Beware the wikki!

IIRC, there are supposed to be two (I think) Jyle Windshots. One in WFreeport. One in EFreeport. There is a story behind this-- imposter.

No there's a separate registration required -- Mg

Huh, guess I just used the same username/password for both a long time ago and forgot I that registered on the wiki.

They really should use the same sign-on for both, but I guess that would require either custom code or upgrading both the wiki software and the forum software (and we all know how popular the last forum software upgrade was ...)

Over half the stuff I want edited is not editable.

Yeah...editing out bad info is hard when a bunch of stuff is protected even from registered members. For example, the code on the tables in the Warsliks Woods page is completely messed up (tables within tables...tables are the devil) and I can't actually do anything about it.

Some parts of the wiki are auto-generated using wiki helpers (or macros, or whatever they are called). If the content of those sections is off, you can fix it by editing the original source of the material. For instance, if the Warsliks Woods page lists the wrong loot for A Skulking Brute, you just need to edit the "A Skulking Brute" page and then the Warsliks Woods page will update automatically.

If however the helper/macro/whatever itself is broken (as seems to be the case with the Warsliks Woods page currently), then only wiki admins can fix it. The only wiki admin I know of is Rahvin; I'd recommend PMing him about the page.

Still, only a very small part of the wiki (pretty much just the helper things and the front page) is controlled by admins. Everything else, (99% of the wiki) is editable by everyone.

I agree with that. Few things I have tried, like 70% of it, I was not able to change. Just gave up trying to do it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] But that was a long time ago, maybe has changed?

Register and edit it, the wiki is only as good as the community who takes the time to make it perfect.
