🏛️ Notaepedia

A Notaepediais a Sage-generated encyclopedia attached to a Study Room. It turns the room's structured World data — characters, places, events, objects, and context entries — into polished, encyclopedic articles that any room member can read.

Think of it as the published reference bookfor your room's world. Where the Worlds system stores raw facts, the Notaepedia presents them as confident, readable prose — the same way a real encyclopedia synthesises facts into an authoritative entry.

When a room owner or moderator clicks Generate Notaepedia, Sage works through every entity in the room's linked World and produces one article per entity. Here is what Sage reads for each article:

Sage follows strict rules for all Notaepedia articles:

• ✦ Third-person, encyclopedic tone — no first-person, no chat language
• ✦ Confidence-hedged language when facts are uncertain (e.g. “reportedly”, “believed to have”)
• ✦ Cross-references use [[Entity Name]] syntax, automatically converted to live links
• ✦ HTML output — headings, lists, and blockquotes render properly in the reader
• ✦ No hallucinated facts — only what the World data supports

Notaepedia organises articles into five categories, each shown as a section in the left navigation panel. These match the entity types in the Worlds system:

The Notaepedia reader uses a three-panel layout designed for exploration:

Every entity in the Worlds system has a confidence score from 1 to 5 — set when the entity is created or updated. Sage uses this score to calibrate the tone of the article.

Notaepedia articles link to each other automatically. When Sage writes an article about a character, it wraps related entity names in [[double brackets]]. These are converted into live links during generation.

For example, if an article about Inspector Lestradementions Sherlock Holmes and 221B Baker Street, those names become clickable links that jump directly to those entities' articles.

A Notaepedia article becomes stale whenever the World data it was built from changes. Specifically, an article is marked stale when:

• ✦ The entity's name, description, or attributes are edited in the World editor
• ✦ A relation involving this entity is added, changed, or removed
• ✦ A source link that was cited for this entity is updated

A stale article is not hidden or removed — it stays visible to all members. It simply signals that the content may not reflect the latest World data. The old article is often still useful to read while you wait for regeneration.

Room owners and moderators can add moderator notesto any article — without affecting the Sage-generated body. This is the place for editorial additions that Sage can't produce on its own:

• ✦ Community-specific interpretations of the entity
• ✦ Disputed details that members should be aware of
• ✦ Spoiler warnings or reading-order guidance for book clubs
• ✦ Links to specific discussions in the room chat or posts
• ✦ Corrections to Sage's article pending a full regeneration

The room's Notaepedia has a single visibility setting that controls who can read all articles. Room owners configure this from the Notaepedia config panel.

The entire Notaepedia can be exported as a standard EPUB 3 file — readable in any e-reader, including Kindle, Apple Books, Kobo, and the NotaeLibrary reader.

To export, click the Export as epub link in the right panel of the Notaepedia reader. The file downloads immediately — no email, no waiting.

You need to be a room owner or moderator with the Notaepedia Owner feature enabled. If you do not have it yet, contact your platform administrator.
