Autoswing
I think on all weapon pages there should be a stat that goes with the other weapon stats whether the weapon in question has autoswing or not. 76.230.76.150 12:37, 2 June 2019 (UTC)

Yoyos to iOS

If you have a suggestion post it on the forums please. And Yoyos are part of the 1.3 update which is coming to mobile versions. Theextroardinary (talk) 19:32, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Sloped and half blocks?
I was reading the wiki and it occurred to me, there is no page for slopes or half blocks! I’m not the best at wiki editing (I usually do minor additions, edits, or removal) but I was wondering if someone ever talked about amp align one? If so why isn’t there one?

 * I never realized, but you’re right, besides Platforms, it doesn’t seem like there’s an article for it yet! If you are planning on adding substantial material, a good place to put it might be Hammers or Blocks. —ϟ Awesome_Diamonds ϟ 「talk」 19:04, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

Russian wiki project
terraria-ru marked as completed, but it's was by a status of 2011 year. A bit earlier to 1.2 release, project was abandoned and now project have as minimum 600 "red links", because all the people have gone and no one don't fill the wiki more.

I think terraria-ru should be marked as active project again. HippoSold (talk) 11:47, 11 August 2019 (UTC)


 * All language projects which have gotten an own sub-domain (i.e., the translated pages are no longer accessible as language subpages on terraria.gamepedia.com, but instead on their own wiki, like terraria-ru.gamepedia.com) are considered completed. I understand that this is misleading, as hardly any of the language wikis have nearly as much content as this English one. Perhaps we can re-label these translation projects as "Moved to own wiki"? That would also involve removing all misleading notes conveying completion, so that occasional visitors – potential contributors – are not given the impression of the translation being finished. --Rye Greenwood (talk) 15:14, 11 August 2019 (UTC)


 * Re-labeling to "Moved to own wiki" will sound more correctly, at my opinion. Because it looks strange, completed translation project of Terraria Wiki to russian language, and it haves only about 15%~ filled content about game version 1.2+. But almost all projects have their own wiki, excluding 6 projects. So i think projects should be divided in "Moved to own wiki" and sorta "Uncompleted". And then be divided in sub-categories like - Completed, Active, Abandoned. HippoSold (talk) 17:18, 11 August 2019 (UTC)


 * I have reworked the page and gotten rid of the term "completed" entirely, because, in fact, no wiki is ever completed. Other projects can become completed at some point, sure, but translation projects cannot. What do you think of the new version? --Rye Greenwood (talk) 20:32, 11 August 2019 (UTC)

Articles for all wings
The only wing-types items with their own articles are the Hoverboard and Yoraiz0r’ Spell. Can we begin a project about creating articles for all wings? --Superwill771 (talk) 21:54, 10 May 2020 (UTC)


 * I don't think this is a good idea, because there's no benefit to it – quite the opposite, in fact. All information is available on one page in a compact way currently. If we split all wing types to their own pages, that would introduce a significant amount of duplicate data and, eventually, inconsistencies (think of how deep into detail the pages should go regarding wing mechanics: If someone decides they want to add that, say, wings render the Blue Horseshoe Balloon obsolete – if they only added that to the wing page they're currently reading, that piece of information would be missing from all the other wing pages.).
 * Group pages exist for a reason, and that is minimizing repeated information. What would the difference between a page "Angel Wings" and a page "Demon Wings" be? Apart from the one letter in the crafting recipe, they would be exactly identical. For this very reason, we have a Sand Blocks group page and not one "Sand Block", one "Ebonsand Block", one "Crimsand Block", and one "Pearlsand Block" page, and a Statues group page and not one "'0' Statue" page, one "'1' Statue" page, one "'3' Statue" page, ... you get the point. Hoverboard and Yoraiz0r's Spell deserve an individual page because they are so unique that describing every detail about them is not possible in the space that the "Notes" column in the Wings table provides.

So this means you can erase my stardust wings page I created. --Superwill771 (talk) 00:00, 11 May 2020 (UTC)


 * I believe the page was originally a redirect to Wings; could it be recreated as that, since it's been completely deleted? --172.58.4.244 16:22, 12 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Stardust Wings still exists as a redirect. The page that was deleted was  (lowercase). --Eraloiz (talk) 16:40, 12 May 2020 (UTC)


 * This may not be such a bad idea anymore, actually. Journey's end changed a lot of the wings to make them more progressive in specifications, so wings are more diverse and each set probably deserves their own page. Then again I'm not the best contributor to that as I don't get wings until the lunar wings... DanZeMan (talk) 21:02, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

There isn't enough difference between Angel Wings and Demon Wings, but there's a significant difference between them with other tiered wings like Solar Wings for example. I think the only benefit of having separate pages would be to list the individual stats change in 1.4, which is outweighed by the downsides. The item infobox would need to include all the wings stats (flytime, maxVSpeed, maxHSpeed, hoverVSpeed, hoverHSpeed, block height, etc.) so they stay consistent between pages (especially between the individual pages and the wings list) and all wings with the same "tier" would have repeated info. I think of wings like bait, where certain tiers would be like the Butterflies page, but the game doesn't have a clear name distinction between tiers, so it wouldn't work like it does for bait, without mentioning bait only has "bait power" as value. That being said, it looks like a user already went ahead and created all the pages, despite the note on the project page saying otherwise. — Dig494talk 13:06, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
