Just checked the related parts youā€™ve added. Some feedback in case you are interested.

https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Missiles#Festival_Launchers

  • Not sure if worth mentioning separately but they donā€™t just produce visuals but also sound effects as well. Maybe instead of the term ā€œvisualā€ it could be replaced with ā€œaudiovisualā€. Not a major thing at all just thought for accuracyā€™s sake it is something to consider. (Note that later you mention the sound effect, though even the launch has its own sound effect though it is barely noticeable or not at all if you are zoomed out too far away.)
  • ā€œThis includes not decloaking ships and causing a damage notification.ā€ maybe adding a not before ā€œcausing a damage notificationā€ would make it clearer (or as an alternative replacing the ā€œandā€ with ā€œnorā€).

Also checked the Fitting upwell structures - EVE University Wiki page, as I can see only the large festival launcher module is there (if not let me know Iā€™ve missed something) and it seems proper.

Even with these minor details (I mention above) it is a very good work, well written and informative yet short so good job!

Iā€™m too lazy to do the rest of what I said bc the wikiā€™s editing toolbar is still down. Iā€™m soft rejoining Uni so maybe Iā€™ll harass the tech people to get on it. Havenā€™t forgotten though!

Nope, it is unavailable on tranquility.

Iā€™ve contacted support and I was informed by CCP Swift who contacted the related departments that the ones on the test server are not final and the related QA and Art teams still working on it and they might be altered in the future before they are released on the live server.

As such Iā€™ve excluded those as the videos should represent them in their final state.

Maybe your old ganker colleague Zaera Keena might sell you some for 1 bil ISK in a legit trade contract that will state they are Barium fireworks but she will assure you it is just a display glitch. :face_with_hand_over_mouth: :wink: :popcorn:

No worries, will be done when possible and you have the time and mood. It isnā€™t anything critical.

Made another pass. The layout of images can be tweaked, but I think itā€™s been a good addition to the UniWiki. If only there were a ā€˜Veteranā€™ or two who would contribute their knowledge to the wiki so new players would benefit. :wink:

Are you saying the entirety of EVE Uni alliance lacks veterans or ones which would contribute? :thinking:

Just reread it and it seems good. Good job.

The main problem is that often times people donā€™t work well together. People will often have meltdowns over interpersonal conflicts and quit for months at a time.

Itā€™s not willingness to contribute more so willing to keep your head down.

At least with the wiki you donā€™t have to interact with other people and you can skate by while refusing to talk to people. :wink:

Donā€™t wiki pages have discussions where (planned or already made) alterations are discussed and if needed where people can come up with better solutions? :thinking:

At least thatā€™s how every wiki I saw operated so should be far from not having to partake in interaction with others even if usually not that much interaction but still.

Yes! We have talk pages. Thereā€™s also a wiki channel on the E-Uni discord and a special channel for Patreon supporters.

No time right now. Btw if you want to see huge fireworks be sure to attend the annual Luminaire Snowball Fight. Hopefully it will be held this year as well. Hundreds of people shooting fireworks at each other. No firework enthusiast should miss it. :wink:


Last yearā€™s thread for reference:
