Hiya, I see you're starting on the biome split. Do you think theres any merit to having the stats of the biomes be callable via properties? e.g. like how you can currently use {{Q|Elephant|Move Speed Base}} to get 4.8 that will automatically update when the page is.

It'll need a extra work to make/update a template to set the templates, but it'd allow stat references, templates, math etc. to be automatically updated just by editing the biome page. The question is whether theres actually a usecase for it, given its rare that you'd ever have to call that.

Also, here have a nav template for the bottom of the page - when the new biomes come with Odyssey we can add them. {{nav|biomes|wide}}

I think it's a case of effort vs. reward. If some XML wizard can extract the stats we need in a format that isn't bloody murder to cram into a template I do think it would be a good idea. If we're forced to experimentally tease out stats and then manually enter them that's a much bigger hurdle.

As someone in the discord pointed out it appears growing seasons can now have increments of 5 days instead of 10 with the 1.6 update, so it's a sign that the stats need another pass to ensure accuracy anyways, and having them callable would make this and future updates significantly less legwork.
