Talk:Broadcast

Broadcast VS Announcer?
Hello, Announcer (created in 2022) is role that has a very similar definition to Broadcast (created in 2024). Thus we added Brodcast as an other form to Announcer.

Though we wanted to point out that: - either the Broadcast page needs to be fully edited as a redirect to Announcer if it is a role and a synonym, - or the Broadcast page must be edited to include further details regarding its definition, to explain how it is different from Announcer if it is not a role or a synonym.

Indeed, the page is not formatted properly as if it was unfinished, and therefore its meaning can be interpreted in many ways (is it a system role? is it a structure? is it an ability? is it a headspace modifier?...). Thank you. Oceanic-Lanterns (talk) 12:30, 23 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Faedom had to leave Pluralpedia (AFAIK - I'm not a mod), so we probably won't get a definite answer on the differences between the two terms.
 * However, to me, it seems like broadcast is a structure/function/utility (think of it like a bunch of speakers around an amusement park), while an announcer is an individual sysmate who announces things themself (think of it like one person holding a loudspeaker) or uses the broadcast function (think of it as them being the voice that comes out of the amusement park's speakers).
 * I'm not the creator of either terms though, so this is only how I interpret what's written on the page. It is labelled as a system function and verb, though.

 * Yeah, Faedom was banned from Pluralpedia and they tended to add terms without checking for synonyms. (In part as they were using the wiki as their diary, as stating on their user page.) (also not a mod, but was there when they were banned)
 * If I remember correctly, there was talk regarding broadcast in the Discord server, with some members wanting to re-word or re-work the page. The Werewolf Pack (talk) 20:45, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Has any talk of re-wording it happened recently, or has anyone started trying? We're not in the Discord and don't really have any plans to be, but I woke up today with a few ideas on how to expand upon/"re-coin" the term in a way that may apply to more systems, and if no one's taking any action already, then I would love to try.
