At this point, I would say that the parameters for the Official DISCORD offset much of my concern with the medium itself as they are reasonable and appropriate, with safeguards in place against abuse, private cliques and non-wiki business. So...once operational, what happens to private servers currently in operation? Can a wiki request that such servers be removed in favor of the Official DISCORD? This would be done with appropriate notification to the community about the new server and the reason for its implementation, of course. I ask because a private DISCORD server running alongside the official server defeats the purpose of the official version, does it not? There shouldn't be any qualms about sharing Wiki/DISCORD IDs for a legit editor. Sock-puppets are bound to be created, but at least their activity will be monitored.

Also...the only question that wasn't answered: When will this be implemented? Any idea?

Thank you for your timely responses.
