How do I add DLC info to the wiki? - Editing & Tools

#1 Posted by san_salvador (107 posts) - 11 months, 15 days ago

I just have seen that the Dragon's Dogma page is missing the DLC information. I want to add that, but there is no button to do so. What am I doing wrong?

Oh, and something slightly unrelated: Is there a guide what those levels I get (beeing lvl 7 right now) even mean? Do they serve any purpose at all? I couldn't find a page or a Faq that explains that.

General Site FAQ of course the first stop, under the Help tab, in case you didn't check. Not much help in this case.

Wiki FAQ probably more helpful, you can dig deep on that one if you like.

First question: Searching the forums (search: Add DLC), according to one LordAndrew, 5000 wikipoints are needed. Though, can't find anything official.

Second question: Level are associated with the quest system of the site, which are basically achievements/trophies for using the site. I'm not surprised if you missed that, especially if you weren't around for that site update.

Check out the Quests forums for stuff about that.

Trying to find answers really pointed out two things to me: (1) while the editing tools are mostly intuitive, information like this is kinda absent; (2) Not being able to search through News articles is a little bit of a bummer.

Thanks for your effort, I will dig through that.

And yes, a very basic, noob friendly introduction site would be very handy. Just to explain things like the basic concept, leveling and stuff like that.

@san_salvador: @NotSoSneakyGuy: Looks like I misremembered. It's actually 1000 points.

@snide said:

Also should note that only 1000+ scoring users can actually add new DLCs to the database.

I think the button to add DLC won't show up until that point. Since you have no points, you have no way of adding DLC. This is different from editing or adding other types of content, which merely have to go through moderation.

I'm pretty sure it's 5,000. I think I was over 1,000 when I ran into the same issue. What you can do is just log a request for someone with more points to do it for you, that's what I ended up doing. Now I'm just able to add DLC with zero problems, though.
