This definitely needs a screen, as I was able to understand what this thing was only because I remember Unreal quite good.

::Indeed. If some background info on the inner workings (AI, flocking behaviour, things like that) helps explain a creature's behaviour it could deserve a quick mention, probably at the very end, but right now the article mentions the Bloblet is an alien and immediately starts talking about "actors" and "parents" which don't mean anything to the casual player/reader who wants to know about the game world.

the unreal wiki hasn't been updated at all in like a year, Mychaeel was the main maintainer of it and he's basically gone now as far as I know. It doesnt have any info on UE3 at all. I think it's all right to have that there, it is actually less technical than unreal wiki would be. [[User:Tahngarthor|Tahngarthor]] 20:45, 6 January 2008 (EST)

Using <nowiki>[[Unreal:Title]]</nowiki> is the correct way to link to the Unreal Wiki.  That is the default interwiki prefix that ships with MediaWiki.  There is also <nowiki>[[uadmin:Title]]</nowiki> for linking to the Unreal Admin wiki.  We're currently working on making some changes to the Unreal Wiki so it will be more useful in the future. --[[User:Haarg|Haarg]] 22:16, 6 January 2008 (EST)
