Welcome to StrategyWiki!

Hello VanishingWraith! Welcome to StrategyWiki. Thank you for your contributions. If you have any questions, just contact a sysop through their talk page or post on the staff lounge, and they'd be happy to help. If you need help editing, check the StrategyWiki Guide or visit the Discord server to chat. On the other hand, if you have ideas for StrategyWiki, bring them up on the staff lounge as well.

Pre-load buttons

The pre-load buttons.

In order to keep pages on the wiki neat and uniform, we employ certain formatting and templates to help us accomplish this. When creating a new page, please use one of the pre-load buttons located above the edit text box (e.g. click on "Guide page" to add {{Header Nav}} to the top and {{Footer Nav}} to the bottom), which will insert the needed templates and formatting for you. These templates are very handy because they include the templates that are required for each page type. If you are unsure about how to use them, or what pages to use them on, please let me know. Thanks for keeping the wiki organized! — Procyon 20:14, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

Witchaven

Thanks for bringing the guide over to StrategyWiki! I saw on the main page it mentioned that the original author had granted permission to host the guide. The page mentioned that it's a "good idea to start your own preservation archive". Have they considered [requesting archive.org archive them? -- Prod (talk) 01:08, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

I believe some of the things have been sent to archive.org, but I'm not sure if all of them have. -- VanishingWraith (talk) 02:01, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

I requested the main page be archived just now so that the StrategyWiki permission would be saved and linked it on Talk:Witchaven. Are there any other guides that need to be brought over? -- Prod (talk) 02:22, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
Parts of the Mageslayer and Abuse sections may be suitable for inclusion as well, though those aren't full walkthroughs, more item lists/cheats/general hints. -- VanishingWraith (talk) 02:40, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

I've gone through whatever content I could on the site, and brought over whatever was possible for MageSlayer and Abuse. I'll be going through Heretic/Hexen sections to see if we're missing anything, and then bring over the images for Witchaven. -- Prod (talk) 04:23, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

Thank you, that will save me a bunch of work. -- VanishingWraith (talk) 14:57, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

The Heretic/Hexen pages pointed to the Doom Wiki, so I haven't brought any of that content here. I did bring over all the images for Witchaven, and filled in Witchaven/Level 13. I think the following things are still pending:

  • [1] Intro story goes to Witchaven/Walkthrough (someone with game knowledge needed to avoid spoilers)
  • [2] Characters goes to Witchaven/Characters (someone with game knowledge needed to avoid spoilers)
  • [3] Goes to Witchaven/Gameplay. I'll try to do this page soon. It could use additional content on how the game works at a high level, this stuff is pretty detailed.

Do you feel there's anything else that needs to be done for this guide before moving on to Witchaven II? -- Prod (talk) 04:07, 17 July 2022 (UTC)
