Escape from Tarkov Wiki:Admin noticeboard

The Admin noticeboard is one way through which users can notify administrators of issues needing administrative attention. While users are welcome to directly contact specific administrators (especially if they are seen to be active), posting here can be an easier and quicker way of ensuring that at least one admin will notice an issue and respond to it promptly. Remember to sign (using four tildes: ) when posting an issue.

Before posting an issue here, please consider the following:
 * This page is for reporting wiki issues. Please post discussions on the talk page.
 * Post only issues that require administrative action, i.e. blocking vandals, protecting pages, requesting rights etc.
 * Do not post deletion requests here. Deletion requests should be made by adding  to the top of the target page, which will then automatically mark the page as a candidate for deletion.
 * Do not post issues regarding content disputes. Try making a request for comment instead.
 * Mediation requests between users should only be made once a resolution could not be reached between users.
 * For issues regarding the use of this wiki, please see our help center.

In case of vandalism, posting about it here is low priority. Revert it first, anyone can do so. If the vandal created a new page, tag it for deletion. Assume good faith and consider leaving a message on that user's talk page to explain the reason. Post here only if the user has made several disruptive edits and/or persists despite a warning. Always avoid a revert war with the vandal; it is far better to wait until an admin has a chance to intervene. If a user must be reported here, please use user, preferably as the topic subject/headline.

Flea Market information
Hi,

I have not contributed before to the wiki, I am a software engineer by trade and I know the APIs for tracking and watching the tarkov flea market have gotten better and more accurate.

I know that technically speaking I have the power to add to the wiki without asking permission but because what I want to do would essentially add a javascript HTTP req over to one of the available APIs I wanted to ask the admins if it was okay that I added a flea market price breakdown to some items. IMO the ideal way would be to figure out how to add it to the infobox template but that could be a v2 edition of what I am planning. Right now I would just go item by item and add my small module in as a table to show the different Flea prices from the different APIs that are available and then link directly to the websites.

Tarkov.dev and tarkov-market.com are a good example of some of those sites.

Thanks look forward to hearing back!

my discord is Poseidon if you would like to reach out!

 * Heya, i see multiple major problems with this undertaking. 1.The way the "data" on those sites is obtained is not entirely clear/ most likely not Escape from Tarkov TOS conform, and since we are the official game resource we can not have this here. 2.Using any kind of external data via some API is a huge security risk. 3.Any site that would be implemented in such way would get an insane traffic boost, and other projects would "demand" the same treatment. We do not want this kind of drama happening. The same reason applies to why we don't allow people to post their entire youtube video collection across the wiki.
