Welcome to the Dungeons and Dragons wiki!

The Dungeons and Dragons wiki is dedicated to the creation and dissemination of homebrew material created for all editions of Dungeons and Dragons. Anyone can jump in and create their own pages with easy-to-use preloads that automatically format and categorize pages.

Unlike other Dungeons and Dragons wikis, this wiki is centered around aggressive quality control. On this wiki, you can find material that you can use in your campaigns without balance concerns. To that end we attempt to tag each page with an appropriate balance point; if no balance point is given, it is implied to follow the Same Game test (link forthcoming).

Feel free to join our active community in our chat room (link forthcoming)!

We are currently resolving license issues involving the GFDL 1.2.

Tasks

  • Fix the table problems (assigned to: Surgo) (the rest of the stuff is handled by the sanitizer bot)
  • Fix the old use of "foreach" in the statblock tables (assigned to: Surgo)
  • Fix/remove lingering instances of DPLC and semantic wiki (assigned to: Surgo)
  • Upload anything that people still want to upload (assigned to: everyone)
  • Upload nav pages and preloads, sanitizing them from DnD to 3.5e (unassigned)
  • Create new nav pages for feats, possibly using semantic mediawiki to autogenerate the pages (unassigned)
  • After all of the above is done, run the sanitizer bot (assigned to: Surgo)
    • Old anchor method -> new anchor method
    • DnD -> 3.5e (including categories)
    • Any lingering "SRD: X" links to "SRD:X"
    • Rename old usernames to new usernames where needed
    • Striped d20 tables -> new zebra tables
  • Grand opening of the wiki!

News

  • One of the three major tables has been properly implemented, I hope to have the other two done tomorrow. That should complete the formatting issues. Surgo 08:16, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
  • The SRD and UA should be entirely updated, along with all our members' homebrew stuff that was any good at all. I'm still fixing some CSS so the tables all display properly (that's the primary cause of funkiness). When that is done, I'll get all the preload and nav pages up and we'll be ready to go and make new content. Surgo 06:57, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
  • We just migrated here from an old wiki, so stuff is currently going to look a little funky until we have all the content uploaded, extensions installed, and a custom skin made. Be patient! Surgo 16:08, 11 August 2009 (UTC)
  • I'll keep this updated, since no one else did it before they went to bed. Right now, parts of both UA and the SRD are up. From what I can tell and what the Surgmeister has said, not all of the UA and SRD was exported when he did the categorical exports from the wiki. Major pages are missing, we know, and we're working on breaking down the files to upload them better. It will be a lengthy process of identifying which pages weren't exported and then getting them exported and subsequently imported.
