The Diablofans Wiki Reaches 1,000-Article Milestone

As I hope you are all aware, in January this year we launched our very own Wiki here as Diablofans. Undaunted by the competition from Diablo Wikia, and determined to provide our users here at Diablofans the best info on Diablo found anywhere, we've since been working to populate our wiki with more and more articles. And a few days ago, we finally got 1,000 articles up and running.

Below you will find some samples of what we have in our wiki so far. Currently, there's is very little information available on Diablo 3, and as a result, most information added so far has been about Diablo 1 and 2.

I'd also like to take this moment to thank a few of our regular users here at Diablofans for their help over at the wiki since launch. Not all who contribute there are staff or sysops which is important to remember.
Your help is really appraciated

The wiki will continue to expand, and if you want to help out just get over to the Wiki, or go to our Wiki Forums if you have any questions.

Given the current rate of growth of the DF Wiki, I dont see why it wont surpass the Diablo Wikia in article count by the time of the Diablo 3 release date

Yeah, you're right! After all, it is our goal!

Hey Phrozen, thanks for putting me up! Question: why does my name link to Blackwing's page?

Yeah the new website is pretty sweet. You should put in a section about the diablo books too.

Re: The Diablofans Wiki Reaches 1,000-Article Milestone

The characters a locations of lore, mostly extracted from books, are being covered in there. But yeah, specific pages for the books with synopses or some such would be a good addition. Maybe you could work on that, Mordonan

Re: The Diablofans Wiki Reaches 1,000-Article Milestone

Wooo Go wiki.

Yes I'd really like some book stuff in there. I wanted to read up on the characters a little before I started the books but I couldn't find anything on any wiki about them, which was surprising since they seem to be pretty important in the history of Sanctuary.

Re: The Diablofans Wiki Reaches 1,000-Article Milestone

Yeah, actually, now that I look, we do have a reasonable start, but not too much: http://wiki.diablofans.com/index.php/Category:Lore. There's some characters on there. I didn't know most of them existed, though. Hm...

If only I had the drive to actually do something, lol. It would be a great project for someone to consider, if someone's looking for how to contribute to the site.
