EVENT: PWI Wiki Kickoff Contest!(no more submissions)

eatwithspoons · August 2009

good good, the wiki is looking great. I can't wait til the contest is over so I can polish up the formatting on everything. Not the guides, more like the section pages.

Kittennice - Heavens Tear · August 2009

I can't wait till it's finished either. I'll end up doing more guides like an all pet stats and pet food one, but I'll need the communities help on those. That's why I'm waiting for the contest to end.

And before I forget...

Good Luck Everyone!

Piliener - Lost City · August 2009

I would like to get a bunch of people together for a world boss guide. I have only ever done three so it will have to be an amassing of information. I'll probably start on it in the coming week and leave it open for editing.

Oh and keep an eye out I plan on starting a Forgotten Frostcover guide as well in the near future.

I have a question and hope someone can help me.

I like to request for page lock but not sure how. Do I just add a level 3 header in the Request for Page Lock wiki page with reason?

Thanks

It will be the best guides, doesn't necessarily have to be evenly distributed over every server

http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Crafting_Reference
Decided to repost my (incomplete) reference from our guild forums. Not sure if it should be in (not yet existing?) Crafting category. Also not sure if I'll add remaining items -- it seems that after 5X players' attention shift from regular items to molds and TT anyway -- but if anyone wants to add more data, please do.

If you want to put a link somewhere else, I would guess that the best place would be at the bottom of this page:

http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Armor/Weapon

I'm going to clean everything up so we have indexes for all the categories, but I'm not going to do that until the contest is over.

LTraveller - Dreamweaver · August 2009

I think it's too early to set up links to this page. Crafting is a complex subject -- several item types (ornaments, potions, tomes, ...), subtypes for some of them (heavy armor, light armor, robes; magic weapons, melee weapons, ...), several material types (regular, TT, Lunar, ...) -- so I won't be surprised if this page will be renamed or split once the contest is over and you'll decide how the wiki will be structured.

for sure, I'll be doing my best to make it really clean

Lyndura - Lost City · August 2009

How can I lock my guide so no one edits it until the contest is over?

EDIT:

Well, guide posted: http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Lyndura%27s_Blademaster_Class_Guide..

And added it to the locking list <.<

sidmeyster · August 2009

I am a huge fan of Wiki's nice work PWI *bows*

Can we also have:b:beg

1- Breadcrumbs so it is easier to navigate to and from sub-levels. Something of the form

[[Main Page]] > [[Class Discussion]] > [[Cleric]]

I am not sure about code submission regulations here so will leave it out for now.

2- Dynamic RSS feeds - I am lazy and find watch lists on wiki's tideous

3- More printable documents - I know the Wiki is a constant WIP and believe printing support will eventually be implemented. Direct browser printing reduces layout to standard HTML. *whispers* the standard print CSS that comes with mediaWiki should be detected by standard browsers but my browsers are just killing the layout, am I doing somethin wrong here. Maybe the functionality needs to be manually added?

"&printable=yes"

4- Remove "Powered by MediaWiki" from bottom right corner. Trivial but good practice imo.

5- Reputation - it is important to all community users. It would be cool to see a page ranking system which not only is a way to credit good contributions but also direct viewers to more authentic content.

6- Mediawiki offers some useful extensions .. can we have one for FLV's SWF's and Videos. I know there was a user post which you replied to with a workaround eatwithspoons. I am working on two seperate flash animations which I would like to be contained within the wiki, I have a faction server but it's restricted to members only, others wont be able to benefit b:sad

sorry I am just so excited at the idea of the Wikib:pleased couldnt help throwing in some suggestions!

It is great to see how the submisions are defining the wiki and it is beginning to take shape.

great work guys! - most of the content is already up and much better structured so I will just stick to squiggling here n there b:victory

eatwithspoons · August 2009

We're going to deal with all that fun stuff after the contest ends, but yeah our goal is to have a side nav for easy browsing

Lairian - Sanctuary · August 2009

I hate to ask something like this, but I've just been wondering about how long it usually takes to get a page listed somewhere. Cause I made a Cat shop page a while back(http://pwi-wiki.perfectworld.com/index.php/Consignment_Shop), and it hasn't been set up with a link yet.

I know your probably swamped right now, with the deadline coming up, so if you can't get it set up until after this ends, that's fine. Keep up the good work though, and hopefully this wiki will be a huge success even after this contest ends.

I just made a new category on the wiki for us to use for these. Yours is listed on the main page now, if we end up getting a bunch of guides I might make sub-indexes

Unreal_God - Harshlands · August 2009

Just made a new flying guide
