Everipedia's High Traffic Crypto Project (2020)
You can find the list of pages to improve at the bottom of the spreadsheet in a tab titled "Pages to be created"
Everipedia's High Traffic Crypto Project ** (August 2020)** is a list of cryptocurrency-related topics for Everipedia pages which have high traffic potential (the potential to be read by thousands even millions.) Only pages found on this list will count towards the project (see the Pages to be Created sheet). [1]
Only editors who've been invited to the Top Editors group can participate in this project at this time.
If you don't know what that is, send William Goodwin (EwokABdevito) a message and he will explain how to prove yourself and get an invitation.
When you create a page make sure to visit the High Traffic Crypto Page Project Tracker and record your edits there.
You can only claim one page at a time.
Make sure to check the tracker and see if someone else is already editing the page.
This will help everyone keep track of their work and immediately know when a page has been approved.
It will also prevent duplicates and editing conflicts.

Cryptocurrency Page Template
The following is a general outline that can be used when creating high quality cryptocurrency pages:
- Title: The title should have the name of the token or platform if there is another page with the same title make sure the title is followed by the word "cryptocurrency" in parenthesis. Example, Cardano (cryptocurrency)
- Intro sentence: Briefly explain what this cryptocurrency is/does. What chain does it belong to? Is there something especially notable about this specific cryptocurrency? What type of token is it?
- Overview/Technology/Function: Explain in more detail what it does. Reiterate what’s been said in the intro, but elaborate more. What defines this cryptocurrency? When was it established? Try to gather all the essential general information into one place.
- Team: Add any info you can find out. How many on the team? Where are they located? Does anyone have previous experience with other well-known projects? Who are the founders?
- Tokenomic: The total supply? Did the company have an ICO? A private sale? Are they on any major exchanges? What is the value of the token? How is the token used in the protocol?
- Partnerships: Does this token have a partnership with anyone?
- Investors/Funding: Has anyone invested in the project? How did it get off the ground?
Infoboxes:
- Ticker Symbol: (Example: Everipedia’s ticker symbol is IQ)
- Date of launch: When did the project go live?
- Founder(s): Who founded the project?
- Consensus Mechanism: if there was one, example: EOS is Proof of Stake while Bitcoin is Proof of Work
- Partnerships: Who have they partnered with?
- Total Supply: How many tokens in total?
- All time high: What date was the token at its highest?
- All time low: What date was the token at its lowest?
- Investors: Has anyone invested in the project?
- Location: Where is the main headquarters located?
Anything else you can think of!
These should be as comprehensive as possible
