==The Goal==
The goal of this project is to create an as complete as possible guide (incl. tutorials, how to play, ...) of [[Entropia Universe]] and keep it as up-to-date as possible.
 
The wiki is predestinated for such a project since anyone can edit it and various types of content can be embedded.

Any contribution is welcome no matter whether its an 30 pages elaborated crafting guide or just a typo fix.
 
And everything can be part of this guide, for example:
* a map of a city
* a single line remark like "there's no mining in Ancient Greece"
* a picture guide on how to file a support case
* a youtube video introducing swunting
* a pdf with the most important items on how to avoid getting scammed
* images showing interfaces like the auction
* a written text guide on a 3rd party tool like the inventory calculator
* etc
