Main / Community portal
This is the main page for the Wurmpedia wiki community where you can read more about the Wurmpedia projects, roadmap and also if you're looking for something to collaborate on.
To learn more about the Wurmpedia, head over to the About article where you can read up on our governance and find out how to get yourself an account.
Adding information to the wiki is only the first step; the information needs to be easy to find, understand, and improve on. Here you will find the Wurmpedia Team's roadmap to a better Wurmpedia.
If you're looking for information about Wurm Online itself, try the Main Page or complete DB.
