Board Thread:Wiki Management/@comment-7530765-20150514203013

'Note: Doing this in a thread because no one reads blog posts. This stays in wiki management as it is an overview of how the wiki would improve.'

Yeah... The title says it all. I'm retiring tomorrow. Why? Today, we are giving a general, yet deep overlook at what makes the wiki go donwhill and how it could improve.

Swears
For our first topic, we have swears. I don't oppose allowing swears, but I think we shouldn't allow the f word. Look at what the fnaf wiki became. Everyone are jerks that swear and insult others. I don't have much to say, so let's jump to our next topic.

Sockpuppetry
I don't approve how Buzzy says we can ban suspected socks. I think this should only be done when ABSOLUTELY necessary. Mura called me abuser for banning a suspected sock. Seriously, WTF?

Responsibilty
Mura himself confirmed how they had users with innapropiate usernames and/or prof pics, yet they didn't report to wikia staff. Wow, great going, this wiki has earned the tiel to the most un-responsible users ever.

Lazyness
Oh, a good topic. There are a LOT of projects (voting threads) that once supports won, the respective thing wasn't done by the staff. 'Nuff said.

Jerks, idiots, etc.
Let's take Bearjedi and TCLP as an example. Bearjedi first: He:


 * Trolled


 * Bullied


 * Was a jerk and was conscious of it.


 * Threatened to block me and Gaspar for 3 days.


 * Lied and threatened me with stupid screenshots.


 * Kept saying Gaspar was a sockpuppet of me to bully Carp.

All of this in less than 1 hour! Yet he said he should've been banned for ONE DAY! And called me an abuser! Next, TCLP:

He said he'll run for chat mod, not identifying how bad at modding he is and how bad he would be in general, yet he doesn't recognize it and says he'll go for chat mod as soon as he can. That's another reason why I'm retiring. Learn from your errors. Also, the next time he misbehaves, he is supposed to be banned for 3 days.

Homophobes
ARGH! I'll like to name Drek.

"ZERO tolerance to this. You guys just getting closer to break the PvZ Wiki Rules. Wow, can't believe that this wiki's going down..."

- Him opposing the allowing LGBT references thread.

And:

"BTW, this is the reason why I rarely go to chat. I'm worried about you guys using things like these. I plain hate them.

Also, I go to chat just because I want to share some link to blog post/forum threads. Nothing more.

Keywords:

-I hate things related to these. Swears, whatever. Just a no-no. Censor w/asterisk is still tolerated though. Unless to express hate to someone who tries to destroy this wiki.

-I won't tolerate anything related to LGBT.

-NSFW content or nudity is intolerable, and rather annoying too.

Even if I make an Indonesian version of PvZ wiki (id.plantsvszombies.wikia.com), I'll put the rules to NOT write/say anything related to these."

- Him on allowing swear words thread

I HATE this guy. How did he even earn forum mod?

==How could this wiki improve?==

The final review. Here we go: If it reaches 10 points, this wiki is officially dying.

Swears - 0

Sockpuppetry - 2

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">Jerks, idiot, etc (includes homophobes) - 2 ATM with Bearjedi down.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">So, there you go. This wiki is one step and it will go downhill completely.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">Welp.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">That was it.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">I'd like to thank Gaspar and DcD for the good times.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">I'd like to give a spotlight to drek to be the person I officially hate the most.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">I'll stick with rollback and do one or two edits on mainspace to keep my day streak.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">Until then...

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">I guess this will be my last "Beya".

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">Thanks, PvZ wiki.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">Do NOT leave any messages at my talk.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">This isn't a prank, an elaborate troll, or any of that other bullcrap.

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">Until then...

<p style="color:rgb(0,0,0);margin-bottom:0px!important;">Farewell.
