So when any story is reviewed for new NPCs, it doesn't get listed.

I have to reread the story lines to see if any characters, even mundane characters get listed. For example, I was a bit dismayed that the red bikini babe from The Maydays story, was not included, but yes, I would have to search up names and put them in the search bar to see if anyone catches on. If it is something old, I need to scroll through NPC Characters List. I might as well research the stories myself! However, I don't think I am able to catch and scan full body scaled NPCs.

I might miss out on some characters like the usurpering Jalil. He looks cool. Missing Friday (joke) character as well. For quite a time, I forgot that monsters with a scripted dialogue might count as a NPC! Maybe that Curse Bringer monster (from Ejaeli's character quest) can just have a dialogue guest appearance and bam, one high quality full body scaled monster ready to go!

So I was thinking if a New Object(s) subsection under the "What's New" section would be good, but a bit more effort to go. I think it's probably better to have a NPC tab under the story pages. That be good. I think I'll see if Jalil can have a full body scale scan.

Nope.

I have already considered having new NPC pages be listed under What's New and even discussed it with wiki staff over a year ago. But it was decided not to so because it would essentially be story spoilers on the front page and that would not be okay with everyone.

If you want to know what NPCs are in an event, in the game just go to Journal > Story > Events tab > Click an event > Click the characters button. It will list both NPC and playable characters that appear in the story.

That works too.

I also feel like mentioning something. Just because you see an npc character somewhere, it doesn't mean they have a full body art (which is what we use for npc entries). Misc npcs, like the bikini lady from maydays whose lover was eaten, also don't have their own npc entries in journal so adding any info about them would require additional effort because any synopsis would have to be written by editors instead of taken straight from the game, which might not be even worth it in the end. VAs are quite often not listed for them as well.
