User blog comment:Dopp/New Profile Design Now Live Across All Wikis/@comment-242973-20110820172805/@comment-1025281-20110821115058

I'm not sure there is clear evidence that social networking features discourage shared content contribution and editing either. After the introduction of a myriad number of social features on Avatar Wiki, I'm yet to see anyone who began with comments and user profile edits not eventually become a content builder. One example is now a highly respected bureaucrat. Another is responsible for almost single-handedly maintaining dozens of our articles relating to the film adaptation released last year.
