The wiki puts everything in one place, is more detailed than those sites, and has a few features (eg. the location Xs on maps) they didn't ... but to say it's "not Classic" is to admit you really don't know what classic was like. Today we might look at a map on a second monitor instead of printing it out and putting into a binder (like we did back in the day) ... but it's the same exact map the EQ Atlas guy drew 20+ years ago.
The wiki is like a stock market report. Not classic. There was no web site in classic that people alt tabbed to to check and dictate item prices.

The "Wikimedia Foundation" is not classic and neither are pride bunnies.
