Voidstone? Ha! Who woulda thunk it?
I commented because commenting is important to an author.
Comments can be short (like this one) or long. They can be funny or serious.
They are a way for the author to acknowledge a reader.
Voidstone is a building block of imagination. +1 for you.
Your friend and colleague,

is this obsidian, netherite, or bedrock?
I love this page, as it clearly shows what it means to write for our collaborative site. Not only is the idea itself amazing, but the choice in execution to include references to many other pages just makes it so much better. Keep up the good work my man!
Voidstone is almost as indestructible as a Nokia 😃
I'm happy to hear that you enjoyed my page and the infographic
I may translate this article to the Spanish wiki 🇪🇸
That sounds great! If you need the text in the infographic translated, I can help. I don't know Spanish myself, but if you say what to translate the text to, I can send you an image with translated text.
Alternatively, if you are familiar with Inkscape, I can send you the SVG file for the infographic and you would be able to edit the text yourself.
I like the main idea of voidstones but it just feels like a cheat code with all of the extra abilities like the infinite Energy production.
I do agree that having infinite energy production is a bit "cheaty", but the whole infinite electricity thing is already mentioned in existing articles, for instance the articles for Level 1 and Level 3. I wanted to provide some explanation for where this infinite electricity is coming from. I thought voidstone would be a good way to solve multiple issues at once.
It can be described as bedrock in Minecraft but more useful, more clever.
We can say that if the void stone contains a lot of energy, the void stone shows the power of a very powerful energy that creates everything called "dark energy".

The changes add a lot of depth to the page and clarifies often-ignored parts of the lore like Level 2's blackout. It felt like it was connected to the other parts of the Backrooms, which is something not all pages can pull off, so bravo. The added sections and especially the excerpts were extremely well written as well.
I do have an annoyance with the article: it's ending isn't satisfactory. We are introduced to a character who is working to better understand Voidstone and a character moving to Base Alpha to see if they fixed the problems with them, but we never get any conclusion to either of these plotlines. There should at least be a follow-up blurb, but I'd prefer if we actually got to read more from Dr. Laurent's research.
There are some minor SPaG parts that I noticed, but they were minor.
"An excerpt from an article written by Dr Laurent" ~ Dr should have a period after it
"I became the lead scientist for the collaborative The M.E.G.-Ariane Circle voidstone research team" ~ "The" before "M.E.G." should be dropped because it's already present before the adjective "collaborative".
That is encouraging that you like the changes (mostly). Thanks for highlighting the spag issues; I fixed those. Regarding Dr. Laurent's story feeling incomplete, I did that intentionally as in universe as of 2025, Dr. Laurent is still investigating to properties of voidstone. However, if that feels unsatisfying for the reader, I can consider changing it.
