User blog comment:Sarah Manley/Community Contest - May the best wiki win/@comment-13301-20100626114047

WikiDex is the biggest Spanish community about Pokémon, with more than 4600 articles and 43000 images. The wiki started focused on the main games and species, but sooner it was expanded to get information about the anime (one of the largest anime series, with more than 650 episodes), films and manga. This made us the need to use strong naming conventions to organize all the images and facilitate the use of them through templates.

Because the anime use different names between Spain and Hispanic America we needed to apply some naming conventions on anime articles as well to reflect both cultures (example), being the first Spanish wiki in doing that.

This year a new generation of new species and new games are going to be released, Pokémon Black and White, which make lots of new readers and contributors to join us, and we try to make our community a trusted source of information.

We have some nice features to help the site navigation and presentation, such a set of predefined styles for tables so it's easy for users to style them, and JavaScript features that allow change displayed images when the user hover special links (example 1, example 2), and a new popup window to enlarge images, more efficient and that allows navigation through images inside a gallery (example).

I like this contest, since we can discover a lot of nice communities on Wikia about different topics that we were missing otherwise!
