Official Guild Wars Wiki Opens

Supposedly, AN wants to incorporate the data/information available from such Wiki site into the game, or games (GW2). A player would be able to search for information he needs in game. A great feature if that happens.

According to AN, they did approach GuildWiki and see if they can work out a deal, however, two major obstacles prevented the joint venture.
First, GuildWiki shows ads that AN does not approve of. Nothing a little money cannot solve,
The main reason is that GuildWiki uses a Wiki license that does not allow any commercial usage. I am too lazy to check out details of Wiki licensing so I chose to take AN's words for it - And since all the data is submitted for non commercial use, each author has to (re)authorize all their contributions (if that can be done at all).
Essentially, it's starting all over again, and that's what AN did.
Note that contributors to the GuildWiki can submit/transfer their articles (from GuildWiki) to the official wiki with no legal restrictions.
