Wiki Contest v4.0!

[Crowbill 493]

As the informations from the old wiki transfer to the new one, a lot of editing and even more data needs to be updated. This, of course, needs to be sorted out, and this is where we need your help! But unlike the last few wiki contest, this one is going to work a bit differently. Instead of a classical top ten contest, we’re implementing:

 

The Achievement System(™).
 

Yes, unlike the old ones, where a group of people tried to out-edit each other and gain a single reward, this one works on a system similar to quotas. We’re implementing a set of stepping stone rewards that an editor will get once he hits enough edits. As you do more and more edits, the award increases as well! The edits range from anything from making new pages or simply editing and updating old pages. Of course, making or updating a complex page will yield more points towards your reward than a simple edit.

 

The awards are following (These are to be discussed with the rest of the staff):

10 edit points: A money prize of 500 mina, 10 vote keys.

25 edit points: A money prize of 2000 mina, 1 renamed item of your choice.

50 edit points: A money prize of 3000 mina, 2 renamed items of your choice.

75 edit points: A money prize of 4000 mina, 3 renamed items of your choice.

100 edit points: A skill tome of choosing + 2500 mina, 4 renamed items of your choice.

 

BONUS!

Since this contest is sponsored by our lovely Telanir here, we have one more bonus award for each and every editor. For each edit point(™) that you get, you will be given 1000 experience towards the skill of your choice! For instance, 5 edits = 5000 experience points towards a skill that you wish to level up!

 

Rules:

Spoiler

 

1. You may select one topic you’re editing at the time. If you’re considered not working on your topic, you will be replaced if someone else is willing to work.
2. No plagiarizing from the forums. Aka. Don’t steal Keems art to make an example until she says “Ye ok”
3. Only one person per page. This can be ignored if it’s a huge page, but the editors must specifically say that they worked with someone and list the thing they did.
4. No memes.
5. Doing a half-assed job brings 0 points. If you’re editing the page, do it fully.
6. Any form of ruining the wiki will result with a banishment from the contest, and a possible ban from the server.
7. Keeping general objective view towards the page you’re editing is a must. Aka. Don’t shitpost about Dunamis if you’re an Orener editing their page. It’s not nice.
8. Trying to squeeze out as many as many edit points(™) out of a single post is forbidden and will be punished if found. (which it will, don’t forget you have to send the thingies you’re editing!)
9. Fixing someons page after they are done with their editing is allright as long as the your fixes make sense and are visible.
10. Play nice both in the wiki and in the skype group if one is made.
11. Making small refrences and jokes that don’t ruin the flow of the wiki are allowed.
12. Jokes or refrences that could both disturb other people or disturb the flow of the wiki are bannable.

 

Few disclaimers for people who wish to join the contest:

• General knowledge of HTML is recommended. Do not fear if you’re not familiar with it, as it’s a very easy code to learn and it doesn’t require much skill or time in it. Still, if you’re having issues with HTML, the wiki page itself has a help page with all the formatting codes needed!
• As it was said, the amount of points gained with your edits depends on the types of your edits.
• Some of the work on the wiki may include some “manual” labour (such as checking the forums for informations and basic calculation dates).
• I would advise checking if someone is editing a page at the same time as you, as that would cause some communication errors within the group of editors.
• You will be handed a document called the “The Editors Handbook” which will contain all the rules, the ranking system and all other useful info needed for editing.

 

The contest ends on March 16th!

As long as these pages are of good quality there's no harm really. This isn't necessarily what we're looking for in this contest, we need an overall shaping up of the wiki, but a page for yourself could net you an edit point.

But I can't do it for the contest? >:-[

How do you wish to contribute to the wiki (General formatting, pictures, other)? I would really like to make a lot of updates and additions for the alchemy skill, as when I was learning, I could have really used some help from reliable sources. The alchemy part of the wiki is not very functional and contains some unreliable information. Since the professions plugin was updated, I think it would be helpful to include some of the newer things (like how to gather herbs). I would also be happy to help anywhere else I can on the wiki!

Do you understand and agree to the rules? Yes I do.

Do you have a wiki account? (One will be made for you if you don’t have it.) Not yet.
