User blog comment:Sannse/Your First Look at the New Wikia/@comment-1248963-20100925070836

This is a disaster. The sidebar is gigantic, the space for the actual ARTICLE (excuse me, I thought wikis were about articles and information, not a social network) is horribly reduced. Articles with character profiles, infoboxes, pictures, etc will be severely affected in their organization and aesthetics by this monstruos and absolutely useless sidebar. And placing it in the right was not the brightest thing to do either.

I also see no use in adding the uploader name at the bottom of every picture. I thought Wikis were a Community about group work, not individuals signing their names in articles. It's ridiculous and adds nothing to the article itself. What purpose does it serve to know, if I want to know about the Venus Fly Trap, that the picture was uploaded by whoever it was? I'm learning nothing at all. And some users have gigantic names, or names in All-Caps, or things like "xhdvhskaigl" that will look oh-so-lovely in the articles. It's absurd at best.
