How to Revive Editing

Editing has been dead for a while now, so now that I, Henry Hudson am bureaucrat, I'm going to try and revive editing. I feel like this revival can be done by just doing two simple things.

Overview
I know that You-See-Pee (UCP) absolutely ruined wiki activity, changing it to rEcEnT cHanGeS. The general wiki consensus is that it's hard to use and navigate. However, there is a better one that some geniuses at FANDOM made: Better Wiki Activity. If it says "no special page exists," just reload the page.

In my opinion, this newer wiki activity is much easier to use, and it's almost as good as the original one.

Why should you check wiki activity?
I remember back in Gens 2 & 3, wiki activity would always be the first thing I'd checked. I'm really not sure why, but it always kept me editing pages. And I know I'm not the only one. Checking wiki activity is definitely the easiest way to revive editing.

How do I access this new wiki activity?
At the top navigation, it's the first link under the COMMUNITY tab. I would recommend switching your wiki bookmark (if you have one) to the wiki activity link just to keep things simple. From wiki activity, you can easily access discussions and all the other stuff you'd normally access from the home page.

Community Activities
Community activities used to be the most edited pages on the wiki. Usually, community activities would receive dozens of edits daily. These are the pages we need to revive wiki activity.

Competitions
Competitions don't necessarily bring many edits to the wiki, but they do increase activity a lot. Lots of competitions, like Obi-Wan's wiki wipeout take place in Discussions, which is perfectly fine.

Should I make community activities and competitions?
Absolutely!

The more you help increase activity, the better. If we see you making lots of community activities and competitions, you may get a higher chance of getting staff 👀.

Advertise the Wiki?
Now, I only said "two steps," but advertising the wiki may potentially be a third. Obviously, GoComics is too stupid of a place for us to advertise, so this is only an idea for now.

What Else can I do to Revive Editing?
Great question. There are numerous other ways you can help out!

Make pages
Good pages aren't limited to just community activities and competitions. Pages like stories, surveys, and more are great!

Add/Remove Categories
Categories help out the wiki a lot. If you a feel like a page has not enough or too many categories, feel free to add or remove them. However, please only add relevant categories that aren't spammy. Don't badge game.

Comment
Comments are there for a reason. Feel free to write something funny or related to the page. Commenting appears in wiki activity and will encourage others to reply or edit.

Make Templates
Templates are great! They usually require some knowledge of HTML, but it's pretty simple.
