The list format doesn't seem to work with the Diablo II item pages. I know the data is there somewhere, since I can display it in the picture-box format used within the current D2 items pages, but I can't figure out how to use that data in the creation of a table similar to what's been done for the D3 pages. What am I missing?
The list template is only designed for D3 items, since the parameters and variables for the two games have been entered in two different formats into the wiki. It would require designing a new template in order to display D2 items in lists.
While that item list template can theoretically be made rather easily, in order for that to happen we first need to adjust ALL D2 item pages, since right now the data is already entered into an infobox format there, as opposed to D3 items which are just standalone parameter lists that can be used by different templates (like an infobox or a list).
Since that would be stupid to do manually we'll have to get ApocBot, Apoc's nice little script, to do a little prepwork for us before we start with this.
PlugY for Diablo II allows you to reset skills and stats, transfer items between characters in singleplayer, obtain all ladder runewords and do all Uberquests while offline. It is the only way to do all of the above. Please use it.

Right now we're making information in categories available in much better ways: lists!
Making these pages are quite simple, and if any first time editors want to take a shot at helping out, don't hesitate. Here's a quick ste-by-step guide on how to do it. If in doubt, ask here or look at the general Help page
0. Have an account (must be at least four days old in order to create pages).
2. Copy format but change all the chest armor names to whatever list you're going to create. Remember to also switch the text at the very top and very bottom. Put it on another page with the appropriate name, like "Axe List" or "Mighty Weapon List"
3. Create a new navbox similar to the one for chest armor: Example
4. The navbox is the little thing at the bottom of the chest armor page that says {{Chest Armor (Diablo III)}}. That thing needs to be on all individual item pages as well, but with Chest Armor replaces with whatever item type is being edited. So once the list page is done, each item page also has to be edited.
5. Profit!
These are the pages that still need to be filled out. Anyone is free to whack away Axes Bows Ceremonial Knives Crossbows Daggers Daibos Fist Weapons Hand Crossbows Maces Mighty Weapons Polearms Spears Swords Wands

I also made a new Template:Equipment Navbox for all these navboxes to use. Nothing major but it keeps the copy&pasting down
