In the future, it would be useful to see how much the move affects traffic to the new site versus the old over time. Some sort of unbiased metric would have to be used though, because I've never trusted Alexa and certainly not now since the kind of people it includes are the same ones who have no idea the move occurred.

Revision as of 16:40, 27 October 2010

This page is part of WikiProject Disgruntled Former Wikia Fans.

If you wish to leave feedback or need assistance, please contact Wowpedia, as updates are unlikely to happen here.

To Wikia: If you love something, let it go. It's far easier to explain to the shareholders that way.

I think it's more than fine and fair to have wowpedia listed as a fan site, but this particular article is anything but unbiased. User:FrejyaFrejya 05:23, October 27, 2010 (UTC)
A little bit is biased, but hell, it even mentions the fact that wowpedia's up & down like a yoyo. Either way, I edited it. It should be fine now. Resa1983 (talk) 13:33, October 27, 2010 (UTC)
Polished it up a little more. It should be just fine now. User:FrejyaFrejya 14:57, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

Does WoWWiki have a neutrality check template? :D Plymouth (talk) 16:19, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

It does, and I included one last night which was subsequently removed. The edits you last made looked just fine to me. User:FrejyaFrejya 16:30, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

Wowwiki

At NO point did wowwiki admins request wikia remove wowwiki from their servers - wowwiki admins know CC-BY-SA too well to even ATTEMPT that stupidity. Freyja, you adding that section back is a blatant lie. Wowwiki admins asked for the domain name (which is completely separate), and even offered to purchase it, with Wikia saying no. I resent you posting your lies when you weren't even around for the negotiations. I'm replacing that section again.Resa1983 (talk) 16:21, October 27, 2010 (UTC)

RAAAAAAAGGGEEEEE!!!! Good Lord, calm down. Correct the section then and try to remain impartial while presenting both sides of the issue. It was my understanding that the admins here wanted wikia out of the site completely, which would seem to involve removing the site from their servers (otherwise wikia would still control the content and layout). If Wikia went ahead and gave up the domain name, you can bet they'd want another wow website, but having the 'wiki' still on the name of the old site would fly in the face of the ToU, specifically the Intellectual Property clause. I'm trying to present their side of the issue rather than presenting something that essentially resorts to 'they were evil, 'nuff said'. User:FrejyaFrejya 16:30, October 27, 2010 (UTC)
Don't be absurd. The Terms of Use does not dictate Wikia policy; it limits users, not Wikia. It is Wikia policy to not remove content from their site when a wiki leaves, that has nothing to do with the Wikia Terms of Use. --PcjGamepedia wiki manager (TDrop me a line!

Traffic

In the future, it would be useful to see how much the move affects traffic to the new site versus the old over time.
