User blog comment:Sannse/Your First Look at the New Wikia/@comment-103552-20100826052830

I agree with previous posts in that the major issue I have with this is not the design itself but the idea of having this change forced upon all wikians, especially if it is completely possible for the new and old to coexist. I haven't been active on wikia for some time, but I just had to voice my opinion here as it is the same one I had when an unpleasantly similar situation was happening on Halopedia some time ago. What's more, not only will control over design be lost but also over the user's experience if the toolbar is mandatory as well. I always appreciate efforts to make improvements, but for those who are happy with the way things are, why not give them that option? Also, I use wiki(a)s fairly often on my phone, and if this change is both global and compulsory, I feel it may even make the wikia experience worse for mobile visitors too, as they have smaller screens than it looks like this design is intended for, and may even be unable to load the pages to begin with.
