Hey everyone! It's been a while since I did one of these, but a lot has happened again on Fandom. I will try to give you a tl;dr summary of all the blog posts, but per usual, follow the links to Community Central to read all the details!
- Join Fandom to Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month (click for blog post)
This annual U.S. observance, from Sept. 15 to Oct. 15, celebrates the histories, cultures, and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. Here at Fandom we want to amplify the voices of our community members across the diaspora through the theme of Las Voces. Check out my more elaborate post about it here, but the tl;dr version is that Fandom is celebrating by highlighting Hispanic IPs in an awesome Interactive Map, Hispanic Fandom editors in a series of editor spotlight stories, and there will be a video at the end of the month!
- Discord AMA's
There are two upcoming AMA (Ask Me Anything) on the general Fandom Discord (click here to find out how to join the Discord).
The first one is TODAY, Wednesday September 21, at 1 PM EST (or, depending on your timezone, in 1h) with Fandom's UX Research team. Learn more about their role at Fandom and how they create experiences for editors on the platform. Click here to get the event invite that will take place in the #ask-me-anything channel.
The second one is Friday, September 23 from 12 PM EST to 2 PM EST with Becky about Search Engine Optimalization (SEO), or in other words "how can Google find my wiki better?" Click here for the event invite.
- Everything You Need to Know About the Interactive Maps Update (click for blog post)
On September 1, Interactive Maps officially opened to everyone, meaning that every editor can create and edit the Interactive Map on your wiki, which wrapped up the last of the major updates for Maps. This feature has a lot of different use cases, as highlighted in the blog, so if your community doesn't have a Map yet and you have a good idea for how to use that feature here, don't hesitate to try it out!
- Technical Updates: September 9, 2022 (click for blog post)
Every other Friday, we’ll share notable changes on the site on Community Central. This update is meant to keep the community informed of changes from our Creator Tools team that could potentially affect you and to ensure you are aware of what’s happening on the platform.
- Meet Jieyang, Fandom's new Senior Community Manager, Gaming (click for blog post)
As of September 12, Jieyang (pronounced "Jay-Young") joined Fandom's Community Experience team as a Senior Community Manager, Gaming.
- Mobile theming and Discussion AbuseFilter updates
As was announced in this blog about mobile changes and this blog about Discussion moderation tools, I just wanted to let you all know that Fandom is currently beta testing the mobile theming feature and the Discussions AbuseFilter, so stay tuned for more site-wide releases on that front later this year! If you are someone who's interested in helping Fandom learn more about how you're using your phone to edit and can give constructive feedback in a video call about the mobile editor and how to potentially improve your experience, please do reach out to me on Discord (Lostris#4280) as I may have a good opportunity for you then.
Alrighty, that was it for now, people! Per usual: if you have any questions or remarks about anything, don't hesitate to reach out to me on my wall or on Discord. Always happy to hear your thoughts. Cheers! Lady Lostris /
