Due to some reason issues coming up. This vote seems to take relevance over other planned votes. First of all, as you may or may not know, Discussions here is going to fully replace forums. In this, many have described it as a twitter ripoff, and many have said that it has some major problems that can cause major inconvenience for us. For one, it has no connection to Wiki Activity or recent changes. Meaning it is like its own site on the wiki. Second, it has an RS feed, but this is limited, and hard to follow. Another major issue is the ability to report posts. It is a way for admin not to have to worry about discussions, but this feature can be abused, and get legit users in major trouble.This feature also does not support wikitext, and you can not post images or links wikitext links. It also is only made for mobile (With a few changes to fix this for desktop but idk how much). This feature will also slowly take down message walls and blogs.
This vote is to formally condemn Discussions, and to, if Discussions does pass, have a vote to leave wikia all together.
{{s}} Yes to formally Condemning Discussions {{O}} No to condemnation
Voting is open until 20 users vote, and will stay open after official count.
With a yes vote, we will add this banner to the wiki main page in defiance of their overreach.
This wiki does not support the new Discussions feature, and will find an alternative to Discussions if this is implemented. | |
