{{TheFifteenthMember|time={{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 10:17, 21 September 2014 (UTC)|persuade=Okay then, we're going for a revival instead of a disbandment. The Strategy Wiki shares the same view. In terms of the "SEWA" idea, I'm against it. If I'm not mistaken, the original purpose of SEIWA was to show that independent Wikis can be just as successful as wiki-farms so it'll be hypocritical to start accepting Wikia wikis as members too.}}

{{Bud0011|time=23:18, 21 September 2014 (UTC)|text=Good day everyone. For those of you who don't know me, I host the server SEIWA is currently residing on. I have had to retire from working on the site, forums and wikis for health and other reasons, but have asked [http://grifkuba.net/forums/showteam.php my team] to take over. While they are all capable members in terms of Wiki- and Server-related issues, they are short in the knowledge of the Square Enix company (franchises, partners, etc.). They are more than willing to help with whatever is needed. We just need help on the SE end.}}
{{KeybladeSpyMaster|time=01:05, 22 September 2014 (UTC)|text=Well, SEWA was just an idea to unite all the Square Enix wikis. However, if we can make do with just the independent ones, than that's great! As for the SE end, I think we can all pitch in and help. For example, the Square Enix Wiki, as I understand, is an extension of the SEIWA hub. Surely we can fill in the parts for our respective wikis and series' sections. I think that'd be it, since the independent wikis, I guess, are all "every wiki for itself". Of course, if there were a way to use SEIWA and its revival to encourage editing (without violating the "Independent" part) on the less-active wikis, than that's just as great, too! Now, how would such a revival take place? What is it that we need to do to pretty-up SEIWA take it to its goal?}}
{{KeybladeSpyMaster|time=01:44, 19 October 2014 (UTC)|TRON=Well, it's been almost a month since we last touched this subject. I really want to do this, I just don't know what needs to be done, exactly. Like, how can we help to make this work? Independently, after a discussion on the IRC, we decided that one thing that definitely needs a change is SEIWA's main page [http://www.seiwanetwork.org]. So, I've gone ahead and made a mock draft of a design on Photoshop. Here they are: [http://1drv.ms/1vLWcEa <font color=#FFFFFF>Draft 1</font>] and [http://1drv.ms/1nuSZWV <font color=#FFFFFF>Draft 2</font>]. I personally like Draft 2. Draft 1 is modeled somewhat after the NIWA site, but I chose to keep a solid dark background like the one currently present on the SEIWA site. Draft 2 simply rearranges the content so that it's not so NIWA-ish. I learned a little HTML/CSS in junior high, so I'm gonna try and build the design, at least. Or, you know, pretend I can.
There's one other thing. Something's wrong with the Square Enix Wiki. I can't sign-up for an account, neither can I edit anonymously. That should be changed, so that there's more activity possible.}}
{{TheFifteenthMember|time={{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 13:33, 19 October 2014 (UTC)|default=Both drafts are gorgeous, but Draft 2 is better since it's more original. Your draft brings up another point: social media. Is there anything we can do with SEIWA, facebook, twitter, instagram, and tumblr-wise?
If I can go by [http://seiwanetwork.org/wiki/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&offset=&limit=500 this], it seems like account creation was disabled due to a vandal.}}
{{KeybladeSpyMaster|time=03:42, 21 October 2014 (UTC)|TRON=Ok, so I made [http://seiwanetwork.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1875 this] forum in the hopes that other people, especially those originally involved with the movement, can give their thoughts and a direction. I don't intend to replace this forum with the one on the SEIWA forums. I think/hope people from the other wikis will respond and get involved with this issue if it's over there.}}
I never intended to return from the grave, but here I am. I seem to be the sole proprietor of the SEIWA Facebook page from ages hence. Who shall I give it to, assuming there is an attempt to save SEIWA? {{The Inexistentsig}} 23:43, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
:It is done. KSM has it now. Farewell again, friends. {{The Inexistentsig}} 00:21, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
