If you have been on the Community Central Wikia lately you will notice that they are changing how Wikia looks. And it's not just some optional thing, it's mandatory for everyone. There will not be an option to change back to Monaco, it's permanent. Now after all of almost every wikis' hard work in making a unique and cool custom skin, it's going down the drain and getting removed from existence. And the worst part is that they are acknowledging that nearly everyone who has commented on it hated it, and they do nothing about it!

Now I know that a regular non-admin user might not realize why I'm mad, because they have not done anything with MediaWiki and the skins. I personally have put over 10 hours in customizing the various Monaco skin features, and now they are going to be wasted! </rant>

Ok then, what do you all feel about the new skin change?

This sucks, especially since Greenpickle and Blueninjakoopa were testing out a sweet new skin for he Kirby Wikia. --User:Gamefreak75/Sig

Yeah, I know. I was going to maybe get a list of users on this wiki that didn't like the new Wikia style and then add them to the ever-growing list on the comments of the blog announcing it. Can I add you to my list?
Yes! --User:Gamefreak75/Sig

Count me in!!!

P.S.-Maybe we could bribe or torture convince one of the wikia staff members to keep ours, Pikipedia's and the Kirby Wiki's skin in the original Monaco style.

I sent the following message to wikia today. I will continue to message them every day and will post my messages on this forum once I have written them.

This is the first and most polite message, sent on August 25th:

I know that the members of Pikipedia (pikmin.wikia.com), the Pikmin Fanon Wiki (pikminfanon.wikia.com), the Kirby Wiki (kirby.wikia.com), and several other wikis would like to keep our Monaco skins. We are fully aware that certain members of the wikia staff are fully capable of allowing us this and we would really appreciate if you strongly considered our request. If you are not convinced we will send you a petition signed by a large number of users from these wikis and the ones listed below.

Other Wikis that would like to keep the Monaco skin:

  • pikminideas.wikia.com
  • swb.wikia.com

Several other wikis will probably want to do this as well, but remember, we took the trouble to email you and we will be persistent on this problem until it is solved.

Thank you for your compliance,

Volatile Dweevil

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)
