The wiki emptied both its Current and Upcoming tables on 2026-09-03 — 2.7's
events had ended and 2.8 was not listed yet — and said so in words: "There
are no Events in this category". Nothing else moved; Past Events still
carries twenty tables of the same shape.
`isInfinityNikkiEventPage` looked for a *populated* table, so it read that
as a redesign. The source spent four cycles reporting "the source has
likely been redesigned" at a page nobody had touched, reached the broken
tier, and went on serving a snapshot whose every row expired on 27 August.
A check that reads data cannot tell a rewrite from a quiet week. It now
reads the section headings, which an empty table does not take with it —
either heading rather than both, since requiring the pair would fail the
source over a renamed heading it does not even read, and one already
separates this page from the other three Fandom templates. docs/INGESTION.md
asked for structural checks all along; this one had drifted into content.
`statesNoEvents` then reports the page's own declaration, so the runner can
tell an answer from a failure. It insists on the statement rather than an
empty table, because a redesign yields an empty table too.
The emptied page is pinned as a fixture: an empty answer is a shape, and it
is the one that used to read as a redesign.

The Game8 page stopped being updated on 31 August 2025 and mentions 2026 zero
times, and it had been publishing five year-old events with endsAt: null — which
the app renders as live-with-unknown-end indefinitely. That is worse than an
empty lane, and nothing in the pipeline catches it, because a stale page is not
a broken one: it fetches, it parses, it passes every test.
The replacement is the game's Fandom wiki, permitted by the same standard
robots.txt that cleared Nikke, maintained to within two days, and shaped as
Current / Upcoming / Permanent / Past tables of Event | Duration | Description
| Type.
Its durations state a wall clock on both sides and no zone anywhere for that
column, so parseZonelessClockRange reads the clock and discards it, publishing
the printed date at day precision. That invents nothing and treats these cells
exactly as every Game8 date already is. Converting instead would mean picking an
offset, and the offset moves the day: July 16 20:00 read as UTC-7 is July 17,
and the start's day is half of every event ID this game will ever have.
The Game8 entry is removed rather than kept as a second opinion, since a source
whose every row is wrong is not corroboration. Its fixture stays: it is the only
page here carrying the labelled "Start: ... End: Permanent" shape, and the test
now drives it through the parser directly.
Titles come from a link's title attribute, which never passes through text(), so
they are entity-decoded by hand — otherwise "Alison's Travel Shop" becomes a
slug, and a slug is a localStorage key. The ingest sanitiser caught exactly that
during the build.

Adds the game and its Game8 events page. One `SOURCES` entry against the
existing game8 parser, plus one date shape that page needs:
`parseLabelledStartEnd` reads a duration cell holding `Start: <date>` and
`End: <date>` split by a `<br>`, which a tag-stripping reader flattens
into one run of text.
Four of the seven events say `End: Permanent`. That is the source telling
us there is no deadline, so they publish with `endsAt: null` and
`endPrecision: "unknown"` rather than a plausible date. The labelled cell
is also structure end to end, so it never becomes a summary — stripping
the leading half would leave "End: Permanent" standing where a
description belongs.
Verified by re-extracting the page with a throwaway script independent of
the parser: 7 rows in, 7 events out, every date matching.
Note the source itself is stale — its "Current Events" table still lists
January-May 2025 and "Upcoming Events" says there are none. The adapter is
right; the page looks abandoned, and Nikki coverage worth relying on needs
a second source at a higher priority.
