The Guild Wars 2 (and 1) wiki is also hosted directly by the devs. It’s even accessible via chat command.

Best thing that happened to path of exile too, the devs provide the wiki platform for the community
Very based

The fact that in GW2 you can just type “/wiki subject” and get taken to the wiki page for subject is such an amazing and obvious command I’m surprised more games don’t do it.

Not only that but GW2 also can link items and skills in the chat so that someone else can view them. And the besteht part is that this also works with the wiki command.
So, for example, you found an item and want to know what it is and what you can use to for, just link it after /wiki and you are redirected to the full page of that item.
Unfortunately, I lately have issues with firefox in which the first wiki command somehow screws with my firefox and thinks that it needs to restart before being able to work correctly.

Goddamn that’s awesome. Had no idea after hundreds of GW2 hours.

Here’s the most useful one, IMO:
/wiki et
It takes you to the event timers page, so you can see when the world events are going to happen.

Same thing happened with minecraft.wiki too, people finally got fed up with fandom’s bullshit

That’s not the same, Mojang isn’t affiliated with the wiki at all.

osrs.wiki lets just list them all

I’m surprised the OSRS wiki isn’t mentioned more. The game itself is very community oriented as well.
