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.

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. Please see Dungeons and Dragons Wiki:Balance Points for a more complete explanation of our balance points; if no balance point is given, it is considered to follow the Same Game Test.

Anyone can jump in and create their own pages with easy-to-use preloads that automatically format and categorize pages. To maintain our standard of quality, however, we ask that users keep works in progress in user sandboxes and only place completed works in the main navigation areas. To see a list of articles that the author would like input on, feel free to check out our Help Wanted page. Please see Dungeons and Dragons Wiki:Article Requirements for further information on these policies, as well as how to create sandbox pages and other such explanations.

If you have any questions about these policies, or would just like to meet and chat with other wiki users, please join our active community in our chat room!

Chat

After trying out a few options, we have settled on Mibbit. If you have any trouble with the chat whatsoever, put a comment on User Talk:Surgo and I will help you to the best of my ability. Surgo 02:13, September 6, 2009 (UTC)

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 (in order of probable completion)

  • Fix the 3.5 spells / psionic power nav pages.
  • Fix the 3.5 equipment nav pages, and rethink the equipment categorizations in general.
  • Finish up the "balance tags" -- what needs to be done now is 4e and then putting them on the pages. Some people like Ghostwheel have been helpfully putting balance tags on many pages!
  • Find the missing powersFind every missing SRD page and add them to the wikia via any mean you deem necessary.

News

  • A vote has begun on a proposal for the rules to govern the Ratings Committee. --DanielDraco 23:23, October 5, 2009 (UTC)
  • Semantic MediaWiki is getting fixed (really just reconfigured) sometime this week. Hurray! Surgo 14:09, September 5, 2009 (UTC)
  • There's a problem with our version of Semantic MediaWiki (we think) that's causing a lot of issues. Once that is fixed we should be able to open. Surgo 03:12, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
