Not quite 9000 yet, but 2000 articles is a pretty big milestone in the history of Diablo Wiki. The 2000 mark has just been reached in the Diablo 1+2 & Diablo 3 Wiki.
It all started off with what was basically a conversion of the old Diabloii.net information pages (which made up the biggest Diablo 2 resource on the net compiled since 1997) to Wiki format in 2006, and launched DiabloWiki.net in April 2008. Many pages are still adapted to the old html format, with very long pages packed with useful content, rather than the numerous interlinking articles that usually define a wiki. The biggest Diablo resource on the web has been passed over to a format everyone can help out with!
Another milestone was in June the same year, when the Diablo 2 wiki got company with the Diablo 3 section, covering everything related to Diablo 3 as well as finalising the lore pages.
If you're curious what people have been most interested in over the years, check out the top-10 most popular articles for each wiki. As you can see, runes are always popular:
Don't forget you easily can reference loads of Diablo information through the use of Wiki BBCode! Just wrap the related word, and it will be a wiki link to the article with the same name. It works in the news comments as well. If a page is missing, just create it as a stub, a full article, or make a request for one of the other editors to make it in the Diablo Wiki Forum.
However, it's likely the page already exists, in which case a redirect will make sure all versions of the title of the article are covered.
For making DiabloWiki what it is, the prime source of information for Diablo 1, 2 & 3, and for reaching the 2000 article mark, a heartfelt THANK YOU goes out to:
