Feed The Beast Wiki:200k Editathon

The 200k Editathon (an editathon) is an event for any and all FTB Wiki users to take part in. This editathon highly encourages new users to edit, not just staff. The editathon starts the moment the wiki reaches 200,000 total edits, as a celebration for the milestone and for the summer. It will end after a week.

New editors are encouraged to create or extend or translate or improve any mod or modpack documentation as desired! Wiki staff members that participate should work on helping newcomers if possible, as well as finishing off anything that's been lingering on your TODO list for too long. Keep in mind participants do not need to edit continuous, although they are encouraged to sink a fair amount of time into it.

 edits left until 200,000.  edits until signups.

Tips for newbies

 * Not sure how to get started? Browse through the Getting started guide, the Translation Guide, the Crafting grid guide, the Manual of Style and the Article creation guideline. Sound like a lot? Well, much of it is information that may not be relevant to you, or just common sense, so you can simply skim through it.
 * If possible, requesting the staff to create a navbox and/or a tilesheet is recommended- navboxes can be quite confusing to create if you're unfamiliar with wikis, and tilesheets can only be registered by staff.
 * Collaborating on documenting a particular mod is possible, but keep in mind MediaWiki as not as good at handling collaborations as, say, Google Docs. If collaborating, make sure to communicate with your partners so you don't accidentally write the article independently, and consider copying (just using CTRL-C) your edits if working on an important page, such as the main mod article.

Prizes

 * The FTB Wiki will give a $20 Steam gift card to the new user with the most contributions of both quality and quantity, based on staff consensus. This new user cannot be part of the existing FTB Wiki Staff, or ex-staff (up to a retirement period of a year). If no new users have significant contributions (as according to FTB Wiki Staff), the FTB Wiki will not give away anything. Steam is not a sponsor of this promotion, nor does the FTB Wiki have any association with Steam. Additionally, this text is not small with the goal of making it unreadable, it just has the goal of not bothering the reader, which it isn't doing that well.
 * Additionally, Gamepedia will automatically give "PRO" subscriptions to active editors. See this page for more information.
