 * This sucks, especially since Greenpickle and Blueninjakoopa were testing out a sweet new skin for he Kirby Wikia. --


 * Yes! --

I give up... Wikia staff members ignore us... In my eyes, we have only two options now.


 * 1) Live with the new style (we could do this, albeit with much frustration)
 * 2) Relocate (this might not be such a bad idea, though, if wikia continues to make bad updates)
 * To do this we could set up our own independent wiki and join NIWA.


 * I do not think NIWa accepts fan-made wikis. --

My wiki is screwed Pikness34, . The Researcher Of Fate

I am convinced that the Wikia's advertising department is certain that their new format will be so inviting to new members that they could double their users overnight even if all the old members left. I doubt that their mind could be changed by mere "I'm leaving and everyone else will too!" --Yoshord 02:36, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

Contrarily, are you actually beta-testing right now? Have you seen this skin? Is it really so bad that you feel the need to mass-organize a revolt so that you won't need to spend another five hours modifying the new skin to have a grassy background? Is it in the slightest worth it? --Yoshord 03:34, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

First, you can obtain a backup of everything here. Second, no, every wiki can change their background, and everything else. --Yoshord 17:44, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

If we have to move can someone help me move my wiki please?

 * Just so you know me, I'm Axiomist of NIWA and owner of WiKirby. We got Peanut's email and I was looking around. Seems there's some confusion about NIWA. NIWA isn't anything like Wikia. We don't force anything on anyone, we just help each wiki figure out how to code up what THEY want. If you look around the NIWA wikis you'll notice there's hardly anything identical among each site. We love individuality and believe each wiki develops their own personality, style, and values. From my honest assessment of the situation you guys are in, I'd say to back up and export all of your files, get a working version of mediawiki installed, hosted, as quickly as possible, Wikia will change the skin, things may need extensive retuning to get a smooth look again. While the wiki is broken down, abandon it for the newly created working port of the wiki and enjoy the freedom from them forever!

This is the NIWA manifesto here you may find lines you agree with and even have suggestions for new ones. Axiomist 00:39, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
