I am the admin and main editor on a wikia and hardly ever use search. This adds no benefit to me while its size takes away a lot of my screen from editing. The new bar should have an option to turn it off and inform users they can turn it back on in settings. I am seriously considering moving our wikia if this is not fixed.

If wikia really wants to modernize, why not build in some sort of database functionality, or something else content related?
