Welcome to Nookipedia's Summer of Edits 2021! This editing drive is a way to show our appreciation of our awesome editors by giving away Animal Crossing and Nookipedia merch to contributors. It's easy to get started - and all participants will receive Nookipedia stickers!

Old and new editors alike are welcome to participate. If you don't have an account yet, you may create one here. See the details before for how to enter and earn entries.

Eligibility

Signed-in editors who add content to Nookipedia articles can earn entries to win a prize. Edits made to Nookipedia between June 20 and September 21 are eligible.

Submit your edits here

Edits will be scored by Nookipedia staff as follows (each point is one entry, up to a maximum of 10):

  • 1 point - A small addition, such as adding a sentence, citation, or adding an image.
  • 2 points - A more substantial addition, like writing an entire section of an article.
  • 3 points - A major addition, such as creating a substantial article, putting a table of items together, etc.
  • At their discretion, judges can award more than 3 points for exceptional and large contributions.

Editors can earn a maximum of 10 entries (one per point) for the drawing. But don't stop submitting your contributions just because you reach 10 points - the editor with the most points at the end will also receive a prize!

How to submit

The submission page will automatically list all of your eligible edits within the contest period.

  • Select any edits that you'd like to submit for points from the list, then click the 'Submit Revisions' button.
  • Select any edits that you don't want to submit, then click the 'Hide Selected' button to remove them from your list.
  • If you make multiple small edits to correct mistakes made during a larger edit, submit them all but note that you may receive all of your points on the largest revision and a score of 0 on the smaller ones.

We recommend visiting this page often so you can submit and hide edits frequently to keep the size of your list down. Those edits will rack up before you know it!

Judges will periodically review your edits and assign them points as appropriate. You can view a list of all of your scores on this page.
