Intro

On March 14, 2025, Urban Dead (the game) was closed. This wiki, however, will remain active in read-only mode.

In order to continue providing maintenance, the sysop team will continue to have write access.

Requesting Changes

Reaching out for the Sysop Team

If you need to request a change to the Urban Dead Wiki:

  • Check the list of active sysops here.
  • There is a #support channel on the UD Wiki Discord. Place your request there.
  • Check one of the Discord servers, and look for one of the active sysops there.
  • If none of the above can be reached, please contact User:Kevan

How to request changes

In order to request changes to the wiki,

reason why you you believe this page needs to be changed
<!-- BEGIN WIKI CODE -->

<!-- END WIKI CODE -->
  • if the request requires us to supress revisions (in order to supress private information from history, for example), please let the sysop know when you make the request
    SYSOPS: This means that the page needs to be DELETED first, only to be recreated with the new code.
