Forum:What do you do if a Wikia site creator or Admin are making it so yourself and several other users cannot add helpful content?

I've been to quite a few different wikia pages and sometimes the Admins or site creator are kind of jerks. They will undo your edits because they like a page their way (despite several users trying to change the page to a more universally helpful method). When their main page has code errors to where Internet Explorer and Firefox won't read the page right, but Chrome will, they will ignore your comment or delete it from their talk page.

What can I, as a user, do in that situation? This isn't an isolated incident (as I said before, this has happened on a few wikia sites). I generally stop using the wiki in that case, and also quit the game since it's demoralizing. But is there anything else that can be done?Кэне _零三 17:07, May 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * You can try Special:Contact.--
 * That's incredibly frustrating, I've seen a couple of wikis that do that. Remeber that wikis are built on open content grounds, and you always have the option of importing all the pages from one wiki to another one, essentially "forking" the content - but this takes time and effort, that you probably don't want to do.
 * Wikia likes to give communities the final say in decisions like this, so some wikis do get stuck in their ways like this, if you're not wanting to fork the wiki, then it comes down to communication of your point, try and explain why changing will be better for their wiki, and hope that someone will listen  Random Time  17:15, May 13, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm not a fan of admins forcing their views on an entire wiki, but there are times that a change has been previously discussed and rejected, thus making it justified to undo certain edits that are not necessarily bad edits, but are contradicting the previously established consensus. There are also situations that some edits might cause inconsistencies among articles or disrupt article structure and, for example, a DPL summary page. Such situations are can explain why some good edits get undone.


 * While admins shouldn't solely dictate what's going on on the wiki, they should take a stand when an agreement can't be reached, as they usually have a better idea about how the wiki is structured. Before jumping to conclusions and deciding to fork or to report via Special:Contact, it's good to get a full picture first. — Sovq 18:21, May 13, 2011 (UTC)
