Just looking at some of the pages on the mobile version of the app searching for different keywords and for some reason Lionel Messi popped up even though I was searching for something else entirely. Can the mods please take it down and see who posted it as a troll thanks

Hellooo! It's somehow March already, and lots has happened lately - let me share an overview with you folks about the latest developments:

February's Community Culture

Fandom has started a new Community Culture blog series - a monthly post highlighting diverse people, programming, and entertainment aiming to introduce you to new people, communities, and their topics. Keep an eye out for these posts each month and, in the meantime, check out February's post focusing on Black History Month (BHM) and its 2024 theme, Art for Change.

Technical Updates: February 9 and February 23

Check out our last Technical Updates blogs which cover known issues, bug fixes, and experiments. Picking out two important ones:

• CodeMirror - We updated the CodeMirror extension for the 2010 editor (responsible for syntax highlighting). We reverted the first update after community feedback, and we're currently fixing the noted issues. Once we're done, the next upgrade will happen in smaller batches for a more controlled release

• Extra protection - In the coming weeks, wikis directed at children (an option given to a user when founding a new wiki or defined as such by Fandom staff) will require accounts to be emailconfirmed in order to edit. The goal is to increase the protection of our younger userbase against spambots and other malicious actors. You can confirm your email via Special:Preferences. If you have any concerns about this, please let me know!

Reorganizing the VisualEditor

We released a minor design update to the VisualEditor, both the Visual Mode and the Source Mode (aka 2017 editor) on February 8. This is with the goal of making your editing experience more accessible and intuitive.

Read the blog about reorganising the Visual Editor

QuickAnswers update

We're continuing work on QuickAnswers improvements - here are some of the latest developments:

• Vetting period - mod teams will have a select time period to edit new Quick Answers before they go live on the wiki.

• Filters - The QA Dashboard filters have a counter that will auto-update as the QAs are processed to give mods a better overview.

If you have any concerns or questions about this upcoming feature, please let me know!

Fandom's First Transparency Report

Fandom published their first ever transparency report, showing the measures we're taking to keep users safe on the platform. Covering our Trust & Safety actions for the 2023 calendar year, this comes with data that you wouldn't usually see, including everything from the number of JavaScript submissions we reject, to the number of wikis we close.

I'm a History student and a fan of the series!

Hellooo!

Today, Fandom released an update to their VisualEditor, to both the Visual Mode and the Source Mode (aka, '2017 editor'). This is to make your editing experience more accessible and intuitive!

To not miss out on any information, check out this blog and/or the updated help page.

If you're pressed for time, don't worry, I have the key points handy! To summarise, we:

• Renamed some of the tools (e.g. "paragraph" is now "normal text")

• Shuffled some icons around (e.g. the back and forward arrow buttons are now located on the far left rather than the middle)

• Hid some less-essential tools from view to make the initial editor view less overwhelming in all its glory (the tools are still accessible in dropdown menus)

• For the 2017 source mode: we removed the options available from the menu icon (those three stacked horizontal bars) -- If you want those back, you can customize your toolbar to access them from there)

• For the 2017 source mode: we used the menu icon to replace the gear icon

Are you more of a visual person? Check out the design mocks detailing the changes below:

Any questions or comments, give me a shout below or send me a message elsewhere. Thanks all!

How did lagertha know she was pregnant to klaf baby did she take pregnancey text.

I searched for it but one thing i dont understand is, when Floki traveled to this new land it looks fresh and good for farming and such. But when he returns with the settlers it looks so different. Is it the same land or what is going on?

Hey folks!

We've been celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month (HHM) from September 15 to October 15. This has focused on Hispanic creators in Entertainment that often go unnoticed, such as those behind the scenes including directors, writers, special effects artists, makeup artists - and more!

Read Fandom's Hispanic Heritage Month blog

Fandom is highlighting these people through our Makers Series. We want to hear their stories of how they got into the industry and how're they helping to shape their field.

Check out the first blog in the HHM Makers Series by Fearless Diva!

YOU can help!

• Create blogs or Discussions posts on your wikis, highlighting those creators and their influence on the fandom

• Edit articles about Hispanic creators and make sure they're up to date - you may learn something new too!

• Finally - music! Celebrate HHM by listening to music by Hispanic artists.

Check out Fandom's Hispanic Heritage Month Spotify playlist

Spotlighting HHM and other celebrations is important for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). It's about everyone being treated fairly and with respect. Without raising awareness, we may take the contributions people make for granted without realizing the challenges many go through. We can all get involved and make a difference!

Check out our other recent DEI blogs and what you can do to help:

• My experiences with Disability for Disability Pride Month

• The importance of DEI in the entertainment industry

• Fandom's Pride Month celebrations

Technical updates - September 22

Next up, here are a couple of key things from our most recent Technical updates I wanted to draw your attention to!

• Thanks extension - this has been tested for some time on some communities and we've made several styling improvements. Eventually, it'll become a toggle on the Admin dashboard. Until then, if you're an admin on a community with a Wiki Rep assigned and you'd like to have this enabled, feel free to reach out to them or otherwise contact staff

• Reported notifications - this feature allows post reports to appear in notifications under the bell icon. We've rolled this out to 25% of wikis and reviewing the results and feedback from this. Will keep you posted!

If you have any questions on these, feel free to comment below! Plenty more updates in the main tech update blog too.

Quick Answers

Fandom's been contuining development of Quick Answers and I have a new update on this!

For those of you who don't know what Quick Answers is - it's a module that appears on wiki pages that formats information into questions and answers. This information is relevant to the wiki page it's featured on and only displays for logged out users.

The key takeaway from this latest update is that admins and mods will soon be able to edit the questions and content for Quick Answers. This will be hopefully happen around end of the October (though this could change).

Im just wondering if someone will make a timeline of Vikings Valhalla cuz vikings already have one.

Since Rollo is the great-great-great grandfather of William the conqueror that means someone in Ragnars family ends up conquering England.

S'il vous plaît, consultez ma page Eirik Fàlki

Bonjour, Vikings est une bonne série avec d'excellentes scènes de combat mais les morts de Bjorn et Gunnhild sont trop déplorables. Vikings Valhalla a moins de qualité mais est tout aussi intéressant aussi, pourquoi ne pas faire une série sur le père de Leif, Erik le rouge. J'ai chez moi un scénario pour une première saison mouvementée de ce projet.

Hi, I just started watching 'Vikings' and I'm obsessed

I'm Xander, 16 and Genderfluid/Pan

Pronouns: He/Him - They/Them

Believe it or not I can sing in Old Norse, so yeah..

Bjorn, Floki and Rollo are my top faves.
