Blog:It was WAY more fun crawling round the sewers.

Greetings Quadpedia, this is the Hollow Knight here.

After one month of posting my latest blog and some weeks of inactivity, I'm back from my little break and more excited than ever to work on the Qualitipedia wikis again.

What It's All About AboutHKhr.png
During my little break I found more aspects of my life to get depressed at than Qualitipedia. Now my personal issues with these wikis such as feeling excluded from the community, the treatment of the other admins and contributors, mentions in blogs and interest tables don't affect me anymore.

I have many big plans in mind to make this new phase of both me and the community better than ever. But before that I need to clarify, reveal and address a lot of things that intervene with my calm.


 * 1) I find it funny how so many people still miss out on this one. If you didn't understand the metaphor I wrote in my Request for Comments from April, or simply never saw it, here's the most direct way of explaining it:
 * 2) *The Qualitipedia Central (or just Qualitipedia Meta), Crappy Games and Awesome Games are the only important places in the community and likely all the rest are either irrelevant to the meta or aren't even acknowledged by the staff in most cases, and I don't blame them considering how incorrigible they can be at times with the user bases, quality standards and technical advancements.
 * 3) The Sitenotice feature.
 * 4) *For users: Don't dismiss sitenotices, ever. By pressing the [ dismiss ] button in the top right of any page, the current sitenotices won't be shown to you in your account and you're essentially missing out on every important thing that happens in the community. The only way for them to show up again is if...
 * 5) *Admins/Mods: Always update MediaWiki:Sitenotice id when you edit the respective page, so the new additions can be seen by all users regardless if they dismissed the previous revision.
 * 6) Always be civil and report any misconduct and lawbreaking to the admins. Every now and then I see a qualmish variety of users who start trouble and overreact to the stupidest things for the sake of looking for attention or being a hindrance to the people here. Seriously guys, you are not funny or intelligent when you go against the masses or perceive everything with a negative light for no reason whatsoever. So please, follow the rules and do us a huge favour at the same time.
 * 7) Don't be afraid to ask for help or advice regarding any topic you have in mind, it is in fact encouraged in all scenarios. We are supposed to be a community that looks out for one another, all we need is your problem so we can later come up with a solution.
 * 8) Give a shot at joining the Qualitipedia Discord server. It's by far the best part of the community, interacting with the admin team and contributors, discussing about the wikis, wiki improvement ideas and many other topics that might catch your attention.

Future Expectations ZangyExpectationshr.png
Now onto my plans for the future of Qualitipedia and its community. Some old stuff, some new stuff, but everything in an equal status of importance to me.


 * 1) In honour of the first proposed change from the aforementioned RfC, updating the Rules & Guidelines of every Qualitipedia wiki is one of my top priorities currently, whether we'll be using a local set of rules for each of them or global rules from Qualitipedia central. Good thing everyone is allowed to share their thoughts on that plan and the staff can contribute to the draft.
 * 2) Following the second biggest change from the RfC, an updated tutorial on how to write articles and what content we look for with precision.
 * 3) And the final change, an updated Qualitipedia staff page merged with the Administrators page.
 * 4) More monthly recap blogs like the one King Dice and I wrote in May revisiting determining moments of the previous month.
 * 5) A new and possibly very controversial Request for Comments dedicated to the prohibition and deletion of [SPOILER ] pages across the wikis.
 * 6) Do my best to reunite the community one step at a time. In this case, why not start a casual Q&A in the comment section of this very blog? Questions of all sorts are welcome, I'll set the limits if a question that makes me uncomfortable pops up.
