Hey Meighan, CC users, admins, and other staff,

I don't get it, I clearly don't.

Last week I messaged wikia about disabling the 'my favorite wikis' bar across the unofficial Roblox wiki. They said that they couldn't do that because it's a global feature. I remember when wikia was just a HOST of wikis, and didn't butt in on wikis. I remember when the default theme was monobook. Clearly, you guys need to be told that you are just staff, and that you guys should clearly allow us to disable or enable the new wikia theme, along with allowing us to disable or enable the 'my favorite wikis' bar.

These ideas like the 'my fav wikis' bar and the new wikia theme are great ideas, but you have to understand that they do not suite every wikis needs. For example, the 'my fav wikis' bar does not suite Roblox wiki because the general wikian that originates on Roblox wiki creates a wiki right away about Roblox, taking away from our wikis traffic, because their wiki is clearly displayed on their 'my fav wikis' bar. Why make advertisement of wikis easier than it needs to be? You got spotlights and a wikia bar that advertises wikis. Why make it necessary to force wikis to adapt to the 'my fav wikis' bar? It isn't needed. It should be optional, much like admins should be allowed to choose what theme their wiki should be (monobook or new wikia theme).

To sort this out into two sentences, 1/ You should make the 'my favorite wikis' bar optional, and put it under 'wiki features'. 2/ You should allow wiki admins to choose between monobook and new wikia theme.

I need a lot of peoples opinions here, so please reply soon. -Colgatecity
