It'd be nice if we could update this page, it's super outdated.

It hasn't been done already?!?!?!?! Slackers!!

On the serious side, it does take some time to properly create these things. The update isn't even two days old yet. If you would like to add information, you can create a section on the bottom or add it to the Discussion page. Adding a category like "Artifact" might be a good idea, too.

I agree they are slackers
Despite that though, I seriously did go through and make the missing templates myself.
Both artifact templates and inspirational artifact templates are now on the wiki, and I'm going through adding the new artifact info where I can...

Figuring out how to make those templates (correctly, for the most part) did take the better half of the day though, and can probably be polished behind me, (but I doubt that it will be, I -think- I did a damn good job). Credit to the original wiki makers, as It most certainly wasn't easy for someone who hasn't been taught how.

You did it wrong - it may break client wiki integration for some items. It is better to make one new template for artifice only, than create few copies of existing templates with artifice info added. Unfortunately I know next to nothing about templates creation, so doubt I can make it myself.

I can't see the template you created. Where is it?

It was the Template:Artifact and Template:Inspirational Artifact

I only have a handful of actual artifacts to add to the wiki, so it's clearly missing some, and there isn't a template for the clothing yet, so I haven't updated any of those.
An example of the first template would be Studded Leather, and an example of the second template would be Smooth Stone.

And, here's the code to be used when putting in the Artifact info - chances are, if your using this, you're probably making a new page for a new item, so don't forget to add the foraged or crafted template beforehand.

{{Artifact
| Difficulty=
| Proficiency Type=
| Common combat power=
| Common combat defence=
| Blunt power=
| Blunt defence=
| Impact power=
| Impact defence=
| Piercing power=
| Piercing defence=
| Concussive power=
| Concussive defence=
| Feral defence=
}}

and the Artifact Inspirational - for this one, you can simply change already existing Inspirational text to Inspirational Artifact and add the extra code at the end.

{{Inspirational Artifact
| Arts & Crafts=
| Cloak & Dagger=
| Faith & Wisdom=
| Frontier & Wilderness=
| Hammer & Nail=
| Hunting & Gathering=
| Law & Lore=
| Mines & Mountains=
| Pots & Pans=
| Sparks & Embers=
| Stocks & Cultivars=
| Sugar & Spice=
| Thread & Needle=
| Natural Philosophy=
| Perennial Philosophy=

| Difficulty=
| Proficiency Type=
| Common combat power=
| Common combat defence=
| Blunt power=
| Blunt defence=
| Impact power=
| Impact defence=
| Piercing power=
| Piercing defence=
| Concussive power=

}}

The reason I had to make two different templates, was as it turns out Inspirationals are already modular templates - meaning that they go after certain templates, like crafted or foraged. Artifacts would do the same thing, however, you can't put that after the inspirational and have the code work properly - the first template is basically setting the style of the second template, so it looks nice, and doesn't work over multiple templates. So, I had to create the extra template, in the same way there is an extra template specifically for Inspirational food.

Other than that, please let me know if I did anything else wrong.

Are we able to add things like reguired by structures to the artifacts? I noticed nails were artifices now and they're the most common building material.

I tested it to make sure, and yeah it works fine with the artifact template - nails is only using the crafted template and all of the 'required by' stuff is auto-filled in by it. There shouldn't be any problems filling in any missing artifacts with one of the two artifact templates (assuming your using the correct one of the two), unless there are any artifacts that are also food.

We should have pages about the cash shop and the items that can be bought there.

I'd like to see a complete list of the hats you can get in the mystery hat box one day...
