Hey everyone!

There's been a HUGE outcry from the ensemble stars community to remove the head admin from it's wikia. You can read more about it here, but tl;dr he's basically inactive, but comes back to change the pronouns of a trans girl to he/him.

The character in question, Arashi Narukami, uses the female-exclusive pronoun "atashi" and has asked to be seen as a woman over the last few years of content. This gives these actions very transphobic connotations, and it means he's using his admin powers to directly censor canon material, against the will of the community.

I only lurk on the ensemble stars wikia, but I'm not alone in not wanting him gone. I know I'm not alone, because there's a poll running on the ensemble stars wikia with over 3000 people in favor of removing KazuGami, and only 60 in favor of keeping him.

The ensemble stars wikia has been an amazing resource for the game and the community - everyone I know who plays uses it. It provides guides on how to play, a centralized source for translations, and it's clear how much effort has been put in by the people who really do love and care about this game. I would hate for that hard work to go to waste because of one bad, mostly inactive admin.

Wikia is really awesome because it provides a community for people to educate and share their love for a fandom. It provides a hub for everyone to learn about it. An admin who no longer cares about a fandom, but abuses their power to censor canon information about it is the antithesis of what makes wikia so cool.

The ensemble stars community needs KazuGami to lose his beauracrat status on our wikia.

Thank you for reading!
