This page is a good idea, but we need to consider how it fits in with regard to Server Types, Astronomy and geography and Tutorials. - Dashiva 09:16, 26 September 2008 (CDT)


A good idea - I agree, but heavily redundant when considered with other information present on the wiki. Seems to confuse more than it helps, though - Ephemeral 04:01, 27 September 2008 (CDT)

My reasoning was that I had found no obvious intro to how the server structures work and remember being baffled for months about exactly what Wild was and how one got there.
The Server Types page is not really what you would call a bite sized overview of the general Wurm server structure from a player perspective, at least not for the newer player that I was aiming to help understand the game more quickly.
Maybe my page should link to the other via a couple of brief paragraphs? I have certainly found the map page incredibly useful and think it was an overight not to link to it.

For a start, I think it would be good to write an overall paragraph about how the world looks, and how to navigate between continents. Under each server's heading, list the settlement categories and one or two prominent maps. Rather than write about the technicalities of each server, link to Server Types. Instead write about the overall envirionment for the server, why people go there, etc. Maybe add some travel hints? - Dashiva 04:45, 28 September 2008 (CDT)
I can give that a shot. I may need some help - but I will try reorganise what I have written along those lines and add what I can think of. I'll probably need some help on some of it though - I am not widely travelled as a player.
