User blog:Rogue maltron/How to grow a wiki

Most of us have started a wiki before and seen it flop but for wiki to succeed it needs about three major things 1.patience 2.alot of knowledgeable contributors about the topic of the wiki 3.powerful writing

Getting contributors
Getting them is not easy but there's only one way u have to look for them You have to be ready to dive into new communities until you have found the people you are looking for and i think another option is to distribute power according to their traits and that will help you to get your staff

patience
No wiki grows in one day it could take years but you as the admin you have to be patient this is not really a virtue someone can teach you

powerful writing
You have to want to make people read your wiki and when writing your wikis first pages do not dive straight into the topic your first pages should describe and be about: 1.wiki rules 2.wiki ban durations 3.the staff 4.the topic You should also have a news section(i reccommend using twitter) to create live updates.

strengthening the community
Make sure the community always has something fun to do like games in forums. Interesting chat etc This will make editors want to be more active Hope this blog was helpful Rogue maltron  talk 12:51, June 11, 2017 (UTC) 08:09, March 30, 2018 (UTC)rogue
