Revision as of 17:59, 2 October 2011
This should be seen as a general discussion: I want all administrators, moderators, etc to see this.
In all seriousness, you at this wiki should take yourself more, er, seriously. I have a few ideas to distance yourself from the Keyhole, and they should be listened to, etc.
- Walkthrough Namespace: This should be made immediately, because if you want to have guides that are professional and truly be seen as an encyclopedia, like Bulbapedia, you should make this space and allow anyone to make a good-quality walkthrough that can benefit the wiki.
- Home Page: You should make this stand out more. The page is bland and only in two main colours: white and yellow. Use more colours and make it more unique.
- Userboxes: First, since this is an encyclopedia, you should remake the userboxes using a clever quote with it, like with the Sora userbox, it should say something like: "This user is the chosen wielder of the Keyblade", with every userbox starting with or containing "This user". Also, the Categories for fan-stuff, like Category: Users who are fans of Sora" should be deleted immediately.
Well, there are more ideas that I haven't discussed yet, so please, discuss! SidVI 07:30, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- While I can agree with points 1 and 2 (In fact, point 2's being worked on already), I don't agree with point 3. The fan stuff is in the userspace, not the main content, so it shouldn't really be of any concern. -- Some Color Mage ~ (Talk) 08:38, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- And so is point 1. And then both projects stopped... Seriously guys. We need to do this, especially the walkthrough since it's probably the one thing we need to revive activities on this wiki. The17Master 09:47, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

1) We're working on that. 2) We're working on that. 3) I don't really like that idea. For one thing, we already use the quotes, and jarringly tacking on "This user" seems pointless. Not to mention that the boxes are used for talk pages, forums, user pages, etc. - i.e. places that aren't the mainspace. As for the category boxes, they're for user pages, not the mainspace, so they're not a problem. LapisLazuliScarab15:49, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

For no. 3: I meant like this userbox (copied from the Final Fantasy Wiki). Something like that. It is clever and it works, and since this are an encyclopaedic wiki, the clever work would give a brief description of the character, like with this userbox.
This user is the keyblade's chosen one. |
For no. 1), everyone can have a chance to make a walkthrough with the intention to educate and guide the masses, the intended walkthrough mainspace should be completed. For no. 2), the main page must be remade to easily link to all relevant pages and differentiate from the Keyhole. About images, find the image by using a different source from the Keyhole. For the help templates, I agree with ENX and descriptions on how the page could be expanded, etc. SidVI 16:23, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
- Concerning the "image war"... If the images are official, both sites are allowed to use them (there was forum about about that).
- And about "why are they allowed to use our stuff?". WE elected to copy the content to here. We, however, do to the nature of wikis, could not elect to have the previous content deleted (and they couldn't delete either, even if they wished to).
