SotAWiki: Lots of Updates

I don’t know if many of you regularly frequent SotAWiki, the Shroud of the Avatar wiki…but if you weren’t aware, it is hosted by the Ultima Codex, and both Fenyx4 and Browncoat Jayson (whom I trust you all are familiar with) help maintain it.

Anyhow, it has seen some significant updates recently:

The homepage updates this week include Starr Long as the featured developer and the PaxLair “Isle of Wonder” maze by the amazing <4b> guild is featured video.  Both can be seen by visiting the main page of SotAwiki.net.

First: we fully expose our database with semantic queries and allow anyone (like the crafting spreadsheet by Isycle and Style and other websites) to do quierries on any of the data from the wiki.  This has been a growth pain because everything needed to move into a quierrable format while still being fairly simple for the average person to understand.  Fenyx4 and Browncoat Jayson have done 90% of the adjusting of templates and should be applauded for their efforts.

Isycle has migrated his efforts from updating his spreadsheet into updating the wiki so everyone can benefit from his work via the api.  Thank you for keeping so many crafting recipes updated and adding so many new ones Isycle!

Alianin has been making every effort to keep things organized and has completely restructured the categories a dozen times so when you click on that sword you can easily work your way back up the chain to similar items via the categories on the bottom of the pages.

I personally have been making efforts to keep the information on the wiki… wikified and accurate. I’ve been removing pages that are incorrectly made, renaming things to match their in-game names, and correcting errors that people make accidentally. I’m the hand that guides the new wiki editors and I do so with much love and appreciation. The work that each of you bring to the wiki makes my life, and the next visitors life, so much easier and enriches us with the information we’re looking for.

And I suppose I own Duke Violation, the author of the above, a note of thanks for giving the Ultima Codex’s Patreon campaign.
