Alright just gonna go a quick rundown and give my thoughts.

1. I personally think Gamemaker and Social Media aren't needed (No one really makes games and honestly while having Social Media is great, we aren't a big site. Everyone who will like our pages is a member of the wiki, we aren't going to attract people off-site. Facebook and Twitter are simply too big of sites and Ben 10 is too niche and dead of a franchise to attract anyone. So right now the Social Media should be focused on letting our already existing userbase know of upcoming events like it is now. Nothing really needs to change on that front). But everything else seems good.

2. Same events as before, I don't think we need anymore for our current size userbase. As for participation, not much you can do since some people are busy or having nothing to show off. Those who don't fit in those categories 99% of the time sign up. As for how to maximize efficiency well last time we had users who wanted to participate come in and try to help out, what happened? It ended up being left all on me till the final two days when Sci and Sif came in to do their blogs. I suggest we have a SMALL team of about 7 users, we don't need too many that just over complicates things considering our current active community is around 20-25 users. These 7 need to be active MULTIPLE times a week if not daily and should be decide on by people who are most active on the wiki, so people like idk CaT, Mig, Monitor, Sixef, Me, Toon, Rob, etc. Then once the people are picked they are to place in their votes on a separate junk wiki for each category for each person in order from most liked to most disliked. Then we also pick out hosts for each day, give everyone their roles then move out. Each person will also have a "backup" incase they aren't on, so everyone will be technically assigned two roles (Main and "backup").

3. I think Mig, Sub, and the others are doing a great job with red link removal, if we give it a few more months and some more users joining in, I think it can be done.

4. Featured Episodes, Featured User of the Year, and Featured Userpage Design.

5. Nothing to say atm

6. Nothing to say atm

7. We don't need to go too all out, I'm thinking special logo and background + promoting a long night long hangout through the night to celebrate ringing in the new year.

8. My own ideas...

1) This might sound a bit rude but it's just my opinion. We should stop asking users to sign up for things like CC and all of that. People will sign up cause they think they will be active, want to gain some sort of advatage, or single handely run an event. We should go after users ourselfs to contact to see if they want to join things like CC. First time we had voting, it was just a popularity contest. Second time we are asking people to sign up, once again everyone will sign up to "be cool" or mainpulate things or etc. So we just go after people we trust, who are active, and can handle the job. Give them an invite, let them decide, if yes great they are on. Invite those trusted users, chat mods, and admins.

2) Let's not highlight so many forums at the same time, it spams the feed. Make one, wait a few days, continue.

That's all I can think of atm. Will update if I can think of more stuff.
