WERTPERCH'S PERPETUAL NODING CHALLENGE

Rewards! for Nodeshell Filling! Blessings Available!

I have many nodeshells, created over many, many years; too many for me to fill, as you may clearly see from the list below. Since December 2004, I have decided to enlist help in filling them.To that end, I created this list, partly so I can see what's happening, and partly to give others ideas for noding.


Nodeshells To Fill ~ Completed Entries


  • If you fill anything, do let me know so I can strike it roughly off the "to-do" list!

  • The challenge rules are simple - simply fill one of these (my current nodeshells) with something relevant. Even if you fill a nodeshell of mine that's not in this list, please do let me know!

  • Factuals (I prefer factuals over anything else ☺)should be well researched, well formatted and suitable for all readers (see Writing for a Wider Audience). Aim for completeness, but don't feel you have to go over-the-top and write everuthing.

  • It's well known that I like a good, readable format, so lots of nice white space and subheadings (bold only, please - none of those dreaded tags) will be smiled upon, especially in the longer writeups.

  • It goes without saying that I expect you to have spell-checked and proofread your work before letting me know. If I find gross errors of grammar or whatnot, I will be sorely vex'd. Non-factual stuff may be creative, funny, quirky or what-have-you - use your imagination, I know you have one in there!

  • I've decided to extend the closing date indefinitely - feel free to let me know as and when you complete one!

  • Provided your work meets the basic criteria, you're guaranteed a C! from me, and maybe other blessings too - GP, votes or whatnot if you really strike a chord with me. Obviously it's at my discretion.

  • When you have posted your work, do let me know that you have done so, and that it is for this challenge even if you realise later. I'll credit you in the list here. 

    If you have any questions or other comments, or think that any of the nodeshells are irrelevant, duplicated or just plain wrong, please /msg me (thanks to ariels for pointing some out already).

Sadly, since starting, I have added almost as many new ones as have been completed. When I began there were in excess of 670. As I write this, we're at 614 601, with 220 227 completed *sigh*. (As of 8 October 2023 we're at 235 completed and 592 to do. I shan't add more to the list because dayum that's enough already.)


Note that there's a list of OH GOD, I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS NOT NODED in jessicapierce's drafts too.
