Hey folks, happy July!

A while ago, we announced Table Progress Tracking, a new feature that adds checkboxes to wiki tables. The testing phase is complete, and the feature is now available on all wikis if they want it!

Why progress tracking?

This feature allows you to track your personal progress, directly within wiki tables. You can track things like:

• Collectables obtained in video games

• Episodes watched in TV shows

• Merchandise collected

• Whatever else you can think of!

This helps you keep tabs on what you've already done, and plan for what's next. This is a great for a wiki as users may revisit your content as they progress through a game or TV series for example. Users need to log in to use this feature, and it's a good way to encourage new users to stay on the wiki longer!

How it works

Please read the Help page for all the details on using this feature. You can also view an example at the bottom of this post to see if it's your kind of thing.

If you want Table Progress Tracking on this wiki or another wiki, definitely talk about it with local admins and see what's possible!

Any questions?

If you have any questions, comments, or feedback - please let me know! We also have a #progress-tracking channel in Fandom Discord, to discuss the feature and ask questions.

Hello all,

As May draws to a close, this past year has had many ups and downs for many of us. I am happy to support the many people that make up this community, although it's easy for me to forget about my own mental health. As a full disclosure, I'm writing this post as a heads up that I'll be taking a temporary hiatus for the next couple of months. I will be active on other wikis, but I've devoted much of my time here. For me to take care of myself, I need to take a break to clear my head and give myself more diverse activities to do in order to relax change up styles.

Admins such as @Gallibon the Destroyer and @Project Predacon will be available for questions and assistance; if you have larger staff inquiries, use the "Ask the Staff" channel to tag your posts with them, or message staff on their walls if you have a question.

Take care everyone and have a great summer!

Hello everyone!

Happy February, we're a couple of weeks away from Valentine's Day. And as a labor of love, we in the staff have gotten to work on better wiki styling. In an effort to consolidate the multiple pages on rules and regulations, we've finally put together a more streamlined, succinct, and readable version of Gojipedia policies into the original page for your reference: https://godzilla.fandom.com/wiki/Gojipedia:Policy

These rules also expand on pre-existing ones, like use of swears, necroposting, and fanart, and bringing them to the forefront so editors and viewers now have reminders on the rules they need to be mindful of and why. Blocking guidelines have also been updated in response to questions about blocks and block lengths, with the procedure on block repeal now outlined for convenience:

https://godzilla.fandom.com/wiki/Gojipedia:Blocking

These updated rules take effect today, but there's more--we're opening up moderator applications! To allow more users the chance to help out, edit requirements for discussion moderators have been brought down to 50+, enough to give you experience and ensure better chance to request. Check out our guidelines in the link below:

https://godzilla.fandom.com/wiki/Gojipedia:Staff

That's it for now, hope these new rules will be super helpful to you all and feel free to leave questions and feedback in the comments below. As a closing note, in the spirit of the month, we encourage you to spread the love - share what makes you passionate about the franchise every day, on wiki, other places, and the friends you've made through the series that started it all.

Have a great week, everyone!

Hey folks! Back in November, we announced that Fandom will be upgrading to MediaWiki 1.43 in 2025. You may now have seen a scary notice pop up saying the migration is happening soon!

Please do read the blog above, but I'm here to give you a TL;DR of what to expect over the next few months.

What changes you can expect

As with all MediaWiki upgrades, these often bring performance and security improvements, as well as new features. We will update the Help page with a list of changes in the coming weeks.

The key areas here are:

• This will not change the design of wikis

• Most of the changes will happen under the hood, so you won't notice many visual changes

Timeline

Our current plans have this wiki to migrate in March. However, this is subject to change, so could be earlier or later. View Antonio's blog for a full breakdown of our migration timeline.

Note: During the upgrade, the wiki will go into read-only mode for around 30 minutes (potentially longer for larger wikis).

Report issues

If you have any bug reports, issues, or feedback, please contact me via Discord, message wall, or reply in this thread. The Fandom Discord server also has a dedicated #mediawiki-upgrade channel where you can request help too!

Further information

Read more in depth about the upgrade:

• Fandom's MediaWiki 1.43 upgrade blog

• Fandom's Help page for the MediaWiki 1.43 upgrade

That's about it folks! I'll keep you updated as and when I have new information. If anyone has any questions, concerns, or feedback, please do reach out to me. Thanks!

Hey everyone!

We made it to 2025! The previous year was a big one for the franchise's 70th anniversary - we had not one, but two major releases for the MonsterVerse as we were granted Monarch: Legacy of Monsters and the big-picture team-up Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire. But that was not all: we celebrated as, for the first time ever, Godzilla claimed his very first Oscar slay at the Academy Awards with Godzilla Minus One! It has been a big year for the series, and with 2025, the hype anticipation will only keep on going for exciting news of what's next!

For us, let us take some time to look back on some achievements the wiki has made this year.

2024 Highlights

• We have 3,127 articles and 30,415 images

• We've made strides to our inter-community presence with the partnership with Kaiju United and launch of our BlueSky account

• 448K total pageviews since December 5, plus 413K total wiki pageviews, and 35K discussion pageviews

• The migration of Gamera-related content to our sister wiki, Gamera Wiki

• The release of proper staff requirements and rights process

• Update of the Special:Community page

• A revamping of Discussions to cover topic-appropriate categories and inclusion of more positive conversation topics

2025 and Beyond

2025 is undoubtedly going to be a big year of events, with new comics and crossovers coming out to keep us on our toes! Here on the wiki, let's make it an exciting one and use this as a chance to grow and evolve with fresh new ideas.

But bright ideas come from input. We in the staff can't make all the decisions, but you all can provide what we can work on. We want to hear what you all would like to see - any thing that can be changed, added or improved - to make this community into an even better state. Even some goals you think would be things to pursue, like ways to help boost editing, we'd like to hear!

In the comments below, please share your thoughts. Your feedback is important, and with it, we'll see what we can do for you all.

Here's to a happy 2025!

Hey folks! As we're heading into the Holiday season, we've been hard at work on giving our global navigation a makeover!

What's changing?

Long time users may remember the global navigation used to appear at the top of pages. This is now returning! The following are moving to the top bar:

• Profile and notifications

• The search function (now a search bar)

• The "Start a Wiki" button

The left navigation is remaining too, with some Fandom-centric buttons being replaced with more wiki-centric ones:

• Explore - highlights other wikis and news around Fandom

• FanCentral - links off to FanCentral

• Current - pages other users like you also viewed, as well as popular pages on the wiki

• Recent - pages you've visited recently

• History - a longer list of pages you've visited recently

Why are we making this change?

This is based on user feedback, experiments and data, which will hopefully help the user experience and keep users around on this wiki longer!

Timeline

All being well, we're aiming to launch on these dates (subject to change if blockers arise):

• December 11: for everyone outside the United States of America

• December 12: full release to everyone

This is available to test right now! Head over to Fandom Stars Wiki to try out the new navigation.

Feedback

Please read Lostris' blog on the new nav for more information

If you have any feedback, please either comment on that blog, comment in this thread, or contact me on Discord.

Thanks all!

Hey folks - Happy Halloween! I've got an update that should help users feel safer on the platform during the spooky season and beyond! 👻

We're making some changes involving email confirmation and anonymous editing. Please read Brandon’s blog for a full breakdown, but areas I want to draw your attention to are:

• Email confirmation - wikis where anon editing is disabled (including this wiki), editors will now need to confirm their email addresses before they can edit or comment on wikis. This is another user safety measure to act as a roadblock for bad actors, and we’ve already been doing this for some time on wikis aimed at children

• Anonymous editing - While anon editing is seen as a gateway to editing, it also carries risks of extra vandalism. To help with this, we are disabling anon editing on brand new wikis (already live) and disabling anon editing on wikis with inactive admins/mods (aiming for this week)

Please do read the blog for more information and rationale. As always, as your Community Manager, if you have questions or feedback - please let me know!

Recently, Godzilla was actually deemed a police for once! In Tokyo, the big G walked around the streets, here to protect civilians and this was in an event to promote traffic safety. Something similar happened a few years back when Goji was the tourism ambassador of Shinjuku. It’s always really cool to see Godzilla in government events like these.

We’re temporarily reverting to the old system of reporting problems. This means that if there is a problem on the board, ping the mods and admins and hope someone responds (don’t spam the board). If you need to, go to their message walls or Discord and do so. Just DON’T ping Linden right now and if you want my attention, ping me on Discord. That’s all for now though, don’t get into trouble and try to treat each other respectfully.

I can't believe it!!! Godzilla: Minus One has finally made the list for the nominations for the 96th Academy Awards. After Godzilla vs. Kong didn't make the list, I'm so excited that this film will have a nomination for Best Visual Effects!! Do you think it'll win an Oscar? Leave your thoughts below.
