→Wiki Forum pages: okay to remove
Imho, I propose and think we should get rid of by deleting the entire old Forum wiki areas as well as clean up the main home page. On main Home Page, getting rid of the section "Forums" and both linked Help Desk and Watercooler. Instead use the "Community" section to list "Forums" like I have already done, and then create a Wiki page of that to give brief description in Wiki what it is as well as a link to ingame Forums. No longer need a duplicated area to be found ingame and in Wiki. Also under that "Community" adding a new ''Wiki Discussions'' area intended to solely be used to discuss wiki pages and all other wiki related issues and problems. Can then actually put this ''Wiki Discussions'' page(s) named as Forum:Wiki_Discussions so that all related topics will be created under that main heading. Can even input a create box that will automatically create the page correctly to be named as such under Forum:<createpage> that any editors input into that box field. Ideally would also like to have all actual Discussion pages linked and generated here as well, but not sure I will be able to go that far. So that would be a possible later thing or not. Thoughts?

: Hi Kevin, that is fine with me. I don't think I ever used those forum pages, preferring to go to the talk pages for specific articles as with regular Wikipedia. So as long as we still have talk pages, then we can use that for specific technical details. As for Fandom, it's up to you all how much longer you want to keep that around. I'll continue to work on efforts here in the meantime. [[User:Miyuki|😸Miyuki]] ([[User talk:Miyuki|talk]]) 20:33, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
