Need to be gone through, added as citations where applicable, any stuff in them that's not already mentioned in the article added.

Anything else we think needs to be addressed? Plot section shortened, and hyperbole removed. We might want to do a bit more reference cleanup but it looks more or less okay to me at this point
-As mentioned below, the Powers section is perhaps not useful and the Synopsis needs to have less spoilers. Liberivore ( talk) 12:53, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
-neither of the cites support the following sentence, unless I can't read well: "Worm is currently being edited, and McCrae plans to produce both an eBook version and a physical book via traditional publishing.[10][5]"

Does anyone have any suggestions for which categories this should be in? "Comics" feels inappropriate to me, but I'm not sure.-- MugaSofer ( talk) 22:13, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
Plot, powers and synospsis sections are too long, hold too much irrelevant detail and are full of spoilers. I'd be in favour of axing the powers section completely and removing spoilers from the synopsis section. Liberivore ( talk) 12:47, 7 February 2017 (UTC)
Nearly all Wikipedia articles for books, movies, etc. that are complete have plot sections that describe the plot of the entirety and are chock full of spoilers. While I would be in favor of shortening the section, removing spoilers isn't the way to go.

Amongst the edits made to day, there have been two different changes to the word count that claim to be "exact". I have restored the old approximate wordcount that has a source. This is better than using hand-calculated wordcounts, since it will never depend on individual editors' definition of what a "word" is, or other such minutiae. Besides, a hyper-exact wordcount doesn't matter, it's the comparison that matters. I don't have any problem with a more exact wordcount that comes with a source for that wordcount, but please don't add your own original research calculations. 64.105.98.115 ( talk) 21:57, 18 October 2017 (UTC)
Is this really notable enough to merit a wikipedia article? It's pretty far off the mainstream radar, no matter how much of a shill piece the article is written as. If the article does stay, it probably needs significant rewrites to tone down that shilling element. 136.167.97.5 ( talk) 00:52, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
The former plot summary was disjointed and leaned a bit too much towards the Odyssey summary in WP:PLCUT. I tried to focus more on what the text itself focuses on, and to expand on characters' motivations, without bloating the word count too much. The synopsis remains a WIP (it still might be missing some important details and has some janky sentences). IgnominiousIbex ( talk) 18:42, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

Hi Ferret and Yamla. In the last few edits to this page, a banned user made a change and then it has been repeatedly reverted and restored. I agree that by default changes by a sockpuppet should be removed, but I think that in this case the changes seem to be fine and can be restored. Thoughts?

As I said in the title. Citation #7 is a dead link. As of Aug 25th 2023 it leads to a domain registrar listing the website for sale. 174.166.234.174 ( talk) 07:08, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
"As of 2019, Worm is being edited, and McCrae plans to produce both an eBook version and a physical book via traditional publishing." Given that more recently (2022 or 2023) Wildbow has seemed less than optimistic I think this should be amended. If anyone has any other sources that would be great, since this was all I could find: https://www.reddit.com/r/Parahumans/comments/140tm4w/comment/jmy89zb/ Bugmaster general ( talk) 01:29, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
