I added in the images as they served as a means for quicker understanding. Specifically, many had found the text confusing and cumbersome, and just wanted an easy to read equation, with the various variables highlighted in different colours. The colours chosen were preferred by myself, and those that asked for a visual equation to be created along side the revised text. I'll be glad to revisit the images so long as the colours fit in line with the rest of the wiki (as we felt they had already). In short - users of the wiki preferred a quick image to a paragraph. If the users were confused by the image, the detailed writing accompanying the image to the left clear up any confusion.

EDIT: I have updated the Super Magnet Equation image to ease reading (increase the brightness of text).

Hi! Welcome to the wiki.
The visuals were removed as the team who handle most of the wiki edits determined that they were unecessary, as they were redundant, and if something can be explained by text, it should be. Also, noting again, that the visuals colour schemes made it hard for many (colour blind and otherwise) to see them, though the changes to the supermagnet one were better. But, it harkens back to if it can be explained by text, it should be, and the formulas are code blocked for easy visual consumption already. :D (also the new update is supposedly going to be changing some of the formulas, so they may not be accurate come friday).

Also, just a note on the specie/species thing, while technically not incorrect, specie isn't used in modern English, and can be confusing and reads as a typo to most people. As well, the game refers to them as animals and breeds, not species, which is why they were worded as such. We went and double checked on the wording, so will be changing that back to animal/breeds for continuity and hopefully avoid confusing the players who come to the wiki.

If you're on the discord server for SAR, there is a wiki channel that we use to coordinate and communicate easier. You're welcome to join and give me a poke on there for the role if you so wish :D

Hope to see you continuing and hope you can join us on the discord for better communication/discussion :D —Preceding unsigned comment was added by Harlecorn (talk page • contributions). Please sign your posts with ~ !


 * Thank you for your responses. I have no want to assist in this wiki again.


 * I apologize for editing in favor of the hundreds of players that reached out to me personally.


 * I will be reverting all my changes. Please do not use my wording/images/or information in future releases.


 * I'd have been glad to join the discord wiki - but it's clear that my contributions are undesirable. I asked prior on the SAR discord to join the wiki team and was snubbed with my information about super magnets. To quote: "Dude, stop typing. The wiki doesn't need or want anything from you."


 * As someone who just finished grading a load of collegiate papers about different species, yes I can indeed confirm, 'specie' is still a commonly used term in 'modern English'. An example term of one that isn't used in modern English would be 'inflamable' 'effable' 'dane' (as in opposite of disdain).


 * Lastly as a person that belongs to the Deutan Color Blindness group of the population, I find the reasoning of "Made it hard for many (colour blind and otherwise) insensitive, and horribly ill tempered." Please don't lie when you don't prefer the contributions of someone. Just tell them, "You and your efforts are not welcomed here. Please leave."


 * Good day, and may SAR continue to flourish. —Preceding unsigned comment was added by Buttpup (talk page • contributions) . Please sign your posts with ~ !
 * Hello, I'm a contributor to this wiki. I'm sorry to hear you were treated this way (although we cannot pin point where did you read the quoted message and it's difficult to take action). Please note however that Harle's message above wasn't rude at all. Harle did try to reach out to you and communicate about the problem we saw with your contributions, you did not however want to communicate back explaining why you think your contributions made the wiki better, and instead wrote the above message.
 * Every contribution on the wiki is welcome and we certainly don't gate-keep the wiki, however there are times where some content just doesn't belong or doesn't meet the standards, you are always free to talk with others about it, nothing on the wiki is final and a lot can be improved.
