Hey, Joe, if you look over at the Quorum, you'll see the discussion on how Sci-Fi's very own Wiki has been stealing some of their info from us here at Battlestar Wiki. --BklynBruzer 21:22, 24 October 2006 (CDT)
Hi again from Wikia
Hi Joe,
I saw the discussion about hosting, it sounds like you decided to try something else for now. Best of luck with the adbrite tools. If it is of any value, we'd be happy to discuss hosting you with the following if you ever change your mind
- Ads only on content pages for registered users (not on talk, history, edit, etc) if that makes the site cleaner and faster loading.
- Offering attribution, Youtube, easier photo uploading (try our image button), polling, mapping and a bunch of other extensions that have improved functionality
- Links from the wikia home page to help you grow
That said, I respect the desire to build what you have, so best of luck with a great site - I'm a fan of the show and of your work.
Gil @ Wikia
- Hi Gil! Thanks for your kind words! My team and I will look into the features you've mentioned above. You also mentioned something about a link from the Wikia home page. We can still do this, if you'd be willing. Basically, we would add you to our "Friends" box on our main page and you can link to us from the Wikia main page. Would this be feasible? Obviously, if something changes, I'll let you know. Thank you, again. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 10:24, 30 November 2006 (CST)
- Those are some really cool features, perhaps we could look into implementing a few of them here. I still have lots of concerns about moving to Wikia however, there would be a big increase in adverts on the whole wiki and of course if the site got popular enough to make a profit, you wouldn't see a penny of that Joe. I worry about the overall loss of control. The only real benefit is an already existing massive database of users already signed up and the advertising on a popular site. --Mercifull (Talk/Contribs) 11:40, 30 November 2006 (CST)
