  • If you want to help but you're not sure where to start, try improving the various stub articles by adding content.
  • Another helpful activity would be to check the list of wanted pages for frequently linked-to articles that don't exist yet.

Projects

We need more administrators. If you think you would do a good job, leave me a note on my talk page. Include your username, current time spent on the wiki daily, time you could spend on the wiki daily, number of edits you've made (with a link), any experience you've had on wikis, any references from other sites, why you should be an admin, etc. --Aeryka 05:49, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

This is no longer a WikiCity, this is a Wikia, and the wording of this Wikia should show that. Change and update links wherever possible.

We need to decide on what to call this Wikia, if anything, because it shouldn't be called Animal Crossing City because it's no longer a WikiCity.

We need content to be copied and transferred here from Wikipedia articles. We'd have alot more content.

Pictures needed!

We need help from anyone who knows how/can take high quality pictures on their DS. We're hoping to eventually have pictures of every character and item in the game. If anyone has the official game guide from Nintendo Power, please consider scanning in the images of furniture or characters (in color) and uploading them. They do not need to be edited by you, as every user is capable of that.
