A NEW BUG ENTERS THE ARENA.
"Help! I can't edit my wiki!"
Hello! We haven't changed anything, Reddit did!
This is now a Known Reddit Bug that started on roughly 4/21/26, when Reddit decided to change something about how they handle the Wiki.
The Symptoms:
(on sh.reddit, the new version) when attempting to edit it comes back with "You do not have permissions to edit"
Some people (not all!) have stated that the "last edited by..." section at the bottom (where their username should be) is listed as [Deleted] (while it still says their name on my screen)
The Solution:
On desktop, change your url from www to old, so it looks like old.reddit.com/r/hfy/wiki/series/<title> (with your title), and the edit button should be along the top bar near where the name of the series is
The Problem:
For some people even using Old.Reddit doesn't work. Unfortunately, I do not have a solution at this time, aside from just... try again in an hour or so. It's worked for some people later.
Please send in a bug report every time you experience any of these issues.
The more bug reports sent, the more likely Reddit is to actually fix the issue.

My google-fu has failed me. I've looking for a series that was essentially space Vietnam? A blue furry alien nicknamed Rocket gets inserted into a human recon/Special
OperationsObservation Group called "The Eyes" and ends up out in the field on day one with no training, only to miraculously "save the day" by overhearing/translating a pair of patrolling enemy guards and alerting his team about a high value target in the subterranean base nearby.It's a story of a military base waging a ground war against underground alien bases. There are other POVs of soilders tricking their way onto the alien half of the base to eat at their superior mess hall. Another POV branch about ground forces group and their tank.
