So, I would like to add stuff to the wiki, however I think the basic structure of the wiki needs to be examined.
Right now each data object (Each Effect, Behavior, etc.) includes all fields found it, but this often redundant because of the hierarchical nature of the data editor. Many fields have the exact same fields, but in different objects people have provided vague, or contradictory definitions. I would prefer if we modeled the wiki structure on the data editor structure, and thus have common fields be separate and have links for a given object type (Effects, Units, etc.).
I don't know if this is possible, but a standard template would be nice to follow for the new wiki (Which headers to use for Field Name, the provided tool tip, explanations of tool tip.
I agree, the layout does change from time to time. Also the redundant field thing is quite annoying. Right now though if you're planning to fill out the wiki just fill out the original fields, not the ones that are copied for each type of data object. Note. Make sure you're working on the new wiki, not the old one. Here's the link.
