I have a question / suggestion: Can the wiki editing be more simple? The current one is kinda complicated and confusingIf you are using the source editor, then remember that there also exists a visual editor.
But, making it even more simple is just not possible.
It just takes some time to get used to it.

Speaking of, why do we have to use TinyPNG in specific to compress stuff? Why wouldn’t other compressors work for that?

I have some suggestions for the Wiki:Hello, why isn't anybody noticing my suggestions?
1. Separate article for remix trees (I know the there is already a section on remix trees on the remixes, but I think it deserves a its own article even if it is deleted)
2. Section on usercards in the article of Scratch project trends

1 is a good idea; you should put it on the CP (if you're an editor).

For 1: I'm not an editor, which why I'm suggesting it hereI don't understand #2.I have some suggestions for the Wiki:Hello, why isn't anybody noticing my suggestions?

1 is a good idea; you should put it on the CP (if you're an editor).
For 2: Usercards are project which are typically just still images with no code that has an attribute (for lack of a better term) that can describe some user (This studio has loads of them: https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/31396683/)

I'm using visual editing but some parts are a luttle confusing.

However, there isn't that much to say about Remix Trees… Pages need to have lots of information and the section about it explains it quite nicely.
I do agree with the usercards, though! I didn't know they were called that.
Why don't you apply to be an editor?

I don't know why, I just don't feel I have enough information about scratch and don't feel worthy of becoming an editor, sometimes though I want to apply just for fun and to add some small contributions.
