Hey man, thanks for that wiki.
I should contribute, but I don't really know how to.

If you want to contribute, just register and find an article to improve upon. Any improvement is appreciated; anything from fixing spelling mistakes, to formatting, to adding more information to existing pages, or even making entirely new pages.
According to the latest statistics, the wiki is getting slight over 100 000 visits a month, 50 000 of those unique visitors. This is rather fantastic.
In total these 100 000 visits have given the wiki 280 000 pageviews.
Since the wiki was first launched we've had a total of 525 000 visits, 215 000 of those unique visitors, for a total of 1.7 million pageviews.
However, as the Project Wonderful ads have not provided enough revenue to pay for hosting I'll be trying Google Adsense ads instead. Hopefully they will provide enough to completely pay for hosting, domain registration, and so on.
Edit: Here's a graph of pageviews to the CKII Wiki over time:
The EU4 wiki hasn't done quite as well yet

There's an EU4 wiki? Why isn't it on Paradoxian.org?
That's the problem! I have about a 1000 hours in on vCKII and numerous mods. I think I can manage editing some small things, but I'm worthless when it comes to the lay out of the (new)pages, links, and whatever.
A pure wiki noob. xD
Because Paradoxian registration is indefinitely closed.
Even just adding additional bits of information to existing pages is great help.
I've hidden the toolbox for viewers that aren't logged in, as my stats show that almost no one uses it (and it isn't of much use to anyone except editors anyway).
Pretty much everything on the wiki has now been changed to a proper naming convention system. All titles are uncapitalized (except the first letter) unless it is a proper noun.
Who ever made the advanced small country guide did a good job. I'm going to be trying out out now myself in a new save
Just out of curiosity: Where did that second Crusader Kings 2 Wiki come from and who is updating it?
The one on wikia existed already before Meneths' wiki.
edit: this one http://crusaderkings-two.wikia.com/wiki/Crusader_Kings_II_Wiki
Meneths' is easier accessible in my opinion, but i used both.
Oh, that one. Well, frankly I hate Wikia; the platform has ads and is terribly bloated; their editor won't even load for me. Plus, you lose a significant degree over the wiki, and in cases where wikis wanted to migrate off of Wikia, Wikia has sometimes decided to keep a copy of its own. Give me good ol' Mediawiki any day.
If i remember correctly, that's the reason why Meneth made his own.
@Meneth
Do you mind to put up some explanation to distinguish between Guide entries and open and up-to-date entries ? It was confusing for me the first time and probably is for noobs.
Just an idea, as it took some time for me to realise that there are sometimes your good, but sadly outdated entries, and these new ones existing side by side.
Thanks btw for this Wiki, i hope i will contribute something once in a while, though i won't promise anything.

Yeah, that's pretty much why I made the wiki. Sadly the owner of the Wikia has no desire to merge the wikis.
Well, the guide entries go into a lot more detail, and are focused more on what you should do than what the mechanics actually are. They could probably use some updates though.If i remember correctly, that's the reason why Meneth made his own.

The Wikia is under a CC-BY-SA license. Your CKII wiki currently doesn't have any copyright info. If you also put a CC-BY-SA license into place, then CKII wiki fulfills the "share alike" requirement, and may freely copy any content from the Wikia, and then modify it as necessary, so long as you attribute the copied content to the Wikia. That's the beauty of having wikis under Creative Commons licenses... users can copy info onto the wiki they like best, so that whichever wiki is best will be the most complete, and attract more people. Natural selection at work.
IMO that would be quite underhanded. While I did do so in the case of the Victoria 2 wiki, that was because it was simply impossible to contact the owner.
In the case of the Wikia, the owner is active, but for some reason has no desire to merge with the CKII Wiki.
So while it would likely be better for the community in some ways, it is not something I'm willing to do without the permission of the Wikia owner.
