Looking back at Fandom and most wikis in it, it's safe to say that it's now in complete shambles.
And boy, was I right. QUICK ANSWERS ARE BACK.more like quick AI slop lmao
Now I couldn't get an example of this crap BECAUSE that disgrace of a feature was disabled in the Undertale and Deltarune fandom wikis after this and this happened (W ADMINS, THANK YOU), but I have seen for myself that this feature still remains in unfortunately rotting wikis.
Look upon this horrific piece of trash.
(Yes, I had to use the Sonic Wiki. The only place where I found quick answers as of this post.)
Yeah as you can see this is already a big issue. First of all, who tf wants a sack of summaries in the top of the page with a chance of hallucinations? Second of all, quick answers on the old fandom wikis of undertale and deltarune were already a disaster as you know it. Sans' full name is NOT Samuel "Sans" Wingding.
Now one may say: "This isn't really that bad". But remember, this wiki believes AI CONTENT IS LOW EFFORT. And I also (somewhat) stand by that motion. We can only watch as Fandom's platform crumbles into ashes.
Edit: It has been clarified by “Link” (aka the Hylian Champion) that these quick answers from my screenshot are mostly inaccurate, false, and/or incomplete
I happened to have (unfortunately) played the Shadow the Hedgehog game, so I’m checking through the screenshot Elaborate shared right now…
The most obvious thing is that the answers are still clunky.
QA#1: Very clunky. It’s not wrong, but it doesn’t describe what Shadow did to defeat Devil Doom. It’s with Chaos Spears.
QA#3: Mobius isn’t correct. I remember that name being used a bit outside of games, but I don’t remember that being used as the world’s name in the games.
QA# 4: The description for Black Doom is terrible. It’s not describing his clothes at all. The description for Devil Doom is odd too. He has a head on his front and back, and it’s not being mentioned how those heads are. Nothing about the wings, nothing about his arms either.
I’ve thought about it a bit, and since “Mobius” was brought up…
The AI Quick Answers is pretty much repeating what happened with the “Susie” text I mentioned.
Susie is known for being rude, vulgar, and making sarcastic or brutally honest remarks. Despite her intimidating persona, she is also a talented seamstress and even creates her own outfits.
The not-bold was the original Personality text I wrote for Susie back on the fandom site. A perfect 1:1 copy of an old sentence I wrote.
The bolded text is what was added by Quick Answers. It picked up something completely wrong from somewhere else outside of the fandom wiki for Deltarune. In the case of the Sonic wiki, it’s likely that it picked up “Mobius” from multiple articles on the spin-off versions.
Which is pretty much comic versions of AUs of the games.
