Wiki Spotlight
Dec 6 2008, 3:53 AM EST | Post edited: Dec 6 2008, 3:53 AM EST
I was thinking, There are thousands (Even more) of wikis that have low members and yet, there are wikis that have a lot of members that have there own adverts! They have a lot of members already and what you are saying with those wiki adverts is "Join now! We have 2,000 members we need more!" How much greedier can you get?

So what I am saying is maybe once a week or month, You randomy select a wiki (One that not has a thousand members) for an advert on the great wetpaint wikis and some of the other wetpaint wikis can get more members so more people are happy!

Reply to this thread if you like the sound of a Wiki Spotlight!

You know, I LOVE that idea! That's great, especially since my wiki (Wiki World Issues.com) has so few members but a great cause. I will support you in asking for this!

I like the idea, but I don't want the spotlight to come up with wikis that have no content and haven't been active for months... But you are right, many of the best wikis have very few members! Maybe wetpaint should take a look at some of their wikis and pick some good ones to feature. 3  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

I know, I don't like the way how some wikis have no content at all (Even if they sound good) And when you mean by good ones, you mean ones that try to be good. People try very hard to get there wiki good and when not many members come, they feel bad.

Yeah. I have a wiki with loads of content and an original idea. It has many good screen shots and looks nearly as professional as WPC (if I dare say so lol) Yet it has only one member. The system doesn't work well. Big active wiki's get more members, and less active wikis dont get any. 2  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?

Yeah, I would join, but I wouldn't be able to keep track of it.

I can only be an active member of this Wiki and Wcc2. I don't have time for any other sites.
