In Volcanic Island’s landing page, you will have the following phrase: “create new landscape.” This is not grammatically correct, and should either be:

  • Create a new landscape
    or
  • Create new landscapes

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/resources/creator-challenge/changing-the-object-table

In “Anchor the Plank” and “Changing the Object Table” you use the word “grey:”


https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/resources/creator-challenge/adding-terrain

However, in “Adding Terrain,” you use the word “gray:”

Which is inconsistent. Pick one and use it throughout the article. I recommend using “gray” because Roblox is not based in the UK and is based in the US.

In the spaceship themed creator challenge’s main page, the word “millenia” is used.
It’s millennia, not millenia. You missed an “n.”

EDIT: Another thing because this thread won’t allow me to post anymore replies:

This is another important typo.

In “Get Off the Ground” you didn’t even get the name of the event right! You use the term “Galactic Speedway” when it’s the “Galactic Spaceway,” twice!

EDIT once more: No one has replied yet, so I can’t reply further. Adding onto this reply.

At the very bottom of “Duplicate and Design,” the words “Possible Design” look weird. The “e” looks cut-off and placed below “Possibl.”

Missing end of code block

(the InsertService docs seems to have a lot of typos)

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/function/InsertService/GetLatestAssetVersionAsync

Text somehow duplicated to the top of the HTML

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/resources/cc-winter-2019/colors-and-textures

Under “Colors and Textures” in “Take the challenge!” they refer to the item “Scrappers Backpack,” when I believe they’re trying to refer to the item “Scrapper’s Backpack.” You’re missing an apostrophe.

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/articles/Thumbnail

Minor Edit: Mention the maximum thumbnail size and recommended ratios.
That would be 1920x1080 and 16x9, respectively.

This would help any developer who’s making thumbnails.

EDIT:

Also consider mentioning the price for uploading videos. (500 Robux.)
The article could also use more pictures, such as the actual interface for uploading a thumbnail.

At the very bottom of the article, you get a sentence without a period at the end. The other steps have periods.

Typo in Release Notes 437


  • TextLabel./extBounds written instead of TextLabel.TextBounds

In “Game Passes- One-Time Purchases,” at the very bottom of the page, there is a broken link. It’s where “here” is.

Nowhere in this entire article does it ever mention that you can only invite friends to collaborate with you.

Besides the fact of that even being a thing (which is silly,) we only get this image:

Which provides some hint but is not nearly enough for the reader to deduce. It is partly obscured.

Main thing is put some text that says only friends can help edit. Thanks. :smiley:


Unrelated edit, because I can’t add another reply:

On the Devhub front page, it should say “Swordburst 2” instead of “By Swordburst 2.” All the other games follow the format of game title, and then development team.

Others for reference:

You guys are probably already working on this, but change all instances of VIP Servers to Private Servers. It’s an amazing recent change! Speaking of VIP servers, though, add more info on the article! Detailed here.

A list of every time the word VIP Servers was used:

Consider letting the viewer know about:

  1. The undo and redo buttons in the ribbon at the top of the screen, and,

  2. The redo shortcut, Ctrl + Y or + Y.

Got some fixes for all these SoundEffect pages:

CompressorSoundEffect

CompressorSoundEffect

  1. ChorusSoundEffect should be corrected to CompressorSoundEffect. (Red)
  2. The same idea is portrayed twice and is unnecessary. I suggest removing the portion in the first paragraph to retain similarity with the other SoundEffect pages which all share the message in the second paragraph. (Orange)
EqualizerSoundEffect

EqualizerSoundEffect

  1. Abnormal spacing. (Red & Orange)
  2. Broken / No class links (Blue)
All SoundEffect Pages

ChorusSoundEffect
EchoSoundEffect
FlangeSoundEffect
ReverbSoundEffect
TremoloSoundEffect
PitchShiftSoundEffect
EqualizerSoundEffect
DistortionSoundEffect
CompressorSoundEffect


There’s a large amount of unused space between the end of the class’s description text and the table of properties.

ContextActionService:SetPosition()'s description is talking about setting the text of the button???

Seems like all the images in this article are broken. :confused:

We’re aware - this was just published yesterday, but not yet announced due to the broken assets. Will be working with a web engineer to find out what’s going on.

Update: The assets are fixed and the page should be fully visible!
