GFDL wikis can be relicensed as CC-BY-SA, but not the other way around. Still, because of the random threats of legal action from TV Tropes I heard about, we're going to do this by the book. So we'll work from the archive, when it was split off, which is already in the right format.
Now, adding the Troper Tales back in the mix is something I can do. And since I'm still waiting on wiki software, and I think I've got all of the bugs worked out of the wikicode translator , I'll probably work on it tomorrow. Troper Tales probably would be good for the wiki, now that I think about it, in moving the community back in to the wikispace. Since we won't be having an integrated forum, the whole community will be in the wiki, which I hope will decrease fragmentation.
As for the Fetish Fuel namespace -- well, someone would have to give me a damn good argument that it's a good idea to bring that mass of crazy to a new site.
The general idea is to bring a lot more to TV Tropes on the technical side, like a GUI editor, multiple level namespaces ("Anime/Neon Genesis Evangelion/Characters"), full Unicode support, and better page histories (off the top of my head). On the community side, we obviously can't promise as many people will edit. But we will promise to actually inform people as to what's going on, and let people have a say in decisions that affect large amounts of the wiki's contents. And to be non-commercial and advertising free. So the idea is to try to be more than TV Tropes on as many levels as possible -- more features, more content, more inclusive.
Thanks for posting, Ferfer.
