I think alot of what I was thinking has already been said. I think the trial period is a good idea, but truthfully, think an achievements system seems alittle out of place on a wiki. It could be potentially beneficial if used right though, if you have the right achievements that is. I think someone mentioned it before. Don't just give an achievement for editing a page. Instead you might have an achievement for adding pics to pictureless wiki pages or an achievement for fixing a stub. Whatever the achievement, it should focus on aspects of the wikia that are neglected.

It would appear there's general consensus to proceed with a trial period. I have begun the process of handcrafting dozens of graphics to customise the appearance of the awards so that they have relevance for our wiki. However, thanks to what some people are calling the "implosion of Wikia" today, I'm severely behind schedule. I had wanted to roll out the test beginning tomorrow, but I may now have to defer to the weekend. I now have to clean up rather more basic things about the wiki like — I dunno — being able to see the edit button and the options underneath. It would be appreciated if other admin could refrain from enabling Achievements so that it could be rolled out as a completed, fully ''Doctor Who''-themed feature. {{user:CzechOut/Sig}} <span style="{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}">'''04:00:31 Thu '''25 Aug 2011 </span> | |||
