Tell us what you liked about it, where we could improve, and what you learned
How you can help
Play the game all the way through. Do you get stuck anywhere? Is anything unclear?
Finish the game if you only played a few missions: Give some attention to missions 5-7 (which have been tested much less)
Start over fresh with a new account: Like User:OcaasiTWA17 (these are legitimate alternate testing accounts and are not considered sockpuppets)
Try a different browser: If you used Safari, try Firefox (or Chrome, Internet Explorer, Opera...)
Show the game to a friend or family member to see how they like it and if they get stuck anywhere
In your feedback, please include any of your thoughts on
text instructions within the game
graphic placement
bugs in the tour mechanics
your web browser
your screen resolution
which step of the tour you were on if something didn't work (see the step= in the url)
what you liked
what you didn't like
what you think would work better
your thoughts on the design: the theme, the guide, the characters, the colors, the images, the sounds
known bugs
Lingering Dialog Boxes: If you leave the tour without finishing, the guider dialog boxes will follow you until you [x] out of them (this is a Guided Tours issue generally and there's no easy fix) Example (phab:T122891)
Vector Only: If you're using monobook or modern etc., the layout won't work. Almost all new editors will be using Vector, so this is a known, acceptable trade-off (phab:T122891)
Mobile and Tablet Formatting Fails: While tested for most modern desktop and laptop browsers, the game is not configured to work properly on tablets and other smaller devices. It may, but we'd be getting lucky. (phab:T122892)
Doesn't scale to my preference of window size or scale symmetrically (ctrl 0/-/+). FF 25. (@start) (T122893)
There's no way to jump ahead if you are repeating steps or trying to get back to where you left off mid-mission. (phab:T122895)
The guided tour for edit summary dialog sometimes appears in weird places or isn't clickable for the VisualEditor version of the adventure (T368226)
It is intentional that Mission 7 operates on a separate copy of the Earth article from the other missions, but of course it should have created that copy. Somehow the JavaScript that makes automatic edits failed to work properly for you and I have no idea why. * Pppery *it has begun...16:28, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Enhancement request: full sig to enable auto-archiving
Could you please add a standard signature to WA discussions added to user talk pages? The current nameless timestamp appears insufficient for archiving bots (Cluebot, at least) to see the sections placed on a User talk page and archive them, so they stay there forever. I noticed this when setting up archiving for Augnablik (talk·contribs), and the oldest discussions on the page are three 'Welcome to The Wikipedia Adventure!' messages, but they were not archived by Cluebot, due, presumably to the nameless signature, or perhaps because the signature was not in last position in the message, or both. (I added {{unsig}} to three requests, so they may be archived by the time you read this, within the constraints of minthreads=4.) For the purposes of this request, I don't think it matters if the sig contains the user's id, or a fake one (User:Example1, etc.). Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 23:58, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
