== The User Wiki == On ShoutWiki, I saw a user wiki whose pages are about to be moved to this wiki. I have some concerns that we are slowly getting closer to being The Outcast Network 2.0 given the Qualitipedia page that openly criticizes users. [[user:Szczypak2005|Szczypak]] [[user talk:Szczypak2005|2005]] 16:45, Febuary 07 2022 (GMT+2) :Do you mean [http://usersvarious.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Main_Page this wiki]? If so, then I ''de facto'' archived that wiki (I can't prevent people from editing or creating pages, as I don't have any advanced powers there), encouraging any visitors of that wiki to visit this wiki. As for the content itself, none of its pages with any substance (exactly three) are eligible to be moved here, since this wiki's focus on users is limited to users with a significant wiki presence: :*'''[http://usersvarious.shoutwiki.com/wiki/CircleyDoesExtracter CircleyDoesExtracter] and [http://usersvarious.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Life_Tutor Life_Tutor]:''' Belong on [https://astonishingscratchers.miraheze.org/ Astonishing Scratchers Wiki] (although Life_Tutor's page on there was protected from creation for unknown reasons by the owner of that wiki and CircleyDoesExtracter is already on there as TPRisesAgain). While CircleyDoesExtracter's page mentions his Miraheze account, it mostly focuses on his Scratch presence. :*'''[http://usersvarious.shoutwiki.com/wiki/YiguirroRyuKyu YiguirroRyuKyu]:''' DeviantArt user with no known wiki presence. Having the article of this user here would be like having a sedan in the middle of a cornfield. :As for the Outcast Network, it was a group of wikis that focused on criticizing/praising people and groups. This wiki and Tiresome Wikis Wiki are far from being the next Unfavorable and Incredible Wikis and Users Wiki. To start off, TWW has better sourcing and more balanced content than UWAUW ever did before its closure. Additionally, users are banned on TWW (which is actually not my decision; it was the decision of the founder of that wiki, GilesDonor, who went inactive over two years ago). This is because articles criticizing users are likely to cause unnecessary drama because of the possibility that the user being criticized discovers the article made about them. However, if there's ever interest in having articles criticizing users, then a plan could be made to create another wiki focusing on criticizing users (here on EditThis.info, since I've basically given up hope that ShoutWiki will have its wiki creator up and running again within our lifetimes; ShoutWiki's staff have confirmed that the underlying issues with it have been fixed, but it won't be available until ShoutWiki upgrades to 1.35. I love losing the ability to easily add external links and upload images to not have to wait for an upgrade that's taking exponentially longer than it should). Plans could be made to have the wiki exist separately from TWW for some time, preferably 2-3 months, and then merge it into TWW. The only problem with that plan is that I can't import the dump of the hypothetical bad user wiki myself; ShoutWiki disabled imports for anyone but their staff. Apparently, people were importing entire Wikipedia dumps into their ShoutWiki wikis (which raises the question, why? Why would you do that? Wikipedia dumps are gigabytes in size, surely you realize that it would take at least 2 weeks to import?), but there are plans for an import queue. And three years later, it's still nonexistent. :There are basically no other revivals of the Outcast Network wikis (Atrocious YouTubers Wiki, Horrible Vyonders Wiki, Awful Twitter Users Wiki, and Toxic Fandoms and Hatedoms Wiki)...well, besides [https://editthis.info/toxic_fandoms_wiki/Main_Page this Toxic Fandoms and Hatedoms Wiki revival] I made as a test to see if you could create a wiki on EditThis.info while logged out (turns out that you can). Anyway, any revivals that may exist are not organized as a group, so they're not technically a network. If either TWW and/or this wiki ever get deleted for any reason, then I have plans to revive them elsewhere. In fact, I'm planning to move CWW somewhere else soon, since I can't take EditThis.info anymore. [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] 00:20, 8 February 2023 (UTC) ::So will it be possible to create user pages on this wiki or will it be the same as on the sister wiki? [[user:Szczypak2005|Szczypak]] [[user talk:Szczypak2005|2005]] 16:23, Febuary 12 2023 (GMT+2) :::You can add user pages here, but please don't create pages on yourself. [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] ([[User talk:Tali64^2|talk]]) 18:40, 12 February 2023 (UTC) ::::And what's wrong with someone creating a page about themselves? Even if I'm 100% honest, I still can't create about myself? [[user:Szczypak2005|Szczypak]] [[user talk:Szczypak2005|2005]] 15:22, Febuary 13 2023 (GMT+2) :::::People creating pages on themselves tends to lead to this wiki being more biased than if they couldn't, like what happened with [https://web.archive.org/web/20200906200340/https://incrediblewikisandusers.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_Page Incredible Wikis and Users Wiki].
