All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part IV

[GethN7]

I'm not really involved in this, but I believe the general consensus from when the site design was being discussed was that "freeform discussion boards" were to discouraged on ATT. When compare/contrasted to TvT, I think it was pointed out the TvT Forums were felt as a negative influence on the site as a whole.

I'd have to go looking in past ATT Threads for specifics, but that is what I remember.

 

I remember that, which is why I suggested an offsite board. It will be managed by yours truly, but is merely another offsite outpost of ATT, not an entitiy unto itself.

Also, the board will still be for project related discussion, it just means people can do thing like post tons of images while discussing tropes without having to worry about wiki issues or image size limits.

Not to mention provides another outlet like our Twitter or subreddit to raise awareness of the wiki, or such is the proposed idea.
