DnDWiki:Verification

Wiki DnD in Ua is a fan wiki for a video game. That means there's a lot of information to catalog and a lot of different hands touching a lot of different wiki pages.

It also means citing external sources for in-game information is not necessary; the game itself is our source. That said, we like to maintain a reasonably high level of accuracy in the information committed to each page.

To communicate to readers that a piece of information may not be 100% accurate, and to help other wiki editors know something needs attention, please use the {{Verify}} template (template page here: Template:Verify) when you're not sure about a piece of information. This is more helpful than omitting the information or writing the dreaded 'I think' (see the Style Guide for more info on this and other guidelines for writing articles).

Marking Unverified Information

Insert the {{Verify}} template to mark some information as needing verification by other readers or wiki editors.

Doing so will insert a link to this page and update the list of Pages Needing Verification.

Verifying Information and Cleaning Up

The ideal way to verify information is to check/test it for yourself in-game on the latest patch, but this isn't always necessary. In a pinch, videos and streams from other players can help. Do be wary of any installed mods.

Once you've verified the information and made any necessary edits, remove the {{Verify}} template from the page in question.
