Wikis are great sites to collaborate information, even for Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. There is a ton of information in the world of Warhammer Online; over 20 different scenarios, four thousand quests, thousands of items, NPCs and much more. A War wiki is a great place to centralize that information and build a great informative community to help other players.

Every person who visits a Warhammer Online wiki has access to edit, delete and contribute information to improve the content. It is a forever growing entity that continues to be developed by the owners and visitors. Every edit is logged incase of abuse or the previous edit was better and can be reverted. You can see as each page develops and the entire history of how it evolved. If you’re unable to find the information you’re looking for at the time you visit, you can always check back at a later time or if you found what you’re looking you can always share it on the wiki. There is a discussion page on each content page which acts as a forum. You can request for updates, information, add comments or just chat away.

We all know how popular Wikipedia is. They are the world’s largest encyclopedia. Their information is great but there are certain topics which are not covered in depth. With a game like Warhammer Online, their world is huge and forever changing. Patches are released approximately twice a month with new content and changes to the current environment. Without the help of a large community it does become difficult for a wiki to have the most updated information unless they have a large amount of volunteer writers or staffs who contributes to that information as well.

Wikis have their own built in search engine for you to find the information you need but like most things in life, it is never perfect. Broadening your search term or using different spelling variations may help with what you’re looking for. For example, instead of searching for “beginning quests for Chosen” you can instead search for “quests” and see what links become available to you. Wiki engine uses a rather different engine and many people may have trouble finding the information they’re looking for even if it is available. An alternative is using the most popular search engine Google as a medium. You can search the specific site followed by the information you’re looking for. An example would be “site:domain beginning quests for Sorcerer”.

Down to the core, wikis are a great place to find and exchange information. With a great team behind the wiki would be a good start but with a large community helping it can be the best source of information for Warhammer Online. If you find something useful in a wiki then give a little back to the community who gave you that information. Become a “good internet citizen” and share your wealth of knowledge. You will be recognized in the community and will receive great respect and help when needed.
