How to use the official Stardew Valley Wiki (stardewvalleywiki.com): search tips, multilingual support incl. Chinese, and how Stardew Valley Expanded differs.
Stardew Valley Wiki Guide — How to Use the Official Wiki and Best Resources
First, a spelling fix: "xtardew valley wiki" is a common misspelling of "stardew valley wiki" — what you want is the official Wiki: stardewvalleywiki.com. People searching this (and its variants) want: where's the official database, how do I use it, and how is it different from mod wikis. This guide covers the official Wiki's usage, content scope, and ecosystem.
Official resources: Official Wiki (English) · Official Wiki (Chinese) · Official Site · Steam Store Page
What the Official Wiki Is
stardewvalleywiki.com is the community's authoritative database (wiki-style, player-maintained, covering the whole game):
- All item data: crops, fish, cooking, tools, weapons, artifacts, minerals, furniture — every item page has acquisition, price, uses, and recipes
- All system guides: skills, festivals, random events, Community Center bundles, Ginger Island, Mastery, multiplayer
- Version history: complete change logs for every patch from 1.0 to 1.6.15 (version history page)
- Multilingual: a dozen-plus language editions; the Chinese version is at zh.stardewvalleywiki.com (slightly less complete than English, updates lag a bit)
It's the most complete, fastest-updated, most-cited database, and it's officially recognized (the official site links it directly). Every number on this site's guides (sprinkler ranges, random event odds, Grandpa's scoring) uses the official Wiki as baseline — after a game update, the Wiki is usually the first source to refresh.
How to Use It Efficiently (Veteran Tricks)
- Go straight to page names: the Wiki is organized by page name — to look up "Iridium Sprinkler," type
stardewvalleywiki.com/Iridium_Sprinklerdirectly; faster than site search - Use the left navigation: browse by "items/systems/locations/residents" categories — good for orientation
- Check "History": item pages have version-change history at the bottom — "what did 1.6 change" answers live there
- Pair it with tool sites: community companion tools (save checker, crop profit calculator) are linked on the Chinese Wiki homepage (community-maintained, unofficial)
The official Wiki is volunteer-maintained and broadly reliable, but very-new version content can lag (e.g., early 1.7 info) and a few entries have edit disputes. For key facts, cross-check: official Wiki + official changelog (stardewvalley.net) + in-game testing. That's exactly the standard this site's guides follow.
Clarified: The Stardew Extended Wiki and Mod Wikis
Searching "stardew extended wiki" (a common query) mixes up two things:
- Stardew Valley Expanded (SVE): the most popular big overhaul mod (new maps, NPCs, story) — it has its own Wiki (SVE's official documentation site)
- Official Wiki ≠ SVE Wiki: the official Wiki covers the vanilla game; the SVE Wiki covers mod content. Playing SVE? Check the SVE Wiki. Playing vanilla? Official Wiki
- There are assorted smaller mod wikis too, all unrelated to the official Wiki — figure out "vanilla" vs "mod" before searching
The official Wiki has no spoiler protection — looking up "Grandpa's Evaluation" tells you the year-3 mechanics outright. Want to keep surprises? Play first, then search. (If you're already here, you probably don't mind — this site's guides also assume spoilers, see the ending guide.)
From Wiki to Guide Site: How This Site Fits
This site (RogueWiki) splits the work with the official Wiki: the Wiki gives data, the guides give "how to play." For example:
- "What does the meteor drop" → official Wiki (the events guide also compiles it)
- "How should I plan year one" → this site's beginners guide (the Wiki has no playstyle advice)
- "When does 1.7 come out" → the official Wiki doesn't have that page yet — see the 1.7 update guide
