So.... I've noticed at least one person saying that the adventure mode stuff on the wiki sucks, probably because the last time they looked at it was 3+ months ago and they haven't noticed the massive updates to the thing starting about March 26th.

Before you tell any newbs that the wiki sucks and they shouldn't bother reading it, please take a look at the current state of (at least) the following two articles:

http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/DF2010:Adventure_mode_quick_start
http://df.magmawiki.com/index.php/DF2010:Adventurer_mode

If you still think the articles suck, then ok, but you should at least base your opinion on what they look like now and not what they looked like last year or something. We're talking massive updates/rewrites with several times the info that was there before.

It wasn't all me, but I did a lot of it... which is why I'm more insulted than anyone else.

Seems like there's too much information there. You only really need a couple of sentences for each article.

It is a vast improvement. Explains it very well. Only mistake was not explaining Date/time key, but its not really needed, since only the date is shown, not the time.
