On the Main Page the featured article is "Scrapyard" I have no clue why that was left off on such a boring article, any recommendations to permanently replace it?

Hello everyone! This is PrinceJamie36 and I’m now an administrator in this wiki thanks to RRabbit42 for requesting. Also, thanks to JonathanFrink checking on me.

I have no fear of you, I’m here to help. I started contribution in late November after I returned home from Thailand. It’s very hot in Thailand, but it’s pretty fun travel. Many vandalisms are going on, so I have undone from a vandal and made a report so far. Well because I'm the most active user in this wiki. Have a question? Feel free to leave a message on our wall and don't be afraid. I might be busy on another wiki or something else (such as gaming and outside activities), but I’m always active and here to help. Again, don't be afraid.

HIGHLIGHT

• Mobile Theming

1. Meaning

2. How Does it Work?

3. Preview

4. Enable

I'm happy to announce that mobile theming has arrived for wiki communities to opt-in to!

Meaning

You may be asking yourself, what does this mean? This means that the styling and colors that's in use in Theme Designer will not only be applied to desktop, but also on mobile! That includes:

• Community background color

• Sticky nav background color

• Community header color

• Accent color

• Link color

• Article background color

• Background image (when selected)

• Heading font

How Does It Work? (Learn why color contrast is essential here)

A prompt to check Special:ThemeDesigner for wiki contrast issues will be received by admins of the community. If there are no longer any contrast issues, admins are able to enable mobile theming on the community. If these issues aren't fixed, theming changes won't be possible.

Preview

Want to see how the changes will look before you apply them? Theme Designer will show a mobile preview to verify the community's look.

Enable

Want mobile theming enabled? Here's what you can do to get started!

• If you're an admin, head over to Special:ThemeDesigner.

• If you're a non-admin, reach out to the admins in your community to inquire about enabling the mobile theming.

• If you're a non-admin and there's none active in the community, reach out your Wiki Representative if one is assigned to the community. To check who your Wiki Representative is, go to Special:Community, which is accessible through the explore menu. If a Wiki Representative is not assigned to your community, reach out to Fandom Staff via Special:Support for your inquiry.
