Editing Forum:Community vote - fanon

As most of you are probably aware, the fanon section on this wiki has gotten slightly out of hand. Therefore, staff has come up with a possible solution that would benefit both the fanon section and the canon part of the wiki: we plan to create a separate wiki. Now, that probably sounds rather radical, but it's not really as big of a deal as you might think at first. The new wiki would be closely affiliated to us, and would be monitored by staff members from this wiki. As I wrote before, this decision will have several benefits for all of us:

First of all, it would allow this wiki to become an actual encyclopedia again. Right now we are a somewhat awkward mix between encyclopedia and fan-service. When the fanon section was first organized, many preferred it being on a separate wiki, but it was eventually decided to do it here anyway. Since then there has often been confusion as to what is canon and what is not, even with the "ACFanon:" prefix.

Secondly, it would be beneficial for the fanons themselves as well. On the new wiki, we will be able to use all categories we want, since we won't have to distinguish between canonical articles and fanons. Thus it would be possible to categorize, for instance, in time periods, story types, and certain events. The new wiki will also make it easier for authors to collaborate on stories and have joined projects.

An important note is that none of the current fanons will be lost - everything will be transferred to the new wiki. You will not have any work with this, as I will handle the transfer, along with several other staff members. So you don't have to worry about losing all the hard work and time you put into your story, we won't just delete everything here.

Since this is a rather large decision, we're asking the community for their opinion. Please note that voting closes on March fifth, around noon.
