I share your concern regarding obtaining a commitment from users. Giving them the reward first, then asking them for the work, doesn't usually bode well. Also, I would expect players to be more interested in playing than editing, at least at first. I can't blame them!

If you have users in mind that you think would be receptive, please let me know who they are. Otherwise, I will look at your current active editors and look to see who was active during the last release and start with those, then move on to active new users.

I do have another project though I would like to talk to you about. As part of the partnership with EA for Mass Effect: Andromeda, we are expected to create what we call a Super Walkthrough. This is a single page with information directed at new players. It contains both text and videos. The videos are created by us and verified for accuracy by the publisher. The videos can be hosted on our private video server so that they do not show in your video library at all. This may be a preference for you, as we keep in mind your community's video policy. Only users accessing the Walkthrough would see them. Two examples of previous Super Walkthroughs we have done recently are Deu Ex Wiki and Elder Scrolls Wiki

Would this be acceptable to create on Mass Effect Wiki for Andromeda? You and your community have the right to say no. We just hope you will choose not to. The page will link to important key Mass Effect: Andromeda articles. If they are thin in content, I will do what I can to update them. I believe this is the only other request we have for your community and it's one of the tools we use to drive traffic. Let me know!

I do want to give you a quick update on the main page redesign. We have the new design sandboxed but we aren't quite ready to show it yet. I spent the last couple of days linking the new nav box up. The links won't work in the sandbox, but will work once the design is live. As soon as I get the word that it is complete, I will gladly show it to you. Should be soon. I have noticed you keep a News feature updated on the current main page. We often use a Google RSS feed to do something similar on main pages, and that may be a feature to add in the right rail after the design is live. The News section was not in the first image I showed you but since you are updating the current one, I wanted to mention it.

Thanks!
