User blog comment:Sannse/Important Updates on Wikia’s New Look/@comment-129646-20100928210926

Well, there you go. 100 odd comments, mostly negative. Really, this should be telling you all you need to know - the community does not want it. The community - y'know, the actual users who produce the very content you're trying to showcase. The community, who are the actual users of this skin. The community, who are going to have to adapt to this. This is who you should be catering for. We're the ones who have to use it. Give us something good to work with, and let us worry about the readers. I think we have enough experience in that regard. I understand the need to generate revenue and appease advertisers, but several of the items you have declared off limits to change in your new terms of service do nothing are ludicrous.

Specifically: "It’s not permitted to remove [...] blogs, and image attribution"

Several wikis I am on have blogs currently either disabled by community vote, or restricted to certain content. I echo Darth Culator's statement below that I will continue to enforce these rules. Foisting them on wikis that have chosen to not use them is against the will of the community.

As for image attribution ... well, where do I begin? Forcing us to have an "Added by X" that we can't remove? Well, thanks for ruining the articles. Some of us produce our articles as "in-universe" works, and adding that just completely ruins the feel of the article. It's distracting to say the least, and the fact that it includes the user avatar image makes it worse. Furthermore, I would question the possible legality of attributing an image that - in the case of the Harry Potter Wiki for instance - is copyrighted to Warner Bros to an individual user. Surely, this would not be allowed under the current image usage guidelines?
