Not to criticize liquipeida but since the majority of use are D-C+ players, with a few exceptions above C+, isn't it possible that the experiences/knowledge we have gained are in fact incorrect?

I'd say that C+ level players have a good enough understanding of the game to make Liquipedia helpful to all players. Besides, we haven't really gotten too much involvement in the Strategy section yet. I've mostly been seeing edits in the Progaming and units sections. Besides, you don't have to be mechanically good at the game to know what you're talking about.

I only go there for BOs and lingo.
100% accurate, so far.

But that is my experience.

Sarcastic answer first, if everyone was doing their part and reading the wiki to get better at SC then we could tell you to only build Scouts and it would work out since everyone would be doing it!

But for real everyone has something that they know about Starcraft that they can contribute. Every time you play SC you work through an idea in your head to improve. veryone has something to offer.

i agree, once you're around that level you have a very strong fundamental knowledge of the game, and what separates C from BA is execution, practice, and teamwork

I also agree. When I was simply a D player not even D+ I knew a whole lot about the game but my mechanics just weren't good enough...

Can anyone add this picture to the "missile turret" article? I have no idea how to add pictures.

Also, is there any equivalent of the {fact} tag to mark unverified claims?

I just wanted to say the the section with all the unit facts (e.g. size, cooldown, dmgtype) is amazing.

Fx I just found out why hyds dont completely owns vultures. They only deal 7.5 dmg to them and not 10.

Good call bringing this up. I recently discovered liquipedia (as I recently started playing bw again) and it has already been very helpful.

One thing I would really like to see added is information on micro technics. The vulture entry could have details on how to perform patrol-move attacks and how to ensure good mine-laying. I will consider how I can contribute.

If anyone out there have some useful information on how to properly micro valks, please DO add it asap! =)

EDIT: Just realized there already is a section on vulture micro, only it isn't very obvious how to get to it. Maybe a micro subsection should be standard in race stragetegy overviews?

If you use the search option and type search for "micro" the first link that you receive is Vulture Micro

The search option is really usefull if you want something in particular

I'm a fairly rubbish D rank, so I'm going to try and avoid making sweeping changes to the strategy section. However I am reasonably adept at wiki markup magic, and can (usually) write intelligible English sentences, so if anyone has something strategically brilliant they would like to add, but doesn't feel confident in writing it up it then let me know and hopefully we can work something out. Teamwork and that.

Edit: Until then I'm just going to tinker with unclear wording issues, or maybe try and rewrite some bits of the Zerg vs. Terran section, as it's really bad right now.

I've just added a ton of ideas to various discussion pages, most of which deal with fairly large changes I would like to make. No offense but the current system is something of a mess. There's a lot of good information but it's quite badly organised. Do you moderator types get notifications on discussion page changes (ie is anyone likely to respond to me)?
Is there a better way to discuss changes bigger than adding new pages / rewording things?
