Incorrect.  I have wished for +3 gloves and +3 crysknifes and
gotten -3 stuff.  I had to go to +2 to get the stuff.  The actual
scenario involved a) wishing for a +3 crysknife, b) enchanting
it until it evaporated, c) wishing for another +3 crysknife.
The second one was ALWAYS -3.  Also, you don't need the article
to wish for something.  "wand of digging" and "a wand of digging"
are the same thing.

A note of caution - make sure you're not totally loaded up when
you wish.  If you are, you'll get "Unfortunately, nothing happens"
when you wish.
