    So, Wynncrafters and "SoonTM" to be Gavelcrafters, I have come up with a new command that will be a great and helpful addition to Wynncraft. It's so helpful, it's better than /help. Here are the basics of what happens within this command.

    /wiki is a command that allows you to get information on a subject in Wynncraft. The way you enter the command is listed below:

    /wiki <category id> <subcategory id> <page id>

    ID's are listen numerically in lists below.

    Category would be the section to search for the different aspects. These categories would be listed as:
    1. Items & Loot
    2. Classes
    3. Commands
    4. Pets & Horses
    5. Mobs
    6. Map & Locations
    7. Quests
    8. Staff & Content Team
    For subcategories, since there are so many, I will list only the subcategories for the "Items & Loot" category:
    1. Weapons & Armor
    2. Relics & Powders
    3. Uncommon Items (would include things like Mama Zomble's Memory, pumpkin, Santa's gear, etc.)
    4. Other (would include currency, soul points, loot chests, etc.)
    In the page, I'll put the list of pages for the "Weapons & Armor" subcategory:
    1. Basic
    2. Unique
    3. Rare
    4. Legendary
    5. Special
    6. Miscellaneous
    7. Junk
    Hopefully you get the basic idea of this command. It may require a lot of work, but more in text and information, rather than intensive code and programming.

    I also suppose this would be a good idea to mention the Sparkling Wiki Cap, which is an exclusive item awarded by AbyssalMelody13. You can find more about it by clicking on the link. In this /wiki command, it can also be found in {Items & Loot > Weapons & Armor > Uncommon Items}.

    Now, a few basic questions:

    Why should this command be added?
    This command would give a more useful and reliable source to write rather than to go on the official wiki. The official wiki seems very unreliable in my opinion and never seems to be updated.

    Would this command be worth the time and space?
    Yes, this command would be worth the time and space. GM's would also be allowed to create and edit the pages within the separative categories.

    How would this affect players?
    Players would enjoy this feature, as they would be easily capable of knowing what this certain thing is and what it's there for. This would also help with things like scams, as players would be able to know what exactly and item is and what the average price is.

    I think that's it for the day. I hope you like the new /wiki command! If you want to support it, remember to vote "I support this." in the thread above! See you next time!

    or... just go to the existing wiki?
    i mean really, the wynncraft wiki and the playerbase coughs up enough information, what more do you need?!

    It's an okay idea in concept but one major problem is that nobody will be able to remember all the numbers. Even if you added a /wiki list that lists numbers, it's going to take quite a while to scroll through all of them. The wiki is fine as it is, I don't see a reason to work it into the game. Also if you do find incorrect information on the wiki you could just go in and update it yourself.

    Ooooooooor just go to the wiki.

    This would take a ridiculous time to code; And besides, all you'd really have to do is make it give you a link; but I don't really think you're fathoming how hard this would be. We still have a massive to-do page on the wiki alone and adding this too would be too overloaded.

    Plus, if we had this, then we wouldn't need a wiki anyways :/
