links in the local nav, which is present everywhere on the wiki. Discussions and Feeds tend to get people to stay and jump in much, much more. That's why we chose to make that the default preference for users who first sign up. We want those people to stick around long enough to figure out the community and what they can do with it
It's a pretty harsh reality, but admins and powerusers tend to be the only ones who really care about the wiki's main page, who put a lot of effort into it and who take great pride in a really well-designed main page. Your casual user generally only uses it as a jumping-off point to what they're actually looking for, and they tend to use the local nav for that and not even click on main page modules
Plus, almost everyone lands on the wiki because they've found a specific page on Google, so they enter the wiki on an article page, not the main page
Sounds to me like the goal you have in mind is to keep people on the wiki for participation rather than to help them get info easier
Both, ideally
I can’t tell if that’s meant to be a bad thing
the primary purpose of the wiki should be giving people info on the game
i don’t like the focus being shifted away from that
Yes, and since people find their info either via Google or via the local nav, this update doesn't get in their way
I also agree with Mira on this.
I personally almost never use main pages on wikis.
And I’ve always thought our own main page was kinda messy
well i was actually working on improving it recently
i got a roadblock but was planning on getting back to it
It doesn’t seem too useful. I don’t think that this change would have any negative impact on users’ ability to find things.
Simply due to the fact that it’s easier to just use the search bar.
The only thing we ever really did with our main page was put the update videos on it
Speaking of, did we do that for the Sea Truck update?
yes
Ok
e
e
e?
e
e
you guys have to stop
i had a hard time making this one look good
for april fools you guys should give me feedback on things, it’ll be hilarious
I feel like that might be a bit overkill
hm ok
also
Peepers all in one genus or Oculus and Peeper in one with Arctic Peeper in another
actually they should probably be 3
yeah we'll go with 3
the picture does look better this way
yeah that's good
how’d you come up with these taxon names bip
i mean like magnoculi and all that
well that just means big eye
di-oculi-formes
two eyed
doesn’t every species get a species name even if it’s the only one in its family?
on Planet 4546B would you still have things like Arthropoda or would it be something else
Yeah I've already got all the species names written out
just need to add them
@frail dragon They would be something else
there I added all of the species names
Eyeyes have three because they're subspecies
did you just make up the names though?
yes
Reginald is the real star
Superfamily: Reginaldoidea
Family: Reginaldae
Genus: Reginald
Species: reginald
um ok
buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo
