:After actually checking what the hell I'm talking about, I've found that you can actually create articles around edits to a specific category. For example, you could create a series of achievements rewarded for editing the articles in [[:Category:European nations]]. This gives you the likes of "make 100 edits to European nations pages". The individual achievements still remain unalterable though.--{{User:Skittles the hog/sig}} 19:59, August 22, 2011 (UTC) | :After actually checking what the hell I'm talking about, I've found that you can actually create articles around edits to a specific category.

i have no idea what this is about, but i agree that it should be tried but ready to be turned off if needed. i don't see any big deal in being the person with the most edits or whatever. i think that is the best way to make something like this unreliable. also, i think the website should stay mainly for whovians. if other people come in, that's ok, but that isn't the audience you should be aiming at, so advertising on the front page should be no big deal. besides, pages from this website already show up near the top of google searches on doctor who related subjects (that's how i found this website). isn't that enough? --[[User:Imamadmad|Imamadmad]] 08:50, August 23, 2011 (UTC) | ::i have no idea what this is about, but i agree that it should be tried but ready to be turned off if needed. i don't see any big deal in being the person with the most edits or whatever. i think that is the best way to make something like this unreliable. also, i think the website should stay mainly for whovians. if other people come in, that's ok, but that isn't the audience you should be aiming at, so advertising on the front page should be no big deal. besides, pages from this website already show up near the top of google searches on doctor who related subjects (that's how i found this website). isn't that enough? --[[User:Imamadmad|Imamadmad]] 08:50, August 23, 2011 (UTC) | ||
:::I am still of the opinion that it could bring a lot of rubbish edits and feel for Boblipton, we should look not just to attracting more people, but keeping the ones we've got. | |||
:::And, there's the old quality vs quantity argument. We might bring in a whole load of new editors, but if they just leave us with more work to do and little to show from it…I'm doubt it would be worth it. | |||
:::Imamadmad, I don't think this site should be for ''just'' Doctor Who fans. It should be anyone seeking information about ''Doctor Who'' and its related programmes, I fairly often read Memory Alpha, though I wouldn't consider myself a Trek fan, and when searching for information about specific programmes I usually go for a wiki for those shows rather than Wikipedia because the detail of information is greater. | |||
:::So, turn it on for a few days, as long as we're decided that this is a '''trial''' period and we can turn it off if need be. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 13:37, August 23, 2011 (UTC) | |||
