Ahh… Sun’s shining in the sky, there ain’t a cloud in sight...

Summer is going strong with over 30° celsius (that’s 86° fahrenheit for my American fellows) already! The school year is drawing to a close, and everyone’s in a holiday mood. Do you guys have anything special planned for this summer? :)

Guess what, we do! In fact, we have a lot of projects waiting for release. Here’s our monthly overview about all changes in May and our upcoming plans.

Remarkable contributions

• NeoEnderman2016 worked on the Speed Builders and Shocking Strikes (Ability) pages in May! Thanks :)

• Another shoutout to Timmi6790 and Wattywatty14, who were reverting vandalism and contributing to the Clans page respectively.

• Big thank you to DCPlaysMC for improving the Gadgets page! He has been very actively editing the page for several weeks already, so the User of the Month tag is definitely well deserved!

Discussion, feedback and internal changes

In regards to last month’s vote which was held in order to decide whether Nicodami would be promoted to bureaucrat, I am pleased to announce that he will be joining me on that position! The vote was very favorable, with only one opposition and one neutral to one supporting and seven strongly supporting editors! If you are interested in checking it out, the poll is available here. This is great news as since we’re both very busy, we can share our duties and make sure the wiki keeps running smoothly for you all to enjoy!

Regarding the staff pages, a small majority (around 60%) voted to keep the pages of the current staff members. Only 40% of you were interested in removing every staff page, while moving the content to other pages. In accordance to the poll results, we’ll be archiving the articles of former staff members soon, and monitor the remaining staff pages. We’re still considering to remove them all, should we not be able to keep the rest of the staff pages updated.

We also have a small update regarding the TT project! Unfortunately, due to both of us being rather busy, it has stalled a bit recently. We had several possibilities on how to handle it, and we were unsure which one to chose, so we opened up a discussion on fandom’s community help wiki. In the end, we decided we will go with the solution we originally planned on doing, because it will be the most convenient, even though it’s not the most efficient. Fortunately, this means we already have most of it set up, we just need to test it and it should be all good to go! Nonetheless we still wanted to apologise for the delay, it was really unexpected on our end, and was also worsened by all the exams we had to go through lately! 

For our fellow translators reading this: as soon as we’re ready, we’ll notify you on the TT discord! 

Upcoming Content

This month’s featured game is the crazy Weekend Brawl! Dozens of game variations are still missing, so we’ll be trying to add them. If you’ve been playing Weekend Brawls yourself, feel free to help out. :)

If you have any other suggestions for the newsletters or you want to share other thoughts, make sure to leave a reply.
