We'll have to see. Perhaps we can set a criterion somewhere, or not. That and real-world coverage.  BLUER   一番   15:43, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

I assume that includes stuff like coverage of interviews and VA and developer profiles and that kind of thing, right? -- Neumannz ,  The Dark Falcon  15:49, November 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * Acceptable fan content is up debate. Same as real world. How much substantial info would it add to the fan community of KH? Its up for debate. As for that crippling KHfanon, depends on what KHfanon contains.  BLUER   一番   15:57, November 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * About adding fanon content, I think the more topnotch material should be allowed - Avastar: Kingdom Hearts, for example. maggosh 16:04, November 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * Uh uh, no way! We are not having fanon stuff on this wiki. I approve of having articles on voice actors, but fanon will have to stay on the Twilight Town Library. SeanWheeler 17:45, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

That may not be up to me, but I still don't like it. Putting fanon stuff on this wiki will make it as unreliable as Uncyclopedia. If we want to attract fans, we wouldn't be putting up lies and confuse them. SeanWheeler 18:07, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

@SeanWheeler: I think you're being overzealous and confusing the point of the two wikis. The current KH Wiki - the one that is moving - is intended to be purely devoted to official information on the main articles, and unofficial topics are contained on things like the forums. Once the wiki moves, the Wikia-Wiki will change in some way to differentiate the two; having it be a fan-oriented database is, I think, a good idea.18:21, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

Well, I don't really want to move. You know yesterday, I looked at the Oasis skin, and it is starting to look better. Sora's page is still readable, and so is Donald and Goofy's. In fact I looked at the forum, and it looks good. Wikia is improving the skin. Fixing the bugs. And we still have Monobook. SeanWheeler 18:29, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

1) Once again, this isn't just about us not liking the skin (though that is a big part of it). It's about how Wikia is forcing the skin on us, and that readers are still stuck with Oasis. The only thing Oasis has over Monobook (to me) is a better recent changes page, which readers won't see much anyway. 2) If you don't want to move, then don't. No one's making you. I you want to keep voting on TKW, fine, do that, but do it on the oved wiki (or the original one if they continue the contest as well).-- Lapis  Scarab   18:36, November 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * porplemontage owns this site, in which you can find out other wiki's he helps with. What was the domain you guys agreed to? Bud0011 20:21, November 7, 2010 (UTC).

Too bad that new site doesn't have Monaco! Why couldn't people get Monaco on their new sites if they miss Monaco so much? SeanWheeler 22:33, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

Well, I'm coming in late to this section, but I support this new turn, although the KHWikia wiki would still stay high up on a google listing with all its activity. That could be a problem. Second, who the hell set up the db? Thirdly, this answer is a little late, but to anyone out there who still dislikes the move because it would be "wasting all that hard work we put into it" is wrong. That is crap. To put it in a simple form, pretend that there are two folders on your hardrive, nothing else. One is named kingdomhearts.wikia.com, and the other is named new wiki. Now suppose that the Wikia folder is full of files, documents and images and such, and that the new wiki folder is completely empty. Moving is basically highlighting everything in the wikia folder, copying it, and then pasting it in the new wiki folder. Nothing was lost in this process. Finally, Sean, the new sight can't have Monaco because Monaco is not a public skin. It is owned by Wikia (if this has changed, please inform me).

Okay, I looked at the Anti-Wikia Alliance database and Kingdom Hearts Wiki isn't up there. Don't we need to register to the Anti-Wikia Alliance to move? SeanWheeler 23:35, November 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * Not a requirement, just a really good idea. Bud0011 23:51, November 7, 2010 (UTC).

First of all, TNE actually originally singed us up for the AWA. Second, the AWA is in no way offical. Third, why would we have to register with them to move? Fourth, I like the idea, but don't listen much to me, as I will no longer exist, er... inexistent on kingdomhearts.wikia.com. AND, for all noobs reading this: do not start doing fanon stuff yet. Nothing is hammered out.


 * I also wonder why Wikia would let people put forums like that on community central. In fact, why don't they threaten to block all the patriots? Sannse, a Wikia staff member responded on our forums without threatening us. Remember when we thought we were going to lose Monobook until I discovered the week before the deadline that we are keeping it? Maybe they were planning on losing it, then they decided to keep it when fans complained. And also Oasis' purpose is to improve accessability on Wikia. It has a few bugs but they are improving it. Look, Wikia is more lenient compared to us and the patriots. In fact, they may even give us back Monaco at a later time. SeanWheeler 01:36, November 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * Um, no, they said that Monaco is gone for good. It will never return.  And, if you read anything at the top of the AWA page, Wikia knows that it wouldn't do any good to delete the content.  It would still exist and would most likely be restored.  The patriots aren't banned as it would violate Wikia's banning policy.
 * @Inexistent: "fanon" =/= "fan-based". -- 01:53, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, maybe Monaco is gone for good, but we still have Monobook. And the reason why they switched to Oasis was because some people didn't like Monaco. And they wanted some way to improve the site. They didn't mean to shove a bad skin down our throats. They are improving Oasis for better navigation. SeanWheeler 02:06, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

ARG ARG ARG. For the like 10th time, only the registered users will see Monobook, anons will see Oasis, and they will format their edits accordingly.  Chitalian  8   02:10, November 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * That is not the point. Wikia is improving Oasis. They are trying to make Oasis easier for newer Users. They are trying to help improve their site. Oasis just takes getting used to. That's all. SeanWheeler 02:16, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

The thing is, they're not changing the core issues, like the reduced width, as well as the adjusted galleries. This isn't about getting used to, it's about actually making the wiki look like crap.  Chitalian  8   02:29, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Sean, enough. The move has been decided, there is no changing that. Either give ideas for where we should move, what the original Wikia should become, or stay out of the discussion, you're making us go in circles. And by the way, we know they didn't mean for the skin to suck as gloriously as it does, but they totally meant to force it on us. You can't "accidentally force something on someone.02:34, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Not to beat a dead horse, but this is my summery on the situation:
 * Wikia is a horribly company that cares nothing for the fan's that contribute to it's community. For example, see this. Wikia buy's wikis with empty promises and lies, and then forces it, along with all wiki's under it, to have it to use wikia own's extensions and customizations. Being on your own would give you more control over the wiki and be run by actual fans, not faceless cooperations. Bud0011 02:38, November 8, 2010 (UTC).

Calling Wikia "horrible" and "faceless" is a bit of an exagerration. They are honestly trying to give the layout an easier interface. It works on some levels, and I see where they are going. However, the fact that this is such a template-heavy wiki gives us problems, since we have formatted so many of our changes to Monaco/Monobook. But to accuse them of such things as "empty promises and lies" is a huge overstatement.  Chitalian  8   02:43, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Sean, Oasis was not started because people didn't like Monaco. Wikia has a tendency to update things that need no update... but they went to far this time.

Well...I read all the posts in here thus far, and have to agree with the majority who feel the wiki should be moved...I just want to know where...I saw Wikkii got the most votes, so is that where KHWiki is going, or is it going to the site from porplemontage? Eyestothesky 11:58, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Revoting

 * I also wouldn't be opposed to a revote. The Oasis skin is horrible, but I don't like changes such as moving. Also I think merging with the fanon wiki would be a terrible idea. Even if we move, we should protect the wiki from vandals. Having fanon on this wiki would encourage vandals to put fanon stuff on the facts pages such as the Unknown from Birth by Sleep being Ansem the Wise (that happened once). Also I would want the Wikia Wiki to be no different than the new wiki. SeanWheeler 20:34, November 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * ...Sean, that is the worst possible idea for what to do with the wikia wiki.(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  21:04, November 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * My guess is that many people here haven't experienced Wiki's outside of Wikia. Bud0011 21:10, November 8, 2010 (UTC).

Well, maggosh stopped the fricken' revote, so now that is useless, and, guys: THE WHOLE POINT OF MOVING IS SO THAT THE WIKIA WIKI REMAINS HERE TO BE CHANGED IN A MANNER THAT MAKES IT MORE FAN BASED. HAVE YOU READ ANY OF THE BLOODY PREVIOUS CONVERSATION? KRYTEN IS RIGHT, CAPSLOCK IS FUN.

Bloody hell, what does everyone keep saying the word "official"? We are not official in any way. Seriously guys, if we were the official KHWiki, SE would be hosting us, not Wikia.

MV undefined

Popping in here for a second. You aren't having a re-vote because one person who voted originally, doesn't want another vote? I fail to see the logic in how that is fair. One could easily deny the re-vote just because the option they would vote for anyway, was the winner of the previous vote. I do not, personally, know what he voted for but, does that really matter? It is still unfair on the aforementioned basis.--Zyeriis 03:25, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

I know I'm just an anon, and thus my opinion may not be taken very seriously. I've been a visitor and reader (I've even made some edits) of this wiki for some time now. I completely understand and agree with the decision to move. I like the Square-Enix Portal idea the most, as that seems to benefit the most wikis, including yourselves. I also agree with Zyeriis, just because maggosh doesn't want a re-vote, that automatically means the rest of you can't? Shouldn't the majority rule? The majority ruled with the original vote, so why can't the majority rule with the vote on taking a re-vote? Again, I'm just an anon, but I have been reading this thread for while, since about a week before Oasis became the default. 66.215.20.249 03:44, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

So do we have a plan yet, or no?Mar 03:45, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

So yeah...um...Like that anon, I'm not much more than a casual user, and sometime editor (ffwiki, obliviowiki, wowwiki, not here yet), but like many others despise the changes wikia has been making. Personally, I feel moving is probably best for the quality of the wiki. Irregardless, I have to agree with Zyeriis; it's pretty crazy that there isn't going to be a revote because just 1 person doesn't want to...I could understand if half the people didn't...but this is just one person...it's clear that a revote is wanted... Eyestothesky 05:27, November 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * Okay, guys, I don't think you understand how the revote decision was working. In real life, if you don't like the results of an election, you can't just say, "Well, the previous vote didn't count", and keep voting until you get what you want. The revote decision wasn't a vote in and of itself, it was a statement that those who voted last time wanted their votes thrown out. That's not a decision that anyone but them can make, and it's not fair to have them be ignored just because you don't agree with their vote.
 * But anyway, maggosh has rescinded his declination, so as soon as the other voters agree to the revote, it can proceed. (Arg, right as I had arranged free time to install on wikkii, too.)(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  13:46, November 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well that was the point...I don't understand. Your example isn't identical to this situation for starters. Note: I am completely aware that "arguing" further about this, is absolutely pointless but I have some free time while I am relaxing after work. How do I put this...why would someone agree to the re-vote, if what they previously chose, won. The other people who clearly wish to change their vote based on previously unknown options (the options were options prior to the original vote, they were just not on the ballot) would cause this person to make sure that they get their way by simply saying no to the re-vote (You are voting on whether or not to re-vote, which I simply can't seem to understand). How is re-voting, ignoring their votes? Are the banned from re-voting as well? Again, I completely fail to see how "wanting their votes thrown out" is any different than re-voting.--Zyeriis 21:20, November 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh please Got no.(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  16:47, November 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * Here is what lies in front of you, based on the amount i've learned in the past month:
 * Move to an independent server - See this for a list of Pro's and Cons.
 * a) Move to prople's server - Don't need to pay for his service, and he is an experienced wiki host (He owns SMW, SSB Wiki).
 * b) Move to an independent server (other than prople's) - Pay for service if not externally hosted by a benefactor.
 * Move to another Wiki farm - have a similar to the one relationship with Wikia, but with better staff. Don't have to pay for their service, as it is ad based. See this for more information
 * a) Move to shoutwiki - one of the most popular Wiki farms.
 * b) Move to Wikkii - Seems to be a decent Warm.
 * Stay here and learn to deal with the skin

 * For any one who doesn't know, See here for the SEIWA idea.
 * Also, Do you guys plan on making a new thread for revoting? Bud0011 08:27, November 12, 2010 (UTC).

I agree with the revoting. I really hate how Oasis is forcing people to move. I don't want to move because the only wiki sites I go to are NIWA, Wikipedia, and Wikia. I don't want to move to a new wiki site. The anons could create accounts can't they? And also turning this into a fanon wiki would drive away people who want facts and research. Also people could get used to it after a while, although it could take longer it is pretty awful. There are a few people who like it. I am not ready to move. I would revote to stay on wikia. SeanWheeler 01:54, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Sean... what are you not getting here? We are not moving just because of Oasis. And you mentioned that you mainly visit Wikipedia (not a Wikifarm site), Wikia (obviously), and the NIWA. We want to make our own version of the NIWA with Square Enix wikis. And what is wrong with moving to a new sight? '''We are not losing any info, or Monaco. The only thing we will lose are our edit counts, but a good editor shouldn't really care about that.''' And dude, anons can create accounts on every thing that runs MediaWiki. Or do you mean that the anons could edit? Because, if you haven't noticed, they do that here, too. '''Next, THIS IS NOT GOING TO TURN INTO A FANON WIKI. HAVE YOU READ ANY OF THE ABOVE CONVERSATION? And the other point of that is that people come to the new site for the facts and information.''' After delibarating for so long now, most people have decided that moving is the better option. Please consider what I have said.

On an unrelated note, this reminds me of the American Civil War. Everyone thinks it was because of slavery (our Oasis), when it was honestly that and a lot more. Hear that, Sean? -- 02:44, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Except Inexistent's wrong, this is all about Oasis, that and the fact that Wikia doesn't listen to it's own community. We may try and say it's something more than that, but in truth it really isn't. I mean seriously, do you mean to tell me that if Wikia suddenly opened it's ears and brought Monaco back this second and everything went back to the way it was, you would still be adament about moving?-- 02:50, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Well, like Silva said, this is like the Civil War. Sure, Oasis sparked it, but it lead us to see other things, like our expansion requiring something more, and Wikia's unfair hosting practices. And, through this dividing war, we have seen the fact that we can now be better off another way. So yes, Oasis started this movement, but it isn't the whole problem.

When you aren't forced to look at it, you don't tend to notice it. If Wikia is jerking us around discreetly from the shadows, the end-users don't notice it. Plop a new skin that ruins everything in front of them, and they'll revolt. That's what's going on here--because people can see the change now, they look at the bigger picture and see just what Wikia's doing. So x  ra  ]] 04:37, November 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * WE WILL NOT LOSE OUR EDIT COUNTS. IT IS COMPLETELY POSSIBLE TO EXPORT EVERYTHING, AND IT HAS BEEN DONE ALREADY.

Oh and about the last comment, I don't know if we are getting funding or not. A wiki gets funds from those advertisements right? Well I don't trust ads. Let's just get back on topic. Are we revoting or not? SeanWheeler 15:25, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

You forgot no. 3: "Stay here and deal with the skin". SeanWheeler 20:45, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

HAVE YOU PAID ANY DAMN ATTENTION? Sean, please, listen to me this time. Nothing is changing, except the address you type in at the top of the screen. Kryten even said that Wikia will let us use Monaco. Heck, Wikia might even be proud enough to let us port in Oasis for those who really think that it is beneficial. BUT, on top of that, we are moving FOR SURE. The revote is for WHERE TO MOVE. We're moving no mater what, comprende?

Can someone clarify if you guys are moving? /sarcasm Are you going to re-vote anytime soon, seems like things aren't progressing at all at the moment.--Zyeriis 01:39, November 16, 2010 (UTC)

Part of the reason we're not getting anywhere is because some people have decided to completely ignore the previous comments and explainations [cough] SeanWheeler [cough], and we have to keep explaining the same thing over and over again. Comments like that aren't helping move the discussion along either, Zyeriis. I don't know why people insist on asking if we've decided this yet. When we do it will be made known to the entire wiki, you don't need to keep bogging down the forum by asking the same questions.02:26, November 16, 2010 (UTC)

Well... why don't we make a seperate page for the revote (say, Where will we go?/Revote), so that it remains pure voting, and the useless discussion can stay on this page.

@Lapis: All the more reason, trying to discuss things on this page is pointless. If people aren't reading the page, it's because it's too long. What I fail to comprehend is why there hasn't been a page created for the revote yet, with all of the information clearly listed rather than scattered throughout this and other pages. As for bogging down the forum...I'm not really sure where I've repeatedly asked the same question(s). I may have brought up a similar question or the same question once before but I don't think that counts as bogging anything down. If you weren't refering to me in particular I don't think you should've used the word: "you". Again, I am having a difficult time understanding a discussion that appears to be stuck in a loop when it would be much simpler to create the re-vote page with the aforementioned information, and when someone asks, direct them there, rather than expect them to sift through this entire page. --Zyeriis 03:14, November 16, 2010 (UTC)

I was referring to commentors like you and SeanWheeler who, instead of just reading the forum and seeing that their questions have been asked and answered several times before, ask them again, which bogs down the discussion. And they would know that they were doing this is they bothered to read the forum. We're not typing this for our own amusement. This is an important subject; if you're too lazy to read the bloody thing, you shouldn't be taking part in the discussion. I don't mean to sound hostile, but I'm fed up with this. This discussion is stuck in a loop, and it is the same type of repetitive questions you are asking thathas caught it in that loop.

Ugh, anyway, that's a good idea, The_Inexistent. Though I'm giving fair warning here; repetitive questions like this added to that forum will either be moved here or just flat out removed if it happens enough times. We need to get this settled.03:29, November 16, 2010 (UTC)


 * SO, since the revote is set to go ahead, and we keep going in circles, and we've gone through our options several times, I went ahead and made the revote page. Please don't get angry at me, but where I come from, if someone doesn't do something once they think of it, it doesn't get done at all.  NOTICE, though, that I said that the admins control its running, so don't do anything stupid.  And, no, Sean, Staying is NOT an option.

Yes, No, Don't Know?
So as a casual visitor to this Wiki, I've been following this discussion with some confusion and don't really have any clear understanding. Is this Wiki actually moving or not? Yes? No? Don't know? As for me, I like most of the changes that have been made to Wikia - I find most of them very helpful and don't really miss what was taken away anymore. Agent0042 16:35, November 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks, that clears it up. I'll keep an eye out and watch for the revote. Agent0042 04:21, November 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * I have one other question - once the move happens, what happens to the content that's at this address? I mean, obviously, if we're moving, then that would mean something goes from here to somewhere else. So does everything on here just get deleted, at which point the address kingdomhearts.wikia.com becomes an empty shell, ready for someone else to swoop in, should they decide that they want to be the one to host the Wiki for Kingdom Hearts on Wikia? Agent0042 11:05, November 15, 2010 (UTC)


 * I see. Well, in that case, it seems to me that someone who's perfectly fine with the layout as is could easily request adminship from Wikia and maintain a Wiki at this address. Agent0042 17:45, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

 * :) So, do I, wish them the best of luck. I'd consider it myself if it weren't for the fact that I have almost no edits here, though that's mainly a matter of just choosing to focus on other projects, rather than a lack of knowledge. Agent0042 19:47, November 15, 2010 (UTC)

.

As a matter of fact, one of the major debates right now is what will become of this address. You can read more about that further up this page.--66.215.20.249 02:17, November 16, 2010 (UTC)

Why?
Im sorry but i do not understand whats going on, this is ridiculous, why do we need to move, what benefit will we gain?, and i dont see any need for Fanon, the wiki's are about information, this is a wiki first Rhysno1 16:43, November 17, 2010 (UTC)

Yes. Yes, it is just you. -- Neumannz ,  The Dark Falcon  22:49, November 17, 2010 (UTC)
