I'm not sure what this idea is but maybe we can sort through it here now:

Collaboration of the week

I think the idea of having a collaboration of the week for stubby articles like on some of the other wikis would work out nicely, considering how you only have to read the comic to write an article about it (as opposed to other wikis where it is harder for just anyone to help in a weekly collaboration about, say, particle physics).--Meeowth 12:46, 6 Nov 2005 (EST)

I think we should focus on the community project I started first first and get it active so Collaboration of the Week will have more chance of succeeding. We seriously will benefit from having an active project like Collaboration of the week. Right now the Maintenance didn't do so well. :(.--Kiba 14:38, 6 Nov 2005 (EST)

Basically where everyone help work on one article like a group effort.

Here the link to the abandoned wikiproject I made.

I Get it - What Needs the Most Work Right Now Though?

Oh I get it - we need more people for this kind of effort though!

We need to plan one a little ahead of time and then promote it here (as well as around webcomicsland). If there was a way to know who participated we could try to think of nice things we could do at Comixpedia for people who participate (link mentions here are easy, I'm open to other brainstorming)

I guess we'd have to figure out what the most pressing needs were -

The most pressing need to me is expanding and cleaning up evil/ugly/vanity/annoying articles.

Well then let's plan a project for it -

Maybe we shoot for it for the first week of February? We need to think now about ways to motivate people to help out with it...

Why not give editors little informal awards like "Best content editor"
and "Cool when the situation turned hot" images and other items for encouragement? At Wikipedia, we have barnstars for almost all kind of good contributions like feature articles barnstars and other stuff.
