Board Thread:New on Merlin Wiki/@comment-4623180-20140212175013/@comment-5102537-20140213093217

So far I haven't seen any changes in editing options. Yesterday I saw the option Classic Edit but it's gone now. Why and what exactly has changed?

I'm all for improvements but I'm not impressed by any complications following the improvements. But then, I haven't seen any changes anyway. Maybe it's just me and I've missed something?

I dont think that we currently need more admins. If there is somebody who has edited a lot and visits the site regularly in order to fix things or to contribute any valuable kind of information and help - and if this user knows how to use the admin privileges responsibly without abusing it - they will be welcome to join the admin team. As we know, there was quite a chaos at the time when users were being made admins almost every week (so to speak). This wiki isn't crowded anymore and I doubt that there will be a spin-off or something. In case that Merlin will continue someday, which is highly unlikely, time will tell if more admins are needed.

Aside from that, I don't agree with the changes on the homepage. Not so long ago we talked about reviving the Arena, alas we don't know how it works and are still waiting for Alfon's help. So once we know how the arena works we would like to use it again.

Moreover, the changes of the announcement for the forum discussions have turned the info about it into an assessable little note. That's not what we had in mind since the forum discussions are one of the things that currently keep this wikia going. So please change it back to its former state.

Don't get me wrong but I think it's not alright to come back after more than a year of inactivity to suddenly change such substantial things without discussing it first with those admins who have put some effort in their work.
