* The Archives run on [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki MediaWiki] software, but it is not a pure wiki. That means not anyone can contribute; editing is restricted-access only.
* They are not the be-all, end-all of authority on Achaea information. Though we'll do our best to make sure there is no misinformation within these pages, most entries are contributed by players and not by the administration of Achaea and any information that cannot be verified on the official website, within the game, or directly from the Achaea administration should be taken with a grain of salt. That said, our Chroniclers are unparallelled in their depth of Achaea knowledge, from the epic histories to the most trivial minutiae, and this disclaimer is meant as no slight to them.

* Quest information and information that helps you further your character in the game will not be included in the Archives, excepting in certain special contexts.
* Those who wish to gain information solely through their characters in Achaea may still do so; this supplementary material is an optional tool, not a forced replacement.
* There will still be much in Achaea not accessible here, such as the esoteric knowledge of Houses and Divine Orders.

The Chroniclers of Lore are the approved contributors to the Archives.
