Two quick questions. I'm working on getting as many of the wizard spells as I can done 1) are the number of ranks for each skill official or is that taken from the blizzcon demo only, cause I'm debating on using them if they are only what was used for the demo and 2) If they are not, should I then not include the damage for spells since that might be subject to change? I'd like to have an answer before doing too many others. In fact I'd really like to just do all the spells for all the classes; I'm having fun going through my HD video collection and finding all of the spells and getting the stats.
It's a little bit of both actually. Who said we can't develop the most extensive diablo wiki on the net?
Considering this group's main focus is a forum, and there are multiple groups who's main focus is there wiki, I'd say that we would have a mighty handicap in that ambition. Not saying it's a good ambition to work towards though.

Diablo I was released 12 years ago, you guys are kind of late in creating a wiki.
There's already a large and established Diablo wiki:
Having multiple wiki's for the same game just makes the quality of each worse. It's best for everyone to come together and focus on just one.
As I said, I believe our wiki is less for information and more to bring everyone together. It will not however be let known if that is true however as that would ruin the entire point, thus it only makes sense that moderators, administrators, and Umero/Mockery himself would state that it is for information. (That what I see from this all at least.)

That's the spirit. I think this if fun; I just did a bunch of Wizard spells. Gives me something to do when I'm bored. Maybe I'll start doing the other classes now. I see LinkX's point though; this is mainly a group of forum goers it seems like. I can only speak for myself; but I enjoy giving something back to this awesome community. We all share the same passion, Diablo, so why not?

I suggest you head over to the wiki forum to keep questions organized.
However, since we do not have any other info to say otherwise atm, I think you can include the damage for now. If it does change, then we'll just change the article. The beauty if a wiki, it's so adaptable.

Any chance we could get some hints on this little nugget or is it all hush-hush?

Honestly, do you think anyone of us could ever muster the energy needed to run a project like this if everything we did and every ounce of work we put into it would be nothing more than an empty charade to keep up appearances and make people think we worked? I know I couldn't.
I think you're way too cynical. However you could probably call us too optimistic instead and change your idea of us from scheming manipulators to ihopeful moderators
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.

No, not one of you could muster the energy to do this, but combined efforts could make it possible as well as plausible.
(And this is my optimistic side, my pessimistic side or cynical side would make everyone weep. :D)
LinkX, you pay too little attention to the human spirit, too much to labels and specialization. I saw horrible results of specialization and great results of generalization (and vice versa). You never know. This Wiki may be constructed different. People from the forum may end up being great supporters. How much people are needed for a good Wiki? Not that many. They're just hard to find. Who said we don't have them?
