Wiki Updates

So. I've a list of updates that need to be done to the wiki in regards to abilities specifically. Removing hidden ones, removing old ones with duplicate pages, editing ones that are locked from doing so, etc.. I'd happily do it all, but they're locked from me doing so.
Is there a "best" way of getting this done? I know, the staff envisions the wiki more as a collective from the players to upkeep and such.
Happy to email the list of links, or if there is some better solution?

I would absolutely be thrilled to see the wiki more actively updated. I appreciate your stepping up to the plate and volunteering. It would be great if we could make it a more current and useful tool for players. Let me know if you want any help with things. I hope you get permissions :)

I'd prefer if you just posted such changes here rather than emailed them, but either works. (If you do email, email support, not me directly).

A few pages are locked to editing, but are remarkably out of date. If possible, could they either be unlocked so that I can edit them, or edited by you guys to be updated?

Some pages just need to be deleted, as they deal with abilities that no longer exist, became Generalized Abilities under a different name or are meant to be hidden due to Guild.

The last few are personal taste ones... there are a few abilities that are described under others (Mage Candle description is listed under Pyromancy Apprentice for example) that I personally would delete. The information is already under the other ability, and they don't offer anything new.

On the main title page, I really really think Alchemy/Livestock should be removed from the description of the mud. It's misleading, and Clok is massively feature heavy so why reference two things don't exist yet.
While I do love the background, the black text of "Navigation", "Play" "Calenders" "Info", etc fades into it making them hard to read.
The maps for Haiban and Mistral Lake are misleading/old. and probably best removed for now until alternatives are created/made.
I'm also of the opinion that either the "General Abilities" on the left should just be changed to abilities and link to a page where it goes into the differences between Abilities/General Abilities, or a few unnecessary pages are removed (like ability) and the link instead goes to "General Abilities" instead of using a bunch of redirects.

I could easily make some updated maps for Haiban and Mistral Lake. I could even make them look all purdy if we wanted.

I might take you up on that Zahrah, I'll have a look at what editing I can do to the maps. The old ones would have to be removed, not sure I can do that, or if I can upload new. Stuff to test!
In other things... can we get a mention of Harbingers and Lorekeepers on the Guild page? It may be that their individual pages might take some time to be filled in and fleshed out, but I think at least mentioning the possibility of each of them would be a good idea. Maybe you want their abilities and such kept hidden, but neither are really "secret" in terms of existing so they shouldn't be absent from the wiki.

Definitely just let me know! I had the hardest time when I was trying to navigate Haiban on my first day because I thought HEY I'LL JUST USE THIS HANDY MAP and then I quickly realized that the map doesn't actually reflect the town. Which ended up working out. Nothing like getting lost to help you acclimate to a place!

Would it be possible to update the list of trainers and locations on the wiki for each ability like it used to be? Not for guild-specific or secret types, but for general trainers out in the open.

All the pages in Dorn's post have been deleted except the "hidden guild" ones which have been modified slightly.
