So whilst I was re-familarising myself with the Admin Dashboard since I hadn't looked at it in a while, I came across this:



Apparently. the wiki gets around 15-20k views a day and only get under 200 article edits and under 10 photos uploaded per day. I also looked at the front page just now and we only currently have 79 people who have edited with a recent period of time out of at the least, 15 thousand that visit the site on a regular basis...If that's really the case then I feel we really need to focus a bit more on encouraging people to edit on the wiki with any knowledge they know and have reference of rather than just coming to the site for info themselves.

Granted, a large amount of those people probably only come to the site every once in a while to look for info and wouldn't edit but considering the daily viewership is stabilizing at around 15-20k, that's indicates that there's at least few thousand people that are coming to the site on a daily/bi-daily basis that, with a bit of encouragement, would at least edit a few articles before deciding to just go inactive and just look for info again or staying and becoming a regular editor on the wiki.

I don't have any fully developed ideas about how this could be done, but I'm open to suggestions.
