    Lightbulb Wiki page https://habboxwiki.com/Characters shouldn't have been renamed?

    @Cameron446:

    You renamed the HabboxWiki page about the widget Characters (a defunct Habbo feature). You renamed it to Avatars and changed the text so it says the widget was called Avatars.

    https://habboxwiki.com/Characters

    Was the name of this widget indeed Avatars or is this a falsification of history? In case of the latter I suggest to undo the changes.

    It was renamed to Avatars, now on the new client its called switch character and on the flash client its called AVATAR SELECTION. You did not need to create a thread over this as if you feel the page is wrong you could of even edited it yourself. I changed the page name because the use to be a talk page which I deleted a few days ago from a previous member of staff who have been around longer than me. Plus if you read the page the first bit of the intro is "Avatars also known as characters was a handy widget on the Habbo home page." Please don't call me out in a thread like this again, if you feel something is wrong either PM me or edit the page yourself. Thanks.

    It’s a bit dramatic and demotivating to say things like it’s a “falsification of history” don’t you think?

    This feature used to be called characters, now it’s called avatars. Don’t know when it changed, probably when Shockwave was discontinued?

    First sentence says “also known as characters” which makes it obvious it has been used interchangeably.
