The '''Cross-Wiki Week''' is an event collaborated by different [[NIWA]] wikis. The idea is to encourage people to contribute to NIWA wikis that they aren't very familiar with. This not only helps wikis that are in need of a workforce, but also makes everyone learn more about wikis and franchises they don't know much about. Editors who participate can win a prize, usually a Nintendo eShop funds card.

The Cross-Wiki Week is an annual event collaborated by different NIWA wikis. The idea is to encourage people to contribute to NIWA wikis that they aren't very familiar with. This not only helps wikis that are in need of a workforce, but also makes everyone learn more about wikis and franchises they don't know much about. Editors who participate can win a prize, usually a Nintendo eShop funds card. You can learn more about the event here.

How can I help?
Pikmin 4 has recently come out, and there is still a lot of documentation to do for this game. Most articles about the game have help boxes explaining what needs doing, and most tasks are fairly small, such as documenting where a treasure is located or how an enemy attacks. If you want to upload images, go ahead: if you can get a good screenshot of an enemy, treasure, or other object, whether in an area or in the Piklopedia or Treasure Catalog, it's easy to export it off a Nintendo Switch and upload it to the wiki. If you don't have Pikmin 4, there's still a lot of other things to do around the wiki, including projects for other games and maintenance tasks that require no game experience. See Pikipedia:Helping out for more general information about contributing to the wiki.
NIWA network
NIWA is a family of open-content encyclopedias based on Nintendo franchises.
