This Wiki
It's time to acknowledge that I have moved on from managing this wiki. With just over 9000 edits and countless hours dedicated to it, I unfortunately burned myself out. I also do not play the game anymore. I'll be shutting the Discord down soon as well.
I feel like we had a lot of dedicated editors and a lot of drive at one point, but the game just isn't one that benefits much from a wiki. https://nwdb.info does an amazing job at being a better resource for this game, and I will always support its work. I highly recommend using it. There's a ton of New World websites out there but this one is by far the best, and the owner is a quality human being.
But, if for some reason, this game needs a wiki again, and someone wants to start that work - …
Mostly Fishing Edits
I spent today making some edits to fishing, mostly in the form of fish caught. I added images for the fish. I noticed the template, but I don't have enough info to fill it out for the fish I added.
Wiki fonts and colors
When choosing fonts and colors for a wiki, I always begin with analyzing the game's website.
The New World website uses two fonts: "IM Fell DW Pica" and "Amazon Ember"; the forums uses "Metropolis" (which I haven't looked up yet) and "Arial". These fonts need to be imported before they can be used by the wiki. Place in MediaWiki:Common.css:

New World Wikia Discord!
Edit: The New World Wiki Discord has ran its course and has been shut down. Thanks for all the fun and collaboration!
Hi everyone, I'm pleased to announce that the New World Wiki Discord will launch on July 20th, 2021 (the same date closed beta starts). We can use this server to house to-do lists, coordinate projects, help new editors learn the ropes, and more. I have not opened up public invitations yet, due to making sure we follow the rules related to NDA and alpha data. In the meantime, feel free to reach out to me on Discord if you'd like an invite on the 20th.

- Roll and movement speed is determined by armor (light, medium, heavy) and inventory weight at overload capacity.
