We could use some help updating the new wiki, as it's a bit of a lift transferring all of the data from the old wiki to the new wiki (while also ensuring that the data is accurate).
Valefort's outlined one area we could really use some assistance with right now:
Valefort wrote:The above was done, what is next are those pages :
In those you can find most if not all the custom spells, however they're not using the usual Template for displaying the information, like in this page :
While the info is correct for both styles the custom spells that are not using the spell Template are not automatically listed in the adequate categories, making it difficult to find the information.
There is not a lot to do for one given spell but there are around 200 of those so I would appreciate any help ! For some you probably won't find the correct icon, leave it blank and I'll eventually correct those.
People sometimes ask me what they can do to help out around here, without putting on a DM hat or learning how to code, and this is probably one of those things anyone can tackle with a little bit of time and effort! So if anyone's willing to pitch in, please do.
( If nothing else, it'll free up Valefort so he can get back to work fixing things for us, right?)
This explanation that Valefort gave to a volunteer to help with this was helpful to me, so I thought I'd share it so others have an idea of what's being asked of those who would volunteer for this mission!:

It's only copying the information on the spell from the raw text into the spell template and then the page will automagically be put in the right categories, making it easy to find (you'll notice I removed the manually added categories at the end, as they're no longer useful).
For the ones who are helping on this, if you don't find the right icon please leave it blank, that way the spells are added in the "spells with no icon" category and they'll be easy to find and fix for me
Hey im interested in helping out when I can, but I'm afraid that example still doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. I'm a bit more hands on, so maybe if I just give it a try it'll click.
however i don't know how to add missing entries like
Disguise Self: has also illusion=1 as class, adding level_illusion=1 did not work ?
Disrupting Strike: has BG as class, adding level_blackguard=1 did not work ?
|casting time=instant
How can i add missing categories?
And under bugs there are often something like this, i would guess that it could be deleted ?

Finished custom spells for Pali and ranger. Also vale, found some links they jumped over to the old wiki and I fixed them to stay on the new level wiki.
If nothing else, it'll free up Valefort so he can get back to work fixing things for us, right?)
