Contributing to the wiki
There are many ways in which you can help. Don't be afraid to edit and create articles!
Improving existing articles
- Adding missing stuff to navboxes/lists
- Most content should be listed on the wiki, but if you see something missing, please add it!
- Navboxes can be edited via the
v-d-elinks in their upper left corner.
- All feats up to 0.1.11.1 are in the wiki, but some might be outdated.
- Check items with example stats and fill in the stat ranges or check if the example is okay.
- Update the stats of items without weight to latest version.
- Detail pages; write walkthroughs, etc.
- All quests up to 0.1.11.1 should be listed.
- Detail pages; add any missing data to infoboxes.
- Detail pages; most are stubs or redirects to larger area.
- Detail pages; most are stubs and missing some important details.
Creating new pages
Check out the wanted pages for a list of frequently linked-to pages that don't yet exist. Feel free to create any of them!
Add any missing quests!
- Check out the quest infobox
- Other quest pages can work as examples
- Also add it to the relevant navbox
Want to add missing item pages to the wiki?
- item infobox and how to use it
- or use other item pages as examples
- Also add any additions to relevant item navboxes.
- Category:Item icons for a list of already uploaded item icons.

Want to add the missing abilities like psi powers to the wiki?
- ability infobox and how to use it
- or use the existing ability pages, like Stealth Mode or Telekinetic Punch, for reference
- Feat abilities should go to relevant feat page; no need for two pages and disambig.
Wanna add these to the wiki?
- character infobox template and all its parameters
- navboxes: NPCs and enemies
All location-related stuff is very much WIP due to the game content also being unfinished.
- There's the location infobox and navbox
- Zones lists every map file and its article
- Every zone should have its own detailed article later on, for now locations only have larger common pages
Uploading images
See File:Misc icon.png#filelinks for pages that still lack images
- Screenshots and editing!
- Category:Exported images has all the game icon files (may be outdated)
- Icons should be 33x33 or 35x35 PNG with transparent, or at least black, background
- NPC/mob models should be 100px high
- Unique NPCs can use cropped screenshots to illustrate their surroundings
- Generic NPCs and mobs are better off with transparent background
- Quests infobox supports 300x200 images, can be a key event or point of interest in the quest
- Every area should have a map image, preferably fully explored and without visible NPCs
- All areas up to 0.1.10.0 have map images
- Image categories
- Check Category:Item icons for already uploaded item icons
- Category:Feat icons for feat icons
- Category:Icons for all other icons
- Category:Maps for area maps
- Category:Portraits for NPC portraits
- Category:In-game models for in-game models of NPCs/mobs
- Category:Quest images for quest infobox images
Quality assurance
The usual wiki cleanup stuff.
- Tag dubious information with
{{verify}}or help verify information in existing articles. - Tag outdated info with
{{outdated}}or help update any outdated articles. - Tag short articles with
{{stub}}or help expand some article stubs. - Check article content for typos and/or bad grammar. Any typos present in the game need not be reproduced in the wiki, instead report them here
- Improve syntax/formatting as you see fit.
- Add pages to correct categories by adding
[[Category:Category's name]]on the page. - Check for any internal links to disambiguation pages and fix them.
- Create some links on dead end pages and create links to some orphaned pages.
- Fix any double redirects by redirecting the first page to the third page. Also check for broken redirects and fix them.
Want to discuss stuff?
- If you want to discuss anything specific to an article, you can use the talk page for that article.
- Also check the wiki thread on forums!
