Dear Visitor, if you have some time, the wiki gladly offers you some options:

General/Ongoing

  1. Help clear the Maintenance Reports for unused/broken/wanted items!
  2. Check out and verify Did you know?#Unverified claims
  3. Look for pages that need help and report them here (e.g. unreadable color scheme, missing info)

Specific

File upload/editing

  1. Upload pictures of all town creature dwellings and town unique buildings. (Page: e.g. Template: Tower creature dwellings)
    • Fortress creature dwellings currently exist (with the exception of the Wyvern Nest)
  2. The pics for Template:Cove unique buildings are a different size from all the other towns' unique buildings. Edit them to match.
  3. Upload missing cursor pictures (Page: Cursors)
  4. The remaining wanted pages are actually missing map files.
    • What is the best way to get map files? Open up the editor and screenshot/crop? Find them somewhere online? --Legate (talk) 20:54, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
    • I don't know how Phasma was doing it but I just make screenshots in the map editor and then realign them all after. When I did that last big one I had to use cheat engine to change the zoom so that I could do it with fewer screenshots. And yes it's entirely possible there's an easier way. Possibly make use of heroesmaps.org/heroes3mapscan. –imahero 21:22, 9 December 2023 (UTC)

Backend Categorization/Maintenance

  1. Categorization: Sort "Category:Miscellaneous_pictures" into real categories.
  2. Use/sort/delete unused files and unused templates.
    • The remaining unused files relate to Factory, which will hopefully be added soon!

Page Creation/Updating

  1. Design a new main page. Save it on [[your user page/main page]] so we can see it.
  2. Breath Attack could use a diagram of how it works (specifically when attacking straight up or down)
    • I found this, but I have no idea the accuracy or completeness. --Legate (talk) 03:43, 8 December 2023 (UTC)
  3. Obstacle Penalty could use a diagram on how it works. Is it everything inside the ring wall? Does obstacle penalty disappear when the wall goes down?
  4. Map Editor could use a bunch more info.
  5. Most HotA campaign pages need work:

Community Requests

  • Will you write tips on campaign scenarios' walkthough?--212.112.111.20 17:06, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

  • Use "#*" to add a comment to an item without breaking the numbering.
  • For discussion surrounding current changes, use Changelog Chat.
