WikinessFollow

I am totally new to this wiki thing. I have used wikipedia in the past as a reference but never attempted to submit anything. This site is undergoing revisions through Groogle's hard efforts to incorporate wiki content to various parts of the site. There was a post recently regarding the status of the old class forums now that they are undergoing wikification.

For the Class forums and some other areas I'm not sure it's the best approach but as long as there are still discussion forums available that shouldn't be a problem.

In relation to the EQ Beastiary I think it's a great thing having it wikified once people start submitting in it. No more scouring through posts for the most current relevant information. Toward that end I'd like to start submitting info to the beastiary but would really like some help and feedback. As I said, I've never submitted anything in wiki form before and I can't seem to find any decent examples in the beastiary.

I started an entry for a mob I encountered recently, an ashenbone drake, or rather I entered the first info to the existing entry. I didn't know whether I should restate the things already listed outside the wiki format, like the mob level range and factions and related quests. I feel it should be in the wiki entry too but left it out for now.

I'd really like to see someone else's example of a well done beastiary wiki entry to give me an idea of how it can be done better.

I had to rate you up for that great suggestion. I agree, I would like to keep the link to the original class forums under the Forums section at the left margin and move the new wiki links to the Game Information section or create a new section in the margin for wiki links.
