Wiki Missions
Hey Frosty! I know you left Discord, so just wanted to let you know that Mojo has recently made our Wiki Missions completable without Discord, in case you wanted to get an Atreides Battle Rifle key.
We even have a new reward arriving very very soon!
Sorahawk (talk) 02:31, 9 September 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you Sorahawk, I was just reading about this option on reddit. Great work on the offering the alternative to Discord ! House Erebus (talk) 03:00, 9 September 2026 (UTC)
- Hi Frosty! Also we're going to be getting a new reward soon - in recognition for your efforts I'll be granting it to you too, as all staff automatically get all rewards. You'll be able to redeem it at Mentat:Account :) Hope things are going well! FlamingMojo (talk) 06:58, 9 September 2026 (UTC)
- I also realised that you were due a battle rifle from us too! Although I'm sure it's against your Harkonnen nature to use it FlamingMojo (talk) 07:18, 9 September 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you Mojo for the Award and for your help in leading the group forward after all the years! Hoping for more years of friendship for all staff members.
- PS: This chat alternative and the Mentat tool are really nice add-ons for the wiki. House Erebus (talk) 18:55, 9 September 2026 (UTC)

Hey again Frosty, thanks for all the great work you've been doing! You technically never stopped being a staff member even though you left the Discord, and I just created a staff listing last night, so have added you to it over at Staff as an Imperial Chronicler for content writing. Just keep doing what you're doing and see you around! Look out for the new Reward next week, will issue it to you as soon as it's available! Sorahawk (talk) 06:09, 10 September 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you Sorahawk House Erebus (talk) 15:04, 10 September 2026 (UTC)
- @Erebus Hey Frosty! There are some plans in motion to possibly have some festive giveaways closer to Halloween and Christmas. Nothing confirmed of course but there are some intentions there. That being said, and again, nothing guaranteed, but if we happened to have the opportunity to gift some keys for the game away, I just wanted to find out if you'd want one, and for which platform? Just so that we can keep in mind if there's ever an opportunity for it... Sorahawk (talk) 15:48, 15 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Sorahawk, thank you for the offering! Yes I'd want one for Steam. House Erebus (talk) 16:03, 15 October 2026 (UTC)

Hey @Sorahawk, can we remap https://awakening.wiki/Hagga_Rift_Shipwreck to be Wreck_of_the_Kytheria ? House Erebus (talk) 17:17, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- Heya, is this because the Hagga Basin Map locations are outdated? We are currently running some community tasks to get them to update the marker coordinates and names as well, but will take some time... I myself will try to get to it to speed things up but I have something I want to look into for interactive dialogue trees at the moment...
- Oh but feel free to update the map marker names and coordinates too if you want! Sorahawk (talk) 17:27, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- There is no page for Kytheria, while the map marker points to the "Hagga Rift Shipwreck" page.
- Should I: create the Kytheria page or populate the HR Shipwreck page? House Erebus (talk) 17:36, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- I renamed HR Shipwreck to Wreck of the Kytheria on the map! Please create the Kytheria page if you could. Thank you my friend! <3 Sorahawk (talk) 17:48, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- Btw @Erebus, I noticed that sometimes you change links from something like
Wreck of the KytheriatoWreck of the Kytheria? Just wanted to understand if it's a Visual Editor thing or something, because the former works fine and looks cleaner too. If it's to cater for translations, I totally get where you're coming from, and I'm working on something that should automatically link to a translated version of the target if it exists. But that'll be sometime in the future. Man, there are a lot of things I forget to update you on because everything is in the Discord. Hahahahaha- Hey @Sorahawk, I wanted to ensure that 'Wreck_of_the_Kytheria' is consistent everywhere, since the page URL contains 'Wreck_of_the_Kytheria' rather than 'Wreck of the Kytheria'. House Erebus (talk) 18:26, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- Ah okay @Erebus, I definitely understand where you're coming from! It's just that the wikilinks automatically convert whitespaces to underscores already so it's definitely okay to leave them as just 'Wreck of the Kytheria' actually. It's nothing major for now but I worry that it might be something that unintentionally trips up any bulk text replacement in future, so preferably we can standardise all the links to just the shorter form? 🙏 Sorahawk (talk) 18:33, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- I can use regular text without underscores going forward. Any action required for all the prior pages using underscores? House Erebus (talk) 18:52, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- Thank ya kindly! For prior pages, if you happen to see them, could be worth changing them back? But I wouldn't go out of your way to find them all because I'm sure we'll eventually get them all when we do a standardisation pass across all the pages when the missions campaign eventually dies down... They just featured us in the latest Signal so we've even more coming in now 💀 I gotta go but will catch ya around! Thanks again @Erebus Sorahawk (talk) 18:56, 1 October 2026 (UTC)

Hey @Sorahawk, no worries. When you can in the future, can you please add a category on https://awakening.wiki/Category:Shipwrecks for Shipwrecks on the overland map? I want to add the Wreck_of_the_Hephaestus to it. House Erebus (talk) 19:00, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- Also, Captain_Tighe_Skorda should like replace and be redirected from Tighe_Skorda. What do you think? House Erebus (talk) 19:44, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- @Sorahawk thank you! House Erebus (talk) 10:58, 3 October 2026 (UTC)
- @Erebus No problem!!😁 Sorahawk (talk) 11:01, 3 October 2026 (UTC)
- @Sorahawk thank you! House Erebus (talk) 10:58, 3 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @FlamingMojo, I don't think https://awakening.wiki/Mentat:Missions/3846 was started (it says Completed), since there is no image gallery. I'll temporarily add a placeholder next to the mission block. House Erebus (talk) 19:50, 4 October 2026 (UTC)
- Ah good spot, this was actually cancelled due to a system error, I'll re-activate it now. Thanks! FlamingMojo (talk) 20:03, 4 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @Sorahawk, should we rename https://awakening.wiki/Spice_Workers%27_Guild as the "Spice Miner's Guild" or create a redirection? Also, where will be putting the Transcripts for Harvester, Atreides, and Harkonnen radio? House Erebus (talk) 05:07, 5 October 2026 (UTC)
- Ah Spice Miner's Guild does have a better ring to it. And I think we can place all the radio transcripts on the "Communinet Radio" page for now? Sorahawk (talk) 05:22, 5 October 2026 (UTC)
- thanks @Sorahawk, I'll likely use Expand/Collapse for each segment. House Erebus (talk) 06:48, 5 October 2026 (UTC)
Thank you @Sorahawk for your help during the past month, we accomplished much progress together! House Erebus (talk) 15:42, 6 October 2026 (UTC)
- Oh thank YOU too @Erebus, you've been a really great help fixing stuff up behind the scenes, allowing us to focus on other stuff as well :D 😁 Sorahawk (talk) 15:50, 6 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @Sorahawk, I started the dialogue tree for PAL in https://awakening.wiki/Testing_Station_163#Forgotten_Testing_Station. any objections that I move it to the page containing the mission? House Erebus (talk) 16:29, 7 October 2026 (UTC)
- Heya @Erebus, no objections here, I do also think it definitely fits more on PAL's page, or at least until we have the relevant Journey/Contract page. But we can take another look at that again in future. Please proceed, thank you! 🙏🏼 Sorahawk (talk) 17:28, 7 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @Sorahawk, can we add one or two missions in the The Fall of the Proteus journey page for taking a picture of the Proteus (which Zantara sees in his binoculars - with a label that appears "Imperial Penal Transport"), pictures of the deceased Fremen in the cave, and pictures of the cave murals? House Erebus (talk) 21:06, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Along the same objective as the one for Proteus, do you think we can add a batch of archeology-themed missions in December/January? The goal would be to scan (with a handheld scanner) all the previously occupied Fremen caves, monuments, and sietches and to take pictures of Fremen murals/symbols from those areas (which will be uploaded on the relevant pages). House Erebus (talk) 17:36, 14 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @FlamingMojo, I think https://awakening.wiki/Mentat:Missions/6834 needs to be reopened, since its missing content - do you agree? House Erebus (talk) 12:43, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

Image & References Feedback
Hey Erebus, I trust that you've seen and redeemed the new Wiki Swatch!!
Anyway, saw the new images in ITS 10 and that they were taken from a YouTube video. We kindaaa don't really pull screenshots from videos anymore after launch, especially if the HUD is visible in the image :P Sorahawk (talk) 03:27, 18 September 2026 (UTC)
- Hey Sorahawk, thank you for sharing this guideline. Most of the images I've posted this week are based on Funcom's livestreams or trailers, some with other without HUD elements.
- Unfortunately, I've been unable to see the new Wiki Swatch in my Mentat account. House Erebus (talk) 03:43, 18 September 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you! Apologies about the swatch, let me investigate it and try to get it to you, otherwise will probably need Mojo to work his magic. Sorahawk (talk) 04:05, 18 September 2026 (UTC)
- All resolved, thank you and Mojo! House Erebus (talk) 00:01, 19 September 2026 (UTC)
- Hey Sorahawk, I modified the source article, which is being used for completed translation missions.
- The modified section: Buildables#Base_Maintenance. Do you want me to move this information to another article, to preserve the translations? Alternatively, I can translate the French version for the text I've added. House Erebus (talk) 01:42, 19 September 2026 (UTC)
- Heya Erebus, glad to hear the swatch is finally in!
- For Buildables page, no worries about the updated content, I have just pushed out the changes for translators to edit! Sorahawk (talk) 02:48, 19 September 2026 (UTC)
- Hey Sorahawk, the location marker on the Anvil_Tradepost page is pointing to The_Anvil_Tradepost, for which content no longer exists.
- Can the location marker be overwritten or can "The_Anvil_Tradepost" now redirect to the "Anvil Tradepost" ? House Erebus (talk) 00:49, 20 September 2026 (UTC)
- Oh hey Erebus, good catch! The map marker can indeed be changed. Let me take a look at the Tradeposts and finalise their page names... They changed quite a bit from PreLaunch and I haven't really cast my eye over the Points of Interest stuff yet, that's why they're kinda messy for now Sorahawk (talk) 01:32, 20 September 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you! Apologies about the swatch, let me investigate it and try to get it to you, otherwise will probably need Mojo to work his magic. Sorahawk (talk) 04:05, 18 September 2026 (UTC)
Hey Sorahawk, based on the recent rollbacks for the articles I've edited, should I be using different formatting and category/zone linking ruleset? House Erebus (talk) 16:36, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
- Hi Erebus!! So I'm thinking of pointing them to actual pages instead of the categories, e.g. page title "Hagga Basin South" directly. And then I thought of listing all subregions on the Hagga Basin page itself, and then list every Point of Interest. But then the page got cluttered very quickly. So I'm not really sure how to organise the page anymore...
- But either way I think we should probably point the zones to actual pages and not the categories, but I know that we currently don't have actual pages, that's why you pointed them to the categories. Honestly, I might need some help with this. What do you think? Sorahawk (talk) 16:43, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
- I've been making three edits: adding a hyperlink in the body of the article, updating the zone in the infobox, and updating the category in the footer.
- The zone and and category can still point to the same location: a directory of all locations (e.g. tradeposts, outposts, testing stations) - I think that's how it's currently implemented.
- In comparison, the hyperlink in the body of the article can point to a page describing a region. For example, a page for Hagga Rift, which lists all characters, points of interest, outposts, items, secrets, etc. A page similar to the Arrakis. House Erebus (talk) 17:30, 25 September 2026 (UTC)
Hey @Sorahawk, not all the contracts from Contracts for Griffin's Reach are appearing for the Griffin's Reach Tradepost page, only the contract chains are appearing. House Erebus (talk) 16:58, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus! Yeah that is intended, only the chains are displayed, mirroring the in-game page. Then individual contracts can be viewed from each chain's page Sorahawk (talk) 17:01, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- In which page would the Do not Open contract appear, since it's not part of a chain, but it can be picked up from the tradepost board ? House Erebus (talk) 18:19, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- Hey Erebus, sorry I missed your reply. Do Not Open is part of the Vial Retrieval contract chain. So for single-contract chains, the contract chain page will redirect to the subpage which is the contract page. But don't worry about it, we got it covered here! Mojo and I are planning to push the pages out with some scripts, then the content can be filled in after Sorahawk (talk) 17:25, 1 October 2026 (UTC)
- In which page would the Do not Open contract appear, since it's not part of a chain, but it can be picked up from the tradepost board ? House Erebus (talk) 18:19, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
Hey @Sorahawk, do you know how to recover the missing images for Testing Station 29 or will a mission be created for them to be taken again? House Erebus (talk) 17:51, 5 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hmm seems like the images never existed in the first place, think Mojo generated the page back in June 2025 with the placeholder image names there from the start. Yeah we can probably get some missions for people to fill those in... sometime Sorahawk (talk) 17:56, 5 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @Sorahawk, I'd like to add a page for https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Windsack, since it is mentioned in several dialogue options or transcripts. If authorized, in which category should city be included, since it isn't presently on the Overland map? House Erebus (talk) 04:12, 7 October 2026 (UTC)
- Heya @Erebus, good call! I considered it previously too but didn't have much of the lore bits necessary for Windsack at the time :P
- I'd just categorise it under Lore for now.
- Btw, we wanted to ask if you have a confirmed source for the O'Garees being affiliated to the Smugglers? The impression we got was that they were just a family of salvagers. But we also don't currently have Tidjii's dialogue at hand so might be missing something. Sorahawk (talk) 05:14, 7 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Sorahawk, the dialogue trees from Athar_Banquet/The_Center_Piece and Athar_Banquet/Acquire_Materials contracts point to Phin's abilities as a merchant - or a smuggler. We could leave it as merchant until more is revealed. House Erebus (talk) 20:22, 7 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hi @Erebus, I read through the mentioned dialogues and they do confirm what we know of Phin being a black market trader, or a "smuggler" of sorts, but not affiliated with THE Smugglers, aka Free Traders 😂
- When I get the time to replay a new character and go through all the missions and dialogue I will see if I can spot anything new on this 😆 Sorahawk (talk) 06:11, 8 October 2026 (UTC)

Hye @Sorahawk can I move the dialogue from Ariste_Atreides relevant to the The Bloodline to the bloodline page? House Erebus (talk) 05:38, 9 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hi @Erebus yes that sounds like a good move 🙂👍🏼 Sorahawk (talk) 05:47, 9 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @Sorahawk, in the The Museum testing station, next to the item with blue lighting, there's a panel. Using the sequence of numbers learned during the From the Ashes journey I'm able to decipher the following number: ??-45236 ??-?7730 ??-77627 ?????? Any chance we could add a mission for taking closer screenshots of the panels for each Museum piece? I'd like to make another attempt to understand the meaning behind the D:A numbers. House Erebus (talk) 02:42, 10 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, I've created Mission 8244 for this, and created it as a Page Update one so that you can keep your eyes on it from here! Sorahawk (talk) 04:08, 10 October 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you, curious to find out what those numbers mean. House Erebus (talk) 04:31, 10 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Sorahawk, there an error appearing for the Mission "Error: no local variable "language_label" has been set." and it doesn't appear in the Missions table. I've added it to the Museum page though. House Erebus (talk) 16:16, 11 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, mission images are in, there seem to be a total of three/four panels in the station but seem to all say the same thing. In any case, you can use them for deciphering purposes first, but the submitted images have HUD so one of our fellow staff members @SmokinMoses is getting new pics himself that can be placed on the page permanently Sorahawk (talk) 13:50, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you @Sorahawk! I've temporarily cropped the images to decipher the numbers. However, I couldn't decipher the letters (or another symbol type), which are shown at the start of each line. House Erebus (talk) 16:13, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Sorahawk and @SmokinMoses, if more pictures will be taken, can you please also use a handheld Scanner inside the testing station rooms and scan the exhibitions with a cutterray? House Erebus (talk) 19:30, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus - I actually tried the cutteray on two of them that looked like Stravidium and Titanium and it did nothing, I'll try the handheld scanner next time I'm there. SmokinMoses (talk) 19:34, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- I will also lower the gamma, I had to raise to to 2.8 cause I couldn't see s*** and thought you only needed the pics for deciphering, if I'd known they'd be used for the Museum page I'd take more "cinematic" shots lol. SmokinMoses (talk) 19:38, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you @SmokinMoses! No rush on the pics, when you can.
- During the next visit, please let us know if the cutterray works on this piece https://awakening.wiki/File:DD_TestingStation_TheMuseum_8.jpg (which looks like granite) and ...
- https://awakening.wiki/File:DD_TestingStation_TheMuseum_7.jpg (is this mineral you thought was Stravidium Mass?) House Erebus (talk) 19:57, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @SmokinMoses, can we please add a mission to the Tradeposts page for taking a crisp pictures of the contract board hologram? Those letters can be translated. It could open a secret contract, and help us decipher the letter on panels located within the Museum ITS. House Erebus (talk) 22:35, 18 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, pardon me for being blunt but can't you just login and take pics? :D I'm happy to do it when I get around to it but you'd get it faster that way. Also I doubt you'd get anything secret out of it, contracts have all been datamined and there's no secret contract afaik, however I am curious about what the board says. SmokinMoses (talk) 16:40, 19 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @SmokinMoses, no worries. I've been unable to play since Jan and been waiting for cross-play for a workaround. Moreover, I promote missions tied to the Museum and the Contract Board, as a way for folks to get excited about contributing to the wiki. Once we know the board's contents, we can decipher the letters on the Museum panels. House Erebus (talk) 18:44, 19 October 2026 (UTC)

- Hey @SmokinMoses, can we please add a mission to the Tradeposts page for taking a crisp pictures of the contract board hologram? Those letters can be translated.

- Hey @Erebus - I actually tried the cutteray on two of them that looked like Stravidium and Titanium and it did nothing, I'll try the handheld scanner next time I'm there. SmokinMoses (talk) 19:34, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Sorahawk and @SmokinMoses, if more pictures will be taken, can you please also use a handheld Scanner inside the testing station rooms and scan the exhibitions with a cutterray? House Erebus (talk) 19:30, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you @Sorahawk! I've temporarily cropped the images to decipher the numbers. However, I couldn't decipher the letters (or another symbol type), which are shown at the start of each line. House Erebus (talk) 16:13, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, mission images are in, there seem to be a total of three/four panels in the station but seem to all say the same thing. In any case, you can use them for deciphering purposes first, but the submitted images have HUD so one of our fellow staff members @SmokinMoses is getting new pics himself that can be placed on the page permanently Sorahawk (talk) 13:50, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Sorahawk, there an error appearing for the Mission "Error: no local variable "language_label" has been set." and it doesn't appear in the Missions table. I've added it to the Museum page though. House Erebus (talk) 16:16, 11 October 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you, curious to find out what those numbers mean. House Erebus (talk) 04:31, 10 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @Sorahawk, when I see an error similar to Sandflies missing from MessageBundle:Factions, can I add them? House Erebus (talk) 05:01, 11 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, where are you seeing that error? Also yeah okay I will add them and the other gangs as well in a bit Sorahawk (talk) 05:10, 11 October 2026 (UTC)
- I'm seeing it above the "logo" on the Sandflies page. House Erebus (talk) 05:19, 11 October 2026 (UTC)
- Oh hehe I overlooked that when I changed the infobox recently 🤭 Sorahawk (talk) 05:25, 11 October 2026 (UTC)

Hey @Sorahawk, can I add Hands of Tareel to Category:Local_Gangs or should we keep it in Category:Lore? Also, any opposition to how i've been populating the Kirab and Sandflies pages, which will progressively hold more contents as journeys/contracts/dialogue is added to the wiki? House Erebus (talk) 22:02, 12 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, let's keep Tareel in Lore heh. I looked through Kirab and Sandflies and made a few tweaks, mostly just removing the Component Stashes but otherwise the pages are really thorough, great work!! Sorahawk (talk) 00:30, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you for the changes and feedback,
- For Sandflies, there are notes for components:
- "The Sandflies often keep stashes of these components in their outposts, as they can be turned to various useful purposes." (Light Caliber Compressor)
- "There are few uses for industrial-strength pumps on a planet as dry as Arrakis, but the Sandflies do utilize them in their operations in Sentinel City."
- I could add this to the Lore section for Sandflies, what do you think? House Erebus (talk) 03:51, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus! The descriptions for the components is a good point. Perhaps you can weave them into some lore paragraph on the page, yeah.
- I think the main thing is to avoid having a dedicated section or bullet list for it, so it doesn't seem like a pattern implying that all other factions should have it too Sorahawk (talk) 06:26, 13 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Sorahawk, I've updated the Sardaukar page align with the template for CHOAM, Spice Miner's Guild, Water Shippers, and Kirab. I've had some trouble adapting the template, is it up to spec - what do you think? House Erebus (talk) 23:04, 14 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, I see the changes! What trouble did you have with updating the template? Are you referring to Boilerplate:Faction? Sorahawk (talk) 01:44, 15 October 2026 (UTC)
- I struggled to find a decide what contents to show on Sardaukar page - rather than mention it in Journeys (e.g. deaths) or character pages (e.g. Aramsham), and how to organize the Deployment && Combat and Offworld deployments sections. House Erebus (talk) 01:53, 15 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, might be safer not to split Caedo's image... He seemed... upset in Discord when he noticed his image was attributed as Concept Art previously, sooooo yeah. Besides we'll need some "Menu Garments"-format images for the armor skins anyway, to standardise with everything else 😅 I have pushed up the priority of Module:Variants but will likely start with the Vehicles first because they're easier to get through Sorahawk (talk) 11:38, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
- I'll rollback the locations where I've added it. House Erebus (talk) 11:40, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

- Hey @Erebus, I was hoping you could help for something: Shishakli. I realised she was Chani's friend and Shishakli's Bite obviously comes to mind. While the description makes zero reference to her let alone the Fremen, could you perhaps add a note to Trivia that mentions the weapon and its potential relation to the character?
- P.S. I'm getting a bit busier so won't be around as much! Sorahawk (talk) 14:33, 17 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Sorahawk, Done: added Trivia note for the Character on the Fremen page.
- Thank you for you help and the work you've up in! If we don't chat before year end: hope you enjoy Dune 3!
- During the hiatus, is there an alternate point of contact amongst the wiki staff ? House Erebus (talk) 22:36, 17 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, thank you very much too! And hope you enjoy Dune 3 as well! I hope they will re-screen the first 2 as well so I can watch them all in IMAX hehe.
- @SmokinMoses is the next best PoC in my stead! Sorahawk (talk) 08:44, 18 October 2026 (UTC)
Saw your footnotes @Sorahawk for CHOAM Salvage Rights, looking at recordings of the event, the NPC was named Merchant, while the contract referred to a Representative. I wonder this implies that an NPC can have any profession, while being a representative of the faction. House Erebus (talk) 01:29, 14 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hahaha @Erebus I was gonna say that knowing Funcom, it's probably not that deep and just another... misalignment xD
- But I'm re-reading the contract details again and I think the reason why I didn't link the CHOAM Representative previously in the first place is because the CHOAM Representative seems to be a separate person, probably operating remotely, because they mention to look for CHOAM Merchants. so yeah this is prolly just me forgetting what I previously understood Sorahawk (talk) 01:40, 14 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @SmokinMoses and @Sorahawk, we need a page for the Strike at the Heart contract - which highlight Dragomir Halil's role in House Halil. What are your thoughts? House Erebus (talk) 15:59, 15 October 2026 (UTC)
Hey @Sorahawk, any objection to the creation of the Thinking Machine page? House Erebus (talk) 00:04, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
- Hey @Erebus, so previously Mojo established an understanding with the Dune Wiki about scope of coverage. I feel that having a Thinking Machines page cuts a bit outside our agreed scope. In my mind I think it best to just use
{{Inter|dune_wiki|Thinking Machines}}on the relevant pages, like PAL, The Bloodline, all the Pulse-Blades, etc. where appropriate. - Also I'll probably look into creating the desired contract page tonight, we were supposed to bulk generate all the correct pages but things happened and we got sidetracked Sorahawk (talk) 00:29, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
- @Sorahawk, Do you want me to scrap it or wait until more Thinking Machines are revealed in Book 2? House Erebus (talk) 01:46, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
- @Erebus Hmmm probably best to scrap it, since it's a lore concept not unique to Awakening and not central to Awakening either. We can always revisit in future if it ever changes but highly unlikely Sorahawk (talk) 02:50, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
- The page is now empty. Side note: Can I create contracts and Journeys for the Lost Harvest arc - or will the missing ones bulk-created in your queue ? House Erebus (talk) 03:02, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
- The missing ones are definitely in the queue and we're hoping to get to it soon. If you really wanted, you can probably create the 4 Journey pages using Boilerplate:Journey as the template. The contract chain and contracts are more... complicated to explain so I'd steer you away from that for now xD Sorahawk (talk) 03:23, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
- Great! Here's my first attempt: Villari's Prize; I'll continue with this one Digging Deeper and will keep everything on the page (to steer clear of contracts). If any adjustments are needed, please let me know. House Erebus (talk) 03:26, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

- Hey @SmokinMoses, can I create a flora and minerals page (to log all the plant life and the rocks found in-game), which will be similar to the Wildlife page? House Erebus (talk) 15:27, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
- Damn, that's actually a great idea @Erebus - plant life will be interesting, I remember a quest where you hunt down 4 different species of cacti and one of them is radioactive lol. SmokinMoses (talk) 15:39, 16 October 2026 (UTC)
- Great! I'll add that quest to the Plant life page House Erebus (talk) 17:56, 16 October 2026 (UTC)

Hey @SmokinMoses, I came across the "Atreides Tea House Wall Relief" mentioned for https://madrinas.com/products/dune-awakening-ultimate-collection (we don't have an entry for this on Miscellaneous Decorations) - do you want me to add the Madrinas set next to Rewards#MADRINAS:_Water_of_Life
- Hi @Erebus, Serene Tea House Wall Relief is there in Miscellaneous Decorations and in Rewards already. Remember we don't duplicate information, and since the Madrinas Dune Ultimate Collection is just repeating the 3 separate bottles, we don't display it Sorahawk (talk) 13:37, 23 October 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you @SmokinMoses.
- On a side-note, I've contact and confirmed with FC that rewards from The Scourge event will be character-bound (similarly to the prior CHOAM event) rather than account-bound (e.g. CHOAM Extension and Matron’s Decor rewards) - sharing in case this information will be posted on The Scourge's page.
Hi @Sorahawk, do you authorize me to create a copy of the CHOAM Salvage Rights variants and add them to the Cosmetics page and to create a page for each weapon variant? These variants are currently appearing on the [[CHOAM] and CHOAM Salvage Rights pages. Asking in case of Cosmetics duplication.
- Hey @Erebus, yeah that's fine, I mean eventually they'll all be replaced by like one line of code but in the meantime just go ahead! Sorahawk (talk) 20:01, 23 October 2026 (UTC)
Feature requests
Hey @Sorahawk and FlamingMojo, is there an opportunity to learn and work on Wiki features? I'd like to be able to create a mini-map similar to the one we add for Outpost pages, but it would should the overland map instead. The overland map mini-map would then be added to the pages associated to overland locations.
- Hi @Erebus, you mean... this? Map:Overland hahahha lol Sorahawk (talk) 19:59, 23 October 2026 (UTC)
- Following-up @Sorahawk, I've added a minimap for Smuggler's Run. Can I hide the tooltip inside the minimap and set the zoom-level?
- @Sorahawk and @FlamingMojo, similarly I'd like to help implement a box for showing an item (e.g. Atreides Warship Carving) without using Variants as a temp workaround. I haven't found a way to reference an item from the Miscellaneous Decorations table as an image or to reference a weapon without showing the entire Infobox, which contains all the stats.
- PS: there's current an error appearing for the Weapon infoboxes (e.g. Maula Pistol): "Error: No suitable data source is defined for this external data query" and "Expression error: Unexpected < operator."
