How about a recently edited tab? It's always good to know what information has just been updated.

Well, the "recent changes" page is there, but that can be a bit annoying to look through especially since many of the changes are to template pages and other pages that the average player doesn't have access to.

What do you think of a page that lists all the pages by what was most recently edited?

Yeah, I was afraid you would point the "Recent Changes" tab out. I don't really find that tab all that helpful as it gives more information that's not useful to the player and has double changes. Like for instance with a Recent Activity tab it will only show the page once instead of twice if it's been edited twice in a row.

Here's an example of what I mean from the Fan page Wiki:

If you notice as you explore the wiki on the right side it contains a tab that shows you what pages have been recently updated. That would be a nice feature to have. I'm not asking for it on every page, but on the main page would be a great spot for it.

It's also a lot easier for admins to read and follow changes to pages and revert or fix any of the new content that needs fixed because of a mistake.

This is solid information, I enjoyed the read and I loved the battle with the nice music.
