User blog comment:Meighan/Start a Wiki: Tips for Success/@comment-824313-20110624080127

Let's see... I created my first wiki because it was a subject that interested me a little bit. I didn't realize there was already a Magazines wiki, which (theoretically) covered all of them. I'm sorry to aggravate you, Shrev64, but I abandoned that one when it ceased publication. I created my second wiki because there wasn't another one out there that did the same thing, and I thought it was a brilliant idea. It was a homework assignment-posting site. Since then, I've stopped really worrying about that one, too, and mostly attached myself to wikis that are already a good size, because I dislike stress. I feel comfortable knowing I'll never have to edit a single page on my SpongeBob wiki for it to qualify for a spotlight (2000 > 200).

One recent wiki of mine is the Paper Models wiki, which I founded with a friend. I did the administrating and he did the content-building, so it's not really my fault that it's mostly inactive. It could would be huge, if we'd bothered to work on it some more, and I guess I do deserve some of the blame. If I'd just added two or three models daily, I bet we could've qualified for a spotlight by now.

Oh well, it's never too late to get going again, although I've already got a lot of different projects on my plate (and, consequently, a lot of tabs open on my browser ☺). If I work to improve my content, advertising and OCR I could run the top Paper Cutouts/Models source in the world. Well, the US anyway. It's a shame I'm too lazy.
