    It will start after the MMO Help Contest, which ends in about 6 days. We will announce the Wiki contest after that:).

    I'm gonna edit it so much now that it will be impossible to add things after the contest starts.

    It will most likely be for overall activity since the wiki needs as much good content as possible.

    We will start the Wiki contest in the next few days:). Since it will be tougher to keep track of than previous contests, does anybody have any suggestions on doing that?

    Well, it would need to be good content.

    What I could do is take a look at each page before giving a point.

    Two possibilities are:

    1. Each page has a minimum requirement. The forum member gets a point if their page meets that requirement.

    2. Each page is rated by how good it is. For example, we could have a 5 point system where an excellent page receives 5 points and a poor page with little content receives only one point.

    I think we should have the minimum requirement, but you should give more points to really long edits though, up to 10 points for each edit, to prevent people just doing one point edits one after another.

    Well, we might could do a combination of the two. We could have the minimum requirement for one point and then have rating system for quality. Also, we could place a daily limit on one point edits.

    You understand tables surely? And there are "anchors" on some words, it's to let links in the Contents table go straight to that title. It's not that confusing, it's just the editor interface could be confusing with some stuff.
