How to Help [e]
You can help with Sections!

DiabloWiki is a great resource for anyone that is in the slightest interested in the Diablo Universe, but it all boils down to members of the community coming together and pitching in to keep it up to date and full of information. You can make a difference even if you use English as a second language or have very limited time to help. In some cases, just hanging around on the discussions in the wiki is just as useful as adding content.

Please help out in the wiki by either filling out Wanted Pages (pages people would like made) and Incomplete Pages (also known as "Stubs"). You can also check out the Community Portal which holds links to some of the main current projects.

Your Account
Your account will work on both the Diablo 2 and Diablo 3 wikis here at DiabloWiki, if you sign up on one of them. If you have an account on any other Diablo site, such as Diii.net, you will not automatically be able to use that username; you will have to sign up for DiabloWiki separately.

Getting help
When you have signed up, this is how you get help:

  • Our homegrown Help section includes almost anything you would like to know.
  • The Wiki Markup page is great if it's a specific piece of "wiki code" you need.
  • The FAQ answers a lot of further questions.
  • The Community Portal Discussion is a good place to ask questions to be answered by the community.
  • The DiabloWiki Support Forum can also be used to get help from sysops and members.
  • If all else fails, or you just want to talk to someone, ask Leord or Flux, as they are here to help those who are here to help!
