Adding item to wiki
 

I've got details for an item that's not on the wiki. I can't find the link to add items. Any help?

To add new pages to the wiki you just have to add a link to them as if they were already there, such as on the page of the zone or mob where it drops. After you save that link will be red, and you can click it to go to the new page for your item. Once you save your item's page the link to it will become blue/purple like normal.

You should probably copy/paste an existing item as a basis though (they have a template for them).

Thank you Loramin. In fact there's a tool in the wiki that fills in all the details from some external source. I saw it yesterday, but can't find it again now. It was pretty handy.

It gets the details from zam.


I strongly encourage you to browse through this http://wiki.project1999.com/Help:Contents before you begin.

I see you added a massive velium weapon, I went ahead and added the others I'm aware of. Nice Work though. :)

Sideways question -

What qualifies a drop as Common / Uncommon / Rare?

I don't know of any official definition, and I don't think those terms are applied consistently in the wiki. For instance, the Ferocious Cauldron Shark will always drop either the (Very Rare) Driftwood Treasure Chest or the (Rare) Wand of Shadow, so really the former should be "uncommon" and the latter "common".

However, whoever added that entry was probably thinking of the combination of the Ferocious Cauldron Shark and its placeholder. The "named" Ferocious only appears something like 1 in 25 times, so in that sense the Driftwood Treasure Chest is (sort of) correctly listed as Very Rare.

So long story short, I'd just use your best judgement and not worry too much because there is no standard (that I've seen).
