===Articles Needing Maintenance===

Pages that need fixing, editing, copy editing, or rewriting into proper articles after the information-gathering stage. This may include improper or missing links, bad grammar, spelling errors, misinformation, outdated images, improperly sized or cropped images, jumbled order, or informal style.
*List of {{ctg|Articles needing maintenance}}.

===Article Status Templates Used===
Articles using an Article Status template may need updating. Once complete, the Article Status template is changed or removed. 
* List of [[:Category:Article_Status|Article Status]] templates in use. 

===Wanted Pages===
Wanted Pages are pages needed on the wiki because they have been already been linked to. These include new content brought by recent {{ctg|Game Updates|updates}} or just missing {{ctg|events}}.
*List of [[Special:WantedPages|Wanted Pages]].

===Wanted Files===
Wanted Files are {{ctg|images}} needed on the wiki. These are usually images of Dragons mentioned in-game or by Gameloft but have not yet been seen, usually wiki staff uploads these images (getting high-quality versions direct from Gameloft). '''Note: Please do not create Dragon Icons (e.g., File:Leo Dragon Icon.png‏‎),''' these files are created by an Administrator (Kim) to ensure size and image consistency.
