User:Lisured/One wiki

This is an open document. Anybody is free to participate.

Currently there are two wikis focused on Club Penguin – this one and the one hosted on wikia. This schism is less than optimal for many reasons and we should aim to unite these two communities.

Why is having two wikis bad?

Every content has to be created twice. If the people cooperated on one wiki they could write twice as many articles.

Which way should the merging go?

Why shouldn't we all just abandon this wiki and go work on wikia? Well wikia has many limitations such as not supported SWF files and doesn’t allow the things I propose lower. Custom wiki hosting will allow us advanced features wikia couldn’t even dream of.

How should it go?

First the administration will have to be merged. Don’t know which form of government cp.w has – needs research, if compatible.

Next the data. Unfortunately this will be very complicated. – how to automate it as much as possible?

What does wikia have and we don’t?

* Blogs

* Anything else?

What can this wiki offer

* CPWN Improvement Project

* project adamant – to be specified later

* better design – needs improvements, responsiveness

* https://scrollback.io/ as a chat would be nice, it also supports IRC as backend

* Little of Ads

Also the wikia functions missing on this wiki should be added to make the change for wikia users less intimidating.
