'''We'd love to help attract new contributors to your wiki. If you're interested in working with us on optimizing your wiki, we'd like to be sure you're following a set of best practices.'''

For design help (background, logo, home page, etc.), your wiki must follow these best practices:


 * The requester should be either an admin, or link to a discussion with an admin of the wiki and agreeing to skin design and homepage help.
 * The wiki should have at least one active admin, meaning he or she has made at least one edit in the last 7 days.
 * The wiki should have at least 50 content pages. Stubs (pages listed at Special:ShortPages that are less than 200 bytes) should make up no more than 1/5th (20%) of all pages on the wiki.
 * The wiki should have a clear category structure to help readers navigate around the site. Every content page should be in a category. (Special:UncategorizedPages should be empty.)
 * The wiki should not be in the middle of choosing new admins, or any other upheavals. It should be a stable, friendly place.
 * The wiki should be using the Wikia welcome tool, signed by the admin(s) (MediaWiki:Welcome-user should say @latest, @sysop or the name of an admin).
 * The wiki should not use offensive language or include inappropriate images.
