The '''Cross-Wiki Week''' is an annual event hosted by the [https://niwanetwork.org/ 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 $20 Nintendo eShop gift cards for participating! The 2023 Cross-Wiki Week took place from '''Saturday, 23 September, to Sunday, 1 October'''. For more info, please have a look [https://www.niwanetwork.org/cross-wiki-week-2023/ here]. If you want to participate, please be sure to register [https://forms.gle/qs7DaJ9QYmQYG7cB8 here].
