Today we are unveiling XIVWiki.com, a Zam owned wiki where you guys can submit your own guides and other information and help everyone out!

To commemorate the wiki and to get people involved, Zam is sponsoring a contest to get people helping.

Welcome to the latest addition to ZAM's Final Fantasy XIV community, XIVwiki.com! To celebrate the site's launch, we're hosting a giveaway that will score our top wiki contributors one of five $20 Amazon gift cards!
All you have to do is:
Create an account
Create and edit pages on the wiki
????
You know how this goes..
The top contributors will be determined by the quality of the work that is done on the wiki, not the quantity! The giveaway starts Friday, August 23rd, 2013 at noon PDT and ends at 8:59pm PDT Friday, August 30th, 2013. The lucky wiki-nauts will be announced and notified the following week. Sooooo, welcome to XIVwiki and good luck!

The full details of the contest are here.

Do we have to create another account or can we use the one we have here?

Unfortunately account syncing is not ready yet, if you don't use the same handle that you do here then let me know.

Also if you need help with Wiki syntax there is a help page or we use mediawiki syntax.

Update: looks like we're having issues with the Twitter sign in at the moment, I have reported the issue and the developers are taking a look.

Try your best! The content is so much more important than the wikicode. If you do need help, check out the wiki Help page we made!

Yup, that's intentional and normal in mediawiki. :D Example elsewhere: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki

I'm sure this is obvious but XIVDB Tooltips work in the wiki as well.
