Article requests

  • Request: v50's been out for nearly a year now and there is still no page on this wiki detailing what the new granular Difficulty settings do. Do we even know what they do? From what I can gather, Off stops outside enemies from entering the map (but still allows Intrigue and wildlife treated as dangerous to occur), Normal is as per usual, and Hard ensures a nonstop stream of Fun will relentlessly assault your fort, but other than that, I've no clue. CobaltNinja (talk) 19:20, 15 October 2023 (UTC)
  • Request: Unusual volcanic wall - Right now there's a small section for this new (added in v50) structure/formation under the page for obsidian but I think it's notable/complex enough for its own page KM942 (talk) 03:50, 7 January 2023 (UTC)
  • Request: I would like to upload a few pictures (that I made and edited for clarity) to demonstrate a modular Minecart thumper design. 2Bob (talk) 15:23, 2 January 2023 (UTC)2Bob
  • request: DF2014:Altar 35.191.8.17 00:11, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
    • Done. DF also refers to these as "offering place"s in the b menu, but I didn't see existing pages where either of these were mentioned from a quick search. —Lethosor (talk) 00:03, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
  • Request: I would like to create DF2014:Messenger specifically with the information that they are assigned on the locations screen Keupo (talk) 06:56, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
    • You already have permission to do this since you've made 3 edits now. —Lethosor (talk) 17:31, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
  • DF2014:Citizenship — here's one article on a new mechanic not currently covered by the wiki, we most definitely need to work on this. — 94.19.200.59 20:39, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
  • Masterwork:Titanite: I can't find any information about Masterwork's Titanite, either from the wiki or Google. After mining some, I can only cut it like gems. Also need a to-do for this: build a crucible to determine if Masterwork:Titanium can be extracted from titanite. 1 Jan 2016
  • DF2014:Giant firefly: Just found one in my latest save of 0.42.05, realized a page didn't exist. ArcaneMusic (talk) 22:07, 19 January 2016 (UTC)
    • I just added a list of all the new creatures (probably contains some errors) on the talk pages of the graphic set and creature pages. Most of those probably need to be added as new pages too. In addition the page Back_bear_man should be deleted (mistyped b-L-ack bear man). In the future, it would be nice to have a script that simply goes through the creature raws and suggests new pages to be created for missing creature entries. CLA (talk) 15:12, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
      • The admins have bots that can create the pages automatically. Part of the hold-up is that the wiki's raws haven't been updated, so new creature pages aren't able to "autofill" with the appropriate details from the raws (and we prefer not to enter all that information manually).--Loci (talk) 20:38, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
  • Masterwork:Drake The article is blank. Since these are a domestic animal that players can grab on embark, there should be some information about them for people new to the mod. Apollo Densin (talk) 02:00, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
    • Done.--Loci (talk) 23:50, 13 March 2019 (UTC)

Talk page requests


Hello, I'd like to open another talk/discussion page for "Silk Farming" (https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/Silk_farming#High-volume_silk_farm) with the following question:

What is the design to have Giant cave spiders produce silk? The current description is unclear for new players who are not familiar with the classical look & feel of the game; this, would at least amount to "incomplete"; also, not sure if the described technique still works..

User page requests

Created. --Lethosor (talk) 23:37, 30 June 2013 (UTC)

Redirect requests

dfhack, DFHack and DF2012:DFHack to Utility:DFHack. --Lurker (talk) 14:07, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

Done. --Lethosor (talk) 17:48, 7 August 2013 (UTC)
Done. Just do it yourself next time. Just create the page and add "#REDIRECT" followed by a space and the link to the page.CLA (talk) 22:19, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
The reason this page exists is because anonymous users can't create pages. —Lethosor (talk) 12:09, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
Oh, that makes sense. Should have figured that out on my own.

Other requests

  • I made some nice v50.xx graphics for the FPS efficient 1x3 pump stack design, and couldn't upload them when I tried to add a new block to the page. For the moment I've uploaded them here: even-z-levels, odd-z-levels, gimp-source. Could someone please upload them as appropriate and add them to the pump stack page? Thanks. Also I certify that these are all my creation and that DF-wiki can use them as it wishes. unsigned comment by Jello Raptor
    • Uploaded even and odd. Feel free to add them where you see fit. OddballJoe (talk) 01:54, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
  • Could there please be a smaller version of the "D for Dwarf" template, maybe one that leaves the text joke near a sentence, so that we don't have a big-ass banner for little one-off jokes in articles and reserve the "D for Dwarf" template for entire sections or articles? 68.56.148.200 23:15, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
  • Can someone include a discussion about how dwarfs choose which jobs/tasks to do if they have enabled multiple labors and there are jobs in multiple labors on the DF2012:Labor page? Is it based on which job is created first? Their skills / traits / attributes? Which labor they are highest ranked or their titled profession? This seems to be an issue in the LPs I've been watching early on when there are only the 7 starting dwarves, sometimes extending into the first migration. I know a solution is to deactivate other labors, or use burrows, but I'm still curious how it works. Thank you, 108.243.77.185 03:08, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
  • Hello. I wanted to know how to make the tiles uniform for the ground. I'm sure to have read somewhere once that it was possible to change the tiles to be all "." (I am currently searching for a Goblin Snatcher for a while now ^^). I searched for "ground" what has yielded me a link to above ground page. There was no link there. Could make one to the relevant article or indicate the settings to do please? 31.164.176.33 20:04, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
  • Hi, im new and just want to start translation of the wiki into german. im really into this game and i guess i still could learn a shitload of new stuff by doing this. AND there would maybe be more players around if and when i/we translate. not every german is fluent in english. -f4nt4sy F4nt4sy (talk) 15:01, 1 March 2014 (UTC)
See here. It's been suggested before, but it's been hard to set something up on this wiki. —Lethosor (talk) 03:22, 2 March 2014 (UTC)
  • I'd like to create a page under the centralized discussion for a proposal of subnamespaces for stuff like creatures, skills, etc. under a specific version. Stuff like DF2014:Rat becoming DF2014:Creatures:Rat. I'm not sure if the software allows this, but I thought I'd say it anyway.
  • I'd like to add an image of the 'animated bedroom design' section I added to bedroom design. I uploaded a short screen cast here [1], but to get it to below the 2 MB limit I also converted it to a GIF here [2]. I feel like just adding an imgur link has to be frowned upon so I didn't want to just link to it in the article. Austin (talk) 05:43, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
  • I'd like to add 2 pictures to the water reactor page (lower level and main level), showing how to build this in the Steam DF version. Since its the first edits, I can't get it to upload without request. Thurlin05 (talk) 18:26, 13 January 2023 (UTC) Thurlin05
