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)!

Task for Everyone

This is necessary to get the nav pages working. Go through all your homebrew creatures and, if they use the Creature Table template, make sure they have the parameter "|creature=CreatureName", where CreatureName is the name of the monster. If they use the Stat Block 2 template, make sure they have the parameter "|name=CreatureName". Thanks!

About the Ads

The ads on the right will go away if you log in. The "what's hot" on the left vanishes after like 10 page clicks. The three wikia links on the bottom will always be there, but they are unintrusive and interwiki links so I find it difficult to care. There's an ad on the top of the main page, but given how Wikia is offering free hosting and support I think that's an acceptable price to pay.

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) (but possibly make this cleaner)
  • Fix/remove lingering instances of DPLC and semantic wiki (assigned to: Surgo)
  • Rewrite the spell template to not use variables, as we don't have them (assigned to: Surgo) (god there has to be a better way to do this)
  • Upload anything that people still want to upload (assigned to: everyone)
  • Fix the Power and Epic Spell templates, remove last DPLC in NPC (assigned to: Surgo)
  • Preloads (assigned to: Leziad)
  • Nav pages (see Main Page talk page please!)
  • After all of the above is done, run the sanitizer bot (assigned to: Surgo)
  • Another bot -- we need to add |pagename={{subst:{{PAGENAME}}}} to any template that sets semantic properties to stop those properties being added in transclusion.
  • Redo the 3.5e Feat template for how it takes types and prerequisites to set a different semantic property for each type and prereq.
  • The Best Damn Search Engine ever -- making nav pages (mostly) obsolete! Come see the power of Semantic Wiki.

Thanks

  • Thanks to Uberfuzzy, for installing the necessary extensions that we requested as well as giving us our SRD and UA namespaces again!
