Animanga Wiki:Spotlights

Welcome to the Wiki Spotlight page Spotlighting for animanga wiki on the Animanga Wiki's main page The Animanga Wiki spotlights various wiki on its main page. Normally these are lesser-known wiki that could use contributors.

Of course there are some criteria for spotlighting.
 * A wiki needs to be here on Fandom
 * A wiki needs to have a few actual contributors to the wiki.
 * The wiki needs some content already, or helpful hints on how to help out.
 * It must have a link back to the Animanga wiki.
 * In the Wiki-navigation(if there is room) as: 
 * or in the Wiki-navigation(main dropdown) as: 
 * And on the main page as one of the footers, or
 * We're trying to network wiki together, spotlighting without links in the reverse direction don't aid the flow of users. Simple promotion via series articles doesn't require this of course.
 * With the exception of established wiki with a heavily vandalized main page, the main page  must not be fully protected, and should only be semi protected if shown to be necessary.

Here are a couple of examples of a traffic spike during a spotlight:
