The update of 7 Days To Die to version A13 has brought a lot of changes to the game that need to be documented and unfortunately, a lot of the articles on this wiki are already very dated.
This project page was created to act as a central organization point for cleaning up and updating pages to reflect the current state of the game.
Goal[]
The overall goal is, of course, to get the critical pages up-to-date so that new players can find useful information. That means creating new pages with new features and updating old pages with new information, such as updated recipes, etc.
Tasks For Anyone[]
If you're new to wikis or just don't have a lot of experience editing them at a deep level, no problem. You can still help in the following ways:
- Editing for content: Correct grammar. Add information on pages, etc. All these pages need work: Category:Cleanup
- Add screenshots and images for clarity. Good with images? A lot need updating!
- Mark pages for
{{Cleanup}}(see section below) - Mark stubs by placing the
{{Stub}}tag at the top of the page. - Use the item's discussion page to start talking about items and their relevance in context of the current version of the game.
- Mark items removed from the game by placing the
{{Removed}}tag at the top of the page. - Expand the following pages for the new User Interface:
As you work through pages and correct problems, if the page has one of the tags mentioned above and you've fixed the problem, feel free to remove the tag.
Goal for March: Adding Recipe Template[]
| Add The Recipe |
|---|
 Green Drawer

There are a number of craft-able items that need to have the Template:Recipe added in order for certain lists to populate correctly.
The table to the right lists five random articles of craft-able items that need the Template:Recipe added. In the section below is an example of how to replace an old recipe with the new one.
If the item is in the list but is not craft-able, then in the infobox, the parameter ob_craft = 1 is improperly set and should be set to ob_craft = 0.
Example[]
Below is how Duct Tape originally listed the required items:
==Crafting==
To craft {{PAGENAME}} you will require these items.
: [[File:Glue.png|64px|middle|link=Glue]]x1[[Glue]]
: [[File:Cloth.png|64px|middle|link=Cloth Fragment]]x1[[Cloth Fragment]]
And this is the correct usage of Template:Recipe
==Crafting==
===Required Items===
{{Recipe
|image1=Glue.png | linkname1=Glue | itemcount1=1
|image2=Cloth.png | linkname2=Cloth | itemcount2=1
}}
Tagging Pages for Cleanup[]
I've also created the Template:Cleanup to use for article management. If you find an article that needs cleaned up and you don't have time or the expertise, you can tag it to bring it to the attention of others. At it's simplest, you can add {{Cleanup}} at the top of the page to tag it, but that's not completely helpful. Better yet, you can give a reason, using {{Cleanup|Reason=Your reason}}. Additionally, you can use the item's talk page to spark a conversation about why the page needs attention.
Tagged pages are added to the Category:Cleanup, making them easy to identify and address.
New or Updated Icons[]
I have received updated icons from the Pimps. The icon set isn't all-inclusive, unfortunately, and is missing all perks/skills icons as well as some older icons that we need, such as the icon for older doors. However, if you find a page that has an outdated or improperly-formatted icon, please drop a link to it here and I'll see if there is a better icon in the set provided.
