Here's a conversation I had on the IDW Hasbro wiki (http://idwhasbro.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Talk:G.I._Joe_(franchise)):

So, I get that 1. tfwiki.net is the sister site to this wiki, and 2. gijoe.wikia needs a lot of work, but why just links to TFwiki and Wikipedia? Instead of building out Joe information here, why don't we contribute to the existing Joe wiki and link back to that from here? What am I missing here?Ton Up (talk) 22:02, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Wikia's presentation format is absolute shit, hence why those of us affiliated with the TFWiki prefer to deal with it as little as possible. S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47 (talk) 23:08, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
 * We've also found that there are other resources with better presentation (and in many cases, actual info) that we can link out for a broader scope, like YoJoe.com. But I'm glad to see a Joe fan join our community. Looking forward to having you around. --DanielAdkins (talk) 00:07, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

I want Joe fans to own this community instead of letting other affiliated fans take care of it for us.


 * Hello. Your contributions look okay, although you haven't really edited content on the wiki since February, but there are quite a few other active contributors there.  Please create a blog or discussion thread about adopting the wiki and choosing new administrators.  Start editing the content on the wiki regularly as well, every day or two, and let me know on my wall to check back again after the post has been up for at least a week.  -- Wendy  (talk )  05:33, April 7, 2018 (UTC)


 * Wendy - Back in April, I created a blog, which has received no comments. I think, from personal experience, that wiki is (right now) a community of individuals who may be intimidated on where to start the thankless task of making contributions. Especially when compared with the 50+ years of real-world content associated with the brand. As an admin, one thing I would want to do is get the site mobile ready by curating content for the main mobile page. I believe it would enable more users to edit/create content. -- Paul (talk ) 20:17, July 2, 2018 (UTC)
