Page Notifications

**Page Notifications** are an easy and accessible way for new and old users frequenting the site to quickly understand an important thing about the page they are reading. Information that should be, or otherwise cant be conveyed, within the page. There are two different type of notifications, In universe and out of universe, one is used more for the purposes of the story of the article (e.g. a page that has undergoing research going on about it) or something about the article itself, like a disclaimer (e.g. an either disturbing or otherwise extremely dangerous cognitive hazard.). There are a variety of purposes for both, and they will usually have a disclaimer at the top of the notification saying, or not saying, **OOU**: (Out of Universe). Appropriate usage of these is important to not give readers the wrong impression or idea on how an article will go, think of them less of a disclaimer but more of a very concise TL;DR.

## Proper Usage

Most should be self explanatory, but for some it might not be. This section will be dedicated to explaining each notification and their usages. As more are added to the site, more will be added to this section of the site.

### Work in Progress (OUT OF UNIVERSE)

⚠ Page Notification  [OOU]

     **This page is a Work in Progress! [WIP]**
*"Now entering the Construction zone."*

Please be patient, Page Notifications is still being written / constructed. For now this message will remain until the page has been finished. This Message is Out of Universe, meaning it does not apply to the actual in universe site.

This page is under construction and some time is needed for the author(s) to continue working on the page. Pages in the universe aren't considered in-universe until they are fully finished, so this basically just means "give me time please". Its not to say that the page isn't or wont be cannon with the information already present inside, but until it is finished it wont be considered as such for the time being. This is possibly the most common page notification you will encounter on the site (mostly because I'm making most of the pages and cant work on every single one at once so push it to the sidelines...).

⚠ Ongoing Research

     **This Article is unfinished!**
Parts of this article are missing or have yet to be added. This may be due to numerous reasons, most common of which being a topic {Level, Entity, Object, et cetera} that has recently been discovered or doesn't have enough information gathered yet. Please be patient with us as we expand this article. You can even help by expanding it!

The in-universe version of the WIP. These notifications in lore are often the result of a lack of a perceived lack of knowledge about a thing or level. A notable example of such is The Hive, which is a currently unexplorable (by humans) level with only few pictures and very little information about it. Although it says "You can even help by expanding it" these pages are not meant for expanding in the slightest and they should be left the way they are. Any expansion of the page that does not leave a considerable amount of ambiguity about the page will be reverted. This is not like Work in Progress.

⚠ Page Notification [OOC]

     **This page is subject to being rewritten!**

This page in its current state will become non-cannon as it is currently — or will be in the future — rewritten. This will be a process that may take some time, and may even come in short bursts. This message will remain up until the page has been fully rewritten by the author.

The page in question is an old page that now is need of renovation, or has been deemed to not fit the criteria of the site and has been requested to be rewritten. Or the author of the page wishes to rewrite it. While it can be seen as an in-universe thing, rewrites of pages usually change information about the page in new ways the previous counterpart, making them completely different than the previous page at times.
