The spelling is inconsistent, as it switches between British and American English.

It first uses the British English spelling of the word “behavior” that has a u in it.

And then it switches to the American Spelling without the u.

This causes a lot of confusion since the DevHub is always in American English.

Humanoid.AutoRotate


The CameraRelative enum has been duplicated, with the second field replacing the MovementRelative enum.

(it’d be also nice if those descriptions for the enum page weren’t blank :+1:)

CoordinateFrame (deprecated) instead of CFrame:

Uses a deprecated “Message” class:

Plus and minus symbols in left of code sample. It looks like it was copied and pasted from GitHub, which has plus and minus symbols next to code changes. Lines 21-24 and 48-51.

Markdown Typo

Right below the Description the Example header says “##Example” instead of “Example”. I’m pretty sure that there’s supposed to be a space between the ## and Example so it gets formatted correctly.

Link:
Player:Kick

Here is a typo similar to what @WinnersTakesAll said, on the BindableFunction:Invoke page:

BindableFunction:Invoke

Line 2’s Wait() is lowercase

The math.clamp function is LuaLibrary/math clamp. I know this is deprecated, please don’t hate on me.

Groups still show “Games” and not “Experiences”

I know this is deprecated, but I think that FloorWire’s page should say “Parts” or “BaseParts” instead of “bricks”. The description is also a bit confusing.

Update: They fixed it. Thanks.


A large number of release notes are skipped over

You can also see it here in Release Notes for 478

There is currently no way to access release notes 428-477 except by manually editing the URL in your browser. If you do, there are no navigation buttons along the bottom for all affected release note pages.

On the PVInstance article, I believe this sentence should be removed due to Pivots being part of PVInstance:

This class has existed since 2005, and while the class itself no longer has any functionality, it is used for adornable objects that can be connected to both BaseParts and Models.

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/function/Player/GetFriendsOnline

GetFriendsOnline returns a table of data, and unfortunately it doesn’t give you any data about what server (JobID) the player is actually in…


Experimentally, this returns the game.GameId rather than the game.JobId that they’re in :frowning:
