All Inkipedians, this website has a problem. You likely know that Splatoon's online service is about to go to the great big cloud in the sky, and we have an issue. Some Splatoon only info, weapons, and gear (Like Traditional Headband, Saltspray Rig, or E-Liter 3K Scope) can't have pages made or added to, if we can't access the content itself. (To my knowledge, you need to enter the lobby to access recon and the training room.) For strategy or similar pages, unlike Octo Expansion, Return of the Mammalians, or Side Order, there is no other weapon but the Hero Shot in Octo Valley, so that isn't an available option either. This is a large problem. Even if the content is not Splatoon exclusive, things often change between games that could mess up how it would be documented, like how the wide layout of Hammerhead Bridge changed to be much more thin and hallway-like in the current Splatoon 3, and many weapons have different kits in Splatoon and generally different play styles. Many people say it's a lost cause, and it's too late because we have about under a month before Splatoon is gone, but truthfully, we really need to try our hardest possible, because the Splatoon part of this website we all seem to work so hard on, to devote even 5 minutes instead of doing other things like learning from Duolingo or tagging someone’s Inkstagram, is on borrowed time. Even if people have a Wii U and the gane to accompany it, that won't help much because they can't access most of the information, weapons stats, map info, and gear tidbits. This could render the all of our Splatoon information incomplete; forever. Obviously this is a major problem. But our month is not over yet, so let’s see what we can do! If we work hard, we might complete this!
The Player
These are the people with the game and are willing to help. They can devote even 10 minutes of their time to help our cause. These are the people who have Splatoon and what we need the most of. Actual players. If they have the game, and can play online, they can add their knowledge. If they feel unsure, they can ask one of our staff to check their information, and they'll be happy to help! We might not have a lot of players, but we have at least 20 somewhere on this wiki. I am sure. If you know a friend who has Splatoon and can play online, consider meeting up with them to play! Get them in the mix, and have fun with some friends at the same time! If you have an old Wii U in your attic, dust it off and crack it open! You might even enjoy it! For competitive strategy, you must main one of the weapons we need, and then you can add your tips, tricks, and recommendations. You have to have executed the tip or trick just to be sure it works, and you must be sure that you are decent with the weapon. Some weapon priorities could be Dual and Custom Dual Squelcher, E Liter 3K and 3K Scope, the Custom 3K and Custom 3K Scope, The Heavy Splatling Remix, N-ZAP 83, Sploosh-o-matic, Sploosh-o-matic 7, Custom Splattershot Jr., Tempered Dynamo Roller, and CoroCoro Splat Roller.
The Annalist
This is the secondary, easier role. Some people can just watch gameplay or playthroughs and create type stuff down off of that! There are many gameplay videos across multiple platforms for videos, such as YouTube, Twitch, Reddit, and Twitter! You can get some others to help, as two heads are better than one! If you are watching on YouTube or other video streaming services, be sure that what you are watching is legitimate and not modded, changed, and otherwise edited gameplay. (This doesn't include video trims, visual effects, and other harmless edits.) This role is very helpful so players who cannot interpret tips from their own gameplay (or just don’t have the game) can see someone else's. If you are a player who knows a potential annalist, (or a nerd XD) you can ask them to analyze your gameplay and then have it added to Inkipedia.
The Helper
The final, easiest role. This is for people who can't be a player, or annalist, but can use common sense and critical thinking to see problems. If they think something is missing, they can alert others through talk/discussion pages. Once the other two roles are aware, they can check to proof it, and add it. It’s best if they be tested by a player to be sure that it works, but analysts can help too.. The suggestions of course must make sense, not like telling a Hydra Splatling main to rush base or an Inkbrush to backline. And we could use a few helpers. With enough good minds, we can succeed!
Conclusion
That's the plan my cephlopals. If you can become one of these roles, or know someone who can, please help our cause. Splatoon's life is running short, and it doesn't seem like Nintendo is moving the deadline. If we all work diligently as Octarians do, we could have this whole thing done in 2 weeks. So, please help. That's all. Stay Fresh!
