Power members of Whiskey Media know I post a monthly data-porn blog with stats celebrating the top wiki contributors and a list of the most compelling user blog posts.  Usually I would write a unique post per site... but not today!  In the last month we've launched an internal tracking tool we call "Rubix" that allows us to monitor stats across the entire network. That means we can see not only how much a user contributes to Comic Vine, but also to Giant Bomb, Anime Vice and Tested.
 
So rather than give you stats from one site I thought it'd be fun to show the best contributors across all of Whiskey Media combined.

Top Wiki Contributors

Like a boss, Comic Vine and Screened wiki editors went to work in February.  St. Valentine could not slow these guys down.  Wiki fiends fesak, mike20 and aztek_the_lost made the most individual contributions (meaning the number of separate submissions) to our wiki. Cupid be damned, these guys have one desire, wiki madness!  

Rubix also allows us to track the number of new pages that go into our sites as well. Power contributor mike20 over on Screened is famous for creating brand new character pages.  In the first week of February alone we had over 400 new characters added to our wiki.  I can now happily report we closed out the month with 2,500 movie and TV show characters added to Screened's wiki. That is insane!

Top Wiki Point Earners

To the right you can see who earned the most wiki points. As you may or may not know we give the most points for filling out the actual wiki descriptions throughout the sites as opposed to adding images or info fields.  Gort (Screened) and FoxxFireArt (Anime Vice) are two of our most prolific writers and benefited hugely by earning big points in the wiki for filling in empty pages with excellent articles. Filling out pages with original content really makes a difference.

For example, check out Gort's work on Battle Star Gallactica; every episode has a full plot summary.  Also peruse FoxxFireArt's detailed article on One Piece and all of its ancillary characters. 
 

Most Active Wikis

I'm not surprised that Comic Vine leads in individual wiki contributions. Wednesday is comic book day and that site adds hundreds of both new and old comic books to our database each week.  We've also been laser focused on Wiki Task Queue initiatives at Comic Vine and Screened since January. On Comic Vine, we're trying to tighten up the style of existing pages, while on Screened we're still continuing to fill in the gaps. 

This week, the wiki task theme for Comic Vine is to clean up Green Lantern articles in anticipation of the upcoming Ryan Reynolds movie. Screened on the other hand is focused on "Hot Dudes", and you can thank user Christina for that.  She's getting over our "Hot Girls" theme from a couple weeks ago. Not to be left out, on Anime Vice we're going to grow the overall wiki contributions as we ramp up our Anime Style Guide and Anime Task Queue. 

As you'd imagine since Comic Vine and Screened get the most wiki edits, Comic Vine and Screened moderators have the most work to do.  Huge props to Icarusflies (Comic Vine), ScanCase (Screened) and ZombiePie (Giant Bomb) for being our top 3 wiki mods in February! They continue to make sure that new users know the rules when contributing to our sites. It's a pretty thankless job and you've got to have a certain kind of love for the subject matter to sift through both the good and bad that come from new users to the community.
