 __TOC__
 ==About==
-'''MetaStation''' is a fully-functioning map available on the /tg/ codebase as an alternative to the default map, otherwise known as BoxStation. It is currently running on Basil, /tg/'s second server, and has recently run numerous times on Sibyl. It was the default map on Badger in its heyday, an older version was running on NoxStation for a while, and a forked variant on /vg/. Recently another version was forked to Paradise. It has been tested extensively and has been generally well received. It is largely maintained and updated by '''[[User:Metacide|Metacide]]''', uses the work of many others, and has been worked on by various other people who have updated and maintained the map over its history.
+'''[[MetaStation]]''' is a fully-functioning map available on the /tg/ codebase as an alternative to the default map. It is currently available on both Sibyl and Basil, if players vote it in using the map-vote system. It was previously the default map on the /tg/ servers Badger and later Basil, and various edited versions have run on NoxStation, /vg/, and Paradise Station.
+MetaStation ran on Basil for a long time and has been tested extensively, being generally well received. It is largely maintained and updated by '''[[User:Metacide|Metacide]]''', though it uses the work of many others, and has been worked on by various other people who have updated and maintained the map over its history.
 '''Key points to note are that:'''
-* The map plays best with 30+ players.
+* It is geared towards higher populations than the default map.
-* The only change is the layout - functionality is the same.
+* Key areas are more evenly spread to reduce local overcrowding.
 * It feels much more open, attacks in public are harder to get away with.
-* It has a much larger maintenance system, useful for stealthier tactics.
+* It has a large maintenance system covering most of the station, useful for stealthier tactics.
-* There are in-game maps on the walls of the station to help you find your way.
+* There are in-game maps and direction signposts on the walls of the station to help you find your way.
-* The escape shuttle is larger, with a cargo hold to bring valuable gear with you.
+* The escape shuttle has more seats, a large cargo bay, and larger medbay, brig, and bridge.
 '''Further info''' regarding MetaStation is often posted [https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=3090 in this thread] on the /tg/ forums, with feedback also welcome there.
