This set of pages serves as a queue of selected anniversaries which populate the section of the Main Page each day. It is based on Wikipedia's "select anniversary" section. Each entry is a subpage that is then transcluded onto the {{Anniversaries}} template, which is then transcluded onto the main page.
How to access pages
[edit source]All dates are subpages listed by month and day! For example, to find the first day of the first NBITTRPG session, you can go to NBITTRPG Wiki:Selected anniversaries/January 30.
According to the wiki's timezone, today is September 27!
- 2025 Renova: The Forgotten's fifty-seventh and final session, Suspension of Disbelief, was run.
Navigational calendar
[edit source]Below, you can use the calendar to see the anniversaries for any particular day.
Formatting
[edit source]All pages are in list format regardless of how many items there are. The only exception is if there are no notable events for that day, in which a single stock sentence will suffice. Each list item should be formatted with the year in bold, then an emdash using — or {{emdash}}, and then a description of the event in passive voice.[1] Please make sure to list only one event per year. From top to bottom, the list's years should be in chronological order.
If you would like to list something that is not any of the below, we can talk and standardize a format for it! Otherwise, the priority for what gets to be in that year goes in the following heading order:
- Sessions
- Documents
- Channel creation
- Retcons
- Bits
- Lack of notable events
Sessions
[edit source]Sessions should be formatted as such, with the session number written out in letters and the name coming last:
- 2022 — Weathia: Resurrection's first session, Welcome to Weathia, was run.
Documents
[edit source]For documents and side stories, they should be written in a similar format to:
- 2024 — Renova: The Forgotten's The Nanette Gazette was released.
If the document is related to a world in general and is not directly related to a campaign, referring to the world is appropriate. If the document has no relation to a campaign or spans over several, the campaign name can be omitted and the document can just be said to have released.
Channel creation
[edit source]For days a Discord channel was created in relation to a world or campaign, just mention the world or campaign and just call it a "channel".
- 2021 — The Weathia channel was created.
Retcons
[edit source]For retcons, format them as such:
February 14 • February 15 • February 16
Bits
[edit source]For significant moments in NBITTRPG text-history (e.g. original messages that sparked ongoing jokes), you may simply post a screenshot of the interaction.
- 2022 —
Lack of notable events
[edit source]- If there are no notable events, add "Nothing of note seems to have happened on this day." to the page.
- See this page as an example.
Footer
[edit source]Be aware that there is a footer template called {{AnniversaryFooter}} you should add to the end of the page entry! If the page has no notable events, add a <br>, then add the template after. Input the day and month of the entry to the template as follows.
For June 16th, it should look like "AnniversaryFooter|Day=16|Month=June" within the braces.
- See NBITTRPG Wiki:Selected anniversaries/June 16 as an example.
References
[edit source]- ↑ The purpose of the passive voice is to put focus on the session or document, not the person who ran or released it.. —CStatic
