As stated above, this was mentioned a few days ago.
I pointed this out because at the moment, the Project Trends page doesn't already mention this.

3 forum tips for experienced forumers (in no particular order):

If you are reporting a new forumer's topic to be closed, or moved to another forum, don't mention it, because then, the topic creator will think they will receive either an alert or a block.
New forumers won't immediately know the rules or terminology of the forums. I have seen this happen hundreds of times (exaggeratedly), especially when experienced forumers (I won't name any) tell new forumers that they are "necroposting", which is when someone posts on an old and resolved topic (especially in the Questions about Scratch forum), causing said topic to be moved to the front page of that forum.

Using Scratchblocks as a writing style is not blockspam, unless it is not relevant to the discussion. For example, this

ExampleScratcher1 wrote:
How do I make a smooth gliding animation?
when green flag clicked
repeat until <(my question) = [answered]>
ask [How do I make a smooth gliding animation?] and wait
end
say [Thank you!]

is not blockspam, but these

ExampleScratcher2 (first post) wrote:

when green flag clicked
move (58) steps
play sound [Stock Laughter Sound Effect HD - 1 Hour v]
forever
play sound [Stock Screaming Sound Effect HD - 1 Hour v]
switch backdrop to [internet v]
say [i broke the internet] for (2) secs
turn cw (15) degrees
go to [nearby restaurant v]
next costume
end

ExampleScratcher2 (second post) wrote:

when green flag clicked
repeat until <(out of dorito's) = [true]>
broadcast [eat dorito chip v]
end
say [IM OUT OF DORITO'S!!!!!!!!! :(]
play sound [Scream2 v] until done
forever
turn cw (120) degrees
play sound [Scream2 v]
play sound [we have no dorito's sorry v]
end

are blockspam, and must be reported.

What do you mean? This topic is really old.

what happens if someone changes their scratch username? does it affect the wiki account too or does it just stay like that?

There is no feature to allow users to change their username.

No, I mean like changing it through Contact Us for reasons like it being inappropriate.

The Wiki account would stay the same.

Eg:
Scratch username= User1
Wiki username= User1

But if the user changes theirs:
Scratch username= User2
Wiki username= User1

We usually handle requests within a few hours, though it can take up to three days if we're busy.

Im not sure if Wiki Contributors can edit the Wiki logo. Maybe contact a higher-up to see if anything could be done, but I really don’t think anyone is changing the logo because the current Logo is not new and they have kept it like that for awhile.

If that photo is from Google Photos or something similar I’m pretty sure it’s not going to be accepted for legal reasons.

There isn't really a need for a new logo; ours is fine the way it is. It's modeled after the Wikipedia logo (which the proposal drops) and includes the Scratch Cat.
