[Discussion] Come one, come all, come help with the wiki!

[BrianFreud]

For all the info that already is in the wiki, there's still plenty of missing info for most items. This holiday season, when you're bored and want to kill a few minutes, maybe come toss a few edits in. Literally everyone owns at least a couple items with wikipages that need tweaking - come tweak them!

At the bottom of the rares main page are a bunch of auto-generated reports for missing info, everything from "can it be rotated" to "does it make noise" to "what are the stats on this rare armor piece".

Once you're on an item's page, editing is easy. Just click on "Edit' at the top:

Once you're on the edit page, you can edit the raw template, but it's much easier to use the editor. On the edit page, you'll see a new option in the tabs up top. Click on "open Item Editor" to use the editor. Don't forget to save!

Here's a copy of the list of reports of missing info, also found at the bottom of the rares main page:

• Items where the originating shard is unknown. [552 items]

We're almost at 100% for 2016... only 8 items are missing graphic and hue info, so they can at least display an image. Surely someone here owns one of these and can help with that info?

Cracked Armament Of The Captured Minosian Of Barbius
Enorme Successo Dolce Vendetta 'The VanDonts
Green Tree
Gruesome Standard Of The Pale Orc Warband, Carved Into It Are The Words "Glory To Da Bludgod!"
Hanging Daggers
White Tree

Written Oath Of Marriage


Also, if anyone knows of any items that are missing from http://stratics.com/w/index.php?title=UO:This_Year's_EM_Items , please either add them or let me know so I can add them!
