Don't put to much faith in what you read on the wiki. The Fallout is wiki full of opinion. Either because it's old information or information that wasn't really vetted. The wiki is also very hard to maintain because someone in their great wisdom decided to put all things Fallout into a single wiki (bad idea) when each game should realistically have its own wiki. I've spent hours upon hours updating various things in the wiki. It's a mess.

Also, don't expect to make more than 5 caps per purified water from a vendor. I wouldn't even bother trying to sell them to other players. There are better ways to make money fast.

Here's a sure fire way to make money fast in FO76:

1. Max out Hard Bargain

2. Sell lots of weapons and aid items to vendors. I can usually hit max daily vendor caps with 1.5-2 runs at Westek.

3. Collect a ton of easily farmable resources (wood, plastic, steel, etc). Convert it to bulk then sell that bulk to vendors. I usually get 8-10 caps per bulk item sold to a vendor.

Fandom, in their limitless wisdom and undeniable omniscience, does not allow so-called "duplicate" wikis. Making a wiki for an individual Fallout game would get shut down right away.

The amount of edits has nothing to do with it. It's process of going into the game (usually with a new character that needs to be leveled up) and looking for the actual items you're researching, documenting all the stats for those items in-game, updating the wiki, then repeating it for every single item or topic you're working on.

On a side note "Blademaster", trying to be coy by pointing out false equivalencies only serves to create a bad wiki experience for other players. Go find something more positive to do with your time.

That's rich coming from someone saying ''don't put much faith in what you read on the wiki'', ''wiki is full of opinion'', ''wiki is very hard to maintain'', ''single wiki is a bad idea'', ''it's a mess''.

Your edits consisted of:

-Adding the location of three sugar.

-Capitalizing a word.

-Adding a location of some mole rats.

-Seperating two locations of oil which were already on the wiki.

-Adding a crafting schematic for the 10mm.

Those edits are good, but don't come here acting like that took hours upon hours to acquire. The edit that would've taken the most info gathering was the 10mm crafting table, and even that shouldn't have taken too long.

Also, unsure what you're on about with your false equivalence bogus.

To answer OP:

I wouldn't recommend selling water, as people have said, the selling value is lower. The price displayed in the inventory does often not add up to the actual selling price.

I tend to just pick up guns and chems and sell those when I have the chance. It is something you do while already doing something enjoyable, so it also doesn't feel as much like a slog like waiting for water to collect in the purifier.

Purified water plants are neat for the thirst bar in the early game, but I never really used them for selling.

Wrong!

My edits include:

• Going into the game, verifying each location of sugar mentioned in the wiki. Finding more locations and adding them to the wiki.

• Grammar is important. Deal with it.

• Going into the game, verifying every location of mole rats in the wiki. Finding new locations an adding them to the wiki.

• Going into the game, verifying every location for oil in the wiki. Modifying the wiki for better readability and future editing.

• Going into the game and documenting every stat for the 10mm at every level and validating if the wiki reflects the data in the game, Then finding out the wiki was missing an entire level and creating it.

It's obvious from your repeated unsolicited comments that you're either trying to minimize my efforts or you're trying really hard to convince people of something nefarious that isn't. I won't bother looking up any of your edit history because I can tell from your response that it's most likely not reliable information and adds credence to my initial statement about the state of the wiki.

Again, false equivalencies. Go find something more positive to do with your time kid.

I never claimed your edits didn't add anything, but you're talking like you're a major editor who single-handedly wrote entire wiki articles. You choosing to doubt the statements already made on the wiki is entirely your call - but those statements were already valid beforehand.

I've barely edited on the Fallout wiki to date, but I've been a major editor on the Elder Scrolls wiki. Not like that matters, I'm not one to compare edits, because I think it's in poor taste.

But you're acting like you are an authority on the wiki, like your claims come from being an experienced editor with years of experience, and who after said years of experience came to the conlusion the place ''is a mess''. This is not the case.

Claiming the wiki is a ''mess'' and ''you shouldn't put faith in it'' is a major slap in the face for all the active editors on the wiki.

All contributions to the wiki are appreciated, regardless of if they take two minutes or five hours. There's always a lot of work to be done on a wiki as big as Nukapedia, but as CISDidNothingWrong pointed out, Fandom does not allow duplicate wikis.

Anyway, please try to keep this post on topic.

This is all I need to know about how much you care about this wiki. Coming in to purposely attack someone with a condescending remark that has nothing to do with helping the OP. It's there for everyone to see and I hope you are proud of the fact that a newcomer to the game is seeing what type of community you're presenting to them.

This is the last I'll say anything on this topic,

Whoops! Accidentally started a war! Hate it when that happens
