Main Page
Welcome to the SMBC Wiki!
This site was modeled after explainxkcd.com and requires a lot of work, such as adding transcripts and explanations, documenting recurring characters, and making the site look less like xkcd.
Pages up to the latest comic have been created, but almost all of them still need proper transcripts and explanations. For comics without manually created transcripts, a bot has been run to generate transcripts automatically using AWS's Textract. These transcriptions have a lot of errors, but they are somewhat sufficient for searching for comics by text.
For those who want to contribute: The most helpful thing you could do is add basic explanations to comics that explain references, such as linking to external sites that define terms, explaining who mentioned real people are, and pointing out references to science or philosophy topics. Don't worry too much about keeping style or voice consistent across the wiki, that can be looked over later, and the primary goal right now is giving at least something helpful for people who might not be familiar with the topics SMBC references.
You can add a redirect to Wikipedia by using the format {{w|Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal|SMBC}}, which as an example creates the following link: SMBC
There is also a Discord server at https://discord.gg/ARxyyTEzr7, which is to be used for broad coordination and planning, though all that gets discussed on there should eventually be explained on public facing wiki pages as well.

- I hate the way humans write dragons!
- They always talk as if they're surprised to be dragons. And they always have names using words like fire and claw and wing. But those are normal parts of our anatomy! Why would we constantly
- Be referencing them?
- Ech, I've seen the way dragons write humans.
- What do you mean?
- "Never!" said Short-neck in human language through her mostly square-shaped front teeth. She knew she was vulnerable due to her weak human skin and tiny brain, but she had to save her hairless offspring, Thumb-hands and Two-Legs, from the evil human wizard, Dangle-balls.

- "i will be the highest ranking social ape!" noised dangle-balls.
- Short-neck could see his face flush red, but due to her human vision was not able to perceive thermal changes, which had a longer wavelength.
