New Wiki Manager: Welcome
Hi there; welcome to the Wiki, and welcome as our new Wiki Manager. I've remained in contact with our previous WM Unai (ah, apparently [[w:c:community:User:Owlnai|Owinai now) since the unfortunate COVID-19 WM reshuffling; now that you're on board, of course, I'm glad to make your acquaintance as well.

Cheers for the UCP mention. We were migrated to UCP on August 20, and I submitted a UCP-related ticket (#973822) on September 13 pertaining to OGG-Vorbis audio file players not working when embedded in collapsed(-by-default) content. That issue still hasn't been fixed, since it's still affecting our NDS Game article and its ending index (Ending No.3); it's not especially major, all things considered, but I do hope it's resolved at some point. Unai assisted with several of the immediate issues caused by the migration, but I imagine there may be others still to be ironed out (I have to double-check one regarding embedded images); well, I'll reach out if the need arises.

(Hm, well, there's the ImageServing issue with article thumbnails being incorrect. That one's widespread/well-known, though. Right now our Trending article thumbnails seem correct, but if I switch to the new category layout for, say, Category:Characters, some of the thumbnails for articles with gallery tabs in their infoboxes have secondary images for thumbnails right now (e.g. Lua Klein). Eh, maybe they're still working the kinks out.)

Actually, as a side note, the Wiki Manager module in Special:Community still isn't displaying you as our WM. I know S:C was only very recently ported to the UCP, so there may be bugs - not to mention that the WM module is newly native, it wasn't native to S:C before - but I can't be sure if this is a bug or if I'm just underestimating how long it should take for the module to register your existence.

I do wish we had been given an idea of the class selectors that changed with the UCP migration. The class selector changes 'broke' our image background immediately, for instance. So far, most of the changes with class selectors are being discovered on the fly, it seems.

In any case, thanks for coming on board. I was beginning to wonder if we'd ever have a Wiki Manager again. I asked this of Unai, so I may as well pose the same obligatory question: How familiar are you with Baccano!, if at all? Of course I can't expect you to be, but allow me to indulge my curiosity, at least. Hah. Obviously I absolutely recommend watching/reading it, if you haven't! Eventually, someday, one day, whenever.

I'm still attempting to finish my Master's thesis, hence the decreased wiki activity from me this year, but I'm certainly not inactive and, while my responses may be delayed (as with this one), I'm definitely reachable. Apologies for the length of this welcome message/response.

(Entirely unrelated note: I'm so glad Link Suggest is back.)
