Wiki Contests
Wiki Contests
Wiki Contests happen every once in awhile where in the span of around a month users can edit specific wikis and earn prizes for their contributions.
Rules
The rules vary a little with each contest by what wikis will . be in the judging, and how long the contest will last. However, all wiki contests will be judged based on both quality and quantity so you can't edit just one word in a page over and over again and expect it to help you win. All edits must be factual, detailed, and well written.
How to Enter
To enter a Wiki contest you simply need to have an account on IGN and start editing. To find the contests Stephanie-IGN will feature the contest on her blogs and is where you can find out all the information you need to know about specific contests.
After the contest ends
After the contest ends it usually takes between 2 to 4 weeks for the IGN Staff to determine a winner. This is to make sure they take the time to see who did what in the span of the contest. Once the winners are determined they will be announced on Stephanie's Blog and all winners must flag the page within 72 Hours of the posting time. Make sure to be patient because the staff at IGN has a lot more to do than just monitor the contest. If you have any questions about if your flag went through ask the staff or the wiki moderators. After that the winners will be notified a few days later by e-mail to submit an address and what prize they want. Then simply wait for your new prize to come in the mail.
