I know from first hand experience that we are turning casual fans into bigger fans, into big fans that want to be involved, into big fans who want to be involved into actually learning and contributing to the wiki.

If any of you are not experiencing this, it's completely on you for not having a strategy.

I keep reading comments that portray many of you as cliques. What the heck is wrong with a growing community all made up of different types of fans? We don't need to be so exclusive where we push fans away just because they aren't interested in wiki editing. That's incredibly selfish and snobby. What we are seeing, because we have a policy of inclusion, is a community that wants to contribute in whatever way they feel comfortable and excited about.

Every single post I see here that dismisses casual fans here is missing out on a valuable opportunity.
