Technical tips[[edit source]]

If you care about maximising your point totals, you should pay attention to the following discoveries:

  • The general editing track — that is, the one that receives badges which display simple numbers — only counts editing in namespace 0. That is to say, your counter only advances when you edit a normal article. You don't get points for editing a Category, Talk, Forum or any other kind of page.
  • The picture editing track is very finicky. It only rewards you for adding a picture which is already uploaded. If you create a redlink on a page, click on the redlink, and then upload your picture — you get no points for it.
