Forum:SH Archive/State of the Wiki Address :)

Certain real-life events may prevent me from paying enough attention to Wookieepedia in the near future. So here's a brief rundown of what I consider important directions of Wookieepedia development, so to speak.
 * 1) FA: simply put, the current system is vulnerable to a massive flood of "technically good" articles. The trend appears to have slowed down, but we nevertheless need countermeasures &mdash; even if it means out-of-the-blue administrative actions.
 * 2) GA: needs more "advertising". Needs a dedicated maintainer.
 * 3) Inquisitorius: when these people were holding meetings, we had a sudden burst of IRC activity that was ultimately beneficial for Wookieepedia and the community. I see no major problems with its current setup, but:
 * 4) * More activity, damn it! If you don't feel like being an Inquisitor, please resign so we can choose a more active one.
 * 5) * The election process should be more transparent, I think. The community, for example, may suggest a pool of good would-be Inquisitors.
 * 6) ID: no changes are necessary. If there are too few candidates, we simply don't have an ID for that week.
 * 7) Other media:
 * 8) * Don't forget to maintain the Wikia Blogs via MediaWiki:Blog snippet (for FAs, currently).
 * 9) * The Wookiee-Cast: I trust Fourdot and the direction in which he is going.
 * 10) * We should think about stable versions of articles, in preparation for a possible CD/paper Wookieepedia.
