Wiki Bi-Weekly Issue 5

New week, new edits. We've had a good roll these past two weeks as well, so I'll get right on with it.

What's New?
As always it seems, we've had some additional contributions by news member Don_Guillotine, this time with some additional information added to DiabloWiki.com - Leah Leah, DiabloWiki.com - Bastion's Keep Bastion's Keep, DiabloWiki.com - Shrines Shrines in D3 and several other minor additions across various D3 articles.

Last time, new user http://diablowiki.com/Ombra" class="wiki-link">http://media-diablofans.cursecdn.com/attachments/16/736/wiki2.gif" alt="DiabloWiki.com - Ombra"/> Ombra added information to several characters in the Sin War trilogy. He's continued and added a bunch of backstory to many others now as well, including DiabloWiki.com - Mendeln Mendeln, DiabloWiki.com - Achilios Achilios, DiabloWiki.com - Arihan Arihan, DiabloWiki.com - Thonos Thonos and others.

Leaving the new game we're all excited about for just awhile, I recently completed all the regular D1 monster stats. There's as-of-yet no consolidation page for them, but you can click your way through them from the DiabloWiki.com - Knight (Diablo I) Knight (Diablo I) page. Most have moving animations, but there are some placeholder images in place that will be removed eventually. (Also, some of them have been color corrected by me because the program can't extract them properly. 2 cookies to anyone who can guess which images I've "fixied").

New member SandyTheSandman here at the forums also took the time to get to know the wiki interface and created a brand new DiabloWiki.com - Jewelry (Diablo I) Jewelry (Diablo I) page listing all rings and amulets found in Diablo I and Hellfire.

Lastly, continuing on with the guide theme from last time, we have two new guides featured in the wiki now, but written by previously mentioned Ombra: a DiabloWiki.com - FoH'adin FoH'adin and a http://diablowiki.com/Minion Necromancer" class="wiki-link">http://media-diablofans.cursecdn.com/attachments/16/736/wiki2.gif" alt="DiabloWiki.com - Minion Necromancer"/> Minion Necromancer. Check them out and be sure to get mighty inspired yourself to add to our growing repository of guides.

Article Spotlight
This week we're showcasing an old article which the staff had actually forgotten about: it's the DiabloWiki.com - Glossary (Diablo II) Glossary (Diablo II). Created in the past from a thread here at the forums, it lists all possible kinds of abbreviations that are used in Diablo II on the forums and on Battle.net itself. Since it's revival by sysop Kickin_It last week it has received a host of additions to it, some of which may be quite rarely used. If there's anything that's been missed here, feel free to add to it, and be sure to check it out if you find some weird ass letter combination in the Diablo II forums here ;)

Here are a few examples:
HR: High Rune
PDSC: Poison Damage Small Charm
SMHTPPK: Sting's Map Hack Using Town Portal Player Kill Mod.
Zodded: An Ethereal item with a Zod.

What's Next?
It seems as if Diablo I is going to continue to receive a facelift. What remains are hellfire monsters, unique monsters, levels and skills. Besides that, I'll hope for some more community additions: guides and perhaps the additional content page here and there. I'm starting to get used to this, so don't disappoint :)


Just a reminder for anyone interested... Curse is still recruiting and you should definitely apply if you think you have the skills required to join the company! A few positions are now filled but we're still looking for skilled people for the jobs below.

EDIT: That was Sixen, not me. Sneaking in those job applications in my wiki roundup...
