    Hello everyone,

    We will be starting up our own public wiki for Skyblock and we are looking for contributors!

    The Skyblock Wiki will serve as an ultimate resource for the original singleplayer maps and the official multiplayer servers, offering comprehensive guides and in-depth information on our unique game features.

    Currently, much of the information about our maps and servers is scattered across numerous forum posts (or other websites in regards to the maps), requiring users to search or be directed to specific threads. The wiki will serve as a centralized hub, where players can easily access accurate and up-to-date information, like custom recipes or innovative cobblestone generators, without needing to comb through the forums to find the right post.

    The wiki is a community-driven project and will eventually be open for editing by all players with a valid forums account. For now, however, we're starting with an application process for those who are well-versed in the maps and/or servers and would like to get involved at the start.

    If you are interested, please fill out the application form and reply to this thread.

    Application Form:
    IGN:
    Discord:
    Expertise: (Singleplayer/Multiplayer - choose one or both)
    Experience with MediaWiki/WikiPedia: (Yes/No/Both)
    Topics of Interest: (describe what you'd like to contribute)

    Criteria:
    1. Please ensure your Skyblock Forums account is linked to your Minecraft account. To do this, simply type "/forums link" while in-game.
    2. Make sure to be a part of our Discord server to gain access to the wiki channel if accepted.

    Note:
    - The platform we will be using is called MediaWiki and operates similar to WikiPedia.
    - Ideas and suggestions about the wiki are still welcomed on this thread if you don't want to contribute.

    Thank you to everyone interested, we're excited to see the Skyblock Wiki come to life with your help!

    This is huge, and a step in the right direction. Skyblock could really use a wiki.
    There is a lot experienced players have still yet to learn, especially the differences of both servers.
    But most importantly, this is MASSIVE for any new player who is actually wanting to get real data.

    - All the Collectable/Rare information, listed and able to be searched up, with information, dates and average prices, old craft's.
    - Economy details, farm data, costs, TPS specific data, everything, all in one place. Lots of numbers potentially.
    - Map Art creation for new players, this could be the go-to place to learn. I have taught a handful of players how to start creating map arts, and some have earned thousands of grass doing so. I am excited for the potential.
    - Maybe eventually be able to search up Player Names/Usernames, old or new. Player information, join date, time spent on server, levels, use a plugin like /pi and implement it into the wiki. Maybe island information/shops, and pictures of islands one day (if added by another user).
    - Able to search every single item, what its used for, how to make, special crafts, etc.
    - All different types of farms that work on the server, and produce items you can sell, and build tutorials linked.
    - So much more opportunities, and data. B)


    Specific updates could change the wiki a lot as well. (If we get updates *cough* even a few small updates/fixes)
    Thank you Crew.

    this is a great idea, I cant wait to see what comes of it. Having some transparency for some mechanics of the server will be a great thing.

    There are plans regarding this, but not to go onto a wiki. (Yes, officially)

    given that the whois for skyblock.wiki looks very similar to other skyblock domains, I have a feeling I know what it might be

    We are starting to give out roles so please ensure if you are serious about the wiki that you have filled out the information with the correct format so Crew has all the information he needs :)

    For those who currently have the role on the discord please stay tuned for updates.
    Thank you everyone :)
