Yeah, there's no real "thesis" to this post. I think that it's trying to convince us that the "wordpress/facebook mashup" skin is a good thing for the community.

Unfortunately, if this is the case, it falls flat on it's face. Yeah, some people use Wikia to create things that aren't really encyclopedias or reference documents. Then again, some of us DO, and would be better served by a fairly plain, non-gimmicky skin (like *gasp* monobook!)
