AlVan - I'm the leading man, you know. TALK - 23:02, 10 July 2011 (EDT) ...Or something to that effect. This is basically a forum base for fan-fiction and projects like the Keyblade War except smaller (or I guess you could do big stuff like that). I noticed recently that the fanon wiki isn't adequate for all cases. What if someone just wants to write about whatever they want in the KH series they can think of and let people comment? What it would be is forums with several subpages I you're worried about space. And for extra room, we don't have any uses left for the Keyblade War Forum and anything we post on the gummi garage can be posted at tWtnW. That'll make a lot of room, right? Comments?

Erry - Wretched SeeD TALK - -CESONIV SOCEW CESUL SOHTIF- + -FITHOS LUSEC WECOS VINOSEC- ~ 03:32, 11 July 2011 (EDT) I think Twilight Town Library is enough for fan-fiction. Big competitions like Keyblade War get their own forum. Small competitions are just part of the wiki, like Namine's Draw-off, etc. Unless we have them hosted off-site (Twitter, Youtube, etc.) So I find this forum proposal sort of redundant to the Twilight Town Library... because they're sort of the exact same thing.

Eternal Nothingness XIII - You have to be strong. Strength of heart will carry you through the hardest of trials. TALK - What I do, I do for friendship. — 08:55, 11 July 2011 (EDT) Twilight Town Library is meant for KH-RELATED discussion (the games; I think we need to re-establish this), NOT fan fiction. I don't think it's best we corrupt editors with fan-fic writing here, as that crowds the Recent Changes unnecessarily with multiple edits to a single sub-page in userspace (just look at the FF Wiki). I suppose we could create a forum similar to the FF Wiki's Sanctuary of Zi'tah, but I don't think it's necessary.

Erry - Fight and Away TALK - It is a massive shit taken on the display and functionality of the site purely to draw in more advertising cash. ~ 09:31, 11 July 2011 (EDT) Well then, make the new forum. I don't care. EDIT: OH ALVAN, WE HAVE THE KH FANON WIKI, so this would REALLY be redundant.

AlVan - I'm only...slightly interested TALK - {{{time}}} I know that we have a fanon wiki, but I checked it out las night and I read stories on the KH fanon wiki are made-up stories by the writer and we don not allow continuations on the overall story in Kingdom Hearts. That's not word-for-word but it was something like that. Not to mention that the fanon wiki has several unorganized pages related to the characters of whatever story they came up with. If you're worried about recent changes, then have something at the top of the base that says, Please write as much as you can each time and refrane from making several minor edits as it would "clog" the recent changes or something to that effect.

Nay to fanon materials. Like Erry said, we have the perfect spot for such topics: the Fanon Wiki. You claim it isn't the best place for such a thing, but it is. I understand the fanon requires that once you create a KH story idea you go somewhat in-depth with it (character profiles, world profiles, etc.) just so they don't have twenty random pages about nothing. I understand a reason not to go that route. However, have you thought of using their blogs? The KH Fanon Wiki uses Wikia Blogs, meaning once you create an account there, you can create/use a blog, if you like. Your ideas could be posted on your own user blog, and others could view/comment without a major problem. Try that route and see if you like it. Also, didn't you create an entire Wiki input KH fan fic over on kingdomhearts.wikia.com? But I digress, try the KH Fanon Wiki blogs or create your own Wiki for KH randomness.

LegoAlchemist - They changed "Snipe Magnet" to "Magnet Grab"? Who's translating this game, 4kids? TALK - Friendships are in direct contravention of mercenary conduct as delineated in your contracts, and on a personal note: I am very, very, disappointed with you. There's also the KH Fanfic Wiki, the KH Canon-Fanon Wiki, etc. AlVan is right on one account: We at the fanon wiki don't really encourage continuation of actual canon. The reason is simple: There would be too many Sora articles. And Riku articles. And random world articles. We're just trying to keep things clean there. So, yeah. If your fanfics feature characters such as Sora and Riku and continue from actual canon, don't post them on the mainspace, please. Xion is right, though; you can use userblogs for fanfics. I encourage it, in fact.

AlVan - I'm the leading man, you know. TALK - {{{time}}} All very good points but I must ask, have any of you guys thought about what we're gonna do with the Keyblade War forum? LA, when you say using your userspace, do you mean here or at one of the other wikis (many I did not know about). If it is here I think it's a great idea for people to start doing that, in fact, who has done that here already? Perhaps that could be our end of the year competition thing, you know, who's story is the best? What do you guys think?
