The Cross-Wiki Week is an annual event hosted by the Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance (NIWA), held to celebrate Nintendo's birthday. The purpose of the event is to promote cooperation by inviting editors to contribute to wikis they don't regularly edit. At the end of the event, two winners will receive a $20/€20 Nintendo eShop gift card for participating! The 2024 Cross-Wiki Week will take place from Friday, 20 September, to Monday, 30 September. For more info, please have a look here.

What can you help Rhythm Heaven Wiki with?

If you are visiting from another wiki and wish to help Rhythm Heaven Wiki, here are some things that can be done:

  • Project:Community Portal and Category:Site maintenance contain information and links for general maintenance. There is also a list of articles with a to do list.
  • Category:Unsourced files has images while have a {{Aboutfile}} template, but no source is given for the file. There are also many files which lack this template entirely, are unused and unnecessary, or need updating in some way. See the bottom of this section for more information as well.
  • The pages in the Development History category are relatively new and often contain little information. This page has an overview on how these should be structured, with the biggest thing lacking being images of the unused sprites, etc. This requires in-depth knowledge of the series, and would likely necessitate the creation and standardization of tools to properly rip sprites and animations from each game, as well as figure out a way to organize these files on the wiki. A sprite gallery showing all animations in a game, used and unused, has also been suggested, though no attempts at creating it have been made so far.
  • Post-forking cleanup. This includes seeking out and deleting content created on the FANDOM platform that have not yet been removed on the independent wiki. Many CSS adjustments are also needed (for example: the Special:RecentChanges pages has a collapsable table on the right which uses a white background, making the text very difficult to read), in particular on the mobile view. The Main Page could potentially use a redesign as well.
  • An idea has been proposed to document games that have been directly inspired by the Rhythm Heaven Series.

While Rhythm Heaven Wiki does not have a dedicated Discord server of its own, there is a channel made for discussing the wiki at Rhythm Gehenna, and people at RHModding sometimes discuss the wiki as well.
