The Real World Discussion Thread

i'd expect something more than Class 10 to be honest, the largest sauropods are up to about 80 tonnes (or 100-120 counting Maraapunisaurus and "Bruhathkayosaurus")
Lifting strength is how much force, not weight you can lift as defined on-site. Sauropods often are too slow to produce a lot of force, so I'd need to look up if they can get back up from falling over first for this to apply
 
^There's more articles in the categories to cite from and make VSBW Real World entries/profiles/articles/pages about though, so that's why I linked these initially
With regard to natural/cosmic phenomena








For other big and small stuff:


 
I'm not saying we add the Wikipedia categories to VSBW, just make profiles/articles/pages in VSBW based on (via citing from) the Wikipedia articles of the stuff within the Wikipedia categories, that's what I meant by expanding the database + adding more entries.
Missing the point. I already knew and addressed this. Not to mention, why didn't you immediately say or recite it was to reduce clutter from your initial replies? I don't remember everything.

😐
I thought the proposal was already made in the other thread for reference welp


but again, not sure how many people (mostly regarding Real World contributors who were not involved in the other thread) have read through it and/or are comfortable with it.

Personally, I like how we already have the verse page set up when it comes to animals and such. I mean, do you really think the average person is gonna know what an Archaea or a Chordata is? You're more likely to find people who know what a fish or a bird is.

What about longer sections that can take up the entire screen at once for the average user, like the mammals section for example? We could have a bit of a tabber section prevent clutter and it would be easy for people to navigate even with scientific names. For scientific names, we go for the more public ones that are more likely to be understood by regular people

yeah I'm not sure if we should stick to making individual entries/profiles/articles/pages OR grouping them together and giving the groups their own entries/profiles/articles/pages OR using tabs to group them together within the Real World verse page itself for all the Real World verses entries and content sections, but I agree with the approach for naming.

Like I said, I prefer what we already got. We got cnidarians? Boom, Cnidarian section. We got mollusks? Boom! Mollusk section. Everything we got now is the easiest to understand it could be; any changes are just going to complicate things.
