UCP

Note: 'This article dates from a while back, when Zach was bureaucrat of the wiki. Please ignore all present tense and treat it as if it were past tense.'

UCP, also known as "you see pee" by Big Nate COMMENTS Wiki users is a controversial update created by FANDOM. The main motive of UCP was to modernize FANDOM and to create more editing opportunities for users.

The main issue with UCP for the Big Nate COMMENTS Wiki was the lack of 'serious' pages created, rather the users just did whatever they felt like. UCP hit a drastic change in the wiki, and the rate of activity has never been lower in the entire history of the wiki.

ZachOWott, current bureaucrat of the Big Nate COMMENTS Wiki said he would try his best to get activity back, though the activity rate has increased a bit, many users said it would take a lot to repair UCP's damage.

Controversy
UCP has been criticized for bugs and minimizing wiki activity. Due to the wiki mainly being a chat-wiki, it damaged the wiki heavily as the update was given so quickly. Despite several petitions and attempt to edit in UCP, wiki users lost motivation to edit and many left the wiki. The wiki hit the lowest activity rate on October 20, 2020, with only 5 editors reporting a day.

Henry Hudson also made a post telling wiki users about UCP, and it was met with immediate confusion and anger.

Response
UCP was protested on the wiki and attempts were made to repair the wiki, but unfortunately due to the lack of FANDOM staff attention, it was dismissed.

Wiki Activity Rate
Due to a recent poll on UCP, 11% of users say the wiki is in a terrible state, and 7% say it's beyond repair. Many pages have died out and contest-rates have died to an all-time low. Most recent contests have had less than 5 users in the contest, and on 11/25/2020 (November 25, 2020) the wiki hit an all-time low, and hit less than 20 edits in one day, which had never happened before. The wiki seemed to recover a few weeks later on 12/13/2020 (December 13 2020) and hit 600 edits for the first time in weeks. The wiki is expected to recover after the Winter Break which is due to be expected to be released in a few days.
