This Final Fantasy XIV Wiki is an unofficial website, shaped by public collaboration of Square Enix's online roleplaying game, Final Fantasy XIV. All information contained here is provided by the voluntary efforts of individual players and groups working to develop a comprehensive information resource for all Final Fantasy XIV fans to use and enjoy.

This website is an open wiki. It allows anyone with access to the Internet to create and alter its articles and content. Please note that articles and information found within this wiki have not necessarily been reviewed by members of the Final Fantasy XIV development team, or employees of Square Enix.

Although much of the information presented on this unofficial Final Fantasy XIV Wiki strives to be accurate and up-to-date, Square Enix cannot guarantee the validity and quality of the information. It should be understood that the content of any article may be modified or changed at any time by any member of the community. It should also be understood that any wiki page has a risk of becoming vandalized or improperly altered by users.

To maintain a sense of community on this user-contributed resource, it is encouraged that any user encountering improper, offensive, or otherwise incorrect information simply take the time to edit the article in question and correct the problem. If any situations arise that warrant further involvement, they should be reported directly to this unofficial Final Fantasy XIV Wiki moderators for review.

Non-disclosure

As Final Fantasy XIV is currently in development, it should be clearly understood that information that has not been officially released by Square Enix pertaining to the game should not be posted to this website. Any inside information gained by individuals such as alpha and beta testers, press, Square Enix employees – be them Japanese or any other nationality, and individuals bound by a Non-Disclosure-Agreement (NDA) may not be posted to this wiki for any reason. Any information in violation of this policy is subject to immediate deletion.

No Formal Developer Reviews

Since this is an unofficial wiki, and while it's open for anyone to edit – including FFXIV development team –, it should be understood that all articles cannot be officially reviewed. Our community of editors use resources such as the Special:Recentchanges and Special:Newpages feeds to monitor new and changing content.

It should be clearly understood that this Final Fantasy XIV Wiki is not reviewed by official Final Fantasy XIV developers. It should not be expected that Square Enix employees will correct errors or engage in reviews of any sort, as they have no legal duty to do so and thus all information read here is without any implied warranty of accuracy for any purpose or use whatsoever. Due to open community access to this unofficial Final Fantasy XIV Wiki, even if articles were to be reviewed by official employees of Square Enix they may later be edited inappropriately, changing their original content.

None of the contributors, sponsors, administrators, developers, or anyone else connected with this unofficial Final Fantasy XIV Wiki in any way whatsoever can be held responsible for the appearance of any inaccurate or libelous information or for your use of the information contained in or linked from these Web pages.
