This was how I became an Admin on a couple wikis. I was constantly messaging the active Admins of pages and files to delete (there were so many on these wikis). We didn't have a forum and talk pages were for editing discussions but active discussions are important to keep the wiki flowing. As for those with different views, they must be able to have open and civil discussions of topics they might not agree with. Otherwise it's like talking to a rock.
