Questions?
PM me on the forum.

Is this the official FTB wiki?
Yes.

How can I join the wiki team?
Currently, because of PAX East, applications have been suspended. “ ” And [translator] applications were stopped because with PAX coming up I do not have the time to review applications. After PAX some changes will be made. ''Jadedcat on the forums. source''

Why can't I edit the wiki?
“ ” We tried that [opening the wiki for editing]. It went horribly. Just looking at the misinformation on the unofficial wikis lets you know that the community frequently provides inaccurate information. This is intended to be a very accurate very technical wiki. It is actually more time consuming to go through and re-read/ edit out inaccuracies then it is to just create accurate articles in the first place. Anyone can edit, all they have to do is make a mock up article that isn't already written and isnt a copy from somewhere else and submit it. I am always looking for good writers. I just insist on the info being as accurate as possible, and that the articles not read like a novel. ''Jadedcat on the forums. source'' You still can contribute to the wiki. For more details, read this post.

What have the team been working on lately?
Check out the recent changes to see what have been changed recently. All changes on the wiki, have been either done by the wiki team, or the translating team.

The random page link gives the same page
“ ” You'll have to login to make it [Random Pages] work properly, it's to prevent people from flipping through pages too quickly and to reduce server load. The guest user's cache lasts much longer than a logged in user's, so your browser loads the page from the browser cache when you load the same page. ''Jinbobo on the forums. source''
