How to create/edit articles
(Basic/Fast tutorial)
- If you want create new article, look at another articles for inspiration.
- Use categories! Each article Must be at least in one category.
- How to add category? Type on bottom of article something like this: [[Category:Quests]]
- If you dont know where your article become, put it in Category:Categorization requests and someone else will do it.
- If you put article in 2 or more categories, dont do it when one is another subcategory. For example, dont put articles to Category:Melee weapons and Category:Weapons
- Organize your articles by using titles.

Information Gathering
An obvious task we must all try our best at. Finding out more about Diablo III and adding the content to the wiki. Important central articles to add information:
- Known Items Listing - Any time a new item might appear.
- Witch Doctor - Any new info available.
- Witch Doctor skills - Skill trees and individual skills needed figuring out.
- Barbarian - Any new info available.
- Barbarian skills - Skill trees and individual skills needed figuring out.
- Category:Monsters - We need to update this whenever a new monster is added. If a name is not known, add a placeholder.
- Other, related
- Art controversy - Is this a thing of the past? It should be added all known information and rounded off as good as possible.
- Media Coverage - The archive for all Diablo fans. Please help fill out.
- Diablo 3 History - This and related pages should be finalised.
- Lore - Dire need of lore additions.
- Category:Settlements - Listing, loring.
- Category:Factions - Listing, loring.
- Category:Artefacts - Listing, loring.
- Games info pages and categories:
- Diablo I - Info page.
- Diablo II - Info page.
- Diablo III - Info page.
Standardising Content
A more advanced task is to create boilerplates for many pages:
- Classes - Needs done, even if lack of info.
- Skills - Needs done, even if lack of info.
- Skills also need a standard display system. Goign with individual articles for each skills?
- Possible to use a template for parts of the skills that's easy to link in to a skill page and a summarized page.
- Template that is contents of a table perhaps? Starting and stopping the table on the skill page
- Weapons - Got some weapons, should not be impossible.
- Armor - Got some weapons, should not be impossible.
- Monsters - Got some monster stats, should not be impossible.
- Locations - Such as Leoric Highlands etc.
- Characters - Personalities within the universe from lore perspective. Both chars in the game and not.
- NPCs - Personalities represented in one of the games. Possibly multiple infoboxes.
For all the above, infoboxes and navboxes are needed, and gathering/listing information as well.
Inter-Wiki Communication
- The Interwiki template is now finished for use.
- The Iw template (Iw = Inter Wiki, but small) is now finished for use.
Look at respective templates for how to use. Ask Leord if the least unsure.
