Some Pages That Could Use Editing

[Chaos he/him]

I know some people have asked where to start editing the wiki, and it just occurred to me, why not look on the list of Popular pages by views and get the ones that people look at the most to be a lot better?

The Shard article is pretty good (I wonder who wrote that one? ), but since Alloy there is information that isn't in there yet.

More importantly, Hoid, Cosmere, and Adonalsium are awful articles--the Adonalsium one less so, but man, they all need serious revision. Basically, if there's information that you know on a topic that isn't in the article, then it ought to be in that article. These are the articles that people come to the wiki for the most. You Google cosmere, and our wiki article on the subject is the first result. They can be a lot better.

I'm kind of surprised that all the Shards have so many views, but again, people predominantly come to the wiki because they are like "What? Shards? What are those? The worlds are connected?" I feel that these Shard articles can have more content as well.

By the way, cogent theories on these cosmere topics are allowed, as long as you put up the {{theory}} disclaimer, like I did at the end of the Shard article. As these topics involve much speculation, it's better to have well-based speculation in an article and inform some people about things than have an empty article.

So, if you want a very critical thing to edit on the wiki, looking at that list and improving the ones people view the most may be a good way of doing that.

Another way of finding things to edit is to click Random Page endlessly, crying at the state of how many stubs there are, and expanding them into something a lot more beefy.

Hope this helps, if you were looking for some guidance.

The Unpublished Works article is also pretty spare, and bad, but that one might require original knowledge that a newer editor may not know right off the bat.

EDIT: Also, the chronology article is borderline unreadable, and also wrong given that Alloy is now concurrent with Way of Kings.

I agree with everything Eric has said, and have gone ahead and have added a small list of links to other lists that you can visit to find articles that need contributions.

This Aon article needs fixing. I don't know how to get rid of the picture there and put this one in . and I'm pretty sure that the curve = coast and top = mountains, but I might be wrong so I didn't fix it.

Nope, it is the other way around. Do you have your map of Elantris? You can kind of manually see the Aon. The straight coast line, the curved mountains, and than the dot where the Lake is.
