Should this really be a page? I mean... it's about a fansite... 50 pxNintendoLover is AWESOME! ^{You knew that!} 16:48, 21 November 2010 (EST)

I'm not entirely on board with this, but there is an ongoing project related to the creation of pages for fansites. --Jake 16:52, 21 November 2010 (EST)

Oops, didn't see your post Jake. Would this not be better as a template or something on the main page? I'm not sure a page would really work, as the articles should be more AC based rather than advertising space. Will check out the thread though. - MerrytonRyan 17:36, 21 November 2010 (EST)

That's fine. I've restored the article. I'm not sure if this deserves an article either. Maybe we should just consolidate all of them into one page? --Jake 17:40, 21 November 2010 (EST)

I think we should have this page, but it might cause issues. Other pages are more important (i.e. NES games). Super ^(duh...)Alpaca 17:43, 21 November 2010 (EST)

Only problem is you might get people with small fansites attempting to use a page like to for their websites - it might create a messy precedent :P Perhaps we should stick to "Official" sites and very popular sites? I'm sure we had a page of some sort for that already. The page would need to be locked to avoid random adds and edits though. - MerrytonRyan 17:46, 21 November 2010 (EST)

I recommended semi-protecting all of these fansite articles. Only auto-confirmed users would be able to edit them, effectively preventing advertising. What do you think? --Jake 17:49, 21 November 2010 (EST)

MR, this is a major site; Jake, users will still try to edit them, but it is the best we can do. Super ^(duh...)Alpaca 17:54, 21 November 2010 (EST)

Users can't edit them without a commitment to the site. That's the purpose of autoconfirmation and our patrolling team. I think we'll be fine. --Jake 17:59, 21 November 2010 (EST)

I do to, but these are still likely targets for spam/advertising. Super ^(duh...)Alpaca 18:07, 21 November 2010 (EST)
