Yes, we need a source either way for that speed, regardless of what units we write.

The need for sources

Hi all,

Something that has been brought to my attention is the lack of referencing/sources on many articles here. Without sources referred to, we have no way of knowing whether something on the article is factual or not.

For example, on the Gup-H page, it says its top speed is 108 knots. Has this been confirmed in an Octonauts episode? I don't recall Tweak or any character mentioning how fast this gup can go, but I, as a reader, won't know for sure unless it has a source referenced on the page. Without a source, it's safe to assume facts like these are unsubstantiated and need to be removed.

To include a source on a page at the end of the sentence you are providing a source for, feel free to look at this example edit. You use <ref> SOURCE </ref> at the end of the sentence you are providing a source for and then add a new section at the end of the page called "References" with the {{Reflist}} template underneath.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks.

I do believe Vanilla Kelp Pudding is a dessert from the "Enemy Anemonies" episode (this is directed to the folks who reported this post for being off-topic).

I don't see a page for it on this wiki though... it would be nice if someone started one. :)

Operation Coordination!

Dear Octo-Wikians,

As some of you may notice, many of our episode articles are lacking detailed plot summaries / synopsis of what occurs in the episode.

Now, an example of a good, well-formatted plot summary can be seen here: https://octonauts.fandom.com/wiki/The_Octopod_Mystery#Plot_summary

I was hoping, with your help, we could emulate that on every episode page to maintain consistency and add more detail to our articles for our viewers. If any of you do watch Octonauts episodes in your spare time, maybe consider, while watching an episode, writing a plot summary as you go since that would also benefit the wiki. :)

Thanks.,

<p>Perhaps expanding our presence on social media sites like twitter would help bring in contributors and increase the popularity of this wiki. </p><p>We don't need to have an official wiki account for every social media site. Twitter would be fine for now. Are you good with this? </p>

<p>Okay, that's fine. </p><p>I'll perhaps use the gallery portals on List of characters to make it visually appealing. </p>

<p>Should we request a spotlight? That may help give more attention this wiki exists and attract more contributors to build a community. </p>
