Guild Wars 2 Wiki:Projects/On Wiki of Gold

Donors

Essence of Gold.png

Prior to April 2017, this project was supported entirely by players donating gold. Though player donations are no longer required, they were invaluable in us getting started. You can see a list of who contributed here.

Players (1934/1934 distributed)
ArenaNet (18671 distributed)

On Wiki of Gold is a player-run wiki improvement project supported by ArenaNet with in-game gold that gets awarded to wiki editors for contributing to any article selected below. (You can read the Contribution Terms here. Note that all contributors to this project have to abide by these Contribution Terms and all contributing edits have to be done with a wiki account, meaning anonymous edits are disqualified.)

Contributions to this project are done via edits to articles that are in "Sets" listed below on this project page. Two articles that could use improvement are selected for each Set by Delsea. Make a helpful, contributing edit to either article to be mailed 10 in Guild Wars 2. Every person can get that 10 gold once per Set. Multiple Sets run consecutively, and you can get the 10 gold for each Set you contribute to.

How to participate: Make your contribution to an article that is in a Set listed below on this project page and then sign this page you're reading right now with the account name or character name where you would like the gold to be sent. You can add a brief description of what you added or changed to make your contribution easier to verify.

Edits must be accurate, clear, coherent, relevant to the topic, and improve the article. The edits can be either small or large. However, for the purposes of this project, making a few minor punctuation alterations is not substantial enough. From Set 1001 onwards, you may alternatively edit any article the focused article directly links to. If you do, please [[wikilink]] it when you sign your name to make your contribution easier to verify.

This project is organised by Delsea (Delsea.2576), and it's officially supported by ArenaNet (under the following Contribution Terms). If you happen to find this page while browsing the wiki, please feel free to participate. If you have any questions or suggestions for future articles to focus, please make a comment on the discussion page. All are welcome, everyone from wiki veterans to complete newcomers!

Accumulated Gems

Prior to Set 1300, the contribution incentive was 2 gold + 20 Gems, whereas now it's 10 gold. You can read more about this improvement here. But 20 gems is too few to be able to send someone, so for a while, the players on this list will be on the previous system until they reach a multiple of 400 gems. At that time, I can send them a code for 400 gems and move them over to the new method. Gems for this project were supplied by the following sources:

Delsea (27,960 distributed)
ArenaNet (90,513/78,100+ distributed)

The Wikipedia article for Guild Wars 2 or any of its expansions in any language you can speak (I will do my best to verify your edits. Please be specific about what you added. Keep in mind that Wikipedia has its own editing guidelines.)
- ~~Melina.6734~~ — Thank you for updating articles from the French-language version of Wikipedia. I believe you will be able to get credit for these on the French version of On Wiki of Gold. Set 1524 of the English version is seeking contributions to Wikipedia, not the Guild Wars 2 Wiki. I acknowledge that this is unusual.

For the DR race, you expanded the mounted and on foot walkthroughs and revised the recommended skill list.

- Vysnaite.4812 — Approved for gold distribution. Thanks for listing thirty-three new items and adding the four promo images and a gallery for the images of other added items.

Guild Chat - Episode 42 (A series of enjoyable dev interviews that do not yet have a complete transcript. If you're not at the game that can play Guild Wars 2 right now, editing articles like these by continuing the transcription or uploading screencaps of things shown can be a great way to contribute to this Set and the wiki too. The video for this episode is here.)
- (sign your account name here)

Set 1548 — February 12, 2025 onward[edit]

Game updates/2025-02-11 (A large number of things changed with this update. What was overlooked by the notes that could be included in the Guild Wars 2 Wiki Notes section?)
- Vysnaite.4812 — Approved for gold distribution. Thanks for noting the five homestead decorations added and a note for the one that was fixed. Thank you also for making forty-one edits to directly-linked Mesmer skill and trait articles based on the skill balance patch.
- (sign your account name here)

Rejuvenating Tides or Rejuvenating Tides (underwater) (This skill was updated today. Also, what does this skill look like when used? A screenshot would help players identify it on the battlefield.)
- (sign your account name here)

Set 1549 — February 14, 2025 onward[edit]

Imperial Everbloom weapon skins (This article could benefit from a one-sentence description of the visual theme of these weapons - good for finding in a text search. It also might be worth linking to the Imperial Everbloom, which is an item that predates the weapon set.)
- Vysnaite.4812 — Approved for gold distribution. Thanks for taking preview screenshots for all seventeen of these! I want them all! I particularly like the focus and the torch.
- (sign your account name here)

Help the kodan gather foraged plants and animal meat (Vysnaite did a lot of research last month of each of these six events and their different dialogue, much of which is in the article, with more info on the discussion page. There are still a few gaps to fill if anyone would like to continue this work.)
- (sign your account name here)

Set 1550 — February 17, 2025 onward[edit]

Schematic: Airship Defense (What kinds of attacks/damage does this display in the Combat Log? Also, this screenshot depicts the airship but does not do a good job of showing the bombardment.)
