Forum:CT Archive/Major and Minor Fansites

The current consensus on articles regarding fan sites is that major sites have their own article while minor sites are only listed on the List of fan sites article.

I'd like to propose that we allow all Star Wars fan sites to have their own article on Wookieepedia, provided that:
 * they have their own proper domain name. Eg. not geocities.com/luke_skywalker's_eye_color.
 * they will be categorized under "Minor fan sites", keeping "Major fan sites" reserved for TFN, etc.

There is no harm in having articles for the smaller sites. It might actually be beneficial; better for community relations at any rate. We can still be encyclopedic while maintaining a good relationship with the entire Star Wars community.

Let's hold a vote.

Minor fan sites should have their own articles, provided that they have a proper domain name, and will fall under the "Minor fan sites" category.

 * Oh, I've lost track by now what's minor and what's not. We were a minor site once, so let's give them a chance. -- SFH 04:44, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I have no problem with letting them each have one page. But if they start spreading like fungus, with their members posting vanity articles about their forum leaders and their game modifications and such, they must be smacked down. &mdash;Darth Culator   (talk)  05:06, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree; only one article per minor website. If they begin making articles about their members, mods, etc, they will just be redirected and locked to their main article. --Azizlight 05:24, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
