Hi CCP

You know this, the playerbase knows this, aliens in far off solarsystems knows this:
Your wiki is so out of date.

Soon 1990 will call and ask for it back Big smile

I'm talking mostly about the item database on the wiki.

For reference:

Microwarpdrives Page on the Wiki

How long has it been since you changed 1, 10, 100 mwd to 5, 50, 500?

I think it was before 2013 atleast.

How come Wiki is not updated yet?
The answer:

  1. You have better things to do.
  2. The regular users are not allowed to change item descriptions.


Suggested resolution to the problem are the following:

  • Adjust the wiki.eve-online.com so that it fetches item information from the current eve-online version on TQ.
  • Let a few screened dedicated players update the wiki for you. Payment in ISK should do. Lol
  • Delete the item database on wiki.eve-online.com with the info that all future inquiries about items should be done ingame.

Ps. I write text very straightforward. Sometimes it makes me sound angry. I would like do disclaim that I'm not angry, sad, emotional about the wiki containing faulty data. But as a Techie data should be correct or deleted since it serves no purpose.

CCP Fozzie was surprised of how many worthless and excess ECCM modules there were. Id say they first have to learn what they have before they can update the wiki Roll

I'd still say, if you havent updated something in the last 3 years, will you make any updates in the coming 3 years?

The Wiki is not using it's purpose in it's current state.
