Help out

FFXIclopedia is the largest Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia known to exist. However, many articles are incomplete or otherwise need attention.
If you are looking for ways to help out, you can participate in a Collaboration.

Things to do

  • Create new articles or fix broken links based on the Wanted Pages using the appropriate templates. Entries that link only to user pages can be ignored.
  • Complete or request help on a project using our project requests page
  • Verify questionable information.
  • Confirm needed information.
  • Expand pages with missing information or articles about Notorious Monsters lacking information
  • Fix broken or double redirects.
  • Check out the list of unused images and either mark replaced images for deletion or place newer images on pages they belong to.

Fix-up projects

Collaborations

Collaboration(s) of the Month(s)

Add a short description of each mob family. See Marids as an example. It can detail overall traits such as that the mobs hit fast (rabbits, opo-opo), slow (Goobbues, Treants), hard (Goobbues, Treants), soft (Crabs), high physical defense (Crabs, Slimes), cast magic (slimes, worms), suicide (gobs, dolls), etc.

Looking for something smaller? Help to fill in the missing information in the Fireworks or Furniture articles.

Item Pages

Minor formatting tweaks.

Inclusion of the {{Weapon}} and {{Furnishing}} templates. See Template talk:Weapon and Template talk:Furnishing for usage info.

See the Image Stub page for a listing of items needing images.

Key Items

See the Key Item Image Stub for a list of key item articles needing images.

Mob Pages

Mob drop tables for a number of zones needs to be filled in. Adding information to even just one cell makes a difference!

Add Drop Rates for monsters and NMs you kill to calculate a estimable drop rate! See Template talk:Drop Rate for usage info.

Several mob pages are missing images, check out the Bestiary Image Stub for a listing!

Note from the Lead Editor

With the end of 2007 looming it seems like an appropriate time for a look back at the wiki over this past year. It was a year of significant changes and improvements to the wiki, not to mention growth. Growth in terms of articles. Growth in terms of users. Growth in terms of pageviews. Growth in terms of database size. To put it in perspective, compare November 2007 to November 2006.

November 2007 November 2006 % Change
Visits 3,168,158 1,047,924 +202.33%
Pageviews 32,963,567 12,066,591 +173.18%
Absolute Unique Visitors 423,090 176,808 +139.29%
Database Size (Words) 5.4 million 3.8 million +42.11%
Database Size (Articles) 20,000 17,000 +17.65%

In that same period of time, we have gone from the 30,000th most visited website to the 4,000th, and have become, and will continue to be, the best resource for all things FFXI related. We have partnered with Wikia, which not only allows this growth to continue, but provides us with a network focused entirely on wikis and wiki technology.

Since we began this endeavor in late 2004, we have experienced a number of bumps in the road, a few of which we experienced this past year. This is to be expected. Overall we have weathered the bumps well, and, as is apparent above, have thrived. Thanks again to everyone who has and continues to contribute to this project. I hope everyone is looking forward to a great 2008! --GAHOO t/ c 15:52, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
