I like the new ‘design’ but not being able to see all the stats for missiles bothers me. There’s no ‘G’ rating for them at all

the new design is no less confusing to navigate, but now simply lacks large amounts of information. It is also no longer possible to do many useful things such as for example clicking on the name of a missile on the page of a jet and going to the missiles page (I did this a lot).

I agree, and the article section is poorly utilised. I hope they make it so that WT creator videos on aircraft also occupy the section, as it gives a lot of relevant information that the wiki itself is lacking.
Nah
I hear you. I think the new one has the potential to be better than the old, but I am sort of nostalgic for the old wikipedia style site. One thing I do not like about the new site is the infinite scroll of unrelated topics that shows up. I don’t know why we think everything needs a scroll feed these days, but I was not happy to see it* on the wiki.

The old wiki is still there. I was kinda livid when the list of every missile, and if it could be radar slaved. vanshed. it turns out if you just add an “old.” to the beginning of the url it works fine.

I don’t object to the new WIKI but I strongly object to the ABSOLUTELY MASSIVE loss of information!!! The old wiki gave lots of good information on guns, ammunition and missiles and even had pages comparing the entire AIM-9 family, the AIM-7 family, etc. It’s all gone in the new wiki. The new wiki looks nice but that is all it is, is looks. The old wiki was actually useful!

The new “wiki” barely even deserves the name; it’s a glorified social media platform that happens to have copied the in-game stat cards. No editing on a wiki. No search bar on a wiki. Vast amounts of extremely valuable info (tank ammo rack layout/usage, and many others already mentioned) just gone. Pages for weapons/ordnance, gone. Pages for families of vehicles, gone.
And that’s not even touching the layout/UI/waste-of-space stuff. It’s like the change to this new (much worse) forum, but even more egregious. They absolutely need a new team behind these decisions…

Exactly
Entire thing is just a complete mess
Weapon system articles are gone and replaced with stupid posts nobody will find
Finding articles is inpratical and family pages, though still exsistent are absolutely hard to find
Old wiki was loved so much so #Bringbacktheoldwiki

yeah its TOTALLY horrible, and it has much less clickable links now. It doesn’t have any sub-text for specific categories like firepower, not complete historical review of vehicles too, just the useless intro…
I was totally fine with everything - forum, new player cards, but the wiki is damn ruined!

Yeah the new ‘wiki’ doesn’t meet the definition of a wiki.
The beauty of wikis is that anyone could spin up their own unofficial wiki if they wanted to.
most of ammunition, weapons info is missing…It is UTTER trash…
