Thanks for the comment Devilmanozzy.

To give a bit more context, I've worked (and socialized) with online communities for 10+ years now and have seen many business online struggle with how to embrace their passionate users and include them in both product and policy development.

One way people who work in Internet companies share these best practices and have these conversations about how to do it better is at conferences like SXSW. I'm really excited by the conversations happening by those who run these business to try to figure out a better way.

Since Wikia provides space for passionate people to build their own communities online, this type of conversation seems particularly relevant!
