I disagree. Just because a blog is written by the staff does not mean it is on topic. Kacieh's last blog is a good example. While it is about a wiki, it's specifically about the Glee Wiki. It has no value to Wikia as a whole. Were it on Glee Wiki, it would be much better received. The core reason why the forums are not to be used to advertise wikis is that the interests of the people on Central are so diverse, you aren't likely to find anyone interested in the same things you are, which just makes the advertisement annoying. Similarly, the blog about Glee Wiki is only valuable if you like Glee - and many people here probably don't. In fact, I'd say the majority don't care, considering that there was only one constructive comment, which was by an anon.

In short, staff blogs are off topic when they don't have a solid basis in Wikia as a whole, as opposed to just one specific sector of people.
