Done. I am not sure how to delete a category page, so I effectively hid the Species category page from view. I added a redirect, so if I wasn't successful in hiding it and someone does manage to find it, they will just be redirected to the Lifeforms category. I changed the way the site sees the Lifeforms page so that it says Non-Sentient Lifeforms, although I wasn't able to change the category name or URL. I also updated the main page of the wiki to remove the link to Species.

Those categories were created by another user before me, and I just left them alone. I agree that the Species and Lifeforms categories are redundant, and that one should be eliminated. I don't think it matters which one. The Sentients category should stay separate, even though there will be lots of overlap (Taylor doesn't describe many non-sentient lifeforms).

Another alternative is to delete Species and then retitle Lifeforms as "Non-sentient Lifeforms". We would need to un-tag several pages that are currently in that category. Then there wouldn't be overlap between that category and the Sentients category.

No, they haven't left the galaxy. All the Bobs except Icarus and Daedalus are still in the Orion Arm of the Milky Way (which Taylor calls the Orion Spur). Ick and Dae have traveled partway around the center of the galaxy through the wormhole network, which circles the Sag A* black hole in a kind of ring formation. The Pan-Galactic Federation left the galaxy, as Ick and Dae discover, and my guess is that future Bobiverse novels will have the Bobs leave the galaxy in order to avoid its eventual destruction, after rounding up all the sentients in the quadrant of the galaxy that was unconquered by the Federation.

@JacobTheAxolotl, no need to apologize. I don't know where one would go to see the names of the admins of this wiki, so I'm not sure how people would figure out who has admin rights. That's why I posted here.

@SpaceSalvage I'm glad to help.

I'm not sure which pages have the Stub warnings you saw, but they can easily be deleted by any user by clicking Edit on the page, putting your cursor at the top of the content, and backspacing until the "stub template" gets deleted.
I've removed the "Latest Activity" section from the main page, since as you pointed out, it wasn't populating with anything. Instead, visitors to the wiki can use the Community dropdown at the top of this page and select Recently Changed Pages to see the latest edits.
I've created the Raptors page so that you can add the content to it that you were wanting to add. You can create your own pages, too -- just search for a page, and if there is no page with that name, you'll see a prompt at the top of the search results that says "Create the page XXX on this wiki". Before you create a page, please make sure that the page doesn't already exist, that the spelling is correct, and that it's a singular form (raptor, not raptors).

If you're looking for something to do and you have free time and a passion for the Bobiverse, you could go to the Minor Characters Page and start adding individual articles for any of the names on that page that you think deserve their own entry in the wiki.

Thanks for the suggestion! That's what I did. About a month after posting this, I was granted admin rights. I added a lot of pages, and I had the name changed from "The We Are Legion (We Are Bob) Wiki." Now I'm just in standby mode if anyone needs anything from an admin. I'm starting to see some edits trickle in, and it's gratifying to know that people are consuming the content and participating as contributors.

Great work, everyone! There’s still quite a ways to go, so if anyone wants to come back and continue the contributions, a lot of people would benefit. For example I just saw someone on reddit looking for chapter summaries: https://www.reddit.com/r/bobiverse/s/UkH1jf83L3

Here to add my two cents

I like the start everyone has made and I'm hoping I can add a bit of content to work toward bringing the wiki up to date.

I agree with the suggestions to change the name of the wiki to The Bobiverse, to match the URL.

I would also like to do something about the dropdowns under Wiki Content, and the Light Theme colors that make the title and main menus disappear into the background.

It seems like the theme and menus are only editable by an admin. I'm not sure who the admins are, but I'm considering asking for admin rights.
