If you want to assign yourself add your name by the section --Tama (talk) 04:36, 3 November 2013 (EST)
- Also where applicable please improve a page from Special:ShortPages --Tama (talk) 14:49, 3 November 2013 (EST)
Questguides: some quests could use guides, i.e. House of Twain. Just add a Walkthrough section or use spoiler tags? What do you guys think? --Adrenalynnn (talk) 03:55, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
Page Creation Reminders
Layout
Standardization
- Just a quick note, before making pages about something look at similar pages and use the infobox and layout --Tama (talk) 07:16, 3 November 2013 (EST)
Creating new pages
Weapons
After speaking to Abyssal I discovered that we don't want pages for every single weapon, only those involved in quests. So don't create weapon or armour separate pages unless they are needed for quests. Thanks --AKTheKnight (talk) 18:34, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
Content
Reliability of Content
- Avoid adding information that you're unsure of to pages. If you feel that you need to add "correct me if I'm wrong" or "I'm not sure" to a fact you're writing, DON'T WRITE IT. --AbyssalMelody13 (talk) 18:18, 11 December 2013 (UTC)
Image Etiquette
- While I'm still a little iffy about using official minecraft images for the mobs, I think it is a complete waste of space if we upload the same exact image for different pages. Like the image for Maltic's Recommendation letter and Scrolls. That's the same exact image, just duplicated. It's a waste of storage space.. Reuse the same image. Don't upload an entirely new, but same, image for each page created. --Rookirk (talk) 01:55, 31 December 2013 (UTC)
- So seems there is another issue: Use the default texture pack. It would keep things very organized and consistent as well as people not saying, "What item is that"? (Hopefully no one uses texture packs like those to take pictures.) Also keep in mind, you can disable gui with F1 if you want to take landscape shots. If you are taking images of enemies or NPCs that need their nametag, set your gui to very small in the video options and take the image off to the side so that the cursor isn't on the subject. I hope the images improve after this... (Probably not)--Rookirk (talk) 19:30, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
- Just been exploring and I found this (Unused files). As the topic of files being re uploaded came up I was wondering if these pictures get deleted after a set time or if they are unneeded or something --AKTheKnight (talk) 17:52, 11 May 2014 (UTC)
- Just adding: I solve the cursor problem of NPCs and Mobs by taking the picture without F1 mode, and editing the picture in a image editor (like Gimp or Paint). In combination with "very small" gui the cursor is not visible at all. Also, I suggest not to just upload the actual screenshot, but crop it around the subject of the picture. Hoped this help... NicDonalds (talk) 19:43, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
- Alright, so now that there's an official resource pack, should we reupload images to reflect it? For example, upload the soul point texture as our new soul point thing. I feel like the models will be very hard to do, we'll need people who can make gifs that cycle through. Cloudaria (talk) 13:49, 23 January 2016 (EST)
Conventions
Friendly Reminder
- Make sure your grammar and spelling is correct! If you want to check if you have the right spelling and grammar go to http://www.Grammarly.com , then copy and paste your page into it then chose which way to check it then it will give you a list of thing to fix and how to fix it.--CptShroom (talk) 09:41, 27 December 2013 (UTC)
Links
After seeing several links that lead to pages in this wiki, I've seen that some of them aren't done efficiently. When putting links that lead to pages inside this wiki, use [[link|text]]. Notice the double brackets.
The 'link' section means that it will search for https://,/index.php?title=Link.
The 'text' part is what will appear on the page after editing.
For example [[Mythic|highest tiered item]] would search for https://,/index.php?title=Mythic and display 'highest tiered item' with the link, on the page. --Dar-krusos (talk) 03:20, 14 January 2016 (EST)
Grammar examples
- Alright, hey guys! I have been noticing a few of you are making grammar issues, so I thought I would say some of them.
- The first one is: After a comma you guys begin it with a capital letter. For example: "Maltic is a very small village, But contains good quests." Look at the word but, the letter B isn't supposed to be capitalized after a comma, only after a period, but a period wouldn't belong there. You know what I mean. :p
- The next, and last one is: Spelling issues. Guys, we need this wiki to be easily understandable, not hard to read. An example was on the Haunted Mansion page, the person who edited it before me (not saying any names, I don't even know the name, didn't check) spelled which as "wich." So guys, just remember to check your grammar, spelling, and always preview the page first. Thank you for reading this! :D Goodbye! Branthecan, Level 71 Warrior (talk) 20:07, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
- I agree. I know there's always going to be a mistake or two, but (<---) try your best to make this wiki look pleasing and readable. NicDonalds (talk) 23:46, 17 January 2014 (UTC)
Wiki Suggestions
Templating
Character Template?
- I've been working a lot at improving the NPCs category. To make it more standard, I think we should maybe come up with an organized way or template to do it. If we did this all NPC articles would be organized the same and look the same. NicDonalds (talk) 13:31, 30 November 2013 (UTC)
- Edit: I know there is an infobox, but I am talking about the NPC information in general. NicDonalds (talk) 18:37, 30 November 2013 (UTC)
- Added an optional coordinates field to the NPC Infobox to seperate location/coordinates. Before going through all pages to update them i think we definitely need a template or a standard layout, at least. Anyone want to help on that? --Adrenalynnn (talk) 08:09, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
- Updated the coordinates for all quest NPCs and the images to "ok" status, at least. Still no idea about layout/template, on 95% of the NPC pages there is just not enough text to warrant any layout. Any other ideas are welcome! --Adrenalynnn (talk) 09:14, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
Page Template Category
- In agreement with NicDonalds' suggestion, can we simply make a Page Templates category to house pages that are specifically meant to outline sections and infoboxes to be included in specific categories? For example, all NPCs should follow the Page Template:NPC page and all cities should follow the Page Template:City page. I've been working on cities and eventually will move to other locations attempting to standardize for more potential for information, and making a page template would mean any new pages that get added during my work would not have to be restructured. --Snickers10m (talk) 22:39, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
Armour Skins
- I'd like the armour skins to be included in the armour pages, would that be possible/wanted? If you agree, first there has to be a good way to make an image of them (screenshots would probably look ugly). Then the image should be included in the infobox, I think. What do you think? In my opinion it is an important piece of information that is missing right now. --Gr4phene (talk) 08:48, 21 January 2015 (EST)
- It's a nice idea, but would be a lot of work. Also, an infobox image would probably need to be the inventory avatar, with a Steve skin wearing the item. The mouse pointer should be placed on his 'nose' to ensure he's looking forward. This image (which used to be on this wiki) shows the kind of thing I mean, although it's not a Steve skin. Jamdog (talk) 10:33, 21 January 2015 (EST)
External Link Problem Fix
- I'm not sure if bug reports belong here, but there seems to be a problem that the wiki encounters when trying to save/create edits containing external links. It seems that the detection of one 'should' prompt the user to complete a CAPTCHA to prevent spam (or else the edit won't be submitted), but this prompt only appears in the "Edit Source" version of the editor. Trying to submit edits including external links via the visual editor will simply meet with an error message. Could you add the CAPTCHA to the visual editor version of the wiki somehow? (Of course it's possible to switch to "Edit Source", but it's slightly inconvenient. I'd understand if it wasn't possible, though.) --Htmlman1 (talk) 17:11, 22 January 2015 (EST)
Wiki Messages
Wynnter Update
We need to start adding stuff from the Wynnter update and fix falsified/outdated information. --BudderBiscuit (talk) 10:05, 23 December 2014 (UTC)
Miscellaneous Corrections
I was just looking through pages and I found this. So i am going to be trying to locate pictures if they exist or upload new ones if needed. Any help would be much appreciated --AKTheKnight (talk) 14:04, 12 May 2014 (UTC)
Mainpage
The Rules and [[Wynncraft Staff] pages are not yet linked to from anywhere. Both pages are quite important and I would suggest adding links to them directly on the Main Page. Is there any specific policy regarding the main page? Are we all allowed to edit it or whom should I ask first? --Adrenalynnn (talk) 10:24, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
- We aren't able to edit the main page as it is protected. I have tried to ask Tama about it but he isn't responding. If I don't get a response by this evening I will try again. --AKTheKnight (talk) 10:38, 13 May 2014 (UTC)
- Main page is protected for a good reason - imagine giving griefers access to that. I hate to bug Tama as well but unfortuantely the messaging system of writing on 'talk pages' is the best we have right now. If only Wynncraft staff kept up with the wiki... In a few days I'll find a few things for them to do on their side like cleaning out the 'Marked for deletion' and checking all these talk pages. --Snickers10m (talk) 02:08, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
- I forgot to post that I had partially resolved this: Tama spoke to me for a bit but then seemed to be unwilling to talk to me further. After digging around I have found out that "AbyssalMelody13 is the lead administrator for the Wynncraft Wiki." So I have started up a dialogue with her about wiki things. I will send her a message now regarding this and we will see what happens. --AKTheKnight (talk) 19:59, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Newcomer's Guide
I hope that I did not step on any ones toes, I fixed some of the grammar in the newcomers guide and added a few new sections to it that would be helpful. Feel free to undo anything if you do not feel that it is appropriate. --Minerdot9r (talk) 17:33, 5, June 2014 (UTC)
Identification Page
I noticed that there is a sufficient lack of information on this page. There is a note that says "Of note is that identifications have a 30% variance rate upon identification. For example, a weapon with a listed Loot Bonus of 10, it can have a Loot Bonus as low as 7 or as high as 13 upon identification." but the base "rate" - as they put it - or value is nowhere to be found. I have no clue where to put this information as there are so many weapons to begin with, but I think that it is useful information for the public to have. Any suggestions? --JonesofJustice (talk) 23:26, 23 July 2014 (GMT)
- The item base stats should be those that are listed on the official Wynncraft help/item-guide page. Not sure if all items are listed there. We should avoid creating a separate page for each item. One option would be to add the bonus stats to the Unique, Rare, Legendary pages. But not too sure about that, it might make those pages look overloaded with informations --Adrenalynnn (talk) 02:51, 28 July 2014 (UTC)
- The full item list is on Dakota's Site and also on my own Items Page, both of which use the Wynncraft API to retrieve the data, so should always be up-to-date. Jamdog (talk) 01:03, 28 August 2014 (UTC) Last Edit: 00:31, 28 December 2014 (GMT)
List of Mobs
I just finished the Tower of Ascension mobs table that was totally a blank few days ago. I could not figure out what the shard they drop, as I was not able to check. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.--Sam0624 (talk) 02:30, 13, January 2015 (UTC)
Relic Article
The text for the section on 'Relic Shrines' is great, but I feel that it's extraneous to the content being discussed in the article. How would you guys feel about me moving it to its own page? --Htmlman1 (talk) 16:20, 21 January 2015 (EST)
Armour Merchants
There seems to be quite the confusion in the whole Set Armour/Armour Merchant thematic complex as to whether we should use British or American English. The pages contain lots of broken links too and stuff like that, so I'll get to fixing them today. I'd like to replace the word Armour with Armour in all cases, since it is named like that in game and the current usage is inconsistent. --Gr4phene (talk) 06:58, 7 February 2016 (EST)
- I think redirection pages should be also made for the American English names Agent17 (talk) 07:41, 7 February 2016 (EST)
