User blog comment:Najevi/My wish list for blogs at Wikia/@comment-473563-20091106072448

Brandon, I really think you are overlooking the various forms of typos that can creep in when using such emphasis as
 * bold or italics,
 * internal and external links
 * numbered or bullet list
 * and then heaven forbid someone wishes to use a table to present their case!

The comment window is ridiculously small! If that is to encourage comments to be brief and twitter-like then I can live with that as a Wikia-wide implied policy regarding Blogs. Indeed, so long as you think of Blog comments as the equivalent of a twitter "tweet" then I absolutely agree with you.

However, if Blog comments are to be confined to mere tweets then Blogs at central.wikia.com are not appropriate for soliciting feedback on important Wikia-wide new features/changes/upgrades/policies. I am recalling Danny's attitude regarding keeping the Blog about My Home as the central gathering point for conversation/feedback. Given the volume of feedback generated that position seems ludicrous to me.


 * I don't think a reasonable person would agree that you can have well considered feedback effectively presented as plain text tweats.
