What motivates you guys? I mean, Leaving Wikia, due to a skin change? What would make you do that? 64.252.207.54 22:29, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 * Reduction in usable editing space, commercialization of the wiki, incompatibility with existing content... just to name a few. What is interesting is that a lot of content on wikia is not compatible with commercial use, and yet they are going ahead with it. 96.18.130.230 14:51, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

This wiki could be valuable, but it needs more work
First of all, navigation here is really bad. This wiki isn't just a backup of the forum at community wikia. It's the MAIN wiki about the AWA and a reference about people moving off wikia.


 * 1) We need to change titles (Special:Allpages) to be actual articles and not Forum:
 * 2) Redesign the main page so it is intuitive and direct links to the main parts of the wiki, with links that are clearly identifiable as links, not like how it's now: The big image in the middle is ok, but people will try to click on it thinking it would send them to a valuable page.
 * 3) We need manuals and content pages about doing the move off Wikia. We can't be just a link database. We need guides about moving, how to get dumps, how to install it on the different public hostings available, and important advices about the move so Wikia doesn't notice it too fast to revert and the community doesn't know about it.
 * 4) Make this wiki a site like "wikiindex", but for wikis that left Wikia. Every wiki his own article, with information about articles, hen moved, discussion, how many time until Wikia Staff demoted admins, what actions did Wikia Staff about the move, how successful was the move, etc.

And it needs to be done inmediately. We're losing valuable time to help users trying to leave Wikia!. --Ciencia Al Poder 20:04, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
