Question about prefrences

How do you change it so it doesn't say something like Hi my name is User A (March 5,2021 7:24 UTC) How do I make it not display the time? User:Yaxops/sig 18:43, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

Just use 3 tildes, instead of 4 ex----> Squid400 (talk)

TEST: User:Yaxops/sig Okay it works. Thank you so much @Squid400 (talk)

S3 gear navbox

Now that we've identified some returning gear in s3, is it okay if I make a navbox for it? I mean, we have one for weapons, so why not gear as well? I have the thing ready and my cursor is over the save button, but I wanted to know what yall think before I click it. WoomyMcBoomy 19:40, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

In my opinion, we should wait until splatoon 3 comes out. For the time being put the Gear as a section under the Splatoon 3 navbox. However, like most things, I can't really talk about this because I am not an admin soooo. User:Yaxops/sig

Sorry, I should've been more specific on how im organizing it. Im organizing it into 3 categories; clothing, headgear, and shoes. I couldn't really organize them by rarity since we dunno if any rarities have changed, and making individual navboxes for said categories would be too small, at least in my opinion. WoomyMcBoomy 19:52, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

ya know what nvm. I agreee with you, yaxops. WoomyMcBoomy 20:11, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

Possible Minifest!

I was looking at the other minifests, and was interested in hosting one! My idea is Salmonids vs Octarians, but I would need an opinion. And a page for it, which I'll make if it gets to that point. Dynamo 12:18, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

I think that's a great idea for n inkfest! If you host I'll be the first to join!User:Yaxops/sig

Thanks for the Support @Yaxops! I'll get to working on the page now! Dynamo 13:05, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Alright, It's done! Click Here for the details! Anyone is welcome! Dynamo 14:05, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Do I add this minifest right away, or should I wait until more people join? Just curious. Dynamo 14:25, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Adding it would help get more members so PLEASE do.User:Yaxops/sig

I did it! Thanks for helping so much and voting, Yaxops! Dynamo 14:49, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Actually, I think I might be free on the 24th this month. It might be the most recent I can do, given that I also have theater classes and a vacation planned that same week... Dynamo 14:56, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

E3 Soon! Splatoon 3 news?

So I recently found out that E3 2021 will be happening soon (apparently in the form of a livestream, so watch out for that) (click here for more info), and I just wanted to talk about the possibility for more news on S3. I think that we'll probably get another trailer as well as a window for a release date if we get any info at all, but that's just speculation. What do you think they'll show for s3? WoomyMcBoomy 20:26, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Please keep discussions like this for discord. User:Yaxops/sig

I think that User:Yaxops/sig is correct. Firewave 12:22, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

Newbie needs help

Alright so I've been surfing the internet and I can't figure out how to display my stats on the side of the page. I've seen others do it and it's annoying how I can't figure it out. Anyone can help me? TheBeast (talk) 12:52, 16 April 2021 (UTC)

@TheBeast Try viewing the source of some pages(don't copy them though). Also a lot of useful information can befound in the Ink pump archives here User:Yaxops/sig2

Splatoon Island

Should the fake splatoon island thing be in rumors and leaks busted catagory? Firewave 00:18, 18 April 2021 (UTC)

No, it shouldn’t. It was a 2019 April Fools joke, as pointed out at the end of it’s quote-unquote “trailer” and upload date. So it is considered fandom and non-canon. P.J. GT (talk) 00:35, 18 April 2021 (UTC)

OK. Firewave 01:41, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

Minigames?

So I'm new to inkipedia (so you probably dont know me) and I'd like to propose we do minigames. I actually have some ideas like Roller Reem, where you are only allowed to use rollers and brushes; Hide and seek, hiders are alpha team and they use chargers and the seekers are the bravo team who use any kind of blaster (clash blaster, luna blaster, etc). So maybe people could fit the minigames into Inkfests or something so people could use like half an hour to rolling over others. Please consider the idea. 𝕋𝕙𝕖𝔹𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕥 (talk) 17:52, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

@TheBeast We already have Inkfests, which can be just competitive Private Battles or custom splatfests. dedf1sh07[talk] 18:06, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

You can also add your Minigame ideas in the Blog:Fan modes. (At least i think you can) ChessMaster [TALK] 18:13, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

Thanks! I'll check it out ChessMaster! 𝕋𝕙𝕖𝔹𝕖𝕒𝕤𝕥 (talk) 22:52, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

New community page idea

As many of you know, the Splatoon series contains a BEAKFUL of lore (pun intended), and with the recent reveal of Splatoon 3, speculation and theories are all up for debate. Because of this, I wanted to make a page dedicated to all of these theories that people have come up with. I imagine it to be like ink pump, but for discussing theories and lore instead of how the wiki should function and who's hosting what. I imagine that it would be called something along the lines of "Ink theories and specs-ulation". Please, tell me what you all think! WoomyMcBoomy 16:10, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

I like it! I watch a lot of Splatoon theories (Mainly the Game Theory one and Lockstin & Gnoggin), but there are still a lot of other ones out there. However, we should confirm on the page it may be on that they are all theories and not confirmed to be canon (Some of them, anyway). Dynamo 16:59, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, we'll have to make a template for that. WoomyMcBoomy 17:00, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

Making a "Lore" category would be honestly really good to cover since we really only have lore bits in Trivia sections. However, making and discussing Theories should be in the Discord since the Wiki has one. Making a page seems kinda unnecessary. If you really want to you can make it.Timewip2020 (talk) 17:15, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

Actually, mentioning trivia, we could also add some bits of trivia that could count as theories from other pages (Ex. Mr. Grizz being Tartar and the whole "Save Our Salmons" thing) and could possibly add that to the lore page. Dynamo 17:23, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

@Timewip2020 The whole lore section thing you mentioned is actually a pretty good idea! You should work on that! But for the theory page, I kinda also wanted to make it for people who dont have discord or anything like that. Plus, it could also prevent false information from finding its way on to other pages. Anyways, here's the template I was talking about! This is just a prototype, though.

That's just a theory!

This article discusses theories and speculation that are not apart of Splatoon's lore or gameplay.
Information found here is likely untrue, and should not be added to other articles or sections until proven otherwise.

WoomyMcBoomy 17:46, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

Oh! I like the title! It's catchy and memorable, and fun to say. Dynamo 17:40, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

Thank you! Before I make this template a thing and create the theory page, I wanna get the OK from an admin or someone with high status, since it's likely that false info will POUR into this thing. WoomyMcBoomy 18:02, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

Same, I think the Lore page would be a good page to make. I want to get confirmed by an admin before I make the main lore page. Timewip2020 (talk) 18:23, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

@Timewip2020 So I talked to Shahar about it, and they said that it's probably not the best idea, since it might draw away work from the wiki, as well as spread false rumors. My page is a bust. I'll ask about the lore page, and I'll get back to you later with the feedback. WoomyMcBoomy 15:00, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Well, the lore is already confirmed in the sunken scrolls, and other areas as well, as mentioned (Again) in several bits of trivia. I think that the lore page would still be a good idea, even though it's not exactly my place to give the go-ahead. Dynamo 10:31, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

I think I would just like to make a page around lore in certain aspects. Like "Stage lore" could be one section or "Salmon Run lore". I think we can keep trivia but I want to make it more organized than random trivia areas. Timewip2020 (talk) 18:11, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

@Timewip2020 I get what you're saying, but wouldn't it be more convenient if it were all in one page? And about the sunken scrolls, the page for them doesn't really discuss the lore of the game. It just kind of states that they exist, and give some description and role. It doesn't discuss the lore whatsoever. But back to my original point, I think it'd be more convenient if it were all apart of one page. I'm not trying to diss you or sound disrespectful or anything of the sort, that's just my opinion. WoomyMcBoomy 20:01, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

I just think that making it one big main lore page into sub-lore pages would be nice. Kinda like how the Octo Expansion has the basic things and then there are sub-pages about the 80 levels. Timewip2020 (talk) 16:56, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Wikicode for demo games and special event games

So yknow how we have abbreviated wiki code for splatoon and splatoon 2, so we don't have to type the whole name out? and all we have to do is just put S? I think that we should have that kinda stuff for demo games and special events, like SGT for Splatoon Global Testfire. Makes sense to me, at least. Please, tell me what you think about this idea. WoomyMcBoomy 19:53, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

Those templates were created as a shorthand for commonly used links. Splatoon has more than 1500 pages linking to it, whereas Splatoon Global Testfire has less than 50 pages linking to it, so Splatoon Global Testfire is just not a common link.

Why not link to it normally? Just type ''[[Splatoon Global Testfire]]''. Heddy (talk) 05:02, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

Creative Page

Can we have a creative page where like you make a avatar for your account? I think that would be fun :)

Cookie 1 2 3 (talk) 11:24, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

People who want to make an avatar have other sites to it. It wouldn't be very productive to have a creator page when people already use other websites and such to do so. Dynamo 12:12, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Seems like a cool idea, but has the same problem that the theory page idea does; it draws away work from the actual wiki. And as Dynamo said, there are other sites that people can make avatars on. I'm not trying to be rude when I'm saying this, by the way. I'm just stating my opinion. WoomyMcBoomy 12:58, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Sorry @User:Cookie 1 2 3 but I think you should just use these websites for avatars, For Inkling:http://mebuika.kenkenpa.net/ikamaker.html For Octoling:https://mebuika.kenkenpa.net/takomakertest.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yaxops (talk • contribs) 18:19, 19 February, 2021

Octod2

So there is a OCTOD2 and a OCTOd2, both with the exact same switch username, level, coins, super sea snails, octo canyon stats, octo expansion stats, and rank. I think I heard somewhere that 2 accounts is against the rules, or otherwise I think that one may be impersonating the other. Firewave 20:23, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

@Firewave OCTOd2 said that they forgot the password for their old account, so they had to make a new one. Having multiple accounts doesn't necessarily violate Inkipedia's policy. See the multiple accounts policy for details. dedf1sh07[talk] 20:39, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Buuuuut, they dont have 2, they have 3 or 4 Squid400 (talk) 21:01, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

Same thing with those accounts, too. dedf1sh07[talk] 21:25, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

I already left a message on their talk page to inform them of the policy. They said they made the new account due to forgetting the password to the old one. Heddy (talk) 23:22, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

Manmenmi?

I don't know if I'm the only person who hasn't had this on Splatoon 2 yet, but I opened up the game and there's a bunch of inklings with the haircut hairstyle with blue eyes, white ink and the basic gear. Who, or what, is manmenmi? When I looked it up, all it said was that is was japanese for booyah. somebody, please help. Dynamo

@User:Dynamo; They might be someone who played Private Battle before making the post. They might have used Chicken or Tasty White for it. P.J. GT (talk) 14:05, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

@User:P.J. GT thanks, that actually explains a lot. Dynamo 10:08, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

Need help with translations...

Where can you translate French NOA? I'm trying to finish the to do on House Party Station an I don't know where to translate it because I don't speak it and I don't know anyone who does speak it or any translators that do. User:Yaxops/sig2

@Yaxops Just leave a maintenance template such as {{todo|Add French translation}}, and eventually a French speaker will add a translation. You should not attempt to do this yourself. Heddy (talk) 00:57, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Okay thank you. User:Yaxops/sig2

New page idea

So... I´m not sure if this subject merits a new page but here's a suggestion for a new page: You know those boxies that appear sometimes when you follow a link from a news page, or download Octo Expansion? The ones that appear in Inkopolis? The ones Bridgett loves? I looked and I couldn't find any reference to them on the Inkipedia. Do you think we need anything on this? I´m honestly not sure.

--redpanda0310 (talk) 16:31, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

IDK. My opinion is pretty mixed. I think it would be helpful but also its kinda self-explanatory. However it you make it right it could work. User:Yaxops/sig2

Yeah, tbh idke.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Redpanda0310 (talk • contribs)

I don't think there is more than a sentence or two to write about that. So it would be better to add info to an existing article instead of making a new article. Heddy (talk) 00:59, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Expandible Table

So I tried inserting an expandible table with the other titles below the title (I don't know what to call them, it's in Weapon), but when I expand the table, there's a white gap above "Clothing" and "Shoes". Is there a way to fix this? dedf1sh07[talk] 19:33, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

Can you copy the code to your sandbox so we can see what issue you are talking about? Heddy (talk) 02:00, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

I made the page. User:Dedf1sh07/Sandbox I've seen this issue in a lot of user pages and I've been wanting to fix them, but I don't know what the problem is, or how to fix it. dedf1sh07[talk] 02:25, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

@Dedf1sh07 The white space on the "List of Pure Gear" line is caused by the colspan you have specified on that line. Change it to colspan="4". Heddy (talk) 00:51, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Thank you! This was bugging me so much, so I appreciate the help! dedf1sh07[talk] 02:24, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

This page isn't working for me

So I was combing over pages, and I found a few things that I thought were off with the hare vs tortoise page (such as the trivia section being right in the middle of the page). When I tried to edit it, though, the editing page was unresponsive. I continued to wait and try again for about an hour or so (believe it or not), but no dice. May someone please try to edit it and see whether it is unresponsive for them? I'm worried that something may be wrong with the page (or my computer). Thanks! WoomyMcBoomy 21:26, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

First of all, the trivia section is in the correct space, between the Top 100 and the Quotes. Seconds of all, it's being unresponsive for me, too. I tried purging the cache, but it still wouldn't work. I think the best solution is to just wait it out for a while. dedf1sh07[talk] 21:34, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

Oops, forgot about the trivia space... sorry! There's still something I wanna fix on that page though, so I'll wait for a bit and try again later. If the page is still unresponsive in 13 hours or so, then I'll contact an administrator about it. Thanks, f1sh! WoomyMcBoomy 21:40, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

Yeah,the page is still unresponsive. I'm going to contact an admin now. WoomyMcBoomy 12:39, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

The page seems to be functioning perfectly fine, I don't see what the issue is. User:Eminence/Sig3 17:41, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

It's when you try to edit the page. When I try to edit the page, it keeps being unresponsive and the page won't load. dedf1sh07[talk] 17:47, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

When I try to edit it works fine for me. User:Yaxops/sig2

Quick question...=

Yeah so quick question; Are users like me allowed to nominate people for rights? I have a certain person in mind who I think deserves a promotion. WoomyMcBoomy 19:48, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Anybody can nominate anyone for a right, even if you nominate yourself. Just make sure you ask them if they're interested first. dedf1sh07[talk] 19:55, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Are you interested in having rights ;)? WoomyMcBoomy 19:56, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

I mean, I've made a RfR before, but since nobody voted and I was very inexperienced, I was thinking about making another maybe this summer. I would be very glad to have Patroller rights, though, and I'm fine if you nominate me. dedf1sh07[talk] 19:59, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

It's settled then! WoomyMcBoomy 20:01, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Just wondering, though. If someone makes an RfR, how long does it have to be until it's approved/declined and archived? dedf1sh07[talk] 20:03, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

I think I saw somewhere says like 2 months ChessMaster [TALK] 20:04, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

No, It's usually 4 weeks, but it can be 2 weeks if there's a general vote. WoomyMcBoomy 20:05, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

Creating a blog post

So I'm new to this wiki and was thinking about creating a blog for a inkfest. How do I make one? OctoRed (talk) 14:05, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

@OctoRed All you have to do is create this page: User:OctoRed/(INKFEST TITLE HERE) and then put your Inkfest into INK:FEST using the format. If putting the Inkfest into the Inkipedia page is to difficult, I could do it for you. dedf1sh07[talk] 16:56, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

Salmon Run for Strategy?

I feel like we should put a Salmon Run section between Countermeasures and Gear Abilities into Strategy pages because there is no information about Salmon Run on any Strategy page. Since Salmon Run has a variety of weapons, sometimes consisting of very advanced weapons, I want newcomers to have some advice in case this happens. Please tell me your opinions. dedf1sh07[talk] 18:42, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Honestly I feel like that's a good idea. I think it is worth mentioning ChessMaster [TALK] 18:49, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

I agree. I can make a test for it here User:Squid400/Salmon run strat Squid400 (talk) 18:58, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

I agree with making this page! This could also help more experienced players remember strategies they may have had or learn new ones. it could also help me, too. Dynamo 19:18, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

I put some info for Salmon Run onto the Splashdown Competitive page. dedf1sh07[talk] 19:25, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

I like that idea! Now, you may not know this about me, but I'm kinda interested in stage layout and design, so maybe we could map out routes and put the images on some salmon run stage pages? WoomyMcBoomy 19:29, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, we need to put in routing into Strategy pages. I'll notify DaDoc and SeeDeeEss about these ideas. dedf1sh07[talk] 19:36, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

I like this idea! I also think we should have Competitive pages for Stages & Modes. Like; strategies for Tower Control on Moray Towers, and what are the best routes to push the Rainmaker on each Stage. I'm also on board with Salmon Run strat pages. They could be for Boss Salmonids, Known Occurrences, Tide Levels and Weapon roles. Just giving out my opinions and ideas! P.J. GT (talk) 22:16, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Good idea! Firewave 02:25, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

I forgot to mention about Stage Call-Out names could be added to that Stage’s Competitive page. P.J. GT (talk) 13:14, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Change?

Did editing change for anybody? The way I can edit changed. Now there's edit and edit source. Im confused ChessMaster [TALK] 00:18, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

VisualEditor and DiscussionTools were added to the wiki. This should make it easier to use talk pages. Notice the [ reply ] button! Heddy (talk) 00:45, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

I like it! It makes editing pages a lot easier now! dedf1sh07[talk] 00:47, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Eh. Not what I'm used to. But I'll get over it. WoomyMcBoomy 10:53, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, disregard that last comment, I really don't like this new editing. WoomyMcBoomy 11:05, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, I’m a little confused too. What exactly is visual editing? Awildmusk(Hablo español?) 15:31, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

I believe visual editing is when you click "Edit" instead of "Edit Source". I'm not sure, though. dedf1sh07[talk] 15:33, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Ya, whats the difference between edit and edit source? Squid400 (talk) 15:36, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure it's like pressing the edit tab on the top of a page. WoomyMcBoomy 16:37, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

"Edit Source" is basically the same thing as "Edit" before the update, while "Edit" is, well, it's hard to explain but it's like a newer style of editing if you prefer it. dedf1sh07[talk] 16:42, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

If you don't like the new way of editing, you can always click on edit source. It allows you to edit the old fashioned way :) ChessMaster [TALK] 16:49, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

In short, "edit source" is the same thing as it always was, as I'm sure you've noticed, while the new standard "edit", the visual editor, allows you to edit a page while immediately being able to see what it would look like on the page without wikicode. I personally still like the classic style, but visual editor is very nice to have too. GloverMist (talk) 17:59, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Just to let you guys know, this is my second account for my phone. I will link to it as soon as I get my computer. DynamoTheSecond (talk) 18:43, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

What is this second account going to be used for? Unless you have a very good reason for making a second account, it will most likely be banned. Thanks! User:Eminence/Sig3 19:39, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

You should NOT use one account for a computer and a separate one for your phone. You should choose one account and use it everywhere. I left a message on your talk page suggesting that you recover your password. Heddy (talk) 22:08, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

uploading the file Octo girl (talk) 11:34, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

Oh yeah! You should scroll up. At the top of the page (any page) you'll see an area of the left side of your screen. Scroll down just a little to see the whole thing. Once you see the [tool] bar look at the section in it. Its the third one from the top! In case you can't find it here is a link. Upload. Make sure you have the image as a file! If you didn't or you don't know how just go to the mebuika and right-click the image. (or use two fingers and hold if your on a mobile device) Once you do that you will see a bar that says save to device. Go ahead and head to the upload page and do choose file!

New Page Idea

So I was thinking and I thought of a new page idea. A page about the Ink Refill Items in Octo Expansion. It could be like the other Mechanics pages but about the Ink Refill. I think it could be useful but I want some opinions about it. I wouldn't want to create a page that is useless. :) ChessMaster [TALK] 02:04, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

But won't that page have like a page size of 1,000 bytes or something? I feel like it would be really small, but I guess we could try it. dedf1sh07[talk] 02:11, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure about the page size. I'll try a draft and see how it looks. ChessMaster [TALK] 02:14, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Does it have an official name (whatever in-game characters call it, if they ever talk about it)? The ink tank refills are specific to Octo Expansion, so I suggest adding it to the Octo Expansion article. Use the format of the Equipment section of the Octo Canyon article. If you believe you can write enough to create an article dedicated to the ink refill item, then go ahead, but I recommend adding to the Octo Expansion article first. It might also be worth mentioning In the ink tank article, and station articles where the refills are present, if not already mentioned in these articles. Heddy (talk) 04:59, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

It's already mentioned in the Ink Tank article, and it's called the "Ink Refill" item, according to that page. Still, I think we should use it as a conjecture. dedf1sh07[talk] 05:53, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Alright so I'm working on the page. It'll be a draft in my userpage. I just need a picture of an Ink Refill item. If anyone can find one, it would be awesome! ChessMaster [TALK] 14:20, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

test page

I think we should have a page for testing templates and talk about ideas for new templates so people who are new to editing and can get good ideas on how to use different templates --Octo girl (talk) 13:58, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

This may be a good idea. although i think ideas like this have been rejected before Squid400 (talk) 15:25, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

We have clear instructions on how to use templates in their respective places, and if new editors have trouble using them they can ask their questions here in the Ink Pump. I do think that this may be an okay idea, but we have other sources to use for help. Dynamo 20:25, 10 May 2021 (UTC)

Idea for main page

So I was thinkin' that we should add on Inkipedia:Inkfest widget to the main page but I wanted to know you guys opinions on it. User:Yaxops/sig2

We should probably keep it in community for now.Fancy Squid (talk) 14:41, 12 May 2021 (UTC)

I agree. The main page is mainly for stuff that is about Splatoon itself, and not the things that us Inkipedia users do in it. Dynamo 20:04, 12 May 2021 (UTC)
