Greetings Witches and Wizards,

It’s with a heavy heart that we announce today the decision to disable Soulshard Wars. Unfortunately Soulshard Wars has been one of our lowest performing minigames, and after much deliberation we have decided that the burdens of revamping the minigame to confine to our style would outweigh the potential gained benefits.

Please refer to our upcoming January Development Blog for more information on why we made this change.

Greetings everyone!

The Scribe team is excited to release the next set of patch notes for the Potterworld Wiki! It has been a bit since the last patch notes, but this batch will be going through new pages, edits, rewrites, and team changes that have been implemented since October 31st to today, January 31st!

Hello witches and wizards!

As we start February, we are excited to announce the winner of last month's giveaway, as well as announce this month's new prompt!

In January, we had so many incredible pieces of art submitted that fit the New Year's prompt! From creative digital pieces to beautiful paintings, those in our art community showed their talent once again! And so, without further ado, the January winner is… mn614! They will receive the prize of 150 Potter Points and 100 House Points today.

Now onto the February giveaway & theme!

To reiterate, the Monthly Art Giveaway is a way for players to create any art form (MC build, render, drawing, writing, craft, etc.) while fitting a specific theme. One winner will be randomly picked at the end of the month, and will receive 150 Potter Points and 100 House Points!

This month's prompt is to create a piece representing an expression of love! Keep in mind, this isn't restricted to romantic love. There are multiple ways to express your love for someone: parental love, sibling bonds, friendships, and more!

Giveaway Guidelines:

Welcome to the Academics weekly assignment for the week of January 22nd, 2023! These weekly assignments will give our Professors the ability to showcase some of their lesson ideas here on the website. Each assignment will be posted for a week, in which everyone will be able to read about the topic and respond to the assignment prompt. This week's assignment is "Wand Lore - Wand Woods" created by Dark (DarktheDino).

DEPARTMENT & APPLICATIONS

Hello everyone!

The Community Management department wanted to update you all with some of the changes we have made within the Scribe team.

We have made the decision to combine the roles of Scribe Intern and Scribe Publisher in order to increase the efficiency, quality and overall amount of content we put out for the wiki. So, what does this mean exactly? Well, originally the role of Scribe Intern was mainly responsible for writing pages while Scribe Publishers were in charge of editing and implementing content to the actual wiki. As far as the Potterworld wiki goes, you should not notice a visual change at all. If anything, you will probably just be seeing an increase of the content and pages available.

This new role will remain being called Scribe Publisher, however, every member of the team now is responsible for both writing pages as well as implementing the content onto the wiki. Unfortunately, with these team changes, the Scribe team will be shifting from player applications to being staff-only. We are unsure if this will be a permanent change or if we will open applications back up to players in the future. However, as of right now, the Scribe team is staff-only.

Thank you so much for all the support you have given to the wiki, and we are super excited to hopefully produce more content overall because of these changes. If you have any questions or would like to inquire further about this, please reach out to the Lead Scribe (Grace#0003).
