Actually, there might be a problem after all. The current administrator on the wiki is... difficult to deal with. The founding principle of the Fanon wiki is not editing others’ articles, without their permission, unless they do not meet technical specifications, (categories, attribution, etc.)

Recently, there has been a great deal of editing by the administrator to reflect non-existent policies. Articles are renamed, categories added, enforcing of an imaginary style-guide. The experience of adding content to the wiki has become incredibly frustrating. Akin to the Japanese expression, "death by a thousand cuts."

I would understand if this were an informational wiki, but this is for people to add their fan fiction. Why would anyone need to find everything in the "character" category, when the policy only specifies you must add a category, not every single category which can possibly apply, ad nauseum.

If I remove these categories, and explain why they do not apply, I have my edits reverted without explanation. Articles are retitled without communication, and appeals go unanswered.

Instead of the intended democracy where users contribute, the administration of the wiki has taken the form of a unilateral dictatorship, where contributions of editors are not seen in good faith. This isn't Wookipedia, no one else can make these articles. This is entirely original content created by users, who are being harassed.

All attempts to communicate have been met with a variation of "this is how I do it" without written polices to support these actions.

I am saddened, and confused. Is this how Wikia is supposed to operate?
