Update Wikipedia

[mikeledo]

There have been tons of changes in how things are done, the little box to do all, changes to how we donate to AWs, etc. And there is still nothing in writing on wiki explaining blueprints. I would think a real newby might be swamped attempting to figure out the game and all the nuances. I think wiki needs an overhaul.

I'm thinking the same thing, when I looked up the chapters, they still only showed the 5th or 6th chapters.

I think the issue with updating wiki is it would cost INNO time and money and in doing so they would get zero return on the dollar because they can't measure the folks who might stick around and spend diamonds if they had a decent guide. Since Gems etc. has come about, Wiki has become secondary and even Gems has stopped keeping up with chapters and best guest race set-ups.

Lol
Gems tries, but the website gets bigger, with more content to cover. Then there are events every 5 weeks or so.
There is a crew working on the wiki, they are on the Beta team.

 

[mikeledo]

So...Don't hold your breath?

 

[Lelanya]

Both teams are working on it.

Or maybe you can step up and volunteer to help in the work?

So the wiki is written by regular players? I assumed it was maintained by Inno....The gems website is a wealth of knowledge. I’d be lost without it.

How did you get "regular players" from "beta team"?

The beta team is made up of regular players that love to be tormented in beta tests and are generally have a masochistic streak in them(non-sexually of course).

You never know about those masochists... always who you least expect. Am I right? haha

The beta team is made up of regular players [...]

And I interpreted the "beta team" as the team of devs who work specifically on things for the beta server (future destined to live servers), which is tested by regular players (who give feedback that may or may not influence the live server outcome). Apparently, I was incorrect.

Generally, if the testing is done by in-house Dev or staff that is called "alpha" testing and by them dedicated real-world players we call "beta testers"

 

[Lelanya]

It's the Beta mod team so far as I know.

 

[Enevhar Aldarion]

Testing on Beta and being a volunteer mod or CM are two totally different things. I think the people who mainly add information to the Wiki work for Inno, but as with all wikis, if you register, so that you can sign in, you can fix errors and add missing information too. And from the address bar having EN in it, I think you may have to be registered on the International servers/forum to change anything on the Wiki.

@helya can you give us any clarity on who is in charge of updating the Wiki?

Team Spirit feedback page 8 post 158 Kersepitje keeps saying 'we'. Is she on the wiki team, or using a 'royal' we?
