User blog:Opheuchus/FANDOM News - October 18, 2019

FANDOM has recently announced that they would remove article comments and replace them with a new system in early 2020. We do not know what that new system would be, if blog comments would be removed as de facto, or whether or not the comments before this update would be removed or not.

Why did I tell you about this? Because the comments are a core part of any wiki and it's ease of communication is truly a function that had been a part of our hearts for a long time, and FANDOM for some reason wants to destroy this for "something better". We want you to know about this, and maybe help us find solutions and word our statements to FANDOM. Whatever the end result would be, we will at least know that we've done our best to save a fundamental part of this community. Here is FANDOM's official announcement, so you can know exactly what I'm talking about: https://community.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:MisterWoodhouse/The_first_specifics_on_the_Unified_Community_Platform

Thank you for reading, and have a good day.
